Summary
He probably should have known right then, the moment he saw them. Down the street some distance, crowding around the mouth of a narrow little alley. The way they were standing said trouble, sure enough: looming, tense shoulders and jutted-out chins, brief sharp movements of their hands and arms.
He should have known trouble meant Johnny.
But he didn't think of it, didn't realize. He saw there was somebody cornered, getting shoved around a little—and it wasn't till one of them finally threw a punch, knocked that somebody's hat off and gave Henry a nice clear view of a flash of wheat-gold hair, that Henry felt his breath hitch and fumbled his way into motion.

Summary
John gives up, letting his head drop into his hands. He is being punished. He’s not sure what for exactly, but it must be something terribly wicked or unforgivably ordinary or maybe this is just who he is: John Irving, a man destined to get trapped in the sweater of life only to emerge wearing it backwards.
He looks up into Tommy’s big pretty eyes that stare back at him as though he’s just told him he’d like to give it all up for a serious shot at a career as a mime. “What do I do?”
Tommy’s expression shifts into a mean edged sort of pity. He shrugs. “Pray?”

Summary
Edward's hands traced up the tight thighs straddled over him, to the joint of his hips where a well-fitted waistcoat hugged a familiar, lean abdomen. He knew his lover’s waist.
“Good evening, Mr. Jopson.”
Little, stricken with snowblindness, is visited in the night.

Summary
What do you think of Francis?” Sophy asks teasingly. “Or is that project manager more your type?”
Edward Little. Much closer to his own age, with a questionable amount of sideburn that bordered dangerously close to muttonchop and a face that seemed to vacillate between downtrodden and genuine surprise at feeling anything else. The man’s big brown eyes had been following him around the office since eight in the morning on his very first day. He thinks he could really come to like sweet Edward Little— if he wasn’t completely decided on having Francis for his own.
There’s no need for his competition to know that, though.
”Mr Crozier is nearly twice my age.” He demurs.
Sophia’s keen eyes stare right through him. She lifts a single blonde eyebrow. “That isn’t a no.”
______A modern office AU where Edward learns you do occasionally get what you want, Thomas learns the importance of healing, and everyone lives Happily Ever After.
