Luke woke up with a ray of sunshine that glistened through the window curtains facing his bed. He finally overcame his insomnia that only came shortly before morning.
He rose, slowly and sluggishly made his way to the bathroom. He looked in the mirror and was not surprised to discover bags under his eyes. He washed his face, trying to wash away the weariness. With no luck, he took a shower and got dressed. He made his way downstairs to the kitchen, smelling the fried eggs and bacon being cooked.
"Hey" Holden said with a warm smile. "mmmm, smells good, Dad" Luke said bending over the counter and rested his chin in his hand.
Holden notice the weary look on his face. "You look tired, didn't get any sleep?"
"No, I was up looking over some business proposals for the company "Luke said. If only that was the real reason, he thought.
"Making some eggs and bacon for me and Ethan, he's in the play room" Holden said, adding the bacons in to fry.
Looking around, with his hand on his chin he asked. "Where's mom and faith?"
"Your mom had some business to take care of and Faith, I think she's still sleeping" He smiled.
There was an awkward silence between the both of them, as if one or the other wanted to ask something. So much had been happening in the household and between the both of them. Being the older person, he began to speak.
"You okay son?" Holden said. Looking at Luke, Holden decided to say his concern. "I know we haven't sat down and talked in a while but you know if there's anything bothering you…"He said, Looking at Luke with questioning eyes. "Maybe a particular person perhaps…" his father hinted.
Looking at his father, he knew his mom had been talking to his father about his particular interest.
"Mom told you." He stated. He was not surprised, his family was known for butting into people business or talking about what's going on in his or anyone else's lives.
"Well, she didn't give me any details, she just said... you know... you had a certain interest in someone…" He said, offering him a plate. "No thanks, I'm not hungry" Trying to change the topic and held his share of concern. "How are you and Molly?"
"We're having some – issues but nothing too big, I don't think we can't work out"
"Ah…" His only notion and moved around the counter and open the fridge, pulling out a bottle of water.
Sharing the dish out and putting the pot in the sink Holden decided to ask. "How are you and Noah, I know you're not together but have you guys spoken?"
"Ugh, yea we sure have" Luke said mockingly, pulling the cap off, he took a sip of his water.
"You guys argued or something…" He dared to ask. "Was it about… that guy?" He said as his son took a long gulp of the bottle as if to pine for his sudden starch of thirst, using his hand to wipe his mouth. Luke wasn't in the mood to be having a reminder or to talk it out with his father about his Guy drama.
"Honestly. Dad, I don't really want to talk about it "He said disgruntled. It had been almost a week since he spoken or seen the haughty surgeon, he wasn't about to start getting more depressed about it now. Maybe he just wasn't ready to face it.
"Okay….well whenever you wanna just talk" He smiled. "Maybe go see a cub's game this weekend, take Ethan along; He hasn't seen you a lot nowadays"
"Yea, we could do that" Taking another sip. "I'm gonna head out now, I have some papers to sign and some business to discuss with some dealers down the dock" He said making his way back to his room.
"Alright see you later Son" Holden said as Ethan ran in sitting around the table waiting for his eggs and bacon.
It was after six now. It had been a long day. Luke decided to retire for the day, with not much other business to attend to, even the foundation, which was his. One of the best benefits of owning your own company is you could leave for home whenever you like. On his way back, He was certainly feeling the effects of lack of sleep. He had fought it for six hours, In between dowsing off and now it was winning. Driving through Oakdale, He decided to stop by Java for their special latte. He parked his car, and began walking towards Java, when he suddenly stopped in his tracks. The Auburn hair man that haunted his dreams stood in from of him.
They stood there, as if time froze. Staring at each other, a sense of guilt washed over Luke, yet at the same time seeing him, he felt... happy? He stared at him with tired eyes, in his normal attire, a suit he usually wears with short shirt inside.
Both men felt the awkwardness between them. He stood there gazing at those deep brown eyes and pouty lips. He couldn't help it, Luke seem to have that effect on him. Reid was the first one to shrug it off, looking away and walking pass the blond man when he felt him grab his arm. "Reid, wait,"
"For what Luke?" He said tiredly and turned to face him, he didn't care much of younger man's plea but maybe he just wanted to reason to stay longer?
"I've been trying to call you" Luke said." You haven't answered any of my calls"
"Well, the intention was to ignore you completely, which you're keeping me from doing now." he said coldly and glared.
"Please don't be like that"
"Like what?"
"I shouldn't have said that, that night"
"It was the truth, wasn't it" He stated. "I'm not at your convenience, Luke, sorry if I don't want to be your boy toy while you run off try to figure out your problems with Noah"
"No"
"So, what am I suppose to do exactly? "
"No it's-" He let out exasperated sigh; He felt shot down every time he tried to say something.
"I'm… just trying to work this all out"
"Well, that's good for you" sarcasm rolled off his tongue and did a condescending smile before walking off, but Luke blocked him. " please, that's not what I meant,"
"I do like you Reid, but I feel so confused right now, I like being around you but I'm trying to figure out what this is…" He wasn't sure if he was making any sense at the point.
Reid just watched him in silence. He found himself gazing into those captivating in his deep brown, puppy eyes of the younger man. He couldn't help himself. Seeing Luke in distress or in any pain for that matter pulled strings in him, in ways he hadn't felt since forever.
He watched as older man in front of him took one step closer. He felt Reid's hand touched his, softly, running his fingers in the palm of his hand and before entwining their fingers together and looking into his brown eyes. Neither one of them spoke. It was only a few minutes, but it spoke volumes.
So caught up in the moment, they didn't realize the Dark hair man that was watching intently at them, three feet away. When Luke finally glimpses Noah looking at them in disgust, before storming off. He abruptly pulled his hand away from Reid and stepped away. Realizing his reaction, He turned to see Reid stepped back and his face hard as stone. Placing his mask on again, he turned, walking away in the distance leaving Luke in middle of the cold, lonely, streets of Oakdale.
