Summary
“I bet I could get more dates than you.” The words tumbled out of Alex’s mouth before he could really think them through with any actual sort of logic.
It shouldn’t have been so satisfying, the way that made Henry blink like an owl, but it was. “I beg your pardon?”
“We’ll make it a contest,” Alex pressed on, the idea forming in his head simultaneously as the words left his lips, “Whoever has the most hookups by the end of June wins.”
At first, Henry didn’t say anything. But the party kept going on around them, music thumping and people chattering and drinks spilling, and as time inched on, Henry’s expression changed to one of almost… curiosity.
“Wins what?”

Summary
Henry Fox has spent most of his career being invisible. As a freelance choreographer in London, he’s content to stay behind the scenes and create art for other people to perform — until a job offer pulls him to the other side of the Atlantic to salvage a rising pop star’s tour.
Alex Claremont-Diaz went from covering Queen songs in dive bars to selling out entire venues in the span of one viral moment, and he’s not about to let anyone forget it. He’s charismatic, relentless, and seems determined to make Henry’s job on the tour as difficult as possible. Unfortunately Alex is also a brilliant performer, and Henry can’t help but be drawn into his orbit.
After a lost bet, Henry finds himself not only choreographing Alex’s upcoming music video, but also starring in it. When a reckless off-script kiss derails any remaining sense of professionalism between the two of them, Henry begins to suspect he’s choreographed himself into something he can’t easily dance his way out of.

Summary
When Hollywood’s favorite chaos agent Alex Claremont-Diaz is cast opposite the famously composed Henry Fox-Mountchristen-Windsor in the highly-anticipated adaptation of the beloved novel Scarlet, Ivory & Crown, fans brace for fireworks.
Rumors swirl about on-set tension, off-screen chemistry, and a press tour that feels more like a pressure cooker. But somewhere between the flashbulbs and the fan theories, something real begins to spark.

Summary
Henry Fox is only attending this American football game as a PR stunt. That's all it is. He's definitely not fatally attracted to the brash quarterback Alex Claremont-Diaz who had the audacity to publicly call him out for not taking his number at a concert... that would be absolutely idiotic of him.
This fic is finally fucking completed.

pants optional by ninzied for jafffacakes

Summary
Henry had been very pleased to discover that Alex and Nora were also a shoeless household, but he’d stared at the SHOES OFF, PANTS OPTIONAL mat at their door for longer than strictly advised because, well. Pants means something different where he’s from, all right, and Alex had been standing right there and the corresponding visual was not—well it wasn’t—Henry was not equipped to deal with it at the moment. Or ever, really, for that matter.
.
Or, Henry likes his routines, and his neighbor Alex likes to wreck them just the right amount.

Summary
“I know what you’re doing Alex,” Henry points out with a smile. “But I’m sorry, I’m not looking for a one-night-stand nor a boyfriend.
“Like, ever or…?” Alex pouts when Henry glares at him. “Fine,” he fake sighs, a teasing smile playing on his lips. “How about friends?”
Henry chuckles while shaking his head. The elevator dings, signaling that they’ve reached the ground floor. Alex scoffs when Henry steps out first, his legs doing their best to catch up to him.
“What’s it gonna be, Fox?” he shouts while grinning, stopping in his tracks when he realizes it’s too late to catch Henry.
He only hears Henry chuckle and sees him waving a hand in the air while walking out of the office building. “I’ll see you around, Alex.”
“See you, friend!” Alex smiles smugly while watching Henry’s figure walk away.
— Or, Alex meets Henry at a charity gala he attends, courtesy of the Okonjo Foundation. They hit it off right away, natural chemistry and all. Too bad Henry isn’t looking for boyfriends nor one-night-stands at the moment. (Alex is persistent, though.)
Title from Enchanted by Taylor Swift (I just added the parenthesized part!)

Summary
Alex’s first reaction to hearing the plan for Christmas was an immediate “hell no.”
His second was a long drawn out sigh and sarcastically muttering under his breath, “Of course, his Majesty’s family has a fucking cabin in the mountains.”
But both Nora and June heard him and they both had something to say about Alex’s bah humbug attitude. June simply glared at him and Alex could feel her disappointment. She never understood Alex’s intense dislike for Henry. Nora rolled her eyes and started in again about his supposed hate boner for Henry and how he was actually in love with the pompous asshole.
OR another caketastrophe, a few misunderstandings and OPERATION ONE BED.

Summary
Alex was staring, he knew he was. How could he not— was he in a dream? There was no other explanation for the fact that Henry was standing here in front of him.
Awake.
Awake and looking at him with that amusingly fond expression on his face; concern radiating from the furrow of his brow. “Are you quite alright? You look like you’ve just seen a ghost.”
Or; lovers to strangers to friends to lovers with a healthy dose of amnesia and second chances.

Summary
So, Henry’s life in Sandford is fine. Not demonstrably better or worse than his life in London, just different. And just boring enough that he catches himself hoping something interesting might happen.
As a police officer, he should have known better.
(When he's transferred to a new position in the country, Henry expects to be bored and miserable. He doesn't expect to find a gorgeous, vibrant American seemingly determined to drive him up the wall, nor does he expect to end up tracking a murderer—especially when all the clues seemingly point to the man he's helplessly falling in love with.)

“Tell me something true,” Alex all but commanded. “Something they wouldn’t think to put on a fact sheet.”
“Such as?”
“I don’t know, anything,” Alex told him earnestly. “Everything I knew about you before all this came from articles and news segments. That’s not the real Henry- I don’t give a shit about whoever that guy is. I want to know more about you.”
“Oh,” Henry blinked at him, vaguely bewildered. “You realize that implies you give a shit about me now, right?”
“Yeah, yeah, don’t let it go to your head,” Alex rolled his eyes but Henry could see him fighting a smile.

Summary
“I can see the TikToks now: The role that killed Alex Claremont-Diaz’s career," Nora proclaims dramatically.
Alex flops back on his bed. “Oh, God. Maybe this’ll be the push I need to finally get over that TikTok addiction.”
“What are these new generations coming to? Absolutely no attention span, obsessed with little thirty second clips. Doom scrolling.”
“You’re more active on TikTok than I am.”
Ex-Disney star Alex Claremont-Diaz and critically acclaimed actor Henry Fox costar in a gay dystopian film. They might fall in love. They might struggle with love in the public eye. They might figure it out.

Summary
Henry’s brain keeps tripping over the fact that he’s just so bloody handsome. From his arms, he looks like he swims, and from his legs, he looks like he runs. Henry can tell that his eyelashes are long and dark from across the courtyard. Christ.
It’s like he was designed to be impossible to look away from. And Henry knows, even without knowing anything about him, that there isn’t a soul at Oxford who compares to him.
He’s probably going to make Henry’s life very difficult.
In which Henry meets Alex in their first year at Oxford. It's a Saltburn AU.

Summary
Henry is a world-class skier, a terrible liar, and absolutely incapable of asking for help. Sure, he insists he's fine. Completely, absolutely fine. Never mind that he's somehow managed to go even paler than usual (a feat Alex didn't think possible), how each movement is too measured and careful. Alex should walk away. After all, Henry has never needed help from anyone—least of all him. But when it comes to Henry, Alex has never been able to look the other way.
