The Secret

Reid walks into Katie’s place later that night, shrugging off his leather jacket and smiling at her. “Is your bodyguard around?”

Katie stands from the dining table. “Who?”

“Hank.”

Katie laughs. “Henry. Yeah, listen, I’m sorry about earlier. Henry can be quite protective of me and Jacob.”

“Of you mostly. Is there something going on with you two? Are you . . .?” Reid asks as he stands beside the couch.

Katie quickly shakes her head. “Oh, no, no, we’re not anything, not now. We were-a long, long, long time ago. We were married even but not anymore

Thanks a lot!

This is awesome! I love that Reid spilled his "secret" just in the middle of a regular conversation like that (also, important roomie talk, heh) and that there was no fuss about it. And aww, a new nickname is born. :)

Yup, that's Reid for you. He speaks the truth. Thanks!

AWwwwwwwwww, love Katie and Reid's friendship!

[sleeper6]

Me too! Thanks for reading!

I really like the way you did this reveal. The subtlety of switching the pronouns on Katie was very believable. I could hear this conversation actually happening. (though I still think he told her at the baby clothes folding.)

Thanks. Yeah, I'm torn as to when he might've told her but then knowing Reid, his sexuality isn't a huge secret or anything and also, I think maybe he could've picked up on Katie flirting with him so he wanted to set her straight. Hee.

Thanks!

I love the idea that Katie was keeping Henry intentionally in the dark. This was great!

Thanks!
