Q:

I will never be over Carlos just sitting there at the hospital with TK sleeping on his shoulder. Like, he isn't even looking at his phone or anything. He's just sitting there fully content. I so wish we'd gotten to see the beginning of that scene where we could see TK snuggling up to him and falling asleep



paperstorm:

TK’s head drops and then he jumps, startling himself as he nods off and then jolts back awake. Carlos watches out of the corner of his eye as TK sighs in annoyance and scrubs his hands over his face. He lightly smacks his own cheeks, trying to rouse himself.

Carlos leans into him, bumping their shoulders together.

“Why is this taking so long?” TK mutters.

“Two times I’ve waited by your hospital bed,” Carlos points out, reaching over and taking TK’s hand. He threads their fingers together and rubs his thumb in a slow arc over TK’s skin. “Would you have crapped out this quick if it was me in there?”

“I’m not crapping out, I’m pissed that nobody’s telling us anything.” TK brings Carlos’s hand up to his mouth so he can press his lips to Carlos’s knuckles. “And if it was you, I would be an absolute nightmare for the nursing staff.”

Carlos laughs softly. TK looks at him, his lips curving into a small smile. “Yeah, I don’t doubt it.”

There are purple circles developing underneath TK’s eyes, his exhaustion showing through his pale skin. He always puts everyone on earth before himself, especially his friends, and it’s something Carlos loves about him so much but he also loves when TK slows down and lets himself be taken care of.

“Close your eyes for a bit. I’ll wake you up if a doctor comes to talk to us.”

“I’m okay,” TK argues.

Instead of answering, Carlos crosses his free hand over his body and taps with two fingers on his right shoulder.

TK licks his lips and smiles again. He tilts his chin forward, asking for a kiss that Carlos gives to him. Their mouths press together, soft and chaste but meaningful; TK humming quietly into it. He wraps his other arm around Carlos’s bicep and slouches down in his chair, resting his head on Carlos’s shoulder.

Carlos kisses his hair, and then looks across the waiting room into Grace’s smiling face as TK makes himself comfortable.

Q:

Just found your 911/Lonestar prompts series on AO3 and am in love with your writing! Specifically Tarlos and Noah. If your still taking prompts, could you do one where Noah gets accepted into the police academy but is scared to tell TK and upset his dad



strandbuckley:

Thank you for the prompt! You can read it on ao3 here or below the cut!

Carlos didn’t see his son anxious very often. Over the years, Noah had grown into a confident young adult and he and TK couldn’t be prouder. He never doubted himself when it came to school, or baseball, or his friendships. He’d worked hard to get into community college with a full ride baseball scholarship and worked hard to keep his grades up while playing and working part time on campus. The only time he doubted himself was when he was afraid of disappointing his dads.

“Hey Papa?”

“Yeah bud? What’s up?”

Carlos closed his computer and placed his reading glasses on top of it to focus on his son. Noah was holding an official looking envelope that had gotten slightly crushed and damp in his sweaty hands.  His eyes stayed trained downward on the scuffed toes of his sneakers and Carlos became vaguely nervous that whatever Noah wanted to talk to him about was bad news.

“I, uh, I have some news.”
