BAND OF BROTHERS, Edward Shames/Thomas Peacock, When Ed sees Tom for the first time during the war he's stunned - this is the first ever guy he slept with back when he was 18.

(Ensemble fic where the whole platoon comes together to look after Nate who is Not Okay upon their return to the states. Wouldn't be opposed to it veering into Brad/Nate with Brad managing the whole thing like it's the most important operation of his life while pretending he's 'not emotionally invested, goddamnit, Ray!' But Gen would be awesome, too)
