Distracted By Something Shiny

Gotta get back on fic posting, damn! So I thought I'd start by putting up my last Justified fic I have in my folder. Not sayin' there won't be more, but this is the last one I'm holding onto atm, so here you go. Some Boyd & Raylan (or Boyd/Raylan) angst. For ranua, for the countless hours we spent dissecting this relationship. 552 words. Enjoy!

( It was happening again, just like it had years ago, when they were still young and their scars were pink and new. )

So, about two weeks late, but here is the "Justified" fic I wrote for ranua's birthday! I actually had it finished two weeks early but I have been doing all my posting from my laptop and this fic isn't on my laptop. Anyways, thank you for your patience, babe - I hope you enjoy it! Look, my first official Justified fic!! Like writing Raylan and Boyd isn't hard enough, I had to throw in the extra challenge of writing teenaged Raylan and Boyd.

Summary: A conversation between two teenage boys who are not as far apart as they think. In fact, they are so close, they are nearly touching. Angst, Gen, Pre-Series, Raylan and Boyd, PG-13 for mentions of child abuse with 640 words.

Dedication: For ranua, who not only let me have long drawn out conversations about the nature of Raylan and Boyd’s history together, but who actually encouraged it. This fic is what you get for being such an enabler, babe! Happy Birthday!
