The game continued, kisses interspersed with the occasional provocative comment that only made them long for each other more. They weren't stationary for long, stumbling back a bit and laughing between kisses. The ease between them was almost startling, but then again, was it really? Even when they had completely detested each other they had never apologized for who they were or shied away. The only difference now was that a different side of them was in control, and just as before, they weren't afraid to show it.
As they continued their little dance through the living room, trying not to break anything, there was an obvious power struggle as both men yearned to be in control, but that struggle appears to be part of the intrigue as well. Even when they would break apart long enough to voice their amusement, typically in laughter as fewer and fewer words were necessary, it wasn't for long before one, if not both of them, was overcome with the urge to claim the others mouth again. The only time they broke apart for more than few seconds was when Luke tripped on the remote, causing them to nearly topple over. They somehow managed to keep their balance, Reid's arms automatically encircling Luke's waist to help hold him up. Grinning at each other, Reid, tenderly place one hand on Luke's cheek, rubbing his thumb over his ivory skin.
"How about we move this to somewhere less hazardous? I think that bear is out to get us," Reid joked, referring to one of Jacob's toys on the floor. Luke laughed along, though there was a slight tension in his voice that he couldn't hide. Reid caught it but tried not to focus on it, holding the younger man easily and brushing his hair out of his face, trying not to show how anxious he truly was. Luke bit his bottom lip, staring up at Reid's calm face, and nodded.
"Yeah, that's probably a good idea," he said in a voice hardly louder than a whisper. Reid couldn't help but smile brightly, his hand twisting behind Luke's neck and pulling their faces close for a gentle kiss before dropping both arms and taking Luke's hand. He watched Luke's face, trying to read him well enough to know how far this was going to go, but honestly, he had no idea. Trying not to worry too much about it right now, for that would just ruin the moment, Reid carefully led Luke down the hall and toward his bedroom. Luke followed closely behind, tightly gripping Reid's hand and shoving away the butterflies attacking the walls of his stomach.
Reid's room was just as Luke would have pictured it; simple, mostly clean, and well, rather boring. The décor, though, was hardly worth his attention. Reid released Luke's hand long enough to move past him to shut the door before turning to face him, both of them standing there with heated anticipation. Reid stepped forward, taking Luke's hand again and bracing his other hand against Luke's toned waist. Luke felt himself shiver, a reaction that made Reid grin. He allowed Luke to hesitate for only a moment before acting. arm snaking behind the blond's back and pulling him tightly against him. He didn't kiss him just yet, only staring him down with uncontrollable interest. The lack of distance was too much for Luke, and finally he broke down again, linking his arms around Reid's neck and kissing him hard on the mouth.
As before, things began to steam quickly. Luke could feel Reid's hand running all over his body, causing him to ache for more. He moaned softly into the kiss as Reid's hands brushed his hip, which only seemed to encourage the older man more. His hands traveled to the front of Luke's shirt, frantically unbuttoning it. Once each button had come undone he slowly pushed the fabric away, revealing Luke's bare chest. Reid broke the kiss, leaning back so he could look Luke over completely, and couldn't help but smile at what he saw. His eyes wandered back up to Luke's face and he continued to slowly push the shirt away, revealing Luke's shoulders one by one. Reid leaned in and kisses the soft skin of his left shoulder, lips traveling like feathers over his collar bone, up his neck, jaw line, cheek, and eventually claiming his mouth again. Now he finally forced the shirt away from Luke completely. His hands explored Luke's skin, grazing over his chest and bare back. His heart raced even harder than before and he could feel Luke's doing the same. Again Luke couldn't keep from shivering at the doctor's surprisingly gentle touch, eyes falling shut as he suppressed another moan.
It was Luke's turn now and he pulled mercilessly at the simple t-shirt trapping Reid's torso. Reid was more than happy to help, stepping back and raising his arms as Luke tugged the shirt up and over his head. Like Reid, Luke couldn't help but admire the man before him, fingers tracing the lines of his muscles and waist, nails dragging over his skin. Reid's eyes fell shut, his jaw clenched, but a soft sound still emanated from his mouth that drove Luke absolutely crazy. It thrilled him to be able to produce such a reaction from Reid Oliver. He could feel his pants grow tighter, grateful that he was in less-obvious jeans versus dress pants, though a part of him knew it didn't really matter. At this rate they wouldn't be on much longer anyway.
