( Chapter 19. )
OMG you're so mean.
The day after this intense conversation is Matt's surgery. Reid turns on his side and sees Luke's eyes already open, one hand resting on his chest, and the other arm at his side. Reid takes in a deep breath and tucks his hands underneath his pillow as he watches him.
"Hey," Luke greets him with a small smile. "Sorry, did I wake you?"
Reid shakes his head. "Been up long?"
"Not too long," Luke mirrors Reid's position, turning to rest on his stomach, and placing a hand against Reid's warm back. "Last night was ..." he trails, searching for the right words.
Reid thinks that he knows what these words are. Luke poured out everything last night. Allowing Reid to see that much of himself left him vulnerable and Reid took care of him as much as he could when they had sex, making sure Luke knew that he hadn't made the wrong decision in trusting him with that information.
"Your poured your guts out, Dr. Snyder," Reid finishes for him.
Luke chuckles, "Something like that, yeah." His hand slides up Reid's back and moves to play with his hair that curls at the nape of his neck. "Are you freaked out at all?"
They've been together for almost six months now. He remembers spending most of those first two months freaked out by how deeply and how quickly he'd fallen for Luke Snyder. But, this? "Nope," he answers quickly.
Siiiiiiiigh. ILU. :X:X:X
