Summary
“I’ve been trying, angel,” Crowley said, his words blurring together. “I’ve been trying to go slow, do things your way. I know you want me to, I thought it would make— make liking me, lov- being around me, easier for you. If I liked the things that you like. You know, food, and books, and bloody tartan.” His nose wrinkled in frustration.
“Crowley, my dear,” Aziraphale said. “Please don’t misunderstand, of course I enjoy sharing the things I like with you, but I— I love you, Crowley. I’m in love with a demon who drives too fast, and dresses like a goth, and likes gardening and disco and bebop. And I know that that demon doesn’t like everything I like, and that’s fine. Because I love him.”
“Aziraphale,” Crowley whispered. When Aziraphale looked up, Crowley was giving him a watery smile.
“Oh, my dear,” Aziraphale murmured, and opened his arms.

Summary
“Hey, Aziraphale,” Crowley said, and Aziraphale hated (loved) the way that low voice sent a pleasant shiver down his spine. “Angel. You should kiss me, since you’re apparently so experienced. Just so I know what it's like.”
Aziraphale’s breath caught in his throat. “I… I don’t know if that would be the best idea,” he said softly, avoiding Crowley’s eyes and fixing his attention on the wooden grain of the table. I’m in love with you, he couldn’t say. I’ve been in love with you for decades, centuries, and knowing what it would be like to kiss you while knowing it’s something I can’t ever have would just make everything worse.

Summary
Crowley stared at him and tried to reconcile the sweet, loving angel in front of him and the hurt expression he had seen on Aziraphale’s face in his dream. He sniffled, and then began to cry— shuddery, wretched sobs that shook his body and hollowed out his chest.
“Oh, my dear,” Aziraphale murmured, and then opened his arms. "Come here, love."
When Crowley’s tears had subsided into wet hiccups, Aziraphale murmured, “Do you want to talk about it, or would you prefer to forget about it?”
Crowley curled into Aziraphale’s side a little more, and Aziraphale’s arm gently gathered him a little closer. After a long moment, Crowley said hesitantly, “I was dreaming about—” He took a deep, shuddery breath, clinging a little closer.
“I wasn’t myself,” Crowley murmured, and squeezed his eyes shut for just a moment before looking up at Aziraphale. “Angel, am I too mean to you?"

Summary
Crowley has worked the same soulless job for two decades, and he hasn't had anyone to talk to since his pet snake died a couple years ago. When Industrial Holdings (Holdings) PLC sends him to their annual conference in the US, he expects a week of mind-numbing boredom bookended by two torturous half-days spent in airplanes.
But as fate would have it, an embarrassing mishap leads him to meet an unrelentingly positive flight attendant who smiles at him like he's a real human being, and makes him think that maybe, if he plays this right, he won’t have to die alone.
