Summary
“Oh,” Deborah says, derisively, as she glances down at their spread. “Some of these cupcakes are quite…interesting.” Her mouth bends into an amused little curve, dripping condescension.
“I live to please,” Eddie bites out through clenched teeth.
Buck’s hand presses into his back for only a second before he’s plucking one of Eddie’s hideous cupcakes from the table. “It is interesting, thank you so much for noticing, Debs.”
Deborah’s eyebrows twitch at the nickname. Eddie considers the pros and cons of bending Buck over this table in the middle of his child’s school. Like, as friends.

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
The guy grins and walks up to Henry. He sticks his hand in Henry’s face for a fist bump and says, “Hey bro, it’s Vincent. We went on a date here the other week.”
“Err—right,” Henry says, looking awkward. “Can I help you with something, Vincent?”
“I’m here to shoot my shot again,” Vincent says confidently. “I just feel like we really could’ve connected if—”
Which is when Alex slides his chair over, slings an arm around the back of Henry’s seat and says, “Sorry, bro, but he’s already taken.”
-
In which the hot guy at the coffee shop keeps bringing all his first dates there when Alex is just trying to study. His name, not that Alex is eavesdropping (much), is Henry. Henry likes dogs and his tea with a splash of Jane Eyre and honestly Alex would make a way better first date for him than all those other guys combined. When one of Henry’s old dates shows up uninvited, Alex is only too happy to prove his point.

Summary
“Hazza, darling,” Percy coos through the cell bars. “Your knights in shining armour have arrived. Alex is talking to the police officer and sorting out the legal stuff, and I am here for moral support.”
“Alex Alex?”
“Yes, Hazza. Your Alex.”
He’s certainly not Henry’s Alex. Not anymore.
“Surely you could have called someone else?”
“All I know is that I rang him and said we have a damsel in distress and he was at my front door ten minutes later.”
--
Henry ends up in jail after a terrible first date. It's pretty convenient that his best friend is a lawyer. If only they were still speaking to each other.
