Luke hid a smile, he could almost hear the frustrated words Bo was undoubtedly thinking. Ignoring the younger man, he focused on Daisy's jeep.
Bo blew a breath of air between nearly closed lips. He didn't understand why Luke was working so slowly. They should have been done with this and on their way to Atlanta an hour ago. Didn't Luke want...his eyes snapped to where Luke stood, bent over the hood of the jeep. His mouth opened, but no words would come. What had he done? Oh Lord, what had he....
A choked, strangled cry jerked his attention away from the jeep, just in time to watch Bo running for the barn. Luke frowned. He knew his slowness had been frustrating Bo, but he hadn't thought it was that bad. Good thing he was done, he grinned. Wiping his hands, he tossed the rag aside and followed the blond into the barn. He didn't need to call out, he knew exactly where he would find his cousin. Moving down the center of the building, he pulled open the door to the corn crib. "Something you want to talk about pet?" he asked, his tone as neutral as his expression.
The look of despair on Bo's handsome face drove all thoughts of teasing the younger man from his mind. Without a thought, he climbed into the corn crib, crouching next to his cousin. "Bo? What is it? What's wrong?"
"I'm sorry Luke," came the whispered reply.
He was sure the confusion he felt must be written on his face. "Sorry? What do you have to be sorry for Bo?" he gently asked. The younger man just stared at him until Luke was sure he would have to repeat the question.
"You don't have to keep being my.... Thank you for trying, but you don't have to keep pretending."
Luke blinked, "What makes you think I'm pretending?"
"You're putting off going to Atlanta."
It was Luke's turn to stare as he wondered what Bo was talking about. Like a coin in a slot, the pieces fell into place. "I wasn't putting it off, I was teasing you."
"Teasing?"
He nodded, giving the blond an affectionate smile. "I knew you were anxious to get to Atlanta, that's why I was working so slow. You've always hated waiting..."
"So you still want to be with me?" Bo hated how small and timid he sounded, but he couldn't seem to help himself.
Luke smiled, giving the blond a one-armed hug, "Yes Bo."
He giggled, the feeling of relief that flooded him leaving him giddy. "Thank you Luke...Master," he shyly added. "I'm sorry Master."
Luke sighed in fond exasperation, "What are you sorry for now pet?"
"I shouldn't have doubted you Master."
"No you shouldn't have pet, but I'll forgive you this time."
Bo smiled, "Thank you master."
"Now," Luke said, crab crawling to the door and out, "I'm done so while I get cleaned up, you put the tools away."
"Yes Master," Bo nodded, following him out of the corn crib.
Luke watched him for a moment, surprised at the feeling of pride that washed over him as Bo obeyed him without question. "Come in and clean up when you're done," he threw over his shoulder. He didn't wait to acknowledge Bo's reply, confident that the blond would do as he was told. He almost laughed, a few days ago he wouldn't have been nearly as sure. Of course a few days ago he wouldn't have expected to have Bo as his own personal slave. Odd how a man's life could change so quickly.
A short time later, they were leaving the farm, Luke driving Daisy's jeep, with Bo following in the General. They dropped the jeep off at Mary Beth's for their cousin, before heading for the Hazzard bank. A small transaction later and Luke was back in the General, money in hand. Once again, he was grateful for their uncle's insistence that they keep a bit of the money, from each race they won, for themselves. Though if the older man knew what use he'd be putting those funds to, he might not be so insistent next time.
