Why I'm reccing this fic: I planned on reccing this fic as soon as I saw the challenge. Both Fraser and Ray K's POVs run side-by-side down the page. It's an experimental masterpiece. As-per-usual with cesperanza's fic the characters are spot on and the story is both painful and beautiful. I know cesperanza has already been recced this challenge but this fic is just what the challenge calls for. And I know everyone who's in the fandom has probably read all of her work already but her stories are the kind you can read again and again.

Why I'm reccing this fic: Because it's short and sharp and so very true. You'll really believe this is how Fraser feels and it hurts. I had tears in my eyes when I'd finished reading it. A new author, I believe, and one who should be encouraged as much as possible.
He wants to suck Ray's thumb into his mouth and taste him. Fraser watches Ray's hands curl around the steering wheel; he can see those knuckles turning to white as Ray's holding on to the bedpost.
