    Summary

    Honestly, sometimes having a kid is so fucking annoying. Like when your eight year old comes home from her tia’s and talks about the economics of a lemonade stand, for fuck’s sake, and puts together such a convincing pitch that even thinking about saying no makes him feel like a complete dick.

    So now he’s using a nail gun he borrowed from his neighbour to help her make a little stand out of lumber. And somehow, he hopes anyway, not making it look like something she’s gonna get tetanus from or get crushed by.

    She looks cute as hell in her little overalls, though.

    Or, Alex’s kid has a lemonade stand, and Henry is their best customer.

    Summary

    “What about you, Alex?”

    Alex startles out of a daydream. Something about lakes and docks and inhaling a breath before you hit the water. He thinks the blonde’s name is Shauna or Shayla or something. He can’t quite remember. He’ll figure it out later. “What about me?”

    She grins over the top of her beer. “Any girls in your life?”

    Alex wants to roll his eyes at her assumption about his sexuality. Yeah, okay, she’s known him for all of a month, and sure, he looks like your stereotypical jock, but he kind of thought college kids would be up on this stuff automatically.

    Alex shrugs. “I’m probably gonna marry this guy Henry someday, but we’re not together.”

    ...

    Alex and Henry meet as teenagers one summer in Texas, and almost every summer after.

    acdiaz how well does @hrhprincehenry know me really??? Time to find out! Full disclosure: he had to be bribed with jaffa cakes to do this, but it was worth it. Every single answer is VERBATIM and if he tells you otherwise it's a LIE.
