Summary
“Seems like my liege was caught in a situation where he’d rather the ground swallow him whole.” Pez nods towards a spot to the side, and Alex follows his gaze. He spots Henry easily – a tall lighthouse of tousled blond hair – talking to a girl who is clearly into him. His expression looks perfectly polite, but he’s subtly leaning away, and he looks tense.
So, Alex makes an impulsive decision.
Whatever happens, this is going to be fun.
***
Or: Alex is so very definitely straight, so pretending to be Henry’s boyfriend to get him out of an awkward situation should just be a fun little pastime - except that he doesn't really want to stop, and he has no idea why. But maybe it's okay to not think too hard and let himself go with the flow, for once.

Summary
He looked around at the emptiness of the tree house. His wonder about what he would find inside was now replaced by curiosity about what, exactly, his neighbors and their friends did here. His question was partially answered when he caught sight of the black and white keyboard piano leaning against the back corner.
He reached out to touch it.
“Holy crap—”
Wille whirled around, eyes widening.
It was the curly haired boy, standing in the tree house.
He stumbled, his foot slipping on the open edge behind him. Wille shot out his hand and caught the other boy’s flailing wrist, tugging him forward, hard, before he could fall.
They stood, suspended there, hearts pounding, brown eyes meeting brown eyes for the first time.
**
“And then you said, ‘uh, I’m Wille,'” Simon says. “Like I didn’t almost fall to my death!”
“I was just trying to be polite!” Wille says. Simon throws his head back and laughs, and Wille laughs, too.
