Starsky stepped out of his Torino, took a deep breath, stretched, and relaxed. Such a lovely day: bright blue sky; fluffy white clouds; warm gentle breeze.<\/span><\/p>\n

Walking toward Hutch\u2019s front door he noticed a young couple on the sidewalk looking up at Hutch\u2019s windows. As he got closer, he could hear music.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIs that Ken playing the piano?\u201d the woman asked.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cNope. Not Hutch\u2019s style. He plays it a little more fast,\u201d Starsky answered proudly. \u201cIt\u2019s a record. Nice, huh?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cYeah. What\u2019s it called?\u201d asked the man.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cUh, lemme think. It\u2019s something foreign. I can\u2019t remember but it means \u2018Moonlight\u2019. Hey, I gotta run. See ya.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cBye,\u201d they said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Starsky couldn\u2019t remember their names but it was far down on his list of priorities.<\/span><\/p>\n

When he reached the top of the stairs he saw that the door was slightly ajar. He entered quietly and looked around. He spotted Hutch in the greenhouse. His partner was sitting with his head resting against the chair back, facing forward.<\/span><\/p>\n

Starsky moved to a better viewing position. As was often the case the sunlight brightened Hutch\u2019s hair. A beautiful sight.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hutch didn\u2019t move. But Starsky knew the moment Hutch became aware of his presence.<\/span><\/p>\n

Starsky walked into the greenhouse and stood in front of Hutch, just looking. Hutch\u2019s eyes were closed; he smiled just a little. He tilted his head to the left and parted his lips.<\/span><\/p>\n

Starsky smiled, bent down, and kissed those lips, a soft, sweet joining. He pulled away slightly and knelt between Hutch\u2019s knees. Hutch bent forward, arms around Starsky\u2019s neck, head resting on head. Starsky\u2019s arms encircled Hutch\u2019s waist. After a few moments Starsky moved back a bit. They gazed at each other. Hutch moved toward another kiss.<\/span><\/p>\n

As the music ended so did the kiss.<\/span><\/p>\n

Wordlessly, Starsky took Hutch\u2019s hand, drew him from the chair, and led him to bed.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
