Tire Swing by Kate Roman (PG)

Fandom: STARSKY & HUTCH
Pairing: Starsky/Hutch (alluded)
Length: Perfectly succinct
Author on LJ: Kate Roman
Author's Website: http://romankate.livejournal.com/
Why this must be read: What could be more satisfying than the perfect little story? In my eyes, nothing. Kate always hits the bulls-eye when it comes to beautifully constructed stories, characters who walk from the words to life, shared visions, and exquisite language. She is the mistress of beautiful encounters, and always manages such memorable tenderness. She demonstrates, again and again, that taboos betweeen these boys only exist to be smashed to rubble.

Here, summer calls the boys to a playground, a tire swing, and an affirmation of what a special friend - what a special partnership - can mean when life seems bleak, and when memories reach out their threatening claws. 

What could be more cherished than someone to lean on...someone to hear the words you never dared to speak? And beyond the confession, what about the comfort, after the words are gone, of the hand on your shoulder?

Who can you trust? Hutch knows. Yes, he knows.

Please - read along with me. Join the boys on this summer evening - and see for yourself.
