May I offer you some fluff and humor? Today the creators of the @anywhere-with-you-event were revealed, so I’m here to present to you my contribution!

Thank you to the mods for making this possible and to @jackzimmermemes for giving me a prompt that inspired a whole bibliography.

How Do You Say I Love You

Alex is a gold star kindergarten teacher. He doesn't technically have a star, he'd never take anything from the sticker sheet in his top drawer for himself. But he loves this job. And if you love what you do you never work a day in your life, that was the promise, right?

Well, Alex works, harder than any other teacher he knows.

The first time he introduces himself to a kindergarten class as their teacher and is met with wide eyes and grins missing a tooth or two, he knows he is exactly where he is supposed to be. This is what he’s worked for. This is what matters.

When he enters the teachers’ lounge that same afternoon and meets the school’s librarian for the first time, he has half a mind to quit and move into his mom’s spare bedroom in D.C.

Henry Fox spares him one agonizingly quick look from across the room and physically takes a step back before he storms out altogether on his disgustingly long legs.

It’s just Alex’s added luck that the door hasn’t fully closed next to him, so he clearly hears Henry muttering, “That cannot be the new kindergarten teacher. That’s ridiculous.”

Henry makes a slow lap around the dining room, careful of the cracked tiles beneath his feet and the insulation hanging from the ceiling.

He runs his finger through the thick layer of dust on the counter, then steps over a broken stool, stopping short at the booth in the corner with deep rips in the cushions.

“How much would this place go for if I were to sell it?”

The lawyer clears his throat and skirts around a pile of menus on the floor, David’s Diner in faded bold font on the front. “It all depends, really, but I’ve seen nearby businesses go for up to five hundred thousand.”

Henry whips around. “Five hundred—.”

“Thousand,” the lawyer nods, “yes.”

Henry scoffs and holds his arms out, gesturing to the graffiti on the walls and the broken glass on the floor. He can’t even begin to imagine what the kitchen and restrooms look like. “For this place?”

for @tailsbeth-writes as a part of @anywhere-with-you-event !!

summary:

“Listen, I was hoping maybe I could get your business card. Do you think your kids would be interested in sitting in on a rehearsal or maybe a private dance class?”

“Oh,” Henry says. “That’s incredibly kind of you. They would love that. We should have grants for things like this‒”

“Your money's no good here. I mean, pay your bus drivers but I won’t accept a cent from you,” Alex smiles.

“It’s more paying your company,” Henry teases. “Will your bosses be okay with that?”

“I can be very persuasive,” Alex whispers and it leaves goosebumps over Henry’s skin.

Trying to regain his footing, Henry says, “Uh, my email and office number are on there. You can contact either one and we can set something up.”

“And what if I wanted to set up something after office hours?” Alex asks with a glint in his eyes.

or: ballet dancer! alex has taken an interest in henry after a shelter field trip to Ballet Austin and henry wants to believe it's not too good to be true.
