Reid glanced over his shoulder from his spot on the couch. Luke was pacing around behind him talking on his phone. Quite frankly Reid was not happy about the annoying interruption. Mainly because Reid hadn't gotten the chance to see Luke all that much in the last few days.
What with him being at the hospital all day, and Luke with his foundation it didn't give them much time together.
Reid picked his head up hearing Luke's phone snap shut. He looked back at the blonde, expectantly. Knowing all too well what the look on his face meant.
"They said they needed my help with something for the foundation." he said looking at Reid apologetically. "I'll be back later though," he added quickly hoping that it would help improve the others mood.
Reid let out a sigh, "Well me and Katie will just entertain ourselves I guess," he said overdramatizing his disappointment. Luke smiled and gave him a quick kiss before grabbing his keys off the table.
"Alright I'll see you guys later," he said while walking out the door. Reid smiled lightly after Luke left and in the back of his head he could hear a sudden thought dawn upon him.
/You know I really think I could spend the rest of my life with that kid./
Reid remained blissfully unaware of the full meaning of his realization for a few seconds.
Then it really hit him.
"Oh. my. God NO!" Reid shouted slamming his hands over his face. Katie jumped off the couch immediately.
"Reid what is!" she asked frantically. Reid meanwhile was too dismayed to even realize she was talking.
"Oh FUCK!" he said shaking his head not even lifting it up. Katie was still in absolute panic having no idea why Reid was doing this. "Oh God this is not happening. No no not to me, God this can't be happening!" he repeated.
"Reid!" Katie finally shouted at him. Reid picked his head up staring at her. "What the hell are you screaming about!" she asked exasperated. Reid groaned in response. He let his head fall back on the couch, "There's just no way, this can't be happening to me." he stated again. "This can't be happening to me, the very person who doesn't even believe in this cliche love crap!"
Katie raised a brow wondering what Reid was blathering on about. She widened her eyes in realization.
"This has to do with Luke!" she said. After all she knew when Reid said he loved something she knew it either referred to sandwiches or Luke. Now she just had to think about what Reid would be freaking out about that involved Luke and love.
She was perplexed, Reid had been dating Luke for almost a whole year. And she knew that Reid accepted that he loved Luke a very long time ago. So what else would make Reid flip out this much? After all Katie had noticed how much Luke had improved Reid's personality. So much that Reid had gone through his whole near death situation to get Chris his heart.
But going through a list of things that still bugged Reid, she found not many of them had to do with love or Luke. Then again when Luke was involved Reid would pretty much do anything, because no matter how much the surgeon denied it when Katie said it, he did have a very big soft spot for Luke. Luke had gotten Reid to do things that Reid would never have done before this, hell he had even gotten Reid to go to that wedding for Holden and Molly with him!
Katie's eyes suddenly went very wide when that dawned upon her; and suddenly everything seemed to click together in her head. She found herself staring at Reid in disbelief with her mouth agape.
"Oh my God..Reid...are you hinting at what I think you are?" she asked. Reid looked at her with one of the most pitiful expressions on his face, confirming Katie's un vocalized suspicion. "Reid you want to marry Luke!" Katie nearly shouted; however, this time when she yelled she had an enormous smile on her face.
"SHH!" Reid shushed her sharply. "Don't say it out loud!" Katie was all too giddy now though.
"Why Reid? That's amazing!" she squealed. Reid frowned though obviously not as excited as Katie was about it. She eyed him in question, "Why don't you look happy?" she interrogated.
"Because Katie...I'm..me. I don't even believe in that whole marriage thing!" he said exasperated. "I don't even know why I feel that way, I just had some thought in my head that it would be nice to spend the rest of my life with him!" he said with an absolutely shocked face. "I don't even know where that came from!"
Katie smiled at him, "Awe Reid has feelings~" she teased earning a glare from the surgeon. "Not funny." he stated. Katie rolled her eyes at him, "But Reid that's so sweet."
"Katie never use that word when your describing me," he warned. Katie rolled her eyes again. "Reid the fact that you want to marry Luke isn't a bad thing!" she stressed. "Sh!" he shushed her again. Katie ignored him, "That's a great thing! It means that you really love him!" Reid rolled his eyes dramatically knowing that Katie was about to go off on one of her mushy love speeches.
"God Katie please don't do this to me," he pleaded with the blonde. Who frowned at him, "Just tell me why you won't admit it." she said crossing her arms. Reid sighed heavily in response, "Because Katie, it's not something that's normal for me. The thought of marriage has never crossed my mind for my entire life. And quite frankly I don't know if I want to believe it, for all I know it could be a fluke, maybe this is just one of those things I think of a few days and then it just goes away." he said hopefully.
The look Katie gave him was less then encouraging though. "Love doesn't just go away Reid." she lectured. "You know I'm right Reid, like it or not being with Luke has changed you for the better, so if you want to marry him then why don't you?"
Reid only stared at her in shock though. "What!"
"I can't just ...do that out of nowhere!" he stressed. "I don't even know if I want to! And besides...I...I don't even know how Luke would react to this." he said unsurely. Katie gasped in surprise.
"Are you seriously doubting that Luke would say yes! Reid that boy is crazy about you!" she urged enthusiastically. "There is no way that Luke would ever say no. Honestly Reid, he is head over heels in love with you."
"You make him sound like some lovesick teenage girl," he remarked. "What's so bad about that?" Katie asked defensively. Reid gave her a look, "Because he's not a girl!" he snapped.
Katie tilted her head question written all over her face.
"But I thought Luke was the girl," she trailed off. Reid glared at her, "Not important right now," he contradicted. Katie only chuckled in reply, "He better be after all Reid, you have to worry about proposing to him, not the other way around."
Reid frowned in annoyance at his roommates teasing and absolute giddiness of the situation he was in.
"Yes, Katie Luke is the girl, are you happy now?" he asked. She only giggled in reply. "I know you are," she taunted. "But will you at least think about it Reid?" she pleaded him.
"Believe me Katie I'll be lucky if I ever get the notion out of my head." he breathed out while rubbing his head.
