First Dance by Kathie Norris (PG)

Hi, I’m Amberle, and my hands will be on the wheel of the van for July. This is my first time driving the van, so please be patient with me! I’m also warning you that I am slasher at heart, so please don’t be surprised if all of my recs are slash fics (although one or two gen fics may sneak in).


Fandom: STARSKY & HUTCH
Pairing: Starsky/Hutch
Size: 6K
Author on LJ: cbtreks
Author Website: Unknown
Why this must be read:

I’m a long time fan of Japanese yaoi anime and manga (for those who don’t know, “yaoi” is a male & male relationship), but about two years ago, I was getting sick of reading about the same characters all the time, so I decided to stroll around the internet for something new. That’s when I came across First Dance. It was the fic that introduced me to the Starsky/Hutch slash fandom, and I’ve barely read any yaoi fics since then. It seems that I find reading stories about one of my old favorite tv shows so much more satisfying. It’s post-SR, and it’s short, sweet, and lovely, and was a wonderful introduction to the love story that is Starsky and Hutch; therefore, it has to be the first rec I do.

The two men stood in the close embrace, Starsky's head on Hutch's shoulder, Hutch's cheek resting on the top of Starsky's head, each seeking, and giving, comfort, one to the other. They swayed a little as soft music continued in the background and soon the swaying took on the rhythm of the music.

Hutch felt Starsky smile against his shoulder. "What is it?" he asked softly.
"Us," Starsky said, just as softly. "It's almost like we're dancin'."

Please don’t forget to send feedback to the author!

Hey Amberle. Great pick for your firt time out the gate. What a nice story. Oh, and don't worry about too much slash. Can't get enough S&H slash, in my opinion.

I like know your reasons for why you picked that as your first rec. Very nice choice. I didn't know the story or author. Very nice.
