9-1-1: Lone Star
Carlos Reyes/TK Strand
for those who hadn't seen the spring
TK has pills in his hands, a hole in his chest, and Carlos' love in his eyes.
Infinity times infinity
Carlos loves stars, and he, somehow, found them inside of the most beautiful irises he's ever seen.
falling for you
Three times Carlos had had his heart broken and one time he could mend it.
Four-letter noun
TK writes a letter to Carlos, just because three little words are not quite enough.
you are the future, and the future looks good
TK has late night thoughts and a lazy morning beside Carlos.
i'll hold you close in my arms
The aftermath the the hostage, when TK’s at the hospital (again).
if i share my thoughts with you, would you share your life with me?
After a shift from hell, Carlos could use a little bit of kindness.
so dark up above, the sun's in my heart (and I'm ready for love)
TK could really, really use a hug and something to break the deaf sound of his blank thoughts. Instead, Carlos offers him space ― and a little bit more of his heart, even if it already belongs to TK.
you knew what it was ― he is in love (and so are you)
TK gets home to find his boyfriend dancing and singing to songs he doesn't know ― and he stares at him just because he can.
there is nothing new about me (but you)
After Owen finishes helping TK and Carlos moving in, the two of them have a little celebrating to do.
there ain't no way to burn when the fire's out
TK and Carlos have a fight over Owen and his stupid actions, and Carlos is alone when the fire starts ― and even more when, for him it ends.
gonna be okay (but surely not today)
TK apologizes as he should have done, and they talk about feelings, fires, and maybes.
let's have conversations in the dark
Getting home to Carlos, even a sick one, was the best part of TK's days. Even more, so, when sleepy conversations led to the future.
tell me your secrets (and ask me your questions)
TK was never used to be seen. Carlos had always been to scared to be heard ― and if Carlos could see TK through the veils of sorrow he carries around, TK could get used to hear some anwers in the silence.
it's a falling star you catch (and then you hope to God it stays)
TK is a reclusive champion skater that takes the world in like patterns on ice. Carlos is a professor that knows everything about words ― except how to use them. And while he might teach TK how to take things more lightly than lightweight, he migh as well learn how to make sentences that are filled with meaning ― and not necessarily sense.
hearts don't break around here ― multi-chaptered
In which TK is a florist in his free time, Carlos is skeptical in full-time, and they fall in love among flowers and through windows.
Anatomy of a broken heart (and its pieces) ― series
Although pain is not everlasting, scars stain more than just skin ― and if broken hearts still beat, broken souls might just mend themselves again (if given a chance, of course). Or in which the relationship with Alex left more scars on TK than only over his soul.
there'll be happiness after you
I know my love should be celebrated
falling feels like flying
if you never bleed, you're never gonna grow (and it's alright now)
he's got my past frozen behind glass, but i've got me (and you've got me too)
you drew stars around my scars
and when i break, it's in a million pieces
gleaming, twinkling (eyes like sinking)
