    Summary

    “I said I’m fine.”

    “You don’t sound fine.”

    “Why does it matter how I sound?” Ilya spins back around, frustration spilling over. “Why is there always something? Tone, face, body language. Maybe I’m just fucking tired, Shane. Maybe I don’t have the energy to be ‘okay’ correctly.”

    Shane swallows. “I’m not asking you to be okay.”

    “It feels like it,” Ilya scoffs. “It feels like if I don’t say the right words, if I don’t say them the right way, you’ll keep pushing until you get something out of me.”

    Ilya’s mother’s birthday sends Ilya down a rough episode, in which Shane tries understanding him.

    Summary

    *May change the rating later if things end up getting spicy, but right now, I'm not sure*

    Note: This is almost finished, so it shouldn't take long to post chapters. I'm thinking daily.

    When Alex overhears a private conversation between Henry and Pez, he is left spiraling about what it could mean. Has Henry finally had enough of Alex? Can Alex save the relationship by being "less"?

    Alex tries to make himself smaller, and also avoids Henry as much as he can, but when Henry catches him in a lie, he has to face his fears- Henry and what he really feels for him.

    Summary

    Alex Claremont-Diaz is smart, ambitious, and stuck working under the coldest senior partner at the firm—Henry Fox, who never smiles and only ever calls him Alexander. But beneath the perfectly tailored suits and clipped emails, Henry is barely holding back feelings he’s tried to bury for years.

    Workplace banter turns into after-hours tension, and one drunken confession might unravel everything.

    Or: Alex thinks his boss hates him. His boss is desperately in love with him.
