That aside, I thoroughly enjoyed Luke and Noah's scenes today which started in Oakdale with Noah giving Luke a Valentine's card which said: "The best thing that ever happened to me is you." Luke responds by saying: "The feeling is mutual."

Then, they almost kiss, they lean in, it;s gonna happen, finally. Then, like some kind of annoying and cruel joke,l the writers have them pull back at the last minute because some stranger was walking by. Uh, OK. Toy with us. Hope you are having fun.

Still, they are adorable. Then, the story takes on this fantasy sequence when Noah wonders how his life woulda been had he never met Luke. Suddenly it's NYC and Noah is in the Navy since that's what his crazy pop wanted him to do. He's on shore leave and literally bumps into Luke who drops his books. Anyway, they meet cute and end up spending the day together with Luke showing Noah the sights. As they stand looking at the Statue of Liberty, Luke comes out to Noah and vice-versa. Then they hold hands...then...they...HUG!

Said Noah: "That was the best shore leave ever."
