Secret relationship prompt!!! Omg this is fun. 23, rarepair of your choice
After Alex comes out to his parents, he spends less and less time at home, and more and more time in Bobby's garage. Here, he has his friends, a decent selection of snacks, and no judgement over his desire to kiss boys.
That last one is kind of important, since his parents hadn't taken him being gay very well. There was a lot of pray for his mortal soul and talk of hellfire, most of which Alex drowned out with Rush and Whitney Houston.
But the garage was his sanctuary.
One afternoon, it was just him and Bobby. Luke had a dentist appointment and Reggie had to take Alfie to a swimming lesson. So Alex was sat at this drums, tapping out a simple rhythm while Bobby was lying back on the couch, nose in a book.
"Not heading out then?" Bobby asked from behind the pages.
"Nope," Alex replied, popping the p. "You want me to stop playing though or need to kick me out, just say the word."
"Nah, hang as long as you want, you're not bothering me. Heck, stay for dinner if you want, lola always makes too much." Bobby gave him a sidelong glance. "You can sleep over too. I know how much your parents are being sucky."
"I say they'd call the cops if they knew I was staying over with another boy. Or Father Thomas," Alex snarked. "But dinner sounds nice. Celia is a way better cook than my mom."
"Cool." Bobby then went back to his book, and Alex to his drums. But soon enough he got bored, and went over to the couch, sliding himself under Bobby's feet.
"Read to me."
"I'm half way through the book, you won't know what's going on."
"That doesn't matter, I just like hearing you talk."
"Okay weirdo," Bobby said, but Alex could see the pleased little grin on his face, and then he started reading. Sure, Alex didn't have a damn clue what the book was about or what was going on, but Bobby's voice was soft and soothing, making him feel comfortable and relaxed.
Later, they'd go in and join Celia for a meal, and she assured him she'd straighten it out with his parents to let him stay. Even gave him a hug, and it felt like home in way his own house hadn't in so long.
They squeezed into Bobby's double bed, his little TV playing some sitcom or another as background noise.
"Hey Al?"
Alex turned his head, and could see Bobby's fingers twisting in the duvet, but he knew touching him right now would get him to shut down. Just grunted in response to let him know he was listening.
"What's it like to kiss a guy?"
"No clue."
"Really?"
"I don't exactly have a lot of options lining up and offering themselves for smooches here Robin," Alex snarked, then blew out a breath. "I'm sure it's a lot like kissing a girl, only with facial hair and stinkier breath. But... probably way nicer for me, because I want to kiss them. Not have to for the sake of some game of spin the bottle or coming out ball ritual."
"There are balls when you come out? Shit, were we supposed to throw you a ball?" Bobby asked, looking almost mildly panicked.
"Not the same kind of coming out. This is debutante shit for my parents' country club. I had to escort Marianna Whelan last spring and she conned me into a kiss. It was very sloppy and kinda gross. I'd rather have kissed her brother Fritz, but that would have been the scandal of the year."
"Is there anyone you wanna kiss now?"
"Why, are you offering?" Alex quipped, but then he saw the shy look on Bobby's face. "Shit, you are. God Bobbers, I'd love to kiss you, but you're also my best friend. I don't wanna fuck that up."
"You won't," Bobby said, turning on his side so he was facing Alex. "It's just a kiss. To see if we like it. We don't have to tell anyone, not even Luke and Reggie. I know they'll be supportive, but..."
"They'd make a big deal out of it," Alex finished. "You sure?"
Bobby nodded, and Alex scooted in closer, his big hand tilting Bobby's chin up, the light of the TV painting his skin a pale blue, catching on the angles and making him look captivating. Alex let his eyes flutter closed, and press his lips in.
The kiss was a little dry, a mere peck. But Bobby pressed in further, opening up a little, his tongue teasing over the seam of Alex's mouth. Then it was in Alex's mouth.
Bobby tasted like toothpaste and the plain chap stick he'd applied before bed. He had the faintest traces of stubble lining his jaw and upper lip.
It was so different from kissing Marianna.
And so much better.
Eventually they pulled apart, blinking at one another. "Verdict?" Alex whispered, not wanting to break the moment with loudness.
"I liked it," Bobby surmised. "Not sure if it was because it was with a boy, or if it was because it was with you, but I liked it." He paused a moment, licking over his lips again. "I think I'm okay not knowing, but only if I can keep kissing you."
Alex grinned and pulled him in for a second kiss. Wetter and a bit less polished, but glorious all the same.
They fell asleep, lips brushing together and tingling. They still didn't know if the kissing was so great because of the circumstances or the other boy, but they figured they could do a few more experiments to find out.
In the end, they decided it didn't really matter. They just knew that they liked kissing one another.
And when they ended up getting caught kissing, Luke and Reggie did have a minor freak out, until they confessed they had known since almost the beginning, and wished them nothing but happiness.
