The crime scene was nasty, the room thick with the fug of blood and gun powder. Walking outside, Starsky stared up in awe. Bright morning after darkness. Three days of freezing cold without precipitation, now there was snow. Such a rarity in Bay city, it fell, dusting grass and palm trees white. Beautiful, altering mundane into fairyland.
Hutch emerged shivering, his exhaustion evident, to lean against the Torino.
Scooping up a tiny handful of slush, Starsky lobbed it at his partner.
Hutch’s eyes went wide when it landed on his cheek. He laughed with delight. “It’s snowing!”
Made Starsky’s Christmas.

Lovely! Thanks so much!
Thank you–just indulging in fantasy snow.
I can just picture Starsky trying to cheer Hutch up by throwing a snowball at him.
So sweet. I always imagine H missing snow. He’s a Viking, not a Beach Boy!
Our mischevious little elf Starsky jolting Hutch out of his doldrums.
So sweet. I always imagine H missing snow. He’s a Viking, not a Beach Boy!
LOl–that ancient DNA still wants him to be wearing reindeer skin boots and sporting a huge beard? Thanks.
Aww, lovely. Not often we get to hear Hutch laugh with delight. Thank you!
He should laugh— but Starsky usually annoys him. Strangely, a snowball in the face gives him joy. Thank you!
That was so cute! Loved it!
Thanks!!!
thank you. Snow brings out the childlike wonder in us all.
Lovely,
I can picture their faces
Thank you! That would make a funny Christmas card, huh?
Aww, I always like how Starsky can be such a kid, especially when he wants to make Hutch laugh.
But of course. He wants Hutch to be happy.
Very sweet. But some of us hate snow! LOL! Palm trees dusted with snow brings back memories. Thank you!
I remember seeing large succulents and palms dusted with snow and they looked deflated and sad! Thanks for reading.
Awww… an event in Bay City as rare as our boys’ connection. Nice.
Thank you! There’s a moment for rarity in our lives.
Aww, very sweet.
Merci.
A Christmas miracle! 😊
Our guys cause miracles every day.
I can picture this – Starsky cheered by snow, and using it to force Hutch out of his head, too. ♥
Yep. That is exactly Starsky’s job. Thanks for reading!
I know how exciting snow can be when you’re not used to seeing it. Sweet scene!
That’s it exactly. Thanks.
