❛❛   he   deserves   to   be   spoiled,   you   know   that   just   as   well   as   i   do.   ❜❜         the   beagle   wasn't   just   henry's   loyal   little   dog   anymore,   he   had   become   'their'   dog.   (   and   henry   would   argue   that   alex   could   spoil   him   even   more   than   usual   )   a   sigh   leaves   him   and   he   shifts,   the   phone   switched   to   speaker   so   he   can   rest   on   his   side   with   the   phone   now   laying   on   the   pillow   beside   him.   if   henry   closed   his   eyes,   it   was   almost   as   though   alex   was   right   there   with   him.         ❛❛   i'm   a   world   class   insomniac,   remember?   ❜❜         his   heart   clenched.         ❛❛   and   i   sleep   better   with   you   beside   me.   ❜❜         of   course   alex   didn't   cure   his   insomnia   entirely,   but   henry   could   sleep   through   the   night   more   often   with   him   by   his   side.         ❛❛   i   miss   you,   love.   so   much.   ❜❜            

"I know. Just...figured it might make it easier, you know?" Being apart, and for reasons that could have been avoided, is always hard, but it seems to be HARDER for them. or for Alex at least. "As if you haven't spoiled him long before you even met me," Alex chuckles, and it chases away some of that sadness that had settles itself inside his chest. David's downstairs at the moment, having an early dinner, and Alex thinks about taking him out for another, longer walk later on. "You should get some sleep," He eventually says, rolling over on the bed and staring up at the ceiling. "The faster you fall asleep the quicker the night passes and then you can come home soon, yeah?"

a new concept: idiot academia

where u have book smarts but have absolutely no common sense

[hstoryhuh-a]

late night talking with @westwingsolo and we've decided that :

having their friends and family over is something both henry and alex love

there is usually light teasing and joking amongst the group

while henry expects the teasing and takes it well, there are times when it gets to be a bit much

henry will go quiet over time when the teasing becomes a little too much for him

most of the time, he'll lean more and more into alex when this happens, usually pressing against his side and using that as a source of grounding for him

alex will notice and that's when the night winds down and the others will go on their way

after they're alone again, there are cuddles on the couch ( david lays across their legs/feet ) and s.tar w.ars playing in the background

❛❛   have   you   met   pez?   ❜❜         henry   rolled   his   eyes   fondly   as   he   thought   of   his   best   friend.   pez   had   been   something   of   a   savior   for   henry's   sanity   over   the   years,   one   of   the   only   people   who   had   kept   him   afloat   when   things   felt   hopeless.   he   wished   he'd   been   able   to   be   more   like   his   friend,   but   his   position   in   the   royal   family   just   didn't   allow   it   to   happen   -   needless   to   say,   pez   was   more   than   happy   with   each   and   every   step   henry   took   that   distanced   himself   from   who   he   had   been   forced   to   be.

the   hand   still   on   alex's   shoulder   tightened,   fingers   digging   in   just   slightly   thanks   to   the   nip   against   his   skin.   for   a   moment,   henry   lost   his   train   of   thought.         ❛❛   hardly.   i'd   say   we   corrupted   each   other   in   the   best   possible   way.   ❜❜         the   fingers   in   alex's   hair   pulled   just   a   bit   until   he   could   lean   back   so   that   he   was   looking   into   his   eyes,   which   was   just   as   distracting.         ❛❛   you   liking   it   was   an   extra   perk   though.   ❜❜      

Alex let out a soft chuckle, letting his own hands settle on Henry's waist. "I bet Pez was losing his mind. How many times over the years has he tried to get you to just say fuck the crown and do something trivial but fun like this and you just couldn't let yourself be pushed over the edge?" He knew that Henry was very good at his role of Prince of England's hearts. He was poised and kind, the perfect gentleman. But over the last couple of years, Alex has had the pleasure of peeling back all of those layers, pulling Henry more and more out of that shell his family has forced him to hide in.

"Ah yes, I'm a handsome yet roguish American who corrupted the Pretty Prince..." Alex was giving Henry that little smirk as he leaned in to kiss his jaw, leaving a little nip. "Little do they know that it was you who actually corrupted me..."

time   apart   hadn't   been   much   of   an   issue   once   henry   had   moved   to   the   states,   once   he'd   bought   the   brownstone   and   alex   had   moved   in?   there   was   no   reason   to   miss   each   other   ...   until   henry   was   forced   back   to   england   for   something   or   another   (   and   reason   the   crown   could   come   up   with   really   ).         ❛❛   that   doesn't   make   it   easier,   charity   or   not.   ❜❜         yes,   it   was   a   good   reason   to   be   there   and   he   wanted   nothing   more   than   to   help   those   that   he   could   -   but   he   also   knew   that   his   appearance   aided   his   family   as   well.         ❛❛   only   a   few   more   days.   i've   asked   shaan   to   get   me   on   a   plane   as   soon   as   my   last   appearance   is   taken   care   of   -   can't   have   you   bribing   david   too   much,   wouldn't   be   fair.   ❜❜         he   expects   nothing   less.   david   will   be   spoiled   even   more   than   he   already   is,   which   henry   secretly   loves.         ❛❛   i'd   like   to   get   back   to   you   as   quickly   as   possible.   ❜❜     

