I found these drabbles hidden deep withing my files. I wrote them ages ago and never got around to posting. Some of them are slash, other's aren't. Reviews would be appreciated. Hope you enjoy these.
One
Hutch still remembers when he first met Starsky; the curly haired New Yorker had charged into their assigned room. Looking back Hutch knows that Starsky had charged into his life that very same day. For some reason the teachers at the academy had decided to put the two of them together, and they had stayed together ever since. At the end of the course Hutch had told Starsky that he was moving to Bay City to be near him, so they could be partners some day. Starsky had looked at him and said "of course." Hutch had found his family.
Two
Sometimes Hutch wonders why he stays in his job. When he stumbles across the copse of a teenager who decided that she couldn't go on any longer. When he's sitting in a hospital chair waiting for his partner to wake up after being shot he wonders why he became a cop in the first place. But then he reunites a child with his father, he helps another prostitute get off the streets, and all of a sudden he realises that the world needs people who are willing to go through the bad stuff, besides, Starsky needs to be looked after.
Three
For years they supported each other; through illness, through hard days at work, through the break ups, through enforced heroin addictions, times of grief, and through hospital recovery's. There were always rumours about just how close they were, but they took no notice. It was only when Hutch had declared that he was through with women, was through with break ups that Starsky began to think about the rumours. It took him three days to make his decision; their first kiss lasted exactly three minutes. It took Hutch three hours to say yes, they stayed together forever. Me and thee.
Four
Sweet Alice loves Hutch; she loves the way he treats her with respect, she loves the way he doesn't judge the way she lives, she loves the playful look he gets in his eyes when he talks to her. Alice knows that Hutch loves Starsky, the same way that she loves him. She also knows that with Starsky Hutch has a chance of happiness that she would never be able to give him, which is why she grabs hold of Starsky's arm as he follows Hutch out of the club and tells him what she knows. Starsky loves Hutch too.
Five
Starsky treasures each minute he gets to spend with Hutch, knowing that they are lucky to be together at all. They had had so many near misses, bullets that had nearly hit their target, poisons that had nearly done their job. He touches Hutch every moment he can, steals hugs and kisses from him at every opportunity. Because he knows that even though they've finally found each other, everything they have could be snatched away from them at any moment. They could have years left, months left, weeks left, days left or it could just be a matter of hours.
