Summary
Alex has somehow made it into the most elite sex club on this side of the city, and so far he’s gawked at one (1) naked man—a downright gorgeous man, in his defense—from a distance and gone non-verbal and introspective on a couch by himself.
Truly riveting stuff.

Summary
“Why does that work so well?” Henry asks, wiping tears from his eyes.
Percy, not as easily impressed, answers impudently, “It doesn’t.”
“She’s beautiful,” Henry murmurs, voice dripping with awe.
“Look at his shoulders,” Pez practically hisses. “Darling you are gay. That is a man.”
Henry shrugs. “Maybe some of us are broadening our horizons and open to more complex experiences.”

Summary
“I’m kinda worried about you,” Alex admits, because at this point in their relationship, lying to Henry would be absurd.
“Worried?” Henry reaches out to cup his cheek, thumb brushing across his facial hair. “I’m alright, love. We really had a nice day.”
“I’m glad.” Alex takes his hand and kisses each knuckle, glancing back up at him. “It’s just, you’ve been really tired. And you were gagging at your toothbrush. And… the blueberry ice cream.”
Henry looks at him, uncomprehending. “I suppose my tummy has been a bit off, but I don’t…” he hesitates, “what are you trying to say?”
Alex glances down at Henry’s stomach, wincing when Henry follows his gaze.
“Henry, you’re kind of… acting pregnant.”

Summary
Then Henry’s phone rang. He stopped mid-stride, reached into his pocket, and pulled out his phone. Raised it to his ear. And that’s when it happened.
The sleeve.
It moved.
Just a little. Just enough. It slid maybe an inch—barely more than a breath—and something underneath it caught the light.
Alex squinted. Sat up straighter. Leaned a little over his desk.
Was that… ink?
No, come on. That had to be a shadow or something. A stray pen mark? A coffee stain? But as Henry turned slightly, it caught the light again. Definitely not a coffee stain.
Alex’s jaw dropped.
Was that a tattoo?
No. No way. Not Henry Fox, HR's golden boy, the man who breathed punctuality and probably had emergency spreadsheets laminated in his sock drawer. Mr. Regulation Tie Length. Mr. "Let's Circle Back On That."
But it was a tattoo. Or the start of one. A black curve just under the cuff. A line. A flick of something—like a wing? Or a piece of script? Hard to tell. But it was there.Or Alex thinks Henry is attractive but boring until he discovers more and more of his tattoos

Summary
When his birthday postcard arrives, Alex doesn't expect it to come with a letter from a stranger. And when he writes back, he certainly doesn't expect a reply.
But one letter turns to two, and then into dozens more. What begins as a mistake turns into something neither of them could have predicted. Something worth waiting for.
“I think I’ve been falling for you since you were just ink on paper.”
Or: the modern letter-writing AU.

Summary
The Brownstone stirs for the first time since its original owners built it on an ordinary Tuesday in October. The last sigh of summer air follows the realtor into its entryway, desperate to escape the chill of an autumn breeze right behind it.
The buyer has an intriguing mix of seldom-used authority and a dark shadow of grief at the foundation of his soul, but also love – so much love. It swirls around him in long ribbons, as though the shining tendrils refuse to go further than arm’s reach for fear they’d get left behind. It hasn’t seen love stream so loyally, so stubbornly, behind a human in its own many years of caring for its humans. That must have been what woke The Brownstone.
Magic calls to magic, after all.

Summary
He hates that Alex can see all the ugly parts of him now, knows how weak and stupid he is, instead of the strong and reliable friend he’s tried to be for the last five years, since Henry moved here and accidentally stole Alex’s favourite spot at their local coffee shop.
“I’m sorry…” Henry says eventually, when he can’t stand the silence for a moment longer. It’s maybe the longest he’s ever known Alex to voluntarily be quiet for, and by the five minute mark it’s unnerving him.
“Hey,” Alex replies, reaching over to curl his uninjured fingers around Henry’s wrist, pressing lightly against the pulse point there, “you’ve got nothing to apologise for. Not ever, but especially not this, alright?”

He watches Alex’s bright smile as he talks to Bea and Leo, the way that Ellen and Catherine have their heads bent close together and how Nora is talking with Pez, Oscar and June. He feels something catch in his throat, something blooming in his chest with such strength that it threatens to burst its way out. He never, in a million years, thought he would have this.

