    Summary

    Alex has had an absolutely shitty day at work. Every email, phone call and interaction with difficult coworkers has just added to the stress. And then, Hunter screwed up on an important case and Alex had to fix the entire mess.

    So when he flops down on his seat in the train, all he wants to do is sit in silence and decompress. Maybe stare out the window disassociating, while he thinks about the leftovers he has waiting for him in his fridge. His stomach rumbles with hunger because he also doesn’t remember eating anything after lunch, except a stale cookie and cold coffee.

    But then, he sees the dog.

    It's a beagle and it's standing in the aisle beside the seat just in front of Alex, all floppy ears and puppy dog eyes, and he might just fall in love at first sight.

    OR A meet cute, a missed connection and a matchmaking dog.

    Summary

    Carlos disappears through the opening and into the dining room. Owen hears the sounds of the table being set as he finishes chopping half a tomato. He grabs the cucumber when he’s done, and opens two drawers in search of a vegetable peeler. He finds one in the second drawer, but also finds something else.
     
    Owen frowns. He looks closer, sure at first that he’s seeing things. But it’s unmistakable, upon further examination. It’s a small clear tube of sexual lubricant.

    Summary

    “Are you sure you’re going to be okay here?”

    Henry lowers his mug and watches as Alex overfills his thermos. He’s had two cups already, and the odds of him having more at the office are high.

    “Here?” Henry asks as he tosses Alex a dishcloth to mop up the coffee. “In our home?”

    “In this house…all the way out here…alone.”

    “I’m not a child, Alex,” Henry says, affronted. “I don’t require a babysitter.”

    “I know that,” Alex says, “I know that. It’s just…you grew up in a palace. You had people everywhere. Now you’re just…alone out here.”

    “I can assure you that when I was growing up, I was alone, plenty.”

    Alex groans. “Oh god, please don’t say that. That makes me so sad.”

     

    Or.

    5 times Henry works to make their house a home +1 time Alex realizes it's been home all along.

    Summary

    “TK, your lizard got out. Again.”

    Lou II might just be the Houdini of lizards, an escape artist par excellence – but he’s also TK’s emotional support lizard, so how could Carlos not start to like the little monster? It certainly has nothing to do with TK’s ways of bribery or attempts at conditioning him, and more with the fact that Lou II is just… growing on him. Even if that means loads and loads of extra laundry.

    Summary

    Carlos made his way to the victim’s bedroom, located down a narrow corridor, across from an equally cramped bathroom. The very first thing he saw after stepping through the doorway was T.K. Strand, slumped in a chair in the corner of the room, drenched in blood.

    Carlos’s knees gave out so abruptly that he had to grab for the frame to catch himself before he hit the ground. “No,” he heard himself say, in a voice that didn’t sound anything like him.

    (Fifteen months after they broke up, Carlos and T.K. are thrown together again at the scene of a murder.)
