Ohhh the sheer amount of love I had for the Hardy Boys when I was a kid, and for loving when Joe got hurt? I swear I could have written this myself. I had most of the books and I so regret getting rid of them. But at the time I felt I was 'too old' to keep my kids books *sigh*

My first ever fanfic when I was like 9 or 10, before I even knew what fic was, was Joe getting hurt and Frank looking after him. I believe there was even some kissing it better.
