Long live the Queen by monimala (R)
Someone just pointed this story out to me, so my last night of posting will start with it. Because it's Aliens and it's REALLY Aliens!
Fandom: MICHAEL BIEHN CHARACTERS - Cpl. Dwayne Hicks from Aliens
Pairing: Dwayne Hicks/Ellen Ripley
Length: short

Why this must be read:
Because Aliens 3 and 4 never happened, THIS did! And because it shows how hard it must be to have survived what happened in Aliens - how do you ever go on from that, and from knowing what's out there? Not to mention that for Ripley it's the second time she has survived. But this time she's at least not on her own.
One of the comments says it all: "I'd list my favourite parts but, omg, it would be too hard to choose because it is all brilliant!" Although I agree, I want to give a tiny snippet of an excerpt anyway:
He kisses her back like he's afraid she might break, and she quickly disabuses him of that notion. She's stronger than anyone would ever give her credit for. Capable of Herculean feats. Like pulling his T-shirt from his waistband and then ripping it in two. Shoving him backwards until his legs hit the edge of the bed. Devouring him, consuming him, breathing him in.
