Good Omens

such surpassing brightness by Handful_of_Silence
The revelation that Aziraphale might have been in love with him for thousands of years is surprising. The fact that literal books have been written on the subject comes as even more of a shock. Hee! Taking mutually oblivious pining the really long way around. <3

Harry Potter

Light in August by orestesfasting
"I don't know. I don’t know what I'm—" Sirius ran a hand through his hair frantically; he thought he might vomit, or pass out, or both. "I really want to kiss you, Remus."

The words hung over them on the still summer air like a mosquito net. Sirius took a shaky breath and closed his eyes, thinking that if he gave in to his current impulse and apparated to Iceland, he'd probably splinch the majority of his vital organs in the process. The resulting image didn’t seem too far off the mark, really: Remus sitting at the end of the dock next to a heap of wet guts.

Just as his resolve to stay put began to falter, Remus broke the silence. "So kiss me." Sirius spends the last full moon of the summer with Remus and they finally get it together enough to act on their feelings. Oh my heart. This is so lovely and evocative of long summer days full of yearning and nonsense.

Stranger Things

Night Patrol by Sholio
Steve wasn't the only one. The little kids had their own version of it, riding their bikes all over town: getting out and getting exercise, from an adult perspective ("It's so wonderful you're not staying cooped up in your room all the time, Dusty!" Steve heard Dustin's mom enthuse, one of the times he was picking the kid up to drop him off at the arcade), while actually scouting the town for anything weird and dangerous. He knew that Jonathan and Nancy occasionally did the same thing in the woods in back of the Byers house, working as a team, Nancy with a gun, Jonathan with a camera to document problems for the Chief to take care of. Steve figures some things out. Nancy and Jonathan help. <3
