Fic: Live 'Til You Die (Pros, B/D)

[przed]

In spite of being generally swamped at both work and home, I've somehow finished the first story for my hc_bingo card.

Live 'Til You Die (3041 words)
Fandom: The Professionals
Pairing: William Bodie/Ray Doyle
Summary: When they're trapped in an impossible situation, Doyle does what he thinks he has to.
Notes: Written for the hc_bingo challenge, for the sacrifice square. Huge thanks to callistosh65 and m. butterfly for incredibly helpful betas, and moonlightmead for double-checking that the ending wasn't crap.

I'm on vacation and so have no time to read this right now, but I've saved it to my desktop. I'll be read this evening when I'm in for the day. Can't wait!

Oh, I am glad you have posted it!

Gripping the front of Bodie's jacket, he pulled him close and kissed him, hard and fierce, a kiss that recalled all the others they'd shared, and all the ones they'd never have now. Then before he could change his mind, he ran out from behind the boxes.
This frightened the wits out of me when I read it. Not because I won't read deathfic - I certainly will, and I am happy to meet it unexpectedly. Just the 'Oh no, he's not going to make it' fear. (also the title of the document you sent me was different, and even more stark than the final one!)

He chased the voice
I love this idea of chasing the voice back to Bodie.

And no, the ending is definitely not crap!
