Summary
Alex bounces when his back hits the mattress. He lets out a soft, “Fuck me,” at the force of it.
Henry stands over him for several breaths, staring. He drinks the sight of Alex laying on the mattress in front of him and says, “That can be arranged.”

Summary
He’s in too deep now. He can’t turn around and say ‘actually, sorry, I made that up. Free stuff, please?’ So he’s forced to walk himself to the gallows with a stiff smile.
Henry glances up when his shadow seems to cover his book, frowning. “Alex?”
“I need you to pretend to be my husband.”
“Excuse me?”
“I fucked up and now I’m going to look like a fucking psychopath if you don’t walk back with me to that booth covered in flowers and tell the very nice lady that we are on our honeymoon.”
Alex loves free shit. These are the lengths he's willing to go to in order to get them.

Summary
"So," Henry says as Alex's brain makes a valiant effort to reboot because he's staring at Henry fucking Fox, the man he has spent the better part of a decade staring at through a small author's photo. It doesn't even begin to do him justice and he's only now fully realising it, "your daughter is a fan of my work?"
"Huge," Alex chokes out, struggling to not make a fool out of himself. "Dragged me here."
Henry raises an eyebrow, face utterly amused as he says, "Really? Because I could have sworn I just heard her tell Issa that her 'lame dad' forced her to come here."
"Huh,”Alex says, "Kids, am I right?"
Alex's daughter is growing up, a fact he is entirely not okay with.
She's becoming a teenager, thinks he's the most boring, lamest dude alive and wants nothing to do with the traditions they had while she was growing up - especially reading Henry Fox's books.
But when Henry Fox begins a reading programme at their local library, she is sat in the front row. Because she wants to be, not because Alex is forcing her. Not because Alex is slightly in love with a man he's never met, the first person to actually see him.
Obviously.

Summary
Alex shakes his head as everyone disappears into the opening of the maze, the sound of their overlapping voices fading. He loves them all—really, he does—but he originally invited Henry, and only Henry, to pick a fall-themed activity for them to do on a date.
Or, at least, Alex thought it was going to be a date.
Henry didn’t think so, evidently. He invited everyone else in their friend group within twenty-four hours of Alex asking him out.
Trying to ask him out.
Fuck, Alex used to be better at this.
Something about Henry, who got dropped into Alex’s life by June a little more than a year ago, has him completely off of his game. Alex has been flustered by him since the moment they met, unable to form complete sentences in front of the most beautiful man he’s ever seen.
So maybe Alex didn’t use the word date when he asked, not explicitly.
He thought it was fucking implied, though.

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
“Come on, angel,” he takes a step forward, staring up at Henry with a smirk. He knows that if they had any need for oxygen, Henry’s chest would be heaving. “You know you want to.”
“Wanting it isn’t the question,” Henry says tightly, only the slightest sliver of blue still visible in his eyes. “We can’t.”
Alex knows he has him, knows that it’s only moments until he finally gets what he wants. What he’s always fucking wanted. He just needs to push.
“Oh but we can,” Alex’s tongue darts out to wet his lips and he watches in glee as Henry’s eyes drop to capture the motion. “You want me. Come get me.”
Alex has hated Henry for a lifetime - but he's wanted to fuck him for twice as long.

Summary
“I don’t think anyone will be offended if two... very close friends decide to try it out, H. I certainly won’t.” Alex laughs when Henry fixes him with a half-hearted glare.
“And you felt the need to track me down and show me this on a random Tuesday morning because...” Henry trails off with a perfectly arched brow. It’s infuriatingly attractive.
Alex braces himself on the table and leans in, stopping with his mouth an inch away from Henry’s ear. He can almost hear him holding his breath. “Because I want to take my time with you, sweetheart,” Alex whispers sweetly. “And this is the perfect opportunity.”

"Your honour, that's cap."
"No, no. Being for real. For real."
And then simply.
"Henry."

Summary
Alex pauses, then says, “Truth.”
“Interesting play,” Nora muses. “But okay. Answer this: have you ever seen Henry naked and, if so, what did you think?”
Henry nearly chokes on his own saliva.
Bea whines. “Could we not?”
“Too late,” Pez points out, tilting his head at Alex. “Answer the question.”
“It was two questions,” Alex argues, his knee bouncing. “That’s against the rules.”
“Answer the second one then.”
Henry looks over at June, who seems suddenly invested in their game. She meets his gaze with a twisted smile and soft eyes, like she knows.
“I don't know if it's fair to—”
Nora interrupts him. “Answer, Alex. That's the game.”

Summary
“She truly is your daughter, Alex,” Henry sighs, defeated.
“Fuck off, sweetheart,” he laughs, a soundbite of the sun. Henry forces himself not to physically react, the term of endearment sweet and menacingly familiar coming from Alex’s lips. It’s been years. “You know they’re useful.”
“Ah yes, eyelashes, truly a formidable instrument in managing international relations.”
Alex grins, and Henry is too late to catch the slightest downward lilt on the corner of his mouth, “Worked on you once, didn’t it?”
Oh, did that ache.
(Much had happened since the time Henry had told Alex to leave. Alex had passed the bar, gotten married, had the most beautiful daughter. And Henry, well. He stayed right where he was.)

Go In Hard, Come Out Wet (an Olympic story) by dani_dabbles

Summary
If you ask Alex, it’s the cardboard beds’ fault. Who truly thought anti-sex beds would stop the world’s top athletes from having a bit of fun between the most intense moments of their lives?
Also, telling extremely competitive, goal-oriented people “Don’t do this” isn’t a warning…it’s a goddamn challenge.
_____________________________
While competing at their second Olympics, Alex and his teammate Liam decide to have a little competition of their own: an ABC hookup challenge. The rules are simple. They have the 16 days of the Olympic Games to sleep their way through the alphabet. Whoever gets to the furthest letter by the Closing Ceremony wins.
Alex starts off strong with Astrid, then follows her with Brigid, Caroline, Daniela, Eleanor, Fatima, & Gianna. The letter H should be easy by finding a Hannah or Hallie. That is until Alex is introduced to Henry.

Summary
He dials the number and puts the phone to his ear, nibbling on his lower lip as it rings steadily.
“Alex here, how can I help?”
Henry freezes, the phone still pressed to his ear at the familiar voice.
“Uh…hello? Anyone there?”
Henry’s hands shake as he hangs up the phone, tossing it into the dirt beside his parsnip seed. All he can think of as he stares at the darkened screen a few feet away is - stupid bloody tank top.
Henry doesn't expect much when his grandmother dies; perhaps her cabin in Vail or her collection of antique teacups that he always had his eye on. Instead, he finds himself the sole owner of his late grandfather's farm, hidden away in a small town in the middle of nowhere.
Determined to make something of himself, he decides to settle down there, do up his grandfather's house and do something with his life rather than just hide away like he always has.
He will keep his head down, not make waves, and get the job done.
A very sexy handyman is determined to make this very difficult.

Summary
For a long moment Katya looks at her, blinking a few times. “Do you wanna go with me?” she then asks.
“What?”
“I think you deserve a do-over.”
Trixie feels herself frowning. “Why?”
“Because you seem like a very interesting person, and such a perfectly good date opportunity shouldn’t be wasted,” Katya replies right away.
(Trixie gets stood up on a date. Luckily, she meets someone who's happy to fill in.)
