Admittedly, Luke doesn't have a wealth of experience when it comes to relationships. He's spent his whole life hung up on Jocelyn, doing his best not to pressure her or act as if he was waiting for her, never wanting her to think that was the only reason he stayed. Beyond being desperately in love with her, she's also always been his best friend, and he's never wanted to sacrifice that.
But it has also meant a certain level of disconnect from potential romantic relationships. There's only been two women before Mindy and only one of them lasted for any significant length of time, because in the end it's always come back to Jocelyn. She isn't here, but he still spends much of his time thinking about her and thinking about the things he's missed out on while waiting for something to change.
For a time, he thought he might be moving on, that Mindy might be that person, but he can only delude himself for so long. Whatever it is he wants, she doesn't want the same thing.
He's making coffee when he hears her stirring and he returns to the bedroom several moments later, two steaming mugs in his hands. He's wearing his jeans, but nothing else, and suddenly he wishes he'd given them both time to get dressed. But there's really no avoiding this any longer. "Good morning," he says, offering her one of the mugs.
