By Monday morning, Luke was itching to see Reid again. They had been in contact via texting and brief phone conversations but it didn't feel real enough without being able to touch Reid. He practically ran into school, not even bothering to stop by the common room and talk to his friends. He sprinted to Reid's office and knocked on the door.

He heard muffled voices and then Reid called for him to come in so he opened the door. He saw him sitting on one of the wooden chairs with Katie on the other. The sounded like they were discussing something
serious. Probably the fridge situation.

'Hi, I need to talk to you about the homework, Dr Oliver.' Luke smiled and Reid looked knowingly at him.
'I'd better go anyway. Bye, boys.' Katie called as she left. The moment the door was shut Luke and Reid had their arms wrapped tightly around each other, kissing passionately.

'God, I've missed you.' Reid murmured into Luke's neck as the younger man moaned.
'It's only been a couple of days.' Luke said as Reid moved to the other side of Luke's neck.
'Still.' Luke felt under Reid's shirt and was about to take it off when Reid's hand stopped him. 'We can't have sex in here, Luke!'
'Why not?' Luke pouted.
'Because you've got to go in five minutes.' Luke's lips formed an 'O' shape in realisation.

Reid kissed him again and pushed him against the wall fumbling with Luke's belt buckle.
'I thought you said we weren't going to have sex.' Luke said between gasps.
'I never said I couldn't get you off.' He pulled Luke's jeans down to release a pronounced bulge beneath his black underwear. Reid shot to his knees and began mouthing the material enjoying the sight
of Luke losing himself above.

His hands were grasping at Reid's hair and his hips were bucking wildly. Reid pulled down the material and immediately took all of Luke inside his mouth. Luke groaned and wouldn't have stayed upright had Reid's hands not been fixed into Luke's hips.

Reid moved his tongue in circular patterns as he focused his mouth on pumping up and down Luke. He looked up to see the younger man's head thrown back, his hands now clawing the wall, chipping the white paint
off it.

'Reid,' Luke managed to grunt as a warning and suddenly Reid's mouth was being filled. He swallowed it all and softly kissed Luke's hip.

'God, that was incredible. But you didn't get off. Do you want me to help out?' Luke smiled naughtily but Reid shook his head.

'Of course I got off. What man couldn't come at the sight of you in the throws of passion?' Reid said as he cleared them both up. Luke blushed and kissed Reid softly revelling in the taste of him lingering on Reid's lips.

'I'm late. I'll see you later?' Luke asked.
'Yeah. We'll find a way. I've got you for Biology later anyway.' Reid kissed him and Luke left the office with a slightly dazed expression on his face.

The rest of the day was uneventful except for when Henry came into work dressed in drag because of the school play, causing the entire staffroom to erupt in laughter. Katie was still suspicious that there
was something going on with Reid. He was smiling, laughing and talking with the rest of the staff. He was being human and it scared her.

'Reid?' She asked him at lunch while they were alone in their corner of the staffroom.
'Yeah?' Reid said, muffled behind a giant sandwich.
'Are you seeing anyone at the moment?' Reid almost choked on his sandwich. He felt the familiar fear grip his stomach.
'Why do you ask?' He tried to ask nonchalantly.
'Because you seem so damn happy and it's… unusual.'
'Unusual?'
'Well, Reid. Come on, you're not exactly the most jolly man in the world. But recently you've been acting like a... human being. What's going on?'
'Nothing! Honestly, can't I just be happy?'
'No.' She huffed. 'I thought we were friends.'
'We are!' Reid exclaimed.
'Friends tell each other things!' She shouted.
'There's nothing to tell, Katie. Honestly. Now I'd better get to my next lesson.' He checked his watch and practically ran out of the room.

Luke and Reid were lying horizontally on the couch in Reid's office. Reid's legs were wrapped loosely beside Luke's hips and Luke was leaning against Reid's chest, enjoying the feeling of Reid's heart
pumping on his back.

One of Reid's hands was absent-mindedly playing with Luke's blonde strands and the other was holding up one of his student's papers in front of him, to Luke's left.

'Reid?' Luke asked.
'Uh-huh? Mark that one a C.' Luke picked up the marker that was lying on his thighs and put a C at the top of the page. Reid bent down and picked up another paper.
'How are we going to stay together?'
'With frequent sex and less frequent use of terms of endearment.'
'Reid.'
'That one a B.' Reid sighed and watched Luke mark the paper. 'I don't know, Luke. It seems to be working out okay at the moment. Just as long as your mother never finds out. And the school. And anyone who will tell your mother or the school. That does restrict us a little bit, actually.'

Luke leant his head back to lie in the crook of Reid's neck.
'What if I want to show you off?'
'You can't. I would get fired and I need the job, Luke.' Reid said softly as he kissed Luke on the cheek. Luke closed his eyes and Reid continued to stroke his hair slowly.
'That feels good.' He murmured.
'I know something else that feels good.' Reid said as he dropped the paper he was reading and jumped on top of Luke, kissing him hard.
'You've already had enough power over me today. It's my turn.' Luke almost purred.
He flipped them over and took off his shirt. Reid ran his hands up and down Luke's chest paying special attention to his nipples. Luke groaned and caught Reid's hands and held them above his head.
'What are you going to do with me now?' Reid asked, breathing heavily.
Luke took Reid's bottom lip into his mouth and sucked and nibbled at it.
'I've got some ideas.' He grinned as he leant down and kissed Reid as passionately as he had for their first kiss. He let go of Reid's hands and they clutched around Luke's back, desperate to pull himself closer to the younger man.

They moaned in unison and began rocking against one another, wanting more friction. Then the door swung open and Katie Snyder stood there her eyebrows half way up her forehead and her mouth open in the most
impressive shocked face Reid had ever seen. They both looked over at her with their arms still wrapped tightly around one another, their lips, kiss-bruised and legs tangled together.

'Oh my god!'
