Summary
"Promise me one thing?" Henry broke the silence with a trembling voice, dancing around the knot in his throat.
"Anything," Alex replied in the same whispering tone, his words traveling to Henry's lips with the softness of a breeze.
"Promise you won't forget me?" Henry's plea came inflamed with vulnerability, insecurity, and fear playing in every fiber of his being.
"Not even if I tried," Alex assured, bringing his lips close for a kiss without contact, a seal of sincerity that transcended letters and words.
Henry wasn't finished. He held Alex's gaze with an intensity that defied the barriers between them.
"Promise we will be the Florentino and Fermina of our time? That no matter how much time passes, you will still love me?"
-
Henry is the future king of England, and he has to fiercely fight monarchy to live an unexpected, but devastating love story.

Summary
“Alex, my love, why are you wearing your court suit?”
“Because I’m courting your family?” Alex quips, but it comes out more like a question. Henry is standing outside his apartment, looking incredibly fond, but otherwise very casual. He has on jeans, for one, and a soft sweater that Alex kind of wants to rub his face against.
“Remember when we agreed to be honest with each other?” Henry asks, pushing his way into Alex’s apartment. He makes his way directly to Alex’s bedroom, and the fact that Henry even knows where his bedroom is, the fact that he moves around Alex’s apartment like he belongs here, makes something incredibly warm settle in Alex’s chest.

Summary
“It’s not about that,” Alex says, voice stable. He leans back in, still cleaning wounds, a crease in his forehead growing as he reveals more bruises as he wipes away blood.
“You manage to act like it,” Henry grits out, pushing through the pain.
“What the fuck does that mean?” Alex snaps back, but the withering look in his eyes is a stark different than his hands resting delicate against Henry’s body, and Henry can’t fucking think.
It’s a shock, then, when Alex’s voice comes in as angry, clear as day, “Who the fuck did this to you?”
OR
a cliche of angry love confessions

Summary
Bea tells him he’s lonely in the city, without her or Pez around. He argues back that he’s alone, not lonely. Alone means he has time and space to think. Lonely, on the other hand, is an effect, an all-encompassing melancholy which Henry certainly doesn’t experience; he has the children and staff at the music studio, and sometimes Pez visits from Oxford. And of course he has David, who does accompany him when it doesn’t interrupt the dog’s nap schedule. On these walks, Henry is alone, not lonely.
Or, a chance meeting with a stranger changes piano teacher Henry Fox's life.

Summary
As soon as Alex sits down – this might be the most comfortable chair he’s ever sat in in his life – Henry asks, “so, Alex, what made you want to become a lawyer?”
“Real answer, or answer I gave NYU during interviews?”
“Real answer,” Henry says, the corner of his mouth quirking up.
Alex grins. “I watched Legally Blonde for the first time when I was six. I’ve wanted to be a lawyer ever since.”
“I regret to inform you that I mostly deal in civil cases, so the opportunity to prove someone guilty of murder based on hair care expertise is going to be slim to none,” Henry says, smile on his face. “If that’s more your wheelhouse, I might have to turn you over to Pez.”
“Hair care, or criminal law?”
“Both.”
[or: Alex is a new associate at Luna, Okonjo, and Fox, and the way Henry looks in a suit is downright criminal]

Summary
As far as big romantic gestures go, Alex isn’t sure it’s even possible to top standing on a global stage and practically declaring your love for someone on the tail end of a history-defining speech that will probably be printed in textbooks for years to come.
Never let it be said that Alex is a quitter though. He’s fully prepared to give it his best fucking shot.
Or: the epilogue - because the best part of the happy ending is getting to live in it.

Summary
Alex Claremont-Diaz is a star on the rise.
A wildcard up-and-coming new actor who finds himself thrust into the Hollywood limelight when he’s nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Actor for his small-budget indie movie. It’s his more than he could have imagined in his wildest dreams. That is, until he discovers that also in his category is his mortal enemy: Henry Fox – generically attractive, completely boring and part of an acting dynasty that stretches back generations. In short, everything Alex hates about Hollywood.
So when a comment Alex makes about Henry in an interview goes viral, and the two find themselves thrust together through awards season, Alex can’t help but think his dream has become his worst nightmare.
Except, maybe – just maybe – Henry isn’t quite what he seems.
(This fic is completely written. Updates Tuesday, Thursday & Sunday!)

Summary
It’s been nearly two years since the leak of the so-called Waterloo Letters and Alex and Henry are doing their best to live their lives on their own terms. But between the pressures of American politics, their increasing frustration with the Palace along with the harassment of the British tabloids and strangers who hate them for no reason, it feels like it’s impossible for them to move forward.
When someone opens fire at a political event ahead of the midterm elections, their life is once again thrown into chaos and they start to question if they’ll ever find the peace they so desperately want or if they’ll cave under the weight of it all.

Summary
So he reaches and searches for the prior conversation where he was told about his memory loss and the man beside him. He checks the nooks and crannies of his mind, desperately hoping that it hasn’t failed him. That the effort he’s put into maintaining his intelligence over the years has been worth it because this time, he can be better.
But, he finds nothing.
It’s empty. Blank. Scattered and useless.
Alex looks down at his lap, at his legs hidden by starchy white bed sheets. “I don’t understand,” he whispers, tearfully. “I don’t remember. Why can’t I remember?”
--
or, Alex loses the the last five and a half years of his memory along with any recollection of his relationship with Henry

Summary
The anger he feels boiling in his stomach isn’t Henry’s fault. Really, it’s not. In fact, Alex is probably going to feel terribly later about the way he goes about this.
And it’s a damn shame, too, because Henry’s a culmination of every one of Alex’s types—dirty blonde and strong jawed with eyes he could drown in, broad shoulders and dainty collarbones covered in a shirt that might be a size or two deliberately too tight.
Alex can’t even blame him for it. It’s working wonders. Even his palm looks soft and inviting, tilted up and waiting to be met with his own. When he blinks, his lower lip juts out the tiniest bit.
Alex spins toward Nora, leaves Henry’s hand in the air beside him.
“Is this the only reason you invited me out tonight?”

Summary
Alex can feel the eyes of the room on him as Shaan approaches his side. Then, Shaan quietly murmurs in his ear. They’re words he’s thought about before, distantly wondering about what might happen when they were finally uttered. How their lives might change. There’s nothing that can prepare him for the reality of it though, nothing that can prepare him for how his breath hitches when Shaan speaks.
‘London Bridge is down, Sir.’