Summary
It was a simple prospect — buying a new suit. But Henry had a nasty little habit of turning simple items into complete chores. He always had, blaming it on natural anxiety, coping, and other words gleaned from his patient-if-long-suffering therapist. The core of it was truly a lack of necessity and a lame gesture at thrift.
“Please,” Pez began between sips of latte. “For the love of all that is good in this world.” He tapped the business card set between them on the cafe table. “Call the gent.”
__________________________Alex Claremont-Diaz is a tailor with an upscale London shop. Henry Fox is an escort in need of new suits, and hopelessly in love with the man who sews them.

Summary
The first time it happened, it was a Tuesday.
14 Across: Sherlock Holmes author. 3 letters.
Well that’s easy, Arthur Conan Doyle.
Alex raced through the rest of the crossword, a fairly simple one even for a Tuesday. There was a Jane Austen clue that might have stumped him a few weeks ago, but he'd borrowed June's copy of Persuasion last time he stayed overnight at her place, so he'd have something to read on his longer commute to work that day.

Henry Fox is a crossword creator with a very big crush.

Summary
“Caramelton John, what the fuck, who named these?” the man laughs, his loud voice circling in Henry’s ears, low and rich.
Years of planning and ideas, months of blood, sweat and literal tears to set up shop in a foreign country, and hours of back breaking work to serve the community — for free — on their opening day, all for some ungrateful arse to make fun of him for it. Henry feels his jaw clench involuntarily, the tightness in his mouth matching the ache in his chest. He’s bone tired and frustrated and now he’s unspeakably angry.
Pez, who has saved Henry’s life in more ways than he can count, and who has not asked for a single thing all day, turns and says “Hen, dear, could you serve these last few for me?”
Henry inhales deeply through his nose, turns his back to the customers, before he looks Pez firmly in the eye and says with zero hesitation, “No.”

Summary
“Nora,” Alex whispered urgently, leaning over the small table where she was scrolling through her phone. “I need to tell you something. But you have to swear you won’t tell anyone. Like, legally-binding secrecy.”
Nora didn’t even look up. “If this is about how you can’t find the break room peanut butter, it’s in the cabinet, top shelf.”
“No!” Alex groaned, pulling out the chair across from her and sitting down. “This is serious.”
That got her attention. She locked her phone, her eyebrows raised. “Alright, Claremont-Diaz. Spill.”
Alex hesitated, glancing over his shoulder one last time. Then, in a dramatic whisper, he said, “I’m fake-dating Henry Fox.”
Nora blinked. Once. Twice.
Then she screamed.Or Alex Claremont-Diaz is an intern in the Legal Department at Okonjo-Fox Publishers and somehow he ends up fake dating his very cold, very attractive boss, Henry Fox during a high-profile gala.

“God, you’re fucking dripping,” Alex shifts his head, presumably to get a look as his arm loosens around Henry’s waist, his hand slipping down to press two fingers against him, the sides of them gently grazing either side the growth poking through the soaked fabric. “You always get like this or is this all for me?” Henry can hear the shit-eating grin on his stupid, ridiculous, ugly, beautiful face.
“I’m just wet, Alex, I don’t keep a log of what men cause the most-“
“-just me, then.”

Summary
"Just, you know," Henry says. "If your mum weren't the president and you were just a normal bloke living a normal life, what things might be like? What you'd be doing instead?"
After being discovered on Instagram as a teenager, Alex Diaz is thriving as a social media influencer and model who just landed a high profile, high fashion contract with Calvin Klein. Alex can get any girl he wants, and he’s loving it. Meanwhile, British poet Henry Fox has just arrived in L.A. to kick off a North American tour promoting his new, steamy book of gay erotic poetry, and he’s attracting a lot of attention.
Bad blood is immediately sparked between them when Henry blows Alex off at their first meeting. Several tabloid rumors and an Instagram tantrum later, Alex and Henry are reluctantly thrust together to make nice, resulting in a grudging friendship and a magnetism between them that Alex can't explain. Why is Henry's poetry making Alex feel like this? And just what is it about Henry Fox that gets to him so much?- Language:
