30 days of fic, day thirteen
Day 13. A fic you liked when you were younger
*
The answer was porn.
The answer to this godawful, never-ending ache was not a half-hammered
witness to a felony, even if she did smell like gardenias and have the
most beautiful tits he'd seen in person in his lifetime. Tits like that
came with baggage. All he'd had to do was drag his eyes up from them
to her face, to that 'I'm-interested' look in her eyes, to that lean
she had, that hand looking for a place to settle on him, and he'd known
she wasn't the solution to his problem. No way. No, she was just another
problem waiting to happen; another heartache, heartbreak waiting to shake
up his life.
One time around that block was plenty, thanks anyway.
It had taken no time at all, when he was talking to her, to go from a
tight, hungry thought about how good his cock would feel sliding between
those gorgeous tits to a memory of how he couldn't stop *shaking* in
the aftermath of Stella, how the hurt went on and on until he felt weak
from it, how sometimes it had been so bad that his teeth had chattered,
and he'd had to clench his jaw shut until it ached.
One led to the other. Not necessarily the dick-tit thing, that was just
your basic garden-variety fantasy, but all of it, the whole stinking
package. You'd start out good, right, but you'd end up bad. No other
way to look at it. Good ended up bad.

How Ray Got His Groove Back by Aristide and Bone, due South, Fraser/Ray Kowalski. This is *totally* a cheat, because the subject of the day kind of insinuates a "...that you don't like any longer" at the end, and who doesn't like a really long story with a lot of porn and an emotional plot about being afraid of relationships? Aristide and Bone wrote some seriously porny stories there for a while...
I was looking through my early links and bookmarks, and this story was recced by me in 2002. Earlier than that, and we disappear into the "before lj" land where all I can remember is original Furry Science Fiction, which I can't really...
...
ohey WAIT. It doesn't say FAN fic. I can TOTALLY rec those, and that series falls much more under "kind of embarrassed that I used to like it, but there it is" that I was looking for.

"Ember, what's bothering you?"
"Tomorrow's my birthday. Tomorrow I won't be a kitten, anymore."
"And you're afraid I'd stop loving you, or change in some way? That's silly."
She shook her head, a firm NO. "I need to ask you for a special favor."
"I'd do anything I could for you, you know that."
She paused, then, "Tomorrow, I'll be caiss according to everybody except... in the most important way. I'll still be a kitten. You told me a long time ago that the one I gave my kittenin' to should be able to appreciate it for the gift that it is. That's how you said it, and I think... you... could appreciate it most."
I looked down at what was to me a very young, very vulnerable girl. "You mean?"
She nodded. I was momentarily stunned. I looked down at her, and then I picked her up, gently, one hand under her shoulders, one under her knees, and walked slowly over to the hole in the floor that leads to my bedroom. We fell down it, the v-grav systems dropping us gently onto the bed, and as we landed I positioned myself against her, holding her to me.
