Fics like The Desire to Drown

Takumi has been treading water for a long time. His racing career took him out of his home country to a place across the globe, but it had given him so many new things to experience, things to do, people to meet, races to conquer. He crushed records, married the girl that moved across the world to join him so far from home, and only occasionally felt homesick. He was content with the life he had. Ever since the accident that took racing away from him forever, the distraction and happiness that his job brought him ceased, and he'd been struggling to pull himself back to shore. Now, back in Gunma to celebrate the ten year anniversary of Project D, back in the home that was familiar to him, the places and people that he missed, long-buried feelings for the man that paved the way for his career threaten to come out of the darkness and pull him under, and he wonders if he should keep struggling. If here, under the stars above Akina, he shouldn't just surrender to that part of himself and let it grab him, pull him under into the dark depths he'd buried deep down in his heart.
