Some Rain Must Fall by Swingandswirl (NC-17)

Fandom: NUMB3RS
Pairing: Colby/Ian
Length: 28,617
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] swingandswirl
Author Website: http://swingandswirl.livejournal.com
Why this must be read:

This is the bit of fic where [livejournal.com profile] swingandswirl jumped from a promising author to a really good one.

The story sends Colby back to his home town to see his mother die with Ian along for support.

There are reasons Colby hasn’t been home in so long and a childhood under a violent, sexually abusive uncle is one of them.

This isn’t a healing!cock story and I wouldn’t rec it if it was. It’s a look at how an abused child can still grow into a strong adult but never fully remove what happened from their lives.

It isn’t preachy or make you want to kill yourself dark. It’s a just a really good read.
