    Summary

    "I have just the man for you. One of our master stylists," Percy says. He brings Alex through the main salon area to a small back room with just three chairs and tells him to take a seat. There aren't any windows in here, but it's overflowing with plants and vines in all different shades of green, giving the feel of a secret garden.

    Moments later, Alex is faced with a tall, young, blond man who is objectively beautiful, all symmetrical lines and a tight little waist that expands out to a broad chest and shoulders. A man who immediately puts his hands in Alex's hair, brushing strands aside, finger-combing, tugging this way and that. It's really nice, and Alex is feeling some type of way about being touched like this when no one has touched him in months. Years, a small voice in the back of his head pipes up, but he ignores it.

    "What are you looking for today, Senator?" His voice is like silk. Alex blinks at the man in the mirror in front of them. He can see nipples peaked through his tight black t-shirt. Fucking hell.

    Alex is a newly elected senator. Henry is a much younger hair stylist at Senate Hair Care Services. Everything is going to be...fine.

    Summary

    “How about this,” Alex says, smug and overconfident, “for every awful date you have where they leave you high and dry, I’ll finish the job.”

    Henry’s face, smushed into the bend of his arm, stays alarmingly still.

    “Excuse me.”

    The beer bottle on Alex’s stomach begins to wobble, and Alex only narrowly catches it before it dumps over on his chest. He rolls over and leans on one of his arms.

    “I mean. That’s what friends are for, right?”

    Silence stretches over the living room, Henry’s face hovering above him from the couch. Alex stares at the rug until he can’t avoid Henry’s gaze anymore, then blinks up at him slowly.

    “Right,” Henry echoes eventually.

    Summary

    In hindsight, Henry isn’t sure why he thought Alex wouldn’t want to correspond about this over email. The man has a sticker on his laptop—his personal one, not his work computer, blessedly—that says I’M A FREAK IN THE SHEETS! in egregious rainbow Comic Sans over a picture of an Excel spreadsheet. Henry was fully aware of what he was getting himself into.

    --

    after agreeing to see where things go with his coworker, long time romantic infatuation, and already-in-a-relationship alex, henry gets himself a little in over his head. luckily, when he's busy giving that to alex, it's hardly the first thing on his mind.

    Summary

    Still, Henry shakes his head and teases, “Whatever will you do without all those figure skaters and their short skirts around?”

    “Fuck off, asshole!” Alex huffs with a laugh, shoving him hard in the shoulder, only to hook his arm around Henry’s neck and drag him closer. “Only thing I need for my Olympic experience is four gold medals. Besides, I got you to bug the shit out of. What more do I need?”

    (Henry isn't expecting much out of his third Olympics—still climbing up the world ranks after an injury, he's not in the medal conversation, no matter how much his best friend and chief competitor, Alex Claremont-Diaz, might insist otherwise. After all, Alex is far and away the gold medal favourite, ranked first in the world and damn near uncatchable on a piste lately. Between that and the fact that they're hundreds of kilometres away from most of the other Olympic venues, he expects the games to be relatively quiet. Low key. Downright unremarkable.

    He couldn't be more wrong.)

    Summary

    “Oxford, like twenty years ago—” Twenty-one, actually. “I was there for a term abroad. We had a class together.” Alex huffs a disbelieving laugh and pushes a hand back through his curls. “We, uh, well. There was that party after final exams…”

    “I’m so sorry, I don’t recall that one” Henry lies, flashing an apologetic smile. “I don’t remember the details of most of those uni parties these days.”

    (Twenty years ago, Henry met—and let go of—his soulmate. Now he's in his 40s, with a new job in a new city, and certainly not expecting said soulmate to come barreling into his life again. A small white lie seems like the simplest way to keep things from getting awkward, but real life has a way of getting complicated.)

    Summary

    Henry’s relationship with Javier is in trouble. It needs a spark, and Henry hopes the dancing lessons he’s registering for will provide one.

    But his attraction to his instructor Alex is immediate and undeniable — not a spark but a full-fledged fire. It’s causing him to question what he thinks about his past, his present, and who he wants to be in the future.

    Henry doesn’t know if can control the fire, now that it's burning. Or if he even wants to.