But they totally also threw a mock coming out ball for the two of them in the garage, which Alex scowled at, but also admitted was the sweetest gesture that allowed him to have a new untainted memory of the tradition as he swayed with his new boyfriend to the music.
And treasured the photo Reggie took of the two of them kissing in their suits for the rest of his life.

going to the beach at night- julie
Thanks for the prompt, anon! I hope you enjoy! This is part of my and @joyandthephantoms's soft verse-- Julie/Luke qpps, trans Luke, Alex is Julie's adopted brother, Alex/Bobby at this point in the timeline.
Send me prompts!
The fact that she makes it all the way to the beach without her phone blowing up with frantic “Where are you?!” texts tells Julie that her sneaking out was a resounding success.
It’s just after 2am, and the shore is dark and chilly, the cold sand illuminated only by stars and the lights of the city behind it. Julie kicks her sandals off and sits by the edge of the water, letting the evening tide lap over her bare toes.
There’s nowhere better to be alone with her thoughts than the beach at night. Julie closes her eyes, breathes in the salty sea air, and thinks to herself, Time to figure this out.
And then a voice behind her says< “Oh, you’re gonna be in so much trouble if Mom and Dad find you here.”
Julie scrambles to her feet, biting back a scream. When she registers her older brother standing barefoot in the sand, smirking at her, she whacks him with the back of her hand. “Alex! Don’t scare me like that!”
“Well?” He laughs and settles down into the sand next to her. “What are you doing here, kid? It’s the middle of the night.”
“Yeah, look who’s talking,” Julie grumbles, but she sits down again, scooting closer so she can nudge her shoulder against Alex’s. “I just needed to get out. Clear my head.”
“Yeah, I’ve been there.”
They sit in silence together for a while, listening to the waves crash along the beach, and then Julie says, “Are you in love with Bobby?”
Alex blows out a long breath. “Shit, Jules, coming in with the hard-hitting questions now, are we?”
Julie hugs her knees. “Well, come on, are you? You’ve been dating him for, like ever. Mom thinks you’re gonna marry him.”
Even in the dark, she can see Alex’s blush. “I am not gonna—” he starts, then presses his mouth closed and takes a deep breath through his nose. “Ask your real question. Is this about Luke?”
Julie hums, resting her chin on her knees. In the distance, some kind of fish leaps out of the water, like it’s waving at them. “I guess. Yeah.”
“You don’t think you’re in love with him?”
“I don’t think he’s in love with me…”
With each calming breath, Julie filters through another memory— Luke on their anniversary, asking why they had to go on some special date just because it had been a year since he first asked her out; Luke at the homecoming dance, spinning Julie around and complaining about the DJ’s music taste in the same breath; Luke in her bedroom window last night, crying that he must be broken, that he’s not good enough for her, that she should just break up with him and find someone who’ll treat her the way she deserves.
“I don’t want to break up with him,” she whispers, letting the breeze carry her voice away.
Alex makes a thoughtful sound. “Would anything really change if you did? You guys were creepy-close long before you put a label on it. Just go back to that and also see other people if you want.”
Julie doesn’t think she wants to see other people, but she gets Alex’s point. She and Luke wouldn’t have to spend any less time together than they do now. They already don’t do more than kiss, and Luke seems to find even that somewhere between boring and disgusting. Would anything really have to change if she just… stopped calling him her boyfriend?
“Look,” Alex says, pushing himself to his feet. “I won’t pretend I’m any kind of expert on this stuff. Bobby and I… Sometimes, I feel like he’s only dating me cause no one else will.”
“What? He wouldn’t—” Julie starts to protest, but Alex holds a hand up, cutting her off.
“Sometimes, I feel like I’m only dating him cause no one else will, too. It’s whatever, it’s high school. My point is…” He brushes the sand off his legs and holds a hand out to help Julie up. “Do whatever’s gonna make you both happy. And whatever’s gonna make sure that kid sticks around, cause he’s good for you. But don’t date him just cause you think you’re supposed to. That’s not fair to either one of you.”
“Yeah, I guess you’re right.” Julie hugs him tightly around the waist; her head only barely comes up to Alex’s chest. “Thank you.”
“Hey, what are big brothers for?” He ruffles her hair. “Now, come on. Let’s get home before someone wakes up and realizes we’re gone— I do not need Ray’s ‘mad at the GPS’ face trained on me tonight.”

“It’s the same person,” Alex says.
Willie and Reggie stare at him. Clearly, neither of them understands the gravity of the situation.
“The same person who had Sanditon,” he explains. “It’s them again, I just know it. They - they’re sabotaging me.”
Willie snorts. “Dude, nobody but us three knew you even needed these books. It’s just a coincidence.”
Alex shakes his head.
“No, this is personal. Someone is trying to stop me from writing this essay.”
“How much coffee have you had today?” Reggie asks. “Did you get one of the pink ones again? They do weird things to your brain, Alex, you know this.”
“It’s not the coffee,” Alex protests. “It’s sabotage and I know it.”
