That Good Pain in your Stomach

The Dream

Just a short one today. I've had the idea for this one since the episode first premiered.

Italics mean it previously happened on the show...Regular font means I wrote it :)

"Hey, you know what I dreamt?" Lukas asked, laying in the hospital bed somewhere in the maternity ward.

"No. What?" Philip asked.

"That you got yourself a dirt bike."

Philip chuckled. "Are you serious?"

"Yeah, a four stroke."

"And what were you riding?"

"252 stroke."

"Ah, right, of course."

"Savage," Lukas said.

Philip rests his head on his hand. "I've had dreams like that before."

"About dirt bikes?"

"No, about riding off with you."

"Like in a movie?"

"I guess," Philip said with a smile.

"Sometimes I dream the weirdest shit," Lukas said. He looked away from Philip. "Like before I woke up, I dreamt that you told me you loved me. But I couldn't say it back. No matter how hard I tried." Lukas could feel his face flush from embarrassment. He almost didn't share this dream with Philip but he felt that he had to. If worse came to worst he could just laugh it off as a stupid dream.

"Lukas, that wasn't a dream." His head snapped back to look at his boyfriend. "You weren't waking up. I was scared I would never get another chance to tell you. So I told you I loved you, I begged you to wake up, and I kissed your forehead. That's when I saw your dad looking at us." Lukas continued looking at Philip in shock. "I know it's too soon and that you're not there yet. You don't have to say it back. We can just pretend it never happened."

"When I thought it was a dream, it was killing me that I wasn't able to tell you. I literally couldn't move my mouth. Well, now I realize it's because it was real and I was unconscious. But what I'm trying to say is that I love you, too, Philip." A huge grin spread across Philip's face. "Yeah, you're going to need to lean down here. It hurts too much for me to sit up to kiss you." That only made Philip smile wider as he leaned down to softly kiss Lukas.

"Hey, boys, just checking to see if you needed any..." the voice at the door trailed off as he saw that he was interrupting. Philip quickly pulled away and looked up at his foster father.

"Thanks, Mr. Caldwell. We're fine," Lukas said, shocking his boyfriend at how calm he is.

"Yeah, I can see that. I'll just go..." Gabe said, backing out of the room.

"You...I've never seen you be so calm about our relationship being public."

"Yeah, well, I figured since my dad probably knows...and Gabe isn't as scary as my dad..." Lukas replied, shrugging it off.

"I love you, Lukas."

"I love you, too, Philip," Lukas said, pulling on Philip's shirt so he was leaning over him again, kissing him. Lukas's fingers slipped through his boyfriend's soft brown hair, deepening the kiss.

Please leave prompts I can use! I'm seriously running out ideas.
