"If anyone objects to these two being joined in holy matrimony, speak now or forever hold your peace," Reverend George Booth said.

No one spoke.

"Very well. Luke Snyder and Reid Oliver, I now pronounce you married."

Luke and Reid both beamed before they kissed.

Dr. Reid Oliver opened his eyes and groaned. That was the third dream he had had this week that had involved him marrying Luke in some way or another.

"What the hell is wrong with me?" Reid said to himself as he rolled over in bed. It was Saturday and he was off, so he was able to sleep in. "I've never wanted to get married. Marriage is for hopeless romantics and for insecure, cry-babies who need to be dependent on other to feel good about themselves." So why did he keep imagining himself marrying Luke?

Giving up on the prospect of going back to sleep, Reid got out of bed and took a cold shower. When he re-entered his bedroom, Reid spotted a picture on his dresser; it was of him and Luke standing in front of Snyder pond, their arms around each other. Reid smiled at the memory: it had been about a month after they started officially dating and Luke had dragged him to the Snyder family's annual beginning-of-the-summer picnic at the farm. Reid had been miserable (though the food had been fantastic!) but the time he and Luke had spent alone down by the pond had helped significantly to make the day not a complete torture, especially since if had been the first time Luke said he loved him.

Reid stood standing there in a pair of black jeans and a T-shirt he was almost certain belonged to Luke, thinking about that memory and the six months that had passed since then. Their relationship had been rather smooth sailing, with only a few rough patches here or there – like whether or not they should take Luke's private jet to Dallas for their six month anniversary – which were resolved quickly and thoroughly non-verbally.

Suddenly, there was a knock on his door and Reid was startled out of his reverie.

"Come in," Reid said, turning to face the door. Katie Snyder, his roommate, opened the door and entered the room.

"I wasn't sure if you were still asleep. I know how much you love your sleep when you're not on call."

"I was thinking too much to sleep late," Reid said.

Katie looked at him suspiciously. "Well, I just wanted to tell you that Jacob and I will be at the farm all day."

"Okay. But can you wait a few minutes. I need your help with something." It was a spontaneous decision, but Reid knew it was the right one.
