The Brain vs The Heart - A Battle Royale

Chapter 9

Reid turned, stood and watched as the Grimaldi jet took off. What the hell had just happened? He had let Luke just go, no worse, he’d ordered him to. The fact that Luke’s transplanted kidney had a definite shelf life made Reid ache. In a flash, images of a sick dying Luke Snyder crying and telling Reid he needed to go on without him

I've been reading your story and I
absolutely love it!! xD
You have Luke and Reid pegged perfectly.
Now, about this chapter.
Reid, what did you do, letting Luke ago?
You need to start listening to your heart
and following it.
Go be with Luke.
Can't wait for the next chapter. xD

awww thank you so much! what an amazing compliment. :)

He listens to his heart in bits and pieces but he has let his brain rule him for his entire life. the alternative scares the crap out of him. he will get there eventually.

[broncotvgirl]

I will.....eventually. (I know I'm a huge pain in the ass) *snickering just a little bit*

Oh my sweet Reid...why are you such an idiot? Get on the next plane to Oakdale and make it right. You're not a coward!

Reid is in love *sigh*...too bad Luke is probably ten shades of pissed right about now...well, he will be once he's done crying!

Great explanation of Reid's emotions!!! *bows down to you*

[broncotvgirl]

you're right, he isn't a coward.....when it comes to everything except maybe love.... but he will get there too! He knows he has to make this right if he can

yep Reid is in love...the only saving grace for Luke is he isn't there yet so he ends up....for the most part more bitchy than insecure about the rejection.

thanks for your kind words! glad it worked for you

[cas74]

HEHE,
I love bitchy Luke!!!

[broncotvgirl]

me too!

We are nothing if not passionate, right? Well, at least we sort of have an idea of why he acted the way he did, but that doesn't mean it wasn't assinine. He had better fix this and soon! I feel sorry for poor Luke, putting himself out there like that only to be rejected for a health issue. Not cool.

[broncotvgirl]

passionate? absolutely!!! that is one of the things I love most.

yeah, not Reid's finest moment! but he knows it.

the thing is, Luke doesn't even know why Reid rejected him.... that messes with his head a bit.

Thanks for the bonus chapter! :)

Oh Reid. I´m still mad at you but you managed to make my heart melt a bit. (Who am I kidding, I love that man no matter what he does!)

Poor Luke though. :(

[broncotvgirl]

you are so very welcome... I think it was needed :)

yeah... I'm totally with you. he has regret. that is what is important... now he needs to make it right with Luke