    Summary

    On paper, Henry has what most people could only ever dream of having: a perfect, charmed life where he should want for nothing; and yet, he so rarely gets what he actually wants.

    And Alex— well, Alex wants to give him everything.

    Or: They choose each other. No matter what it takes.

    Summary

    “I’m just saying— we know you, Alejandro. I've ran the odds and with your personal history of decision-making and impulse control, there’s a less than four percent chance you of all people didn’t shoot your shot. Even if he’s in the closet. Even if he’s supposedly straight. Even if he’s a prince. You love a good story.”

    Doesn’t he ever. Too bad he’s never going to get the chance to tell this one.

    Or: Alex returns to real life after crossing the actual Prince of England off his totally superfluous valid No Consequences Sex List. It does not go quite like he expected.

    Summary

    Booktoker Alex didn’t mean to start an internet feud with beloved writer Henry Fox, it just kind of… happened. One off-hand comment on a TikTok live, and suddenly he’s public enemy number one. But when he finally reads the book he trashed, all he can do is hope for Henry’s forgiveness, and maybe, somehow, a chance to win his heart.

    Summary

    There’s a blonde woman plastered to Alex’s front. Ten minutes ago, he’d been grinding up against a brunette man half a foot shorter than him. Ten minutes before that, he’d been laughing with a red head at the bar. And ten minutes before that?

    Ten minutes before that, he’d had that megawatt smile directed at Henry, laughing at something June said. And then he’d wandered off to get them more drinks, and now he’s off, giving his attention to people who are, quite frankly, not good enough for him, and Henry? Henry’s — christ, okay, Henry’s jealous.

    Henry’s fucking fuming.

    Or, Henry wants his boyfriend back.

    Summary

    “Hunter’s entering again,” Alex explains before Henry can finish, “and somehow, that fucker beat both of us, even though he has half the skill of both of us combined. We’ve dominated the bake off year after year. If we want to see him go down, this is the only way to ensure that.”

    Henry blinks. “So you want to —”

    “Gang up so we can beat the shit out of Hunter, yeah. Were you even listening to anything I just said?”

    Or, Alex and Henry are rival bakers day-to-day, but a newcomer in the Park Slope Christmas Cookie Bake-Off has them becoming a lot closer than originally planned.

    Summary

    He can’t stop thinking about the fucking ankle. About what it represents. The sensuality of the muscles and tendons underneath the flesh, begging for the press of his fingerprints, the indention of his teeth, those same ankles crossed and pressed into Alex’s lower back, the sweet symphony of two bodies finding solace and pleasure in one another even if only until morning light breaks through the curtains.

    He wants to get fucked, basically.

    +

    newly out as bi, alex decides the best way to commemorate the occasion is to sleep with the most well-endowed guy on campus. henry thinks he might be insane, and isn't quite sure what that says about him for being the one to catch feelings when this whole thing was just supposed to be practice in the first place. it all works out. eventually.

    Summary

    “I’ve learned not to waste my time pining after straight men,” Henry says simply, “no matter how often they seem to turn up in my life.”

    That stops Alex short. It’s not like he’s purposely seeking Henry out. It’s not like he’s trying to be an asshole and make Henry fall for him. There’s just something about him — Alex finds himself pulled toward Henry like he’s an eight-page essay not due for another month. That’s just how Alex always is: he dives headfirst into everything without a second thought, and he doesn’t stop until he’s deemed it a job well done.

    This particular instance, though, is getting confusing. He’s not sure what he wants from Henry. He doesn’t know why he feels so drawn to him, or why he’s started wondering what Henry’s doing when he’s in class, or why the memory of Henry grinding in a stranger’s lap suddenly appears when he’s about to fall asleep.

    Or, Alex meets Henry while studying abroad and has some very not-straight feelings about him.

    Summary

    Alex knows a lot of words, okay? He got a 2350 on his SATs and was the kind of brother that sat with June and suggested letters while she read the dictionary for fun.

    So it's just really terrible that his first sight of Henry (his first in-person view since the Olympics) at Prince Philip’s wedding—tux, stupid sash, floppy blond hair unfortunately tamed by gel—is enough to knock all the words from Alex’s brain except:

    Oh and fuck.

    Or:

    Alex and Henry meet while freaking out in the bathroom at the Rio Olympics, which changes everything.
