Fun Fic Friday!
~Fun Fic Friday~
TGIF! It's the day before the weekend, and what better way to close out a long week than with a fun dose of ficlets and drabbles of Luke, Reid, or Luke & Reid? Or how about some amazing icons or graphics of the guys? (Don't be fooled by the name - Fun (Graph)Fic Friday just didn't have the same ring to it.) Here's your chance to ( Read more... )

Reid sat at his computer and typed in “You’re all I have.” He read the line and his fingers itched to delete the sentence. It was lame. It was in the vicinity of what he wanted to say, but it wasn’t exactly in the ballpark.
He sat back in his chair and rubbed his chin as he sighed. Reid was a man of science, not beautifully turned phrases and sappy sentiments. Luke was the poet and wordsmith, not him.
So Reid had tried to bribe Luke into writing this little speech. He’d gone as far as offering a “good morning” blow-job for the next 365 days, effective immediately. Luke had rolled his eyes, then crossed his arms and said something to the effect of, “This is something you have to do on your own. And I’ll know it if you didn’t. Anyway, I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t be so receptive on those mornings you wake up at 4:30 for surgery.”
Reid supposed not, but it was worth a try. Damn it, he couldn’t get up in front of everyone and just babble. Well, he could and most likely would, if he didn’t get these vows drafted.
Reid was less than seven days from their wedding, and this was his last major duty before the festivities began. He had the week off of work. Was he going to stare at his computer all week while pulling out his hair? He groaned. This is not how he had planned to spend his last week of bachelordom.
He shifted in his seat, frustrated at the lack of refined verbiage popping into his brain. He closed his eyes then breathed deeply and slowly. That was something Luke had trained him to do when he was feeling claustrophobic or losing patience. He could hear Luke’s calm voice saying, “Don’t worry about the exact words. Just tell me how you feel and forget that anyone else is there. Anything you say will be fine. Trust me.”
He sighed again and opened his eyes. He read the sentence again and had his pinky on the “delete” button when suddenly he realized the addition of two words might help. He typed them and reread the sentence. “You’re all I need to have.”
It wasn’t the most beautifully written sentence of all time and upon reflection, he would most likely rewrite it. But it encapsulated Reid’s thoughts. He could lose his job, his health, his home or whatever, but he knew that with Luke at his side, he would make it through and with that knowledge, he smiled and started to type some more.

Thanks for your comments. I decided to give myself 25 minutes to come up with 100 words for this prompt. Of course I could've used more time to polish it (today I wish I had done that), but the point I was trying to drive home to myself is that I can do it.

Hehe, I like to think Reid's a red light performer, a part of his brain will spend the next couple of days subconsciously chewing on his vows, le moment suprême he will blow Luke -and the audience- away. Of course ;)
Love this!
