What an excellent fic! This from someone who normally can't take hc. I love the last line; but then I love every line. That black garbage bag is a great touch.

Awww, thank you. I didn't even think of this as h/c... I feel like almost everything I write for these two is just pure fluff. ;) Thanks so much!

Aww! That was awesome! I loved John being worried about Matt being late, and then about Matt being sick, and going into comfort mode, and giving in to buy the root beer. And the cheesies. *g*

Thank you so much. Now I have a craving for cheesies. :)

When God was still in diapers? What a fantastic line!

But poor Matt. I don't know, though. Sucking on cheesies?

And wouldn't it be funny if John caught whatever it was that had Matt sounding like he had coughed up half a lung?

Okay, I know he wouldn't think so, but Matt would get to feel all Dr. Kildare.

Great story! Thank you!

I like to think that John has the constitution of an ox, but ya never know! Thanks so much for reading. :)

Aww. You get those cheesies for your man, John. You get 'em.

LOL SUCK ON IT TIL IT'S SOFT. I know somebody who is stubborn like this when they probably shouldn't be eating things that cause pain...

And THIS?
"John paces. John worries. Because John's a cop and he knows exactly, in technicolour detail, what can befall a cute skinny kid on the A train or the 57 Local. And because Matt's his, and - though he's done his best to tone down the macho he-man overprotective posturing shit - at heart he still thinks that it's his goddamn job to keep the person he loves safe."

TRUTH.

Even though it's exactly the kind of shit Matt (and me) will judge him and give him all kinds of (useless anyway) shit for. HE TRIES DAMMIT. HE TRIES. Omg I love him. Track pants and leather and all. Hee hee.
