    Summary

    亚历克斯在面试中总是出类拔萃——在面试后,也总是会被录用,而且他手里已经有好几个聘用通知了。他也不是一个会信口胡说的人——他真的很努力。 他会在面试前了解公司,提出正确的问题,给出深思熟虑的答案。每个人都很高兴和他谈话。

     

    这次应该没有什么不同。

     

    (并非如此)

     

    翻译自AO3 《When I want sincerity》

    Summary

    NYPD Alex x NYU Professor Henry Age Gap romance!
    “You absolute idiot,” Alex said, stepping closer, crowding him against the counter. “You think I’ve been showing up at your door like some kind of glorified dick appointment for six weeks because I don’t like you?”

    Henry’s stomach twisted up. “I thought—”

    But he didn’t get to finish. Alex kissed him, hard, like he’d been wanting to all night. Then again, softer, their lips sliding together in a way that was everything Henry had been desperate for and too terrified to admit. Alex’s hands were warm on his jaw, fingers brushing up into his hair, and for a moment all Henry could do was lean into him and feel everything, want, relief, terror, dizzy happiness, crash together at once.

    Summary

    P.S.: Comment on my arse and tongue in a single message? Is this how American boys flirt?

    ***

    ps: presumptuous much? sorry i’m not obsessed with you like everyone else your majesty.

    ***

    P.S.: I want to believe your post script, but something about the fact that you take time out of your busy day to come to your neighbouring department just to antagonise me makes me think otherwise.

    ***

    Piss off.
    You do the same with me.

    ***

    And when did I deny being completely enamoured by you?

    When Alex finds his misplaced coffee in the trash, he writes a scathing note. What he doesn't anticipate is a reply.

    Summary

    bestman!henry, and weddingplanner!alex.

    In which Philip is getting married and asks Henry to be his best man. Henry very reluctantly agrees, but what he absolutely does not agree to is being the one stuck dealing with all of the tasks that Philip “simply does not have time for.”

    The one thing that his brother did manage to do was hire a wedding planner, Alex, who's not only extremely charming and, well…much too handsome than what should be considered humanly possible but who, for some reason, seems to be doing everything in his power to make the situation more bearable for Henry. What starts out as a bond over their mutual annoyance with Philip and his outrageous requests turns into something completely unexpected and much deeper, and for once, Henry might just have to indulge himself.

    or: henry and alex plan a wedding together and just might find love of their own along the way ♥️

    Summary

    Bea’s to his left, speaking frantically on the phone with who Henry hopes is the fire brigade or someone else trained to deal with these— situations. In front of him, Pez is fumbling frustratedly with the water hose, showcasing his colorful vocabulary with a flourish of jerky hand movements and chaotic pacing. On either side of the fence, his neighbors are peaking over the sides to ask if everything’s okay, and Henry feels the resolution to make a good first impression crumbling and slipping rapidly out of his grasp. Even David watches on from inside the house, his sage eyes and patriotic bowtie appraising the scene and looking back to Henry as if to say I told you so.

    And the fryer — the fryer itself is up in flames, thick gray smoke swirling up into the air and soaring high above the tree line now. In the distance, the echo of sirens. Henry may faint right here, in the middle of his backyard at his new home before he's even unpacked, with all the neighbors and his family and friends watching on, on his first official American Thanksgiving. It is, by all means, not what he’d envisioned for the day.

    Summary

    “Let’s do this,” he says.

    “Let’s,” Alex agrees, pushing down on the handle until the door swings open. “After you, boyfriend.”

    This is most definitely not his finest idea. Henry usually practices much better self preservation skills. Much better common sense skills. He steps over the threshold of Alex’s room and it feels like sealing his fate.

    They’re doing this for Alex to win over their bosses in a lighthearted game with a harmless lie, but Henry can’t fight off the bitter knowledge that, regardless of how tonight goes, Alex will be fine, but Henry has so much to lose.

    Summary

    Sure, Alex can admit in the deepest recesses of his mind, at two in the morning, when the Liszt is playing forlornly like some kind of bugle call for grief, that whoever the fuck lives next to him is on another level with the keys.
    Or
    Alex has no idea who his piano playing neighbor is, but Alex knows one thing for certain… This means war.

    Summary

    “That floor doesn’t look like it’s very comfortable on your knees, is all.”

    Henry leans forward, scooping out a piece of brownie that got under the counter, somehow. “I wouldn’t worry about that—my knees are quite used to it, I assure you.”

    A ringing silence follows this pronouncement, during which Henry focuses very hard on opening a trap door directly into hell with the power of his mind.

    Or, five times Henry puts his foot in his mouth in front of his customer crush, and one time he puts his dick in his customer crush's mouth instead doesn't.

    Summary

    Alex doesn’t know if it's his tone, or something in the air, or the fact Alex is calling him when he’s just right up stairs, but he can tell Henry feels something is wrong immediately.

