Chapter Summary: CaRe....Sex....LuRe...Declaration (maybe not in that order)
Casey looked over to see Reid still sleeping next to him. Neither one had planned on drinking as much as they did the night before. Reid had to get up for a shift at the hospital the next day, but somehow they decided to keep drinking anyway. Both had, had a shitty day and needed to relieve some stress. Reid had been physically exhausted from work and Casey…….well……..he was just confused; about a lot of things actually. He was confused about his own life, he was confused about what in the hell was going on in Luke’s, he was confused about Luke’s relationship with Noah, he was confused about Luke thinking there was something going on between him and Reid and he was confused that he may actually be developing feelings for the man he considered to be one of his best friends now. Who has a sex dream about one of their friends if they’re not in to them? And what was worse was that it was a dream about another man. What the hell does that mean? “Uuuhhh, I’m so confused,” Casey said out loud.
“What are you confused about?” Reid mumbled.
Casey’s eyes grew wide and turned his head to see Reid blinking awake and rubbing his hands over his face. “What?” he said as he watched Reid sit up and lean against the headboard.
“You said you were confused,” he said somewhat groggy. “Confused about what?”
“Umm……nothing,” he replied looking away, unable to make contact. “We should…” he pointed around the room and got up hastily, grabbing his pants and yanking them on. “Let’s go get coffee.” Reid watched as Casey practically ran out of the room. “Ooooookay,” he said to himself, getting up to gather his things and follow Casey downstairs.
**********
Casey was looking around the coffee shop, still avoiding Reid’s gaze, which was quite hard to do given the fact that the older man was doing nothing but staring at him. Reid huffed and finally broke the silence.
“Okay Hughes. What’s going on?”
“What do you mean?” he asked nervously.
“You’ve been acting weird ever since I woke up.”
“No I haven’t,” he said quickly.
“Uhh….yes, you have.” Casey didn’t say anything. “Come on Case. What’s going on?”
Casey took a deep breath and looked at Reid. “Do you think I’m gay?” he asked bluntly.
Reid laughed. “What?”
“It’s just…….I don’t know who I am and nothing’s ever worked out and sometimes I’m uncomfortable by things, but why would I be if I was completely comfortable with myself right? And then Luke said something….”
“What did Luke say?” Reid asked curiously, cutting across Casey’s babbling.
“No, nothing,” he said shaking his head. “I just…….I……..” Casey looked at him, mouth open, willing himself to speak, but nothing seemed to be coming out.
“Casey?”
“I had a sex dream about you.”
“I beg your pardon, what now?” he said laughing.
Casey shook his head again. “I should go.” He went to stand up, but Reid pulled him back down to the table.
“Casey stop. Tell me about it.”
“Tell you about what?”
“The dream.”
“I……can’t.”
“Yes, you can. Start from the beginning.”
Reid sat there and listened as Casey told him about the events that took place during his dream. If Reid were honest with himself, it was uncomfortable as hell, especially since Casey looked like he was going to be sick the whole time. In normal situations, Reid would’ve been highly amused, and he was, but he was also a little bit worried because he could tell Casey was freaking out about it. Reid didn’t want to see Casey struggle, but he also had some selfishness involved in the situation. He didn’t want Casey to freak out to the point where their rapidly growing friendship was strained as a result. Reid was never really one to connect with people well or let them in, but Casey somehow managed to be one of the few exceptions. That little fucker. And the thought of Reid being alone again somehow managed to scare the crap out of him, so he listened. He listened until Casey finally came to a stop.
“So you woke up when you…..” Reid made a little hand gesture and rolled his head.
“Yeah.”
“Wow.” Casey looked at him, afraid of what Reid would say next. “Well it sounds like we had a good time.”
“Reid,” Casey said shortly.
“Casey, just because you have one sex dream about someone, that doesn’t necessarily mean anything.”
“It doesn’t?”
“No, of course not.”
“The fact that it was you…..”
“Means absolutely nothing,” Reid finished. Casey looked at him skeptically. “Okay, sitting here, across the table from me right now…..are you attracted to me?”
“Eww…….no.”
