Chapter 24
Reid was feeling emotions, that he has not felt in so long. He went to move but Luke touched his chest making him stop.
"Luke what are you doing"?
"I know you don't want to get involved, but I know you want me as much as I want you"
"What you want sex, and than what we have to work together, and feel awkward every time we are together"
"You think I just want sex I'm not a one night stand type of guy."
"I didn't mean that I know you are a great guy but this will change everything, and you know it"
"Who cares it might change for the better"
"Luke you are to much but you are driving me crazy right now"
"I can see that do you want me to leave"?
Reid didn't know what to say part of him wanted to grab him, and kiss him, and make love right here, and right now. The other part of him was thinking you make love to your Manager, and everything will change, and he didn't want that either. He knew he was lonely, and up until Luke arrived he was OK with that. He has been fighting his feeling all week, and now Luke standing before him looking all wet, and adorable with turning him on, and he knew he better run, and say this is a bad idea, or go with what his heart was feeling, and see where this was going to take him. He was about to grab Luke's face, and kiss him, but Luke walked out of the stall.
"Fine you don't want me I get it. Lock up after you leave Ben is gone, I'm leaving too"
Luke grabbed a towel drying his face, he was all wet, and didn't have a spare outfit to wear. Reid was hurt, and angry that Luke didn't give him a chance to speak. He got out of the shower, and walked over grabbing Luke's arm.
"Leave Luke you think I'm a hot head what was that in there. You come in while I'm taking a shower, and get me all worked up, and storm out like you have been hurt. I was about to give us a chance but thank you for showing me just what kind of immature baby you are"
"You were going to give us a chance"?
"Yes but go Luke I'm tired just go please"
Reid grabbed a towel, Luke was shaking not because he was cold from being soaking wet it was because he was a fool. He has always been a person that loved to hard, but got his feelings hurt easily. He knew Reid was fighting his feelings, and he knew he was pushing him so he had no right to treat him that way. He couldn't walk away now not like this.
Reid was facing his locker when Luke walked up behind him, and pulled Reid's towel away from him. Reid turned he was angry, but Luke smiled, and whispered, "You have to give me another chance Reid"
"Hell no give me the towel"
"Come, and get it from me"
"Luke enough with the games give me the towel now"
"Reid I'm sorry please don't push me away"
Reid walked over, and Luke threw the towel, Reid just stared into his eyes. Luke moved close as he touched Reid on the chest, and whispered, "Give me another chance, you could have got a another towel, you are standing here in front of me, because you want me , and you know it."
Reid was silent he was staring , and Luke could not read his expression he didn't know if Reid was going to kiss him, or punch him but at this moment, he just wanted Reid to say something.
