Chapter 32

Luke couldn’t believe what he was hearing. His mother wanted him to hook up with some random girl just so he could look heterosexual. Even if he was straight, he wouldn’t want to use somebody like that.

“Mom, no.” He said, his hands coming up defensively. “I really don’t want to start dating some poor girl. That’s the opposite of what ( Read more... )

Chapter 22

Reid was in his hotel room waiting for Luke’s call. He’d tried to watch some television, but nothing could hold his interest. He knew Luke was meeting with his parents today and he was anxious to know how the evening went.

While he was lying on his bed, waiting, he had dozed off but was rudely awakened by the chirping sound of his ( Read more... )

Chapter 19

“So Reid, do you want to tell me who you were on the phone with, if not the hospital?”

“Actually, I was talking to my sister.” Reid answered honestly.

Luke frowned. “I didn’t know you have a sister?”

“That’s because I haven’t told you about her.” Reid explained quite unnecessarily and with a smile in his voice.

“So, tell me about ( Read more... )

It was just a few hours later when the sound of his alarm clock woke Luke up. He reached over to the bedside table to shut off the annoying buzzing but stopped when his body reminded him of what he had done last night. He grinned to himself. That was the good kind of soreness. He loved it. He reached a little further and shut off the alarm.

He ( Read more... )

Chapter 10

The next day Luke and Reid went about their respective businesses. Luke went to training in the morning, doing some light exercises and running while Reid went to the hospital to check on his patient. Kevin didn’t show any signs of waking up yet, but Reid hadn’t expected him to. It would take at least 2 more days before that would ( Read more... )

Chapter 9

Luke was laying on his back on the sofa in his hotel room, with his arms around Reid’s waist, hands resting on the waistband of Reid’s jeans. Reid was kissing him passionately and Luke gave back as good as he got. With hot, deep and slow kisses he was exploring Reid’s mouth with a curious tongue, licking and stroking. Luke’s body felt ( Read more... )

The next day Luke woke up feeling well rested. The bump on his head was still there, but he felt fine.

He turned onto his back and stared up at the ceiling. He thought about the conversation he had with Reid the night before. Even though he only knew Reid for a few days, he trusted him completely, which was rare. Luke didn’t usually trust people ( Read more... )

Chapter 6

Luke finished packing his things and called Bob on his cell.

“Bob, hi. It’s Luke.” He said when Bob answered.

“Luke. How are you? I’ve been meaning to check in with you, but...” Bob started, but Luke cut him off.

“Don’t worry about it. I’m actually being released right now. But I have a favour to ask.”

“Anything, tell me.” Bob ( Read more... )

Chapter 5

Luke sat on his bed waiting for the results of his scan. He decided to try and put Dr. Oliver out of his mind and check the newspapers online.

He picked up his phone and found he had a few missed calls from his mother and several text messages from his team mates, all wishing him well. He smiled while reading them. If felt good to be ( Read more... )

Chapter 4

After leaving Luke’s room, Reid searched for the hospital cafeteria and was pleasantly surprised when he found it. It was a decent restaurant-looking place and it smelled delicious in there. He shoved all thoughts about Mr. Jackson and Mr. Snyder to the back of his mind and concentrated on the food laid out before him. There were so many ( Read more... )
