Your gateway to endless inspiration
RWRB New Year's Gift Exchange!
Had the absolute honor to write for @raysletters' prompts in this event. I hope it's up to par, and a good read. Hehe.
Three prompts were given, but I went with this and put my own twist into it: Henry and Alex don't know each other, except they end up fake-dating for the chance to buy their favorite pastry at their local coffee shop, who is apparently now selling said pastry ONLY on a promo combo for couples.
This guy, Henry, Alex remembers hearing that earlier, was now widening his eyes in bits while his mouth continued saying words Alex isn't quite registering at the moment. Alex is almost convinced he could watch and hear this man talk forever and he’d never get tired of it. “Would you want to be my fake boyfriend then?” Those words register to Alex perfectly. “Do I look gay to you?” Is the first thing Alex ever says back to Henry.
Once again, thanks for setting this up, @rwrbnygiftexchange! Happy new year to you too! 🫶
