Triangle chp13

[jload]

One year later.

Noah was surprised to see Luke walk in the front door of Mirage.
He could tell Luke was surprised to see him as well.
"How are you?" Noah said a little stiffly.
"Good, good."
There was an awkward silence. Noah noticed that Luke looked good. Really good. Not just his looks, those hadn't changed, but his aura. More directed, more mature,

I was not bad as i excepted condersiding all the warning you gave me lol.The way it ended way fair thank you for that :P

[jload]

Hey you bet. Yeah, had to give lots of warnings, didn't I? Anyhow, thanks for reading and commenting. ;)

[shar_jere]

you are most welcome :P.it was certainly different, different is not so bad once in a while!!

That's how I feel for sure. I know some won't agree, but if I just keep reading fic after fic where the ending is predetermined, my mind just becomes kind of dead and I start to get burned out on my appreciation of Luke and Reid together. Plus, I think Reid and Noah are hot together as well, at least in this fic!

[jassanja]

Hey

You finished
and it turned out wonderfully

thanks a lot for writing this

[jload]

Hey thanks jassanja! I'm glad you liked it - I'm really, really glad.

:)

Yayz whilst Noah/Reid not together in the end it seems like they are working back to that :)

Dani Likey Very Very Muchly is glad all 3 Boys on friendly terms :D

[jload]

Hey Dani,

Yeah, I would definitely say that Reid showed up at the bar because he's looking to start something with Noah, something more honest and grown-up.
And I liked them all being on friendlier terms too, and each having an arc. If anything I liked Luke SO much better than where I started him with, I just didn't quite see this version of him and this version of Reid having the love connection so to speak, and I actually thought it was right for Luke not to be with a guy at the end, because he's been doing that for too long. Reid I thought gained some humility and insight into himself, and Noah not only came out but took the initiative at the end to go and see Reid on honest terms, even if he had no guarantee as to how it would end.

Hey J! So happy for you that you finished it, and beautifully wrapped it up!!! I do love the fact that everyone got to learn something about themselves, that's really great and the most important thing to me.
*relieved to read that luke's ok, my heart is less broken than expected*

I still don't like Noah, I can't help the feeling, even in an AU and even if you do know how to write for the boys girl!!!!

What about writing Luke and Reid again? Can I ask you how you feel about that?

[jload]

Hey comasisters!

Glad it wasn't TOO heartbreaking for you! Yeah, for a while there I really detested Noah, and couldn't even remember why I used to like him and Luke, but I don't know, since the show ended I think my brain is trying to arrive at some sort of happy amalgamation of all the good parts from both pairings or something. So now I like Noah (at least the way I wrote him and in a couple other fics I have seen). But that's OK, you don't have to like him ;)

Yeah, I still have to finish the last chapters for Three, although I admit my heart's not really in it just now. Eventually I will do it...just need to arrive at some inspiration.

(I also have a rather lengthy fic on the backburner that is an AU Reid/Noah, which is probably not your cup o tea, but I won't post that until it is absolutely done.)

But I will keep you posted no matter what! Hope you are well!

[comasisters]

I do understand how you feel about the Lure inspiration right now and your attempt to find a way to make peace with the characters/pairings you loved, and still love, even if the show came to an end.

I've never been attached to the Nuke thing, so I guess this explains how I feel. But I like to talk about all this with you, it's nice to share those points of view.

It's funny because there wasn't really a triangle on the show, I never felt any competition between Reid and Noah, for me Luke knew for a long time that he would have to say goodbye to his first love. Watching him moving on from his first love, that was the real issue to me and we all know sometimes the first love is one of the most difficult thing to let go.

Well, anyway, wish you to have fun with Reid and Noah but I'm sure you have. And thank you for the well wishes, really hope you're doing just fine as well.
Speak soon, hopefully!!!!

[jload]

Yeah, I think you are right about the Nuke thing. If you weren't ever into them before Reid came along then the whole thing probably reads differently. And I completely agree, the triangle on the show was a joke. Why they even made the pretense I don't know (but then again there was a lot about the writing for the show that sucked). Reid was such a knockout that there was no contest in my mind

[jeri_1116]

Thank you so much for this I really enjoyed this. Is it really over? :( maybe a follow up where he's out of medical school and him and Noah live together and start a family. Just saying but thanks, loved it

[jload]

That would be a fun direction to take it, wouldn't it? Since I know you enjoy a little Reid/Noah I will for sure email when I post the fic I have been playing around with for a while. It's called Birthday Boy. I guess I have the Reid/Noah itch right now and I'm really scratching it!

Thanks for reading!
