April Fool by CC (PG)
Fandom: STARSKY AND HUTCH
Pairing: Starsky/Hutch
Why this must be read: Amnesia stories have always appealed to me. What changes take place in a person when they no longer know who they are or who the most important people in their lives are? Who do they become? This story shows what a difference a year can make. In the past year, Starsky and Hutch have gotten together and bought a home and they're happy. But then an accident erases that year for Hutch and Starsky's left with a partner who doesn't remember the love they shared.
Starsky held himself still, hardly even daring to breathe until he knew Hutch was asleep. Only then did he allow himself to feel the effects of his worst fear realized: Hutch wasn't in love with him and didn't remember that he ever had been. He probably never would. The pain of it was so deep and so sudden that Starsky groaned before he could stop himself. He sat up and clutched his stomach, trying to will the pain away.
Hutch shifted and rolled over to face Starsky, a lock of his fine blond hair falling onto his forehead. Without thinking about it, Starsky reached out and pushed it back into place. He remembered kissing Hutch's forehead just the day before and instantly felt the incompleteness of it. If he'd known it would be the last time, he would have kissed Hutch's eyelids, his temples, and his chin. He would have taken one last kiss from Hutch's lips, the knowledge that it was the last one making it all the sweeter. Starsky slid from the bed to the floor, folding his arms to rest on the edge of the mattress. Emotionally spent, he rested his head on his arms.
We change, everyday, becoming slightly different. Looking back in time, who we once were is no longer who we are now. And sometimes, who we become is intertwined with someone else. What happens when the person you love most doesn't remember their love for you?
