To his credit, Alex stays mostly quiet as Henry putters around the room, cleaning dishes, sweeping the floor, and watching the windows. Henry can feel Alex’s eyes on him as he moves but Henry refuses to look back. He won’t let Alex be a distraction even though he seems to be the only thing Henry can think of.

The only sound Alex makes is one of interest when Henry rolls up his sleeves and pulls the bread flour out of the cabinet.

“Do you like peaches,” Henry asks and Alex sits up further.

“Yes, but I haven't had one in forever.”

“They’re not fresh,” Henry warns as he grabs the jar of peaches and a fork. “I canned them last summer so I could use them through the winter. Maybe you won’t be as impressed.”

He fishes out the smallest slice he can find, not wanting a larger one to go to waste if Alex decides he hates it.

Instead of reaching for the fork, Alex drops his mouth open and Henry rolls before complying. Alex’s lips close around the tines and he shuts his eyes before Henry pulls it free.

Alex hums as he chews then smiles. “Incredible,” he says, licking his lips with bright eyes. “Can I have another?”

“I’m making something,” Henry says as he turns back to the kitchen.

There’s a rustle, like Alex is trying to get up and then mutters a word in a language that Henry doesn’t understand. When he dares to look over his shoulder, Alex is lying down with a grimace on his face. Henry bites back an “I told you so.”

“Making what,” Alex grits out.

“It’s a surprise.”

“Will I like it?”

Henry grabs the tin of sugar. “If you like peaches then I think you’ll like this.”

WIP Wednesday

Queer All Year Edition! Queer Pride flag featured above!

I hope you had a fabulous pride month!

This is your reminder that you’re loved all year long!

I’m currently working on three different writing collab projects!

Here’s an excerpt from Runaway Groom Henry and Yacht Captain Alex!

Henry’s brain blue screens and he finds himself in front of the man.

“I will pay you a fortune to take me anywhere in the world except here,” Henry says to the gorgeous man. His white uniform shirt hugs his biceps snug and the epaulets make his shoulders broad. Broad enough to be distracting.

“Are you asking me to runaway with you, sweetheart?” His American accent makes Henry want to squeak. He stifles and regains his composure.

“Look, you menace, are you going to help me or not? I’m short on time until they find me.”

“Of course I will, gorgeous. Hop aboard,” His smile is oozing charm and confidence. Henry should be wary but he finds himself giddy with it.

Open tag, No Pressure tag!

Happy Wednesday friends! Hope everyone is having a lovely week so far. ❤️ Coming to you this week with a new lil canon divergent heated rivalry au. It's a married in Vegas au, and I think it's gonna be pretty fun.

Shane panics, and his fingers dig into Rozanov’s shoulder as he pushes up, sheets pooling around his waist as he rubs sleep from his eyes. What the fuck happened last night? Why had he stayed in Rozanov’s room? None of this made any sense. Especially…

Fuck.

What the fuck?

Fuck.

There’s a gold band on his ring finger. A cheap gold band, but a band nonetheless. He looks down and seeks out Rozanov’s hands, and –

“Fuck.”

Shane swears out loud, and puts his head in his hands when he sees matching gold band on Rozanov's finger. Rozanov’s brow is furrowed, and his lips press together as he rolls his head into the pillow and groans. His curls are tousled, a mussed halo on his pillow, and His broad back and muscled shoulders are fully on display in the morning sun. If they had all the time in the world to meander, Shane might kiss across the ridges of his spine and allow himself to savor this. They’ve never woken up together – Shane has never seen Ilya dressed in gleaming morning sunlight, and his hungover brain can’t help but think it suits him well.

Gonna go ahead and tag @shanehollandertwentyfour , @pauppysucr , @onthewaytosomewhere , @tailsbeth-writes , @theprinceandagcd , @run-for-chamo-miles , @suseagull5914 , @porcelainmortal , @caterpills and an open tag for anyone who wants to join!!

Little bit from "White House of Lies"

***

“You broke our promise,” Oscar states, the second he enters the Oval Office, and the door is closed.  The two of them meet alone for one hour every day to help fake their marriage to those not in the know. 

It’s the only time they spend alone these days.

“Which promise this time?” Ellen asks, not looking up from her computer.

“You don’t know?  You can’t possibly think of a single thing you’ve done today that would fall under a broken promise?”

Ellen looks up.  “This is about Alex, isn’t it?”

“Of course it’s about Alex!  You’re asking him to fake a friendship with a man he hates!”

 “It’s one weekend and that’s what he gets for destroying a cake at a major royal event and throwing our relationship with the United Kingdom in jeopardy!”

Oscar can’t help rolling his eyes.  “The United States’ relationship with the United Kingdon has nothing to do with a mistake and $70,000 cake.”

“He ruined a royal wedding because he couldn’t just avoid one person!”

“If you never made him a celebrity and went yourself, you never would’ve had to worry about that!”

Thanks @run-for-chamo-miles and @porcelainmortal for the tags on Sunday!

More LOTR AU...

It did leave room, though, for the crush Nora had always had to blossom. With nothing to do but talk to June for hours on end, Nora was reminded of how kind and intelligent she was. Not that she hadn't known either of these things before, of course, but when the men's teasing about their height reached its peak and Nora was tempted to lash out, all June did was say a few simple words and they fell silent. Her kindness towards them, considering the reality of their situation, was beyond anything Nora could manage.

Lots of no pressure tags for @jackzimmermemes , @myheartalivewrites , @tailsbeth-writes , @zwiazdziarka , @cha-melodius , @emmalostinwonderland ,

happy wednesday my luvs - thanks so much for the tags today @suseagull5914 @jmagnabo92 & @priincebutt

coming at ya with some words from chapter 8 of Something About Dragons (that was posted today!) THEIR FIRST KISS!! (or at least some of it) - AND LET ME TELL YA GETTING THERE AND IT TAKING SO DAMN LONG WAS KILLER

They pull off the tunics they donned before leaving and curl up in bed, leaning against the wall, while David sleeps by the hearth. Alex pulls Henry in, and they face each other, wrapped up in each other’s arms. Their breath mingles between them, and Alex leans forward, Henry fills the gap, and their lips touch. It’s everything either of them ever hoped it would be—gentle and soft and just so damn good. It is lips pressing and moving together in perfect synchronicity. Alex sighs into the kiss, and Henry echoes it. They pull each other closer, and their hands gently explore over shirts, grazing ticklish spots they’re discovering for the first time. They kiss until their lips are numb, nothing more than lips pressing and moving and exploring what they’ve been waiting for. Night deepens gently around them, the hush of the small village wrapping the inn like a thick, warm blanket. The fire in the hearth slows, flickering just enough for them to see. David still lies curled on the rug in front of the fire, quietly sleeping. The only sound in their small room is the quiet shifting of bedding as Henry and Alex settle into it. The bed is small for the two of them, but tonight it feels perfect, because it's theirs, together. Alex still leans against the wall, and Henry curls into his natural darastrix warmth, their bodies drawn together by an invisible force. Alex wraps his arms around Henry with the reverence of someone who knows what he almost lost. Henry sighs into Alex’s chest. His breath is warm through the linen of Alex’s shirt. Henry tilts his head up; their eyes meet faintly by the firelight.
