The sad one in which they break up for good moerlin February 2 2014, 01:24:03 UTC

Being with Reid has done wonders for Luke's self-esteem. Unfortunately, now that Luke realizes how much he's worth and is starting to really figure out what he wants out of life, he can't settle for married-to-his-work Reid anymore.

(Yes, I realize no one's gonna write this, but I'd like this to exist. Gimme all the relationship problems that don't involve any third parties.)

"So that's it?" Reid's face was like stone, but Luke had known him long enough to see the widening cracks that were beginning to show through.

"It's the way it has to be," Luke said.

"I could-"

"You can't." His 'can't' came out firm, but Luke did his best to keep the bitterness out of his tone. If Reid could, he would have figured out how to do it sometime in the past four years. "Memorial will always be your first priority, Reid."

"But..." Reid's voice sounded like a sled scrapping across gravel, and is eyes glistened with unshed tears. Reid looked up and blinked to keep them at bay. "But I love you."

Luke had to look away to keep himself from caving. "I...I know. This isn't about lack of love - I still love you - but I can't go on like this."

"You brought me here." Reid's words were tinged in anger, and Luke appreciated it because he could deal with Reid's anger ( ... )

So angsty and sad, but I love it! This is a really good portrayal of how the right decision can be the hardest one to make and act on, and that love isn't always enough.

Good writing. Sad story.

I know I was asking for it (literally), but way to break my heart. Sometimes love just isn't enough. *sniff* I thank you.

What about turning tables?
It's Luke who can't change and works his ass off?

>> I can deal with Luke being hurt - but Reid?.. I know it's almost like a mental deformation ;)

Anything that gets your creative juices flowing, really.
