C6D Celebrations Challenge: Turn Toward Home
Title: Turn Toward Home
Author: vsee
Pairing: Fraser/Kowalski
Rating: G
Length: ~3800 words
Why I'm reccing this fic: It's a quiet, insightful description of the first Valentin's Day for Ray and Fraser as a couple from Ray's POV. It rings true, how Ray gets uncertain and redefines their relationship and the meaning of this holiday during the events of the evening. And all the smaller and bigger proofs of love for each other left me feeling warm and fuzzy.
Maybe he should have called this morning to say Happy Valentine's Day. He'd thought of it as he was making his first cup of coffee, but it felt girly, silly.
But what about when they got home? Walking the wolf really wasn't the most romantic choice, but it seemed urgent at the time. A lot of the time, getting rid of the red uniform, and his own shoulder holster meant more than just changing into more comfortable clothing. A lot of evenings they spend an hour kissing, grappling, and rubbing each other off on the bed before Ray could even decide to have a beer before dinner. Tonight they had barely looked at each other as they changed out of work clothes. Maybe Fraser had been expecting him to make a gesture, push him up against something, and show him that he was irresistible. Everybody wants to feel sexy and desired on Valentine's Day. Had Ray missed his cue?
