Coffee, in Hindsight by winks7985 (Teen+)
Fandom: The Magnificent Seven

Length: 3501

Author Website: Winks7985 fic on AO3.
Why this must be read: Chris Larabee can be a hard man to understand until you grasp how much he's had and lost. Winks7985 does a lovely job of giving us a modern AU glimpse of Chris' past from Sarah Larabee's POV, and it's not the scarred, heartbroken Chris we get in canon. The fic is warm and sweet, full of love and family and joy. The tension in the piece comes from following where the author leads and it's hard, very hard, to know how the story will end.
She poked her head into to her son’s room, seeing he was still asleep. His breathing was even, and his small face was covered by his favorite blanket so that only the top of his head and a little of his light brown hair was visible. Smiling fondly, she backed out of the doorway quietly. No sense in waking him if he was so content. Besides, she could use the time to have a nice hot cup of coffee and enjoy the silence of the still morning.
With a smile still on her face, she continued down the hall towards the kitchen. Her hand ghosted a touch on her belly, right at the loose drawstring of her pajama pants… When she saw Chris today, she would tell him the news. She snorted to herself, thinking of Buck Wilmington suggesting Eve as a name if it were a girl. It would be just what she would expect from Buck… Adam and Eve.
