Summary
“Thanks for joining me today.” Alex pulls a folder from his bag and scoots his chair in. Flipping through his papers, he says, “First, I’m going to be asking you some questions to make sure we’re on the same page. You’re, of course, within your rights to not answer anything that makes you uncomfortable, though cooperation would be appreciated and I hope you can trust I have your best interest at heart.” His eyes flick up. “Any questions for me before we start?”
Last night, Henry told Alex he is in love with him; this morning, Alex is serving him with interrogatories.

Summary
So excuse him if he passes by Henry one night, both in pajamas and on their way to their respective rooms, both about to end their day at the same time, and his pinky slightly grazes against Henry’s right hip, immediately making him stop, whip around and stutter out, “H-Hey.”
It startles Henry—it startles Alex as well, Jesus—as he stumbles with his steps and turns around, eyebrows raised in surprise at the sudden break in peaceful silence in their apartment.
“Hey?” he replies.
or
Law student Alex is incredibly touch-starved and his English Lit PhD roommate Henry is right there.

Summary
"I could go a few days without contact, you know."
Henry looks over at Alex, who's splayed across the couch, and places a finger on the page he's reading to keep his place. "I'm…sorry?"
"While you're gone, I mean. I could handle a few days of not talking to you."
Henry still looks a little baffled. "Is this something you want to do? I'm still unclear on the 'why' here."
And so is Alex, honestly.
or:
five times Alex fails at the whole "go a whole weekend with no contact" thing (and one time Henry does)

Summary
Alex didn’t plan to be a dad.
Scratch that. Alex hasn’t even thought about being a dad. Kids are something for future Alex to—maybe, possibly—someday consider, once he has his shit together.
Present-day Alex doesn’t know how to feel and what to think. His career has just started to grow wings.
But the thought of having a child and knowingly abandoning it—just like he was abandoned—Alex can’t even think about that.
Or: When Alex knocks up his one-night stand and ends up raising the child as a single parent, his roommate steps in to help.

Summary
The guy grins and walks up to Henry. He sticks his hand in Henry’s face for a fist bump and says, “Hey bro, it’s Vincent. We went on a date here the other week.”
“Err—right,” Henry says, looking awkward. “Can I help you with something, Vincent?”
“I’m here to shoot my shot again,” Vincent says confidently. “I just feel like we really could’ve connected if—”
Which is when Alex slides his chair over, slings an arm around the back of Henry’s seat and says, “Sorry, bro, but he’s already taken.”
-
In which the hot guy at the coffee shop keeps bringing all his first dates there when Alex is just trying to study. His name, not that Alex is eavesdropping (much), is Henry. Henry likes dogs and his tea with a splash of Jane Eyre and honestly Alex would make a way better first date for him than all those other guys combined. When one of Henry’s old dates shows up uninvited, Alex is only too happy to prove his point.

Summary
Nothing but the threat of destruction of the library, as well as his livelihood — which he truly saw as secondary, because he knew he would be fine, but how many out there might not be? — could have brought him to his neighbor’s doorstep. Even once he was there, he struggled to make himself knock.
Because his neighbor was Alexander Claremont-Diaz, a loud, cocky, irritating (which included irritatingly handsome) presence in Henry’s life.

Summary
Henry bites his lower lip and glances past Alex towards the bar area. “I, er… Christ, I suppose a rescue wouldn’t hurt. I definitely can’t keep conversing with him if he ever comes back.”
“If you mean getting talked at by Boastful McEgo for another hour as he gets more and more drunk… yeah, no.” Alex stands up and offers a hand to Henry.
“Wait, the bill-“
“-is his problem. Come on, I bet there’s a crepe stand or something open late. I’m absolutely making sure you don’t starve if nothing else.”
“Charming.” Henry cracks a smile and takes Alex’s proffered hand. “Lead the way.”
// Alex steps in when he witnesses a stranger on a hellish first date. Little did he know how well that would turn out for the both of them.

Summary
Alex has spent too much of his life talking, talking, talking, not to know the signs when someone doesn’t want to hear him anymore. He's used to it. Watches out for the signs carefully. Stops himself before it gets too much ... before he gets too much.
It throws him completely when Henry shows none of those signs.
or: the one where lover boy Henry makes sure Alex knows he's never too much

Summary
The utter irony.
To be at a climate conference and have a storm descend upon the proceedings was perhaps poetic. To have the storm be intense enough to flood half the hotel and cut off transportation to the mainland was concerning.
But to have it all culminate in Henry having to share a room with Alex Claremont-Diaz was as if Mother Nature herself was having a laugh.
A gentle AU wherein there was only one bed.

Summary
Henry's boyfriend, Billy, suggested they open their relationship, and even though their relationship wasn't perfect, he didn't expect that. However, he also didn't expect to meet the person he'd likely fall in love with: Alex Claremont-Diaz.
Alex came like a refreshing breeze and brought colour and laughter to his life. He also suggested to Henry that they could get revenge on Billy by making him believe that he is dating multiple people.

Alex is spiraling... just a little.
Henry listens, and somewhere between teasing and tenderness, they end up talking about every girl Alex has ever loved before. Turns out, Henry knows more of the list than Alex thinks. And maybe, just maybe, every one of them left something behind that led them here.Bookmarked by CharlieKay

A Prince, a Doctor and an Elevator by Levkeee

Summary
Alex and Henry meet in an elevator.
- The elevator jolts into motion. Doors open and a swarm of men in black suits floods in, babbling into earpieces like they’re defusing a bomb, not escorting a guy to a kids’ ward. Henry throws an apologetic smile like, “Sorry about these guys; they take their job way too seriously.” “Your Royal Highness,” announces one, planting himself between Alex and Henry like he’s the gatekeeper of Narnia. Alex’s jaw drops so low it almost hits the floor. “Highness? Wait… what? Are you the prince? Like the Prince of England?” Henry nods shyly, cheeks now a perfectly ripe tomato red.-Bookmarked by CharlieKay
