    Summary

    In 1990, Mark and Robbie are tennis doubles champions and best mates who both want to get with rising star Gary.

    In 2006, they're sworn rivals with wildly opposing career success, yet somehow Gary is still the only real thing dividing them.

    Inspired by Challengers (2024)

    Summary

    When Rob insisted on a drunken game of Spin the Bottle, Mark really didn't feel like playing. And when he produced a blindfold, Mark felt like it even less.

    But maybe it'd be worth it, in the end?

    Summary

    Deep breaths. He can do this. It’s only Howard, after all, and the bed isn’t that small. There should be plenty of space for both of them, and Gary can get through this night without touching Howard’s body at all; Howard’s perfect, chiselled, mostly naked body, clad only in the tightest pair of black underpants he’s ever seen...

    Summary

    “Hey Gaz.” He jumps when Mark creeps up on him from behind, soft hands grabbing his shoulders. “How ya doing back here?”

    Gary grunts. “Fine.” He knows he’s not, and Mark knows he’s not, but he doesn’t want to seem too desperate just yet. It’s only eleven thirty.

    “You sure? You feel pretty tense.” His fingers dig in, massaging Gary’s strained muscles gently. Gary can’t help arching to the touch, a hot spark running down his spine, and then he hisses at the ache in his groin. “You could do with some relaxing.”

    “Yeah, I wonder why I’m not relaxed,” Gary mutters.

    Summary

    The rehearsals of the upcoming reunion tour are not going well. Nothing is clicking. Mark thinks it’s because the band are no longer close to each other in a physical sense, but he doesn’t know how to say it out loud. Will the band ever get to return to the closeness that he so desperately misses?

    A short story about reconnecting, and why Take That will always love touching each other the most.

    Summary

    It's a good thing they've got going on. Gary knows as well as anyone he needs his ego reined in every once in a while, and Mark needs someone to control and boss around, not to have to mind his words and be Sweet Little Markie From Take That all the time.

    Summary

    Jason took one indulgent heartbeat to savour the feeling of Mark needing him, of Mark coming to him because he could offer him something nobody else could: tenderness. The feeling lit a flame of protectiveness deep inside him that in turn ignited the familiar desire to dote on him and give him anything he wanted.

     

    Or: the band are in their final weeks of promotion before splitting up and only one person can help Mark navigate his feelings about it.

    Summary

    When you all get back together after so many years, knowing you have to be honest and talk about your feelings if you don't want everything to go all wrong again, and that leaves room for someone to come out with: hey, do you lot mind if I wear a dress tomorrow? Like, all day?

    "Jesus Christ, I need a drink."
    I froze at the words that I hadn’t heard for nearly five years. Well, I'd heard them, but never like this. Never so...final. There was just something about his voice; an edge that I hadn't heard in a long time.