“Okay, well you didn’t have to say eww, but okay, see….you just said you’re not attracted to me.”
“And the fact that my dream was me and another guy.”
Reid looked thoughtful. “One time, I got really drunk and had a sex dream about Susan Sarandon…..”
“Susan Sarandon?” Casey interrupted.
“Yeah, don’t judge. Anyway, naturally it freaked me out at first because…..well, you know….gay, gay, gay…..but then I realized that it was just a combination of alcohol, me being horny and the night before I watched that “Mother Lover” video.”
“Oh the Dick in a Box sequel with….”
“Justin Timberlake, yeah. So see, it was probably just like that. You were drunk and you yourself had said it’s been awhile and since we were hanging out, I was just the first thing in your mind.”
“Yeah…..maybe,” he said relaxing a bit.
“Definitely.”
“Umm…..thanks, I guess.”
“You’re welcome. Just do me a favor?” he asked. He waited for Casey to look at him again. “Just remember that things aren’t always black and white. You don’t have to be gay or straight. You’re just Casey and it’s not even like you have feelings for a guy, so there’s really no need to freak out about what you think all this might mean, okay?”
“Yeah,” he nodded.
“Okay,” Reid said getting up. “Well, now that all this emotional stuff is settled, I’m going to go home, take a shower and then get to the hospital. Some of us actually have to work today.”
“Ha-ha,” Casey said smiling. “No need to be jealous Dr. Oliver.”
“Eat shit gay boy.” Casey’s mouth dropped open and Reid laughed. “See ya Case. Try not to stare at my ass too hard while I’m walking out.”
Casey glared as Reid walked away. Asshole.
**********
Luke was walking briskly down one of the corridors at Memorial. A smile stretched over his face. He felt happy…euphoric even. For the first time in months, he felt like he could breathe again. He wasn’t sure where he was headed. His feet were moving and his mind was still trying to catch up. He turned the corner and that’s when he saw him. He had his lab coat on and clipboard in hand. The switch had been turned on and Luke knew. He needed this man and wanted him with everything he had. Before Reid even knew what hit him, he was being shoved through the door behind him by a flying mass of blonde hair.
“Luke, what the hell?”
“Shut up,” Luke said taking the clipboard out of Reid’s hands and throwing it on the floor. Without any explanation Luke crashed his lips against Reid’s forcing his mouth open. Reid involuntary moaned before finally finding the strength to push Luke away.
“What’s this all about?” he asked.
“I want you,” he said going back in to claim Reid’s mouth for himself.
“Did you and Noah get into a fight or something?”
Luke stood there shaking his head. “This has nothing to do with Noah. It’s about you, and me. And I’m standing here telling you I want you.”
“For how long,” Reid interjected.
Luke stepped up and took Reid’s face in between his hands. He leaned forward, their faces an inch apart and stared straight into the depths of Reid’s soul. “For as long as you’ll have me.”
Luke pulled Reid in to another earth shattering kiss. He could feel the older man’s slight hesitation, but it was quickly forgotten about when this time it was Reid who moved to open Luke’s mouth. Their tongues battled for dominance in a fight for one to gain control. Reid pushed Luke up against the wall, knocking over the box of latex gloves overhead. He lifted Luke’s left leg to hook it around his hip and ground their erections together. Luke was impossibly hard and the feeling was intoxicating. Before Reid could make his next move, he found himself being turned around and thrust back into the wall space Luke had just occupied.
“How the F….”
“Shhh……it’s my turn.”
Luke rapidly started unbuttoning Reid’s shirt under his lab coat. Once the last buttoned was freed from the hole, he dragged his nails down Reid’s chest and abdomen leaving red marks until he reached the top of his belt buckle. He had sunk down to his knees and frantically unhooked Reid’s belt and pushed his pants down to the ground. In one swift, quick motion, he took Reid in his mouth. “Fuck…Luke.” Reid arched his back at the sensation of Luke’s throat constricting around his cock. Luke was working him mercilessly with his mouth and Reid just tried to stay upright by grabbing at the wall and tightening his hand, what he was sure was painfully, in Luke’s hair. Right when he was about to release himself in Luke’s mouth, he felt him pull away. Reid looked down to see Luke staring up at him, lips swollen and shiny with pre cum. Fuck, he’s sexy. “Why’d you stop?”
Luke smirked before slowly working his way back up Reid’s body, kissing and sucking until he reached eye level again. “I’m not ready for you to come yet.” He grinned devilishly.
“Luke, I think we should talk about this before it goes any…...”
“Sshhhh,” Luke leaned forward and whispered in his ear. “Kiss me.” He pulled back to see Reid staring at him, looking for some trace of doubt or confusion. Luke’s eyes weren’t clouded by either, but instead were open, honest, and mixed with something else Reid wasn’t quite sure of. Before he could second guess himself, he reached forward and grabbed Luke pulling him towards his body and devouring his mouth with his own. Before Luke knew it, he was standing, ass pressed against an exam table, completely naked. How the fuck did that just happen? Reid’s pants were completely off. The only thing he was left wearing was his opened button-down shirt and his lab coat. Luke took in the sight in front of him. His dick grew three inches instantly and he’d never had an urge to want to play ‘doctor’ more. Later. Plenty of time later. He stripped Reid of his remaining clothes and when he felt the older man push him back even further, he forced them to change positions again.
“Like I said,” he sighed, running his finger down Reid’s chest and belly. He looked back up at Reid and smiled. “My turn.”
Reid leaned forward and chastely kissed Luke on the lips before Luke grabbed the back of his head and turned things more passionate. He ran his hands up and down Reid’s back before settling his fingers at the top of Reid’s ass, ghosting them in and out between the two sweet cheeks. They found their way to his hole and Luke playfully teased, running his fingers over it, but never entering, despite Reid pushing back.
“Luke,” Reid murmured.
“I want to fuck you,” he said, placing open mouth kisses against Reid’s neck and bruising the succulent flesh below. Reid hummed incoherently. “Lube,” he whispered.
They broke apart for a quick minute while Reid opened up one of the drawers, throwing every trivial thing he found out on the floor; scissors, tape, band-aids, a SpongeBob Squarepants pencil…..What the f-? “Seriously, what kind of hospital is this?” he muttered. He finally pulled out a small jar of Vaseline. Oh thank god. Before he could even fully turn around, Luke was throwing him up on to the table. Reid was turned around, his back towards Luke. He was on his knees, his arms grabbing at the top of the exam table, which was in a reclined sitting position. Luke was behind him, all wrapped up with a condom from his wallet and ready to go. He forced his way into Reid without any preparation; just his Vaseline covered cock. Reid gasped at the sensation and stiffened at the intrusion. Luke paused and held on to Reid, arms wrapped around him as he waited for him to relax and adjust. He leaned forward a bit and kissed Reid softly on the back of his neck. He heard Reid moan and felt him relax around him. He slowly pulled out and pushed back in again. He continued with short and shallow strokes as Reid was so tight around him. He kept his arms wrapped around Reid as he thrust into him. Reid on the other hand was moving his hands everywhere; either gripping at Luke’s arms or the table or behind him, trying to pull Luke in even closer. Neither man said a word; just audible grunts or moans, mixed in with heavy breathing. The only other sound that filled the room was the exam table paper underneath them crinkling and ripping with every push and pull. Both men were sheened with sweat as Luke started thrusting in to Reid harder. His strokes became longer as he pushed even farther into Reid. He felt Reid shiver and his body laced with goose bumps as Luke found that sweet spot and continued to hit it over and over again. Luke was breathing right against the back of Reid’s neck, his nose buried in Reid’s damp hair, breathing in the scent that haunted his dreams at night. His right hand found its way to Reid’s chest, where he layed it, his palm spread flat against the rapid heartbeat below. Reid’s own hand moved to cover Luke’s and his breath hitched as Luke slammed in to him one last time before both men fell over the edge with their own cries. They remained there, both still and boneless; Reid intertwining his fingers with that of the hand that still remained over his heart. He felt Luke squeeze back and whisper against him in a choked out voice. “I love you too,” he said. “I love you too.”
