Summary
"I sort of came out as bisexual to both Nora and myself when we were watching that fucking snoozefest of a Royal Wedding years ago, and I told her with no hesitation that you were on my list.”
Suddenly, Henry looks very present in this previously one-sided conversation, eyes boring into him even if he sounds a little choked as he clarifies, “I was on—”
“My No Consequences Sex List,” Alex confirms brazenly. “Yeah."
Or: During an inadvisable spot of dating years back, Alex and Nora made a game out of making extensive lists of celebrities they could hook up with without it being cheating. One breakup and several years later, Alex meets someone on his list for the very first time at a charity gala and decides it's appropriate to tell him all about it.

Summary
“I’m just saying— we know you, Alejandro. I've ran the odds and with your personal history of decision-making and impulse control, there’s a less than four percent chance you of all people didn’t shoot your shot. Even if he’s in the closet. Even if he’s supposedly straight. Even if he’s a prince. You love a good story.”
Doesn’t he ever. Too bad he’s never going to get the chance to tell this one.
Or: Alex returns to real life after crossing the actual Prince of England off his totally
superfluousvalid No Consequences Sex List. It does not go quite like he expected.Series

Summary
“I’ve been thinking,” Henry says quietly, “almost constantly, about your list.”
Alex blinks because, well, his list hasn’t had this kind of traction in years. The Google trend must be spiking off the charts.
Henry bites at his own lower lip, turning the blush pink a tortured white, admits, “About the things you want to do—”
Oh.
That list.
Or: Alex discovers that talking to Henry is just as nice as having sex with him, or at least, pretty close. A perfectly timed revelation when he finds himself in desperate need of a heart-to-heart.

Summary
“When I was in college, my girlfriend and I used to play this game—”
Henry has been through extensive and rigorous etiquette training. Private tutors. The whole lot. He’s been thoroughly and expertly edified to remain impassive, attentive, unruffled, in even the most extreme of circumstances. But if this gorgeous man is about to tell him about some sort of perverted royal roleplay he engaged in with his college girlfriend, Henry’s going to revisit his decision about not jumping out of the bloody window.
Or: Henry attends a charity gala intent on changing the trajectory of his life. He certainly does, but not quite in the way he intended.

Summary
As far as big romantic gestures go, Alex isn’t sure it’s even possible to top standing on a global stage and practically declaring your love for someone on the tail end of a history-defining speech that will probably be printed in textbooks for years to come.
Never let it be said that Alex is a quitter though. He’s fully prepared to give it his best fucking shot.
Or: the epilogue - because the best part of the happy ending is getting to live in it.
