    Summary

    "Lord Henry has sent a letter asking you to be his betrothed!"

    Alex blinks, then lets out a snort—purposefully ungentlemanlike to draw exasperation from both his mother and sister. "How unfortunate for him. Did he gamble away his dignity?"

    "Alexander!"

    Alex spends the week leading up to his marriage ceremony avoiding his betrothed, for his mind cannot comprehend any reason why Lord Henry, the man who scorned him at his debut, wants to marry him now that his reputation is ruined.

    Summary

    He doesn’t go more than ten feet before the glint becomes more solid, and finally resolves into, yes, a mailbox. Thank fuck. There are letters on the side that he can’t quite make out until he gets closer.

    A name: FOX.

    “Are you fucking kidding me?” Alex shouts into the white void. The snow muffles most of the sound. Of all the fucking people.

    (After an ill-advised attempt to get off the mountain before a snow storm hits, Alex finds himself stuck for god knows how long sharing the too-large house of his least favorite neighbor. Good thing there are lots of bedrooms, so at least he can stay far away from Henry Fox. Right?)

    Summary

    And, really, it doesn’t matter whether or not Alex explains it to Liam and the rest of his friends. They’ve never really discussed it between themselves through the years. Slowly, Alex had gone from asking Would you please peel this for me? to Please? to silently extending the citrus without any comment at all, just a soft smile. It’s one of the things that make them Alex-and-Henry; the silent conversations and the contentment in each other’s company.

    Now, as Alex starts to flourish through his position on the lacrosse team, his slew of AP classes, and his role in student government, getting him to slow down at all is a feat. The only way that Henry can do it, guaranteed, is by one of those innocuous little fruits. There’s nothing Alex can’t do—surely, he could peel a fucking orange if he felt so inclined—but Henry delights in being able to do this for him.

    Summary

    The first time Henry sees it happen, he knows instantly that it is not the first time it has ever happened. They’re sitting in the living room of the brownstone, the two of them surrounded by their favorite people in the world, a night of board games long abandoned in favor of mocking the eighth season of Game of Thrones.

    “God, don’t you have an off switch?” June groans, laughing as she chucks a piece of popcorn in Alex’s direction while he rambles passionately about the international legal implications of the Red Wedding. Nora cackles. “Whatever you do to thank Henry for putting up with you, it’s not nearly enough. Jesus, I can’t believe he put a ring on your loud mouth.”

    Or: Alex is fine. Really, he’s fine — he just wants Henry to stay, even if Alex is too much. Henry just wants his husband back.
