Oh this is was wonderful! And HOT! And loving and sweet and insightfully spot on with characterizations. You really held back from making any of them too sad or tragic or emo, and I appreciate that, while still giving them complex emotional lives. You captured the bits and pieces that make up the heart and soul of these guys -- Vecchio's smile, Kowalski's almost-innocence, Fraser's prickly charm -- and I LOVE this line:
...Ray was sort of scared to go touching some of the things that went on in Fraser's heart.
Wow, yeah, I can see that.

Great story, well told, beautifully written! Thank you!
