Excerpt
Zuko nervously digs his keys out of his pocket and starts fumbling at the mailboxes. And he is fumbling. It’s like his fingers aren’t working properly, and he can’t get the key into the slot. It’s the most mundane thing, and Sokka can’t remember the last time he felt so scared.“Let me help,” Sokka says, because he can’t say "what’s wrong with you?"
Something’s wrong, something is very wrong, and it’s making Sokka crazy, not being able to pinpoint what it is. It makes him feel like he has to cut the right wires before a bomb goes off, except the bomb is Zuko going back upstairs again.
Zuko pushes his hair behind his ears, nervously, and Sokka follows the gesture until he’s looking at Zuko’s face. Zuko, who is always un-fussed-with and unkempt, is wearing makeup. It’s pasty, slightly darker than the tone of his skin, and it trails across his right temple like the tail of a falling star.
“Your head,” Sokka says.
Zuko looks at him.
“My…?”

Summary
Danny’s looking at him like he’s crazy. His hair’s dried up into a mess of waves, and there’s some tomato seeds on the corner of his mouth. “You just bailed me out of jail. And you think this is a good idea?”
“I don’t have bad ideas, Fenton. And like you’ve just said, I have collateral on you.”
“So you’re blackmailing me into pretending to date you?”
Tim shrugs. “Or you could just sign the NDA.”
OR
Danny's trying to recover all the shards to an entity's chalice so that it'll stop destroying the zone while tensions rise amongst his subjects- and trying to finish high school.
Tim's juggling his case load, his work as CEO, and does not have time to be embroiled in a sex scandal right now. If that means he has to pretend to date a very suspicious heir to a rival company, then so be it.
It's a mutually beneficial relationship. So what if Tim's becoming a little too intrigued by the illusive, powerful Phantom? So what if Danny can't stand the Justice League for leaving him to deal with all of Amity's problems when he was just 14? That's a superhero thing.
And their fake boyfriend has no clue that they're a superhero.

Summary
Once Alex has pulled out, Henry turns over to face him. He strokes the hair softly away from his face and Alex smiles at him.
“So… that happened again.”
Henry leans forward and kisses him on the forehead. “Indeed.”
There’s a sort of thoughtful pause, where Henry can see Alex working to pull together the right words. “I’m not sure I’ve ever seen you that… thirsty?”
“Oh, bugger off,” Henry says, but he’s laughing. It’s a fair description.
“No, but I mean it. You were like… urgent. It was hot.”
“It felt hot. I liked waking up like that. With you up against me, trying to have your way with me.”—
Set in and around the Henry bonus chapter, this is a story about Henry and Alex’s hectic schedules, family appearances etc. pulling them apart, and about what starts to happen between them, in the quiet of night: their sleeping bodies turning to each other, finding their sweet spots and opening up. And Alex and Henry learning a lot about each other in the process
