Why this must be read: Because I’m closing out my month here with one of my favourite writers in all of fanland. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, no one writes a first kiss quite like her, so we’ll end on this gorgeous piece of post SR, Christmassy slash. There’s an injured Hutch, Starsky doing a deal with a kid over a box of mistletoe in the ER, and an omelet cooked together... This hits every one of my domestic, hurt/comfort, post SR, first time buttons. And in the most warm-fuzzy way.

The first brush of their mouths was a little awkward, both of them unaccountably clumsy, given their vast and combined experience. Their noses bumped as Starsky's palm slid off the counter and he had to grab Hutch's belt to steady himself, but all was forgotten when their mouths found the perfect angle, both of them sighing with the glorious imperfection of finally getting it right. Though far from a passionless kiss, it had a breathless innocence to it. Starsky concentrated on the texture of Hutch's mouth, the dips and planes, the soft skin and the prickly edges of a five o'clock shadow. It was all terrifyingly wonderful, the fulfillment of a promise they'd made without ever knowing it.

Thanks for reccing this. I was unfamiliar with the author's S&H stories. Though I had read her MUNCLE stuff. That's what's great about the van!

You're welcome, I'm delighted you enjoyed it! I read and loved her fic in Pros and S&H, and then read every Sentinel story she'd ever written before I saw a single epsiode, so I know exactly what you mean about how good the Van can be for such things.
