Summary: A timestamp to my first epic story,
We Shall Come Home (AO3 link to complete story). In the original story, Peter and Neal had been transformed into dogs and had to make their way back to civilization. Towards the end of their journey, they’d become separated and Neal was terribly injured - to the brink of death. But love - Peter’s love - saves him in the very last heartbeats of his life. This is the story of what happens immediately after that final scene.

Peter couldn’t take his hands off of Neal, he was afraid that if he lost that contact, he’d lose Neal forever. It wasn’t entirely a foolish thought - he could still feel the magic in the air, it made the hair on the back of his neck stand up. )