The kissing continued, hot and wet and desperately deep. They ended up stumbling a few more times across the room before Luke's legs finally hit the edge of the bed. They exchanged a daring look, panting from the lack of oxygen. There was a look of certainty on both of their faces and neither had to say anything to understand. It wasn't quite clear which initiated the kiss again, but that didn't matt. Reid leaned over Luke, one hand supporting his back and the other braced against the bed, lowing them both down. Once his back was to the blankets, Luke pulled himself further in the bed, Reid crawling over him at the same pace, never breaking their kiss.
There were no words to describe how Luke felt in that moment as Reid lay overtop of him, their bare chests pressed together almost as tightly as their mouths. Luke pulled at Reid's thin waist, urging him closer, which Reid was more than happy to do. He place a hand on Luke's bare waist, applying a slight pressure as he continued to hold himself up with his other hand. Nudging Luke's legs apart with his own leg, Reid suggestively pressed his knee against Luke, driving the blond absolutely crazy. He moaned, breaking the kiss, and Reid then turned his lips back to Luke's neck and shoulders. Luke's hands trailed to hold onto Reid's hips. The majority of his hands were on the denim of his pants, but his thumbs brushed the cool skin just above his belt. Reid groaned against Luke's neck, egging Luke on; his hands fumbled for the clasp of Reid belt.
He finally had it undone, but as fate would have it, the sound of a phone going off broke through the near silence, causing them both to jump.
Reid pulled back, staring down at Luke for a moment. Luke, who looked completely startled, wriggled a bit and pulled his phone from his back pocket. He frowned, glanced up at Reid, who understood and moved away, allowing Luke to get up from the bed.
He didn't ask if it was about Noah, partly because he knew that if it was his beeper would have already gone off, but mostly because he didn't think he could stand to say the other boy's name while they were like this. He sat up, ran a hand through his damp hair, and pulled himself to the end of the bed, legs dangling over the side. He watched Luke standing across the room and staring at his phone. The blond snapped the phone shut and dropped it onto the desk, turning back to him and shaking his head.
"No, it was just my mom. She wanted to make sure I was okay," he said, nervously scratching his ear.
Silence filled the air and it was full of awkwardness, which seemed to surprise both of them. Luke stood nervously, glancing away from Reid every now and then. Reid sensed his concern and tried to smile.
"Come here," he said, patting the bed beside him. Luke obliged and came over, sitting down close. Reid wrapped his arm around the boy's waist and Luke fell into him, resting his head against Reid's strong shoulder.
"Maybe that interruption was a good thing," Reid said, his usual chipper tone managing to appear. He felt Luke laugh a little and smiled, running a hand through the blonde's hair.
"Yeah, it probably was," Luke said, still at peace just leaning against Reid. Reid could feel that he was still tense, though. He shifted, pulling away a bit but still managing to keep a hand on Luke. He scooted back toward the backboard of his bed, pulling Luke along with him. They moved together and readjusted themselves so that Reid was slouching against a pillow propped against the backboard, Luke laying against his chest. They wrapped their arms around each other and Luke felt his eyelids grow heavy. He didn't feel like fighting it and so he gave in to the exhaustion that had been plaguing him all day. Reid continued to stroke Luke's hair, finding comfort in the simple motion. He smiled as Luke's breathing began to slow, glancing down to see the boy's eyes were closed, mouth slightly open as sleep claimed him. Reid leaned down and kissed the top of his head before leaning it back against the backboard. He sighed a mixture of uncertainty and ease. He knew that things had only grown to be even more complicated than before. Reid let his own eyes finally fall shut, deciding that they would deal with the consequences, but he was finally overwhelmed with a sense of peace with the blond sleeping against him, and he wasn't stupid enough to let that go so soon.
