Dog Sitting David by PinkUniverse for Duckling3

Summary
“David is rather good at pretending he hasn’t eaten in days, so please don’t fall for his schemes. He has a well-balanced diet, but don’t hesitate to give him a snack every now and then, because it will help you if you want him to listen to you.”
“I see David and I have that in common,” Alex grins. “Put some food in front of me and I’ll do basically anything.”
Henry raises an inquisitive eyebrow and Alex scolds himself for voluntarily offering up another piece of useful information.
“I’ll keep that in mind,” Henry replies with a roguish twinkle in his eye.
And, fuck, why does that make Alex’s heart accelerate?
---
When Henry needs a last-minute dog sitter, Alex isn't looking forward to looking after June's boring friend's Beagle. He'll do anything for his sister, however, so he shows up at Henry's brownstone a couple of hours later anyway. It doesn't take long for Alex to find out he might have been wrong about Henry. He might actually be worth getting to know better.
Who knew?!

Underneath the Mistletoe by PinkUniverse

Summary
“What’s wrong?” Alex asks.
“It’s mistletoe!” Pez squeals excitedly, clapping his hands together. “You know what that means!”
“Oh, come on,” Alex scoffs, finally looking up.
They’re exactly underneath the archway and right above their heads, as if someone had planned it- which they obviously did- hangs a small bundle of mistletoe. Alex is sure it wasn’t there earlier. They would have heard about it, wouldn’t they? Mistletoe always causes a commotion, and with a room full of people, it wouldn’t have gone unnoticed.
“It’s gonna be bad luck if you don’t kiss,” Nora says, sounding very convinced for someone who’s about to receive a firm tap on the back of her head soon.
A small bundle of mistletoe changes everything Alex thought he knew about himself.

Summary
He glances over and sees David snuggling in his bed, under the window in the living room, dead to the world. The only sign of life is his legs going ten to the dozen. Twitching and kicking out at some imaginary foe, or more likely, in Henry’s opinion, chasing the squirrels in the park. It is David’s favourite pastime after all.
Or, the softer than soft story of a morning in the life of one man and his dog.

“I am afraid I don’t know the meaning of any of the words you just spoke.”

Henry moves to New York City to help Pez with the opening of his new bar in the East Village. The location—fortunately for business, but unfortunately for Henry’s sanity—is directly across the street from a fire station. The sound of sirens is bad, Alex the gorgeous firefighter is worse. But when Alex helps Henry avoid a near catastrophe the night of the bar’s opening, the two form a tentative friendship that starts to develop into something more.

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.

Summary
"Just, you know," Henry says. "If your mum weren't the president and you were just a normal bloke living a normal life, what things might be like? What you'd be doing instead?"
After being discovered on Instagram as a teenager, Alex Diaz is thriving as a social media influencer and model who just landed a high profile, high fashion contract with Calvin Klein. Alex can get any girl he wants, and he’s loving it. Meanwhile, British poet Henry Fox has just arrived in L.A. to kick off a North American tour promoting his new, steamy book of gay erotic poetry, and he’s attracting a lot of attention.
Bad blood is immediately sparked between them when Henry blows Alex off at their first meeting. Several tabloid rumors and an Instagram tantrum later, Alex and Henry are reluctantly thrust together to make nice, resulting in a grudging friendship and a magnetism between them that Alex can't explain. Why is Henry's poetry making Alex feel like this? And just what is it about Henry Fox that gets to him so much?- Language:

Summary
"Okay, kids, settle down, we're all friends here," Nora cuts in. "And we haven't discussed where the night is going yet. I'm of the personal opinion that we should offer our British guests the quintessential American coming-of-age experience." Alex's eyes widen in what can only be sheer delight.
"What, like beer pong?" June says, nose wrinkling.
"No," Alex interjects. "Truth or dare."
"You read my mind, Alexander." Nora turns to open the mini-fridge. "What would everyone like to drink?"
"Henry and I will take vodka if you've got it," Pez says. Henry narrows his eyes at Pez, trying to communicate his alarm, but Pez simply grins back, feral, licking his top teeth.

Summary
"Hello, Mr. Fox-Mountchristen's office. How may I help you?"
"Hello, can I speak to Mr. Fox-Mount-krishen, please?"
Alex blinked. After two weeks of hearing nothing but the voices of snooty men and frazzled secretaries calling in, the person on the other line now sounded decidedly neither snooty nor male nor in any way adult.
It was a little girl.
"Mr. Fox-Mountchristen's unfortunately in a meeting right now,” Alex began slowly, “but I could take a message?"
"Oh." The girl paused. "You're not Mr. Hunter."
Alex starts a new job as Henry's new assistant. Henry's daughter keeps calling the office and leaving him messages.

Summary
He opened the app and immediately there’s a block of potential new matches waiting for him to swipe through. He slightly moved his thumb left and right to see which swipe is correct before he…swiped away. He thumbed quickly, going by first picture alone until the screen went dark and the words It’s A Match! pop up with his icon and someone else’s.
You and Alex have liked each other!
Henry hits the send message button and paused. He doesn’t know what to say. Does he say Hello? Is that safe? Instead he hit Alex’s icon to pull up Alex’s profile.
The first photo was a mirror selfie and Henry softly laughed but upon looking at it longer, Alex is really, really cute. He’s got a white short-sleeved button up with navy blue shorts on and his hair a tousled mess. One hand was making a peace sign and the other was holding the phone with a bi flag popsocket. Henry felt his cheeks warm. He swiped to the next photo and saw the rest are him gently holding baby ducks. The ducks are also very, very cute but Henry’s a little confused until he reads the bio.

“Very kind of you Hunter, but I’m really quite booked up and—"“Sorry I’m late, sweetheart,” comes a drawl Henry vaguely recognises.