"I wasn't POUTING." He exclaims, but then there's a pause and Alex laughs. "Okay, maybe I was. A little bit. I'm just not used to being without you." He hasn't been sleeping too well, going for runs and spending nights hunched over books, because Henry's not there to coax him back to bed. Alex knows it's temporary, but that doesn't make it any less hard to deal with. So come back home early. He wants to ask, but knows there's no way. It would only cause a big hassle with Philip and the Crown, and he doesn't want Henry to have to deal with that. "At least it's for charity, right?" He says instead, "And you'll be home soon. David might actually love me more than you by that point thought," Alex adds in a slightly teasing tone.

psa on posting speed;

i am a slow roleplayer. not only do i get distracted easily, i get overwhelmed easily. sometimes i can’t talk and do drafts at the same time so i am sorry if i ignore your message. i am deliberate and methodical with every word choice. i like to spend my time on my writing and getting to that emotional level within myself to evoke a proper response with each reply. i’m not good at whipping out thread after thread. i never have been. i’m sorry if that’s the way you roleplay and i don’t match up, but i like to think the quality of the writing makes up for my lack of speed. thank you so much!

❛❛   nora   did   say   you   had   been   'pouting'   all   day   -   ❜❜         he   had   the   texts   from   her   to   prove   it   and   it   had   only   made   henry   miss   him   that   much   more.   these   trips   had   the   worst   possible   timing.         ❛❛   i   miss   you   too,   darling.   of   course   i   do.   you   know   i   hate   these   trips   just   as   much   as   you   do.   ❜❜         there   was   a   reason   he   was   trying   to   push   for   his   abdication   and   speeding   up   the   process   but   there   was   so   much   that   'needed'   to   be   done   and   the   'timing'   needed   to   be   right.   heaven   forbid   he   overshadow   anything   that   his   family   planned.   a   sigh   escapes   him   and   he   allows   himself   to   drop   back   into   the   blankets,   staring   upwards   at   the   ceiling   with   the   phone   still   pressed   to   his   ear.         ❛❛   they   don't   need   me   here,   not   really.   philip   has   all   of   this   under   control,   bea   and   i   are   only   here   for   photo   ops   and   we   all   know   it.   ❜❜      

"Who said it's going to be QUICK?" Alex asks with a chuckle, though really, he hadn't called to get off. He wouldn't have complained if things had gone down that road, because he loves listening to Henry's voice and the way he gets when he's touching himself, but anyway. "I just miss you." He eventually adds, because it's the truth. He's not used to being away from Henry for long periods of time, doesn't WANT to be either, but sometimes they don't really have a choice.

[hstoryhuh-a]

❛❛   please   don't   jinx   yourself   when   i'm   quite   literally   across   the   ocean.   ❜❜         the   biggest   downfall   in   henry's   humble   opinion.   it   was   only   a   week   long   trip   but   he   was   halfway   through   and   already   wanting   to   hop   a   plane   to   escape   (   and   pez   had   even   offered   the   escape   himself   when   henry   had   complained   earlier   that   evening   ).   he   dropped   himself   to   the   edge   of   his   bed,   shoulders   falling   some   as   he   allowed   himself   to   relax.         ❛❛   i'd   rather   our   last   time   together   not   be   a   quick   way   to   get   off   over   the   phone,   thank   you   very   much.   ❜❜                 

"Man, that sounds like YOU are the one you needs to get off to my voice, blow off some steam, you know?" He knows how much Henry hates these mindless meetings and activities, at the very least Alex can do as he pleases, study or go for a run maybe, though he'd much rather be spending time with Henry. "All quiet on the western front." He jokes, rolling over on his stomach, phone still pressed to his ear. "But technically the day's not over yet, so who knows?"

[hstoryhuh-a]

❛❛   ah.   i   know   you   too   well.   ❜❜         his   eyes   roll   affectionately   before   his   expression   shifts,   brow   furrowing   some   as   he   recalls   the   rather   long   day   he'd   endured.         ❛❛   endless   meetings,   listening   to   philip   go   on   and   on   -   more   or   less   a   copy   and   paste   of   the   day   i   had   yesterday.   a   waste   of   time,   i   believe   you   would   say.   ❜❜         he   tries   not   to   think   about   having   to   do   it   all   over   again   tomorrow,   it   doesn't   work.   his   mood   would   sour   but   it's   near   impossible   to   have   that   happen   when   he   gets   to   speak   with   alex.         ❛❛   if   you're   not   calling   to   get   off,   perhaps   you'd   like   to   share   how   your   day   went?   i   didn't   get   any   google   alerts,   so   i   assume   all   is   rather   calm?   ❜❜                        

❛ if you called just to get off on my voice, i’m hanging up. ❜ - ( Henry ) @hstoryhuh

"First of all: RUDE." Alex pouts, even though he knows Henry can't see it, but he's pretty sure the other knows exactly what kind of face he's making. "I'm not calling for that. Well, not JUST that anyway," Falling back into the couch cushions, he blows out some air before putting Henry on speaker. "How was your day?"
