Summary
Henry still remembers when the news of Alex’s presentation broke.
It’d been in 2016, not long after Henry had seen him in Rio. It didn’t really matter what any of the formal statements said; the tabloids had already decided it for him. The entire family—Oscar, Ellen, and June—were alphas, including most of the other immediate members. And Alex certainly looked the part, even when he was younger.
And then, everyone had been shocked when he’d turned out to be the opposite. It hadn't changed anything about the way Henry felt: the fact that Alex was still the most beautiful, most alive person he’s ever seen, and the fact that he’ll remain perpetually oblivious and just out of Henry’s reach.
(Unless, of course, he doesn't.)
