    Summary

    Alex is the best pitcher in the league for his unpredictability. The only issue is that it means his catchers can’t read him either. With another year coming around, the team needs a new catcher- one that’ll match Alex and lift him to a whole new level. Falling in love with said catcher was NOT a part of the plan - but really, when does Alex ever listen?

    Summary

    “And the grump when you thought I read your arrest report? You told me TK didn’t stand for anything.”
    “It doesn’t,” TK says. He sighs and closes his eyes. “But it used to. It used to be my initials, but now it’s my name.”
    “Ah,” Carlos says, “And legally your name is still—”
    “A girls’ name,” TK says tightly.
    “Right,” Carlos says, his annoyingly neutral expression finally softening. “Which explains why wouldn’t want me to see it. But you do prefer to go by TK? That’s the name you chose for yourself?”
    “What—What?” As much as he tries not to, TK shrinks into himself.
    Carlos puts his burger down. “You thought I didn’t know,” he says. “TK—”
    “How do you know? I’ve been agonising over how to tell you for weeks.”
    Carlos tilts his head with a soft, curious smile playing at his lips. “We might have had a few layers of clothes between us but we’ve been all kinds of on top of each other lately,” he says.


    TK comes out as trans before he and Owen make the move to Austin, and TK still gets his supportive-as-all-hell fire family and hot-as-all-hell boyfriend. Featuring an abundance of comfort, cuddles, communication!! and so, so much love.

    Summary

    Alex looks at him, like Henry’s a speck of dirt on his pristine chinos. “Why would June send you to check up on me?”

    “Because I’m her best friend and you’re her brother?”

    “I always said she has bad taste.”

    “Well,” Henry smiles. It feels as placid on his face as it probably looks. “I would say the same thing, but family doesn’t account for one’s taste, unfortunately.”

    in which henry fox is june’s childhood best friend and alex claremont-diaz is june’s younger brother. as the years pass, they tolerate each other at best and are downright destructive at worst. until they begin falling into each other's beds.

    Summary

    Henry should have known, probably, that accepting a job offer from Pez would have its nuances. It’s his own fault that he hadn’t asked more questions, that he hadn’t regarded it as a red flag when he’d had to sign several very thick NDA’s at the onboarding, when Pez had smiled so big and so secretively when they went out to celebrate afterward that Henry had to physically look away from it. Though he’s new to the city, he’d thought that working as an accountant wouldn’t offer all that many opportunities for any sort of overly odd, eclectic jobs.

    So he’d shown up on his first day at the provided address, a big, nondescript brick building in front of him with a duffel bag full of his sign-on papers, his computer, and a framed photo of his dog, David, ready to take up its rightful place on yet another boring, blank desk.

    He’d made it all of two steps inside the door before realizing that he’d just accepted a contract working for some kind of sex club. He’d stood his ground despite the burning flush that bloomed on his cheeks and then, miraculously, he’d stayed.

    Summary

    In hindsight, Alex should probably have known that letting Henry borrow his clothes for the weekend would absolutely wreck him. But Henry had fretted about his wardrobe being too formal for a casual visit to the lake house, and Alex has developed somewhat of a Pavlovian response to the way Henry’s brows furrow and his mouth pinches when he’s anxious. Once the words “You can just wear my stuff, no worries,” were out there, there’d been no stuffing them back into his mouth.

    Here’s the thing Alex should’ve taken into consideration: Henry would look hot dressed in a garbage bag. So the morning after their lake house arrival, when Henry steps out of the shower and into a pair of Alex’s swim trunks and Alex’s Arrels Barcelona shirt, Alex takes one look at him and drops his phone.

    (Movieverse; Henry wears Alex's clothes at the lake house and Alex reacts accordingly.)
