I know you didn’t write the after break up Alex fic in Prince George AU but I really like your George pieces, do you have any Alex thoughts angsty or otherwise from this universe that you felt like sharing?

YES and as always i discussed this with my legally wedded wife @prettydangrotten and we circled back to winter wonderland alex...

winter wonderland is this horribly overpriced and overcrowded fair in hyde park; it's also incredibly fun. alex goes with his friends - charles lets pierre hold his hand because he's "cold" and because pierre has finally slept with the older man who got them tickets to the PL game and he's horribly jealous. naomi (alex's coworker from gabby's brilliant installment) and her partner is also there - alex feels a bit weird, tagging along alone, but they're good fun; he's missed spending time with them. he hasn't been to winter wonderland in a few years.

his eyes keep catching on their joint hands and he keeps thinking of george - george, who couldn't even come anyway because it's too much of a security risk with the crowd, let alone get on the stupid rides with alex so he can clutch on his hand when it gets scary. but he can't stop thinking of how george would lend him his gloves and try to rub some warmth back into alex's icy fingers: cupping them against his mouth to breath hot against them.

and worst is, charles keep saying that they'll hook him up with someone. pierre makes an offhand comment about keeping his eyes open, maybe he'll see someone worth his while. and alex is like yeah guys, you're right. but he doesn't want anyone else in that moment, no matter how many dates he's been on since he and george--

Pierre and Charles groping each other all night -- which Alex couldn’t have done, ever; even if they could be in public together.

and when they're debating what to eat, alex thinks about how george'd insist to get them both bratwurst, stay in the queue with jenson while he makes alex sit down with charles, close to a heat lamp ): they'd share the stupidly big portion of churros so alex wouldn't feel like dying after wolfing it down alone :(

how he'd give george a soft chaste kiss as thanks for bringing him the mulled wine he didn't even say he wanted, only looked at the vendor for too long, and george immediately going to join the queue-

“George, seriously you don’t have to,”

“Just wait!” George would laugh, “I’ll be right back, stay here with the heater.”

Except it’s all just - pretend. Alex doesn’t know what George is like in the real world.

(He tells himself when in fact he knows George more earnestly and better than anyone in the whole world.)

#yes i didn't bother to fix the punctuation because i type like this and it would have been too exhausting and this has been A Week #just -- it's an objectively sad london day with fog and the lightest rain but they just put their caps on #he keeps looking at pierre's grin and how he teases charles but never lets him out of his sight #he's never felt incredibly strongly about handholding but suddenly feels like he's going to die if someone doesn't take his hand soon #he wants someone to take care of him #and other people keep giving him Looks and checking him out but it just feels. wrong #keeps thinking about how he's tug george in the shadow of a bush and kiss him until george would blink at him dazed and say 'Blimey'#everyone say THANK YOU GABBY for hurting us with that image :(#prince au #rosy.ask #i'm sorry i'm so late to everything i am Trying lollll #george/alex
