It's A Private Thing, by Brit (PG-13)

Fandom: STARSKY AND HUTCH
Pairing: none
Length: ~2200 words
Author on LJ: unknown
Author Website: http://www.zebra3blt.net/Brit.html
Why this must be read:

This is the first Starsky and Hutch fanfic I ever read, and it made me weep buckets--but I still loved it. It shows that Starsky and Hutch can make it through even the hardest things, with each other. It still holds a special place in my heart.

This story is about how their friendship developed, and Starsky trusting Hutch with his pain. I think Starsky’s ‘voice’ is very good, too. The author gives no warnings, but it’s a tough topic (although non-graphic).

EXCERPT:

I was tired. I admit it. Drop-dead tired, actually. It felt so good just to stretch my legs out from Hutch's big ole chair, kick off my shoes and prop my feet up on the coffee table. He doesn't put his honkers up there, too proper I guess. He's curled up in one corner of the sofa, one leg tucked under him. Even sprawled out like that he looks like a gentleman - refined, ya know?

I was tired, but felt pretty good considering the case we just finished up. It was only our third major case together, me an' Blondie over there, but it felt great when the judge passed out the sentence - three life terms with no opportunity for parole. Felt real good.

Hutch did some real slick work on this case. Showed a lot of sensitivity to the kids we had to talk to.
