Why this must be read: Because no one writes a kiss or a hug quite like her. And how she takes a quiet moment of exhaustion post a bloody-op and turns it into something else entirely, is so quietly moving that right along with an uncertain Bodie you’ll hold your breath a little. And there’s aftermath too; a time jump forward, where consequences, reckonings, and a whispered promise come due.
It’s romantic as hell, and it’s still the lads. The gal’s a genius.
It was an innocuous movement on Bodie's part that had forever shifted their world off its axis. Ray had been standing at his kitchen sink, staring out the window, an untasted cup of tea cooling in one bruised and torn hand. Conversation between them had dwindled and died and Bodie, measuring out the last ounces of his fading energy, announced that he was going home. He'd murmured his goodbye and when Doyle failed to reply, had reached around him to set his own cup on the counter.
For some reason, Doyle had chosen that moment to rouse himself and take a step back. Bodie, turning away from the counter, saw the motion and instinctively flung out his arm, thinking Ray was going to collide with him. But instead of being startled and stepping aside, Ray had pressed into Bodie, and Bodie had found himself giving in to a previously undefined but suddenly undeniable impulse to wrap his arms around his partner.

I agree. Her stories are the kind that make you fall in love with Pros again (if you ever needed to). Thanks for reminding me of this particular one.