    “Alex, what's wrong?”

    He cringes, whether at himself or the pain, he’s not sure. “Okay, so don’t get mad.”

    “Alex–”

    “I need you to come outside.”

    He can literally hear Henry’s blood pressure rise. “Why?”

    “Okay, so like, I broke my arm.”

    “What?!”

    Summary

    “So what you’re telling me is that you’ve begun some kind of weird aggressive mating ritual with an English professor,” Nora says around obscenely large bites of her burrito.

    “How the fuck—” Alex splutters, because he honestly has no clue how she came to that conclusion. “We’re not flirting. We’re at war.”

    (It starts with a polite request to erase the whiteboards at the end of class. It gets a lot more ridiculous before it ends.)

    Summary

    The only problem was that when he accepted the request from an Alexander Gabriel Claremont-Diaz, he was not ready for that man to have the most burning feverish perfect chocolate brown eyes, featherlike curly hair and the most devilish smirk he has ever seen.

    Summary

    When it gets like this — the too much of it all, the drowning in the deadlines, the anxiety about assignments, the panic over passing — Alex knows he can walk two doors down and have that stress immediately seeped from his body.

    The best thing about it, however, is the fact that he can do the very same for Henry.

    Or, Alex and Henry's casual arrangement has (unsurprisingly) shifted into something... more.

    Summary

    Connections is always the puzzle he looks at last, when he’s sitting at his kitchen counter finishing the final dregs of his third morning coffee. He shouldn’t leave it until last, but it’s almost become a barometer for his day.

    That’s when he gets fucking mad. When the purple category is an entirely made-up grouping like words that rhyme with random kitchen utensils, or vegetables with an extra letter for no reason, or items John Lennon probably carried in his wallet.

    And that’s what he said, verbatim, to The New York Times: That it’s arrogant, and elitist, and that people don’t enjoy attempting puzzles when the answers only exist inside the creator’s head.

    ---

    Alex goes viral when he rants to the New York Times about how much he hates Connections. H Fox, Connections Manager, has some fun with it.

    Summary

    Alex has seen and heard shocking things in his life given the nature of his job, but none of them is as shocking as the sight of best-selling author Henry Fox at his doorstep, alarmingly looking like shit and clutching his side.

    “Hey.” Is all he says before he uncharacteristically collapses into Alex's house with a deafening thud.

    Summary

    Alex is on his holiday break, which is why he signs up to take on the bulk of helping his sister with her charity market stall. And while he does actually like the bustle and interactions with people that come with the job, he will admit only to himself that what he enjoys the most is antagonising his market nemesis, who, inexplicably with Alex’s ‘fuck you’ attitude, keeps coming around to make a daily purchase.

    Summary

    Alex narrowed his eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose. “Oh, for—” Alex strode over, exasperated affection burning in him like a torch. He simply reached down, plucked Henry straight off the bench like a misbehaving kitten, and slung him over his shoulder as though he weighed no more than a bag of flour.

    “Alexander Claremont-Díaz!” Henry erupted, the sound scandalised enough to wake the entire east wing. “Unhand me this instant! I am a prince! You cannot—oh heavens, not in the corridor—” Henry wriggled furiously, kicking his slippered feet at the air. “This is undignified! Treasonous!”

    “I demand—” Henry tried, before Alex gave him a light swat to the back of the thigh.

    “You demand bed. You demand broth. And if you don’t stop flailing, Your Grace, you’re going to demand a new nightshirt, because you’re about to split this one wide open.”

    “Barbarian!” Henry cried.

    Alex gave him a another swat on the backside this time.

    “Barbarian?” Alex said, tightening his grip and marching away from the mountain of scrolls. “Barbaric is you coughing up a lung in council again because you think ink is a food group.”

    Summary

    Henry thinks on it for a moment. “I write a romance. You write literary fiction. Whoever sells first, wins?”

    Alex grins, suddenly feeling more invigorated about writing than he has over the last year combined. “And because I’m feeling generous, I’ll even teach you how.”

    “How to write a romance?” Henry asks, eyebrows shooting up toward his hairline once more.

    Alex nods. “During the week, we work. We write. Whatever. But on Saturdays, I’ll take you out and show you how a real romantic lead does it.”

    Henry clears his throat and the tops of his cheeks darken again in a way that makes Alex feel far more satisfied than it probably should. “And on Sundays, I show you how I conduct research for my writing.”

    He sticks out a hand for Henry to shake. “You’ve got yourself a deal.”

    The smile on Henry’s face as he takes Alex’s hand feels dangerous in a way that he can’t quite place. “Deal.”

    Or, the one where Alex and Henry are (only kind of) rival authors who wind up living next door to each other in the same beach town all summer and nothing goes as planned.
