Luke watched Noah sit down with Ameera as he began to leave, with Noah saying he was in love with him still echoing in his ears."Fuck this shit, " he thought to himself as he turned to go back inside.Noah and Ameera looked up as Luke came back inside.

"Did you forget something Luke? " Ameera asked as she eyed him.Luke began across the room and bent down to Noah."Yeah I did, my boyfriend," Luke said calmly as he planted a deep kiss on Noah's mouth.Noah stood as he and Luke began to kiss more deeply and Noah had his arms wrapped around Luke's neck, pulling him closer.They were interruppted by Ameera saying, "You two must stop at once before someone sees this."

Luke and Noah stopped while Luke sat down next to Noah."You guys don't mind if I stay for lunch right?" Luke asked as he smiled sweetly at Ameera.Noah placed his hand on Luke's and said, "Of course not, right Ameera?" She simply nodded and Luke noticed how upset she looked.He smiled inwardly to himself, not giving her anymore alone time with his man than necessary.As they continued to eat, Noah placed his hand on Luke's thigh and rubbed him lightly.Luke looked up from his plate and smiled as he caught Noah's eyes.Ameera saw them exchange looks and excused herself from the table, mumbling something about taking a nap.

Luke thanked her for dinner as he turned his attention to Noah.Noah scooted his chair closer to Luke and whispered in his ear." I meant what I said Luke, I am so in love with you." Luke put his hands on either side of Noah's face and said, " I love you Noah.And I am telling you.I am not going to say anything to Ameera about what Casey said to me, but if she thinks she is going to be your wife in any other way besides on paper, then she has another thing coming.I am a Snyder, and we do not go down without a fight." Noah laughed at his boyfriend and kissed him deeply, neither realizing that Ameera was on the other side of the door listening to everything they had said.

It was getting late and Luke didn't want to leave, but he knew that he had to. Noah walked him to the door. "I'll see you tomorrow, but without Casey it will harder."

Luke put his hand on the side of Noah's face. "Yeah I guess, but with that in mind can you just do one thing for me."

Noah looked sternly at Luke. "Luke you know I would do anything for you."

After Noah's statement, all types of thoughts went through Luke's mind. He then got serious. "I know you want to help Ameera, but can you just be careful with her. It would make me feel a lot better about things."

Noah started to speak. "Luke..."

Luke put his hand to Noah's mouth. "Promise me."

Noah nodded. "I promise."

Luke smiled and kissed Noah one last time, before he headed home. Noah got ready for bed and went into the bedroom. Ameera was already in bed. She turned when she heard him come in. "Noah what time is it?"

Noah looked at the clock. "Not too late."

Ameera pulled down the sheets for Noah to climb in. "Come to bed."

Noah remembered his promise to Luke. He pulled up the sheet and blanket and got in bed. Ameera watched him. "What are you doing?"

Noah pulled the comforter up over himself. "I think it's best if we don't sleep under the same cover."

Ameera laid back down. "If that is what you want."

Noah nodded. "Yes. Good night Ameera."

Ameera turned over. "Good night."

Luke walked around Old Town because he felt restless and ran into Casey. "Casey, I thought you had to work tonight."

Casey looked at Luke. "I was fired and it is all you guys fault."

“Oh Casey, I’m so sorry that’s the last thing we wanted to do,” replied Luke. “I know, I didn’t mean to snap it’s just been such a long day,”

“Do you want to talk, I mean, I’m here too listen, as a friend not a boyfriend,” joked Luke.

Casey laughed before replying, “Sure, why don’t we go to Al’s.”

Casey and Luke headed to Al’s and after they’d ordered they sat down at a table to talk.

“Luke, I didn’t mean to lose my temper earlier, it’s just,…”Casey paused wondering if he should tell Luke what Ameera had said to him.

“Casey, you’re my friend, you can tell me, what’s going on?” asked Luke.

Casey was silent for a second and then answered, “Ameera told me something earlier,” “Like what?” asked Luke uncertain as to what Casey was talking about.

“Ameera told me,” he paused, “She told me that she was falling in love with Noah.”

“What? No, you wrong, you’ve got to be wrong,” Luke looked down at his coffee trying to take in everything Casey had said. After a few minutes of silence Luke spoke up.

“What did she actually say?” asked Luke.

“She didn’t say she was in Love with him, but she didn’t deny it either. She said that She’s knows Noah loves you, but that doesn’t change the fact that she’s his wife,” Casey said reluctantly.

“Wow, Casey you’ve spent a lot of time with Ameera, do you think she’d do something to try and take Noah from me?” asked a confused Luke.

If Luke only knew. Ameera laid in bed watching Noah as he slept. She bit her lip. He was so beautiful. "I don't care what Casey said. Noah is my husband. He should want to be with me."

Noah turned on his side. Ameera moved over next to him and put her hand on his shoulder. Noah let out a sigh. "I love you Luke." He said in his sleep, as he pulled his pillow close to him.

Ameera moved her hand away as she heard Noah call Luke's name. "I don't believe he's dreaming about him. I want him to dream of me."

Ameera climbed out of the bed. She went and got her phone and dialed a number. "Hello. I know it's late, but I need your help."

Luke had gotten home after talking with Casey. He laid awake for quite awhile. When he finally fell asleep he tossed and turned, not able to get Casey's words off of his mind. He sat up with a fright. "I've got to get through to Noah. I want to protect Ameera too, but not at the price of losing Noah."

He thought for a minute. "I'll call Lucinda she'll know what to do."

He looked at the clock. "It's only 7. It's probably too early to call. I'll have to wait until later."

Ameera listened to the voice on the phone, "What's wrong, it's really late there?"

"I'm running out of ideas. I kissed Noah as he carried me over the threshold and he didn't seem to like it or seem interested at all. I overheard him tell Luke that he's in love with him. I just don't know what else to do."

A very frustrated voice, "Listen, you do whatever it takes, I didn't go to all the trouble of getting you to America with this plan to fail now. Noah has slept with at least one other girl, so make yourself as appealing as possible and get the job done!"

"I'll try." Ameera responded.

"Ameera, who are you talking to?" Noah asked walking out of the bedroom.

Just as Luke was picking up the phone to call Lucinda, it rang. "Hello."

"Luciano, it's been a while since we've talked and I wanted to see how you're doing, I hope it's not too early."

"No, I was just about to call grandmother. What do you want?"
