    Summary

    Three weeks. Henry’s known the guy three fucking weeks and now they’re getting married? And Alex is… what? Supposed to be happy for him? Play the supportive best friend like this isn’t the craziest thing he’s ever known Henry to do in almost seven years of friendship? He can’t do that. The swirling nausea in his gut because the man he’s in love with is engaged aside, it’s just – you don’t even know someone after three weeks. How did this guy charm Henry into marriage in less than a month?

    Alex isn’t even mad. He just can’t understand.

    --

    For almost ten years, since they shared a dorm room at NYU, Alex and Henry have been inseparable.

    For almost ten years, Alex has been in love with Henry.

    Seven years into their friendship, Henry throws himself into a new relationship headlong, and Alex is at a loss when he drops the news that they're engaged.

    With less than a month til Henry says his vows, Alex is running out of time.

    Summary

    “Seems like my liege was caught in a situation where he’d rather the ground swallow him whole.” Pez nods towards a spot to the side, and Alex follows his gaze. He spots Henry easily – a tall lighthouse of tousled blond hair – talking to a girl who is clearly into him. His expression looks perfectly polite, but he’s subtly leaning away, and he looks tense.

    So, Alex makes an impulsive decision.

    Whatever happens, this is going to be fun.

    ***

    Or: Alex is so very definitely straight, so pretending to be Henry’s boyfriend to get him out of an awkward situation should just be a fun little pastime - except that he doesn't really want to stop, and he has no idea why. But maybe it's okay to not think too hard and let himself go with the flow, for once.

    Summary

    “Leaving so soon?”

    Henry curses, crashing into the kitchen island, and dropping his bag at his feet. Fuck, he thinks, tearing his gaze across the room to where Alex’s dad is sitting on the couch with a tumbler of what Henry assumes is scotch.

    “Congressman,” Henry murmurs, heart in his throat.

    --

    Or, Oscar and Henry have a talk (when Oscar catches Henry trying to sneak out of the lake house.)
