Summary
There aren’t many instances in which Henry would claim he exhibits a colorful vocabulary. In fact, he could likely list them on one hand: when wretched people say the most bigoted things, when the local grocer has run out of their Jaffa Cake stock in the minuscule international aisle, when he gets bored and resorts to writing homoerotic poetry in his moleskin journal with a fountain pen like some lovelorn literary scholar from the eighteenth century.
And now, when he’s assigned to a gig he doesn’t want to be at. As in, he would rather publish said poetry to the unrelenting, merciless masses of the internet than be at this gig.
“You must be bloody fucking kidding me.”

Or, When Rolling Stone names Alex Claremont-Diaz as the number one rising star to look out for, Henry is tasked with the sole responsibility of photographing him for their cover shot. Which, truly, wouldn’t be an issue—it’s an incredible opportunity—except Henry doesn’t trust that miscreant to be within ten feet of him ever since The Incident™

Summary
In a world where every gesture is under constant scrutiny and every step watched by thousands of eyes, Charles and Max lead their quiet, private revolution. For six months, they’ve shared a space in sunlit Monte Carlo, learning to weave everyday life with the glow of social media — where truth and illusion entwine in an elusive dance.
This is a story of two men who choose subtle signs instead of grand declarations: coffee mugs on a morning counter, stolen smiles, quiet touches. A love slowly breaking through walls of silence, stirring curiosity and speculation, yet living in glances, jokes, and shared streams — places where the lines between public and private blur ever more.
A tale of affection nurtured every morning, in the light of screens and the hum of the city — delicate, shy, yet filled with passion and warmth. Of two souls who, despite the world’s expectations, build a space of authenticity where they can truly be themselves.
Soft launch — more than a relationship. An invitation into a world of small gestures, hidden emotions, and secrets just beginning to bloom.
"You feel like home. And you’re the only place I want to be."

Summary
“You don’t care if it’s-if this is going to make it extremely obvious that we’re… you know, more than best friends?"
Dream doesn’t hesitate to lean forward and press his lips to George’s for just a quick second, more of a peck than a real kiss, but George’s cheeks heat up nonetheless.
“I don’t care about any of this being a secret,” Dream gestures vaguely to their current positioning as if to prove his point. “I want privacy, sure, so I still don’t think we should outright tell everyone. But I want to be myself, I want to keep acting the way we always have. If they happen to guess the truth, then… oh well.”
or; Dream decides it's a good idea to retake the 'am I in love with my best friend' quiz a few weeks after George gets to Florida, despite the fact that they're already dating.

Bookmarker's Notes
"George’s heart stutters as if it’s the first time, as if he shouldn’t be used to this by now. He wonders if it’s possible this will ever stop feeling like a miracle, if he could ever take any of this for granted after the entire lifetime he spent wondering, waiting."
