    Summary

    “I don’t need any help with english and if you do, then you’re much more of a brawn-over-brains athlete than I thought you were.”

    “I’m not brawn-over-brains or whatever you just said. I don’t need help with english either.”

    “Then how come you’re insisting on me joining you?”

    “Maybe I just want your company.” the blonde shrugged, and it’s a million shades of pathetic and sweet and curious, “Maybe I want study tips from the cute emo guy on academic scholarship.”

    Or,

    Charlie Spring intended on making the best of his first semester as a student in the international program at Greenwood Appalachian University.

    He didn’t intend on dating, though.

    But then he meets a blonde football player who can’t seem to get enough of him.

    And,

    Nick Nelson enjoyed his role as a rugby prodigy turned scouted quarterback for the Greenwood Appalachian University Mooses well enough.

    He had landed the role of Rush Chair for the Xi Chi Nu fraternity and intended on another year of partying and winning games with his mates.

    But then he meets an emo brunette who seems to be annoyed by his very existence.

    Summary

    Charlie didn't know what to make of Uni. New classes, new people, new possibilities to leave secondary school behind. A fresh start. But what happens when a fresh start isn't that fresh? When the cute new guy you get with is more interesting in sneaking around behind closed doors than his is in you? When your best friend from home all but abandons you to chase a girl he's talked to once? When the Captain of the Rugby team invites you to escape a party and play Mario Kart? Charlie Spring didn't know what to make of Uni, but it certainly wasn't this. And yet? This is new and exciting and strange and for once, Charlie Spring is ready for it.

    Summary

    Nick and his friends have signed up for a three-day reunion hiking trek through the late-autumn hills of Vermont. What he didn't sign up for, though, was for their stunning trail guide to have the most luxurious legs he's ever laid eyes on. Prompted by the need to check for ticks, Nick has some realizations about what he's into, learns a surprising amount about geology, and has a much more fun time than he could have expected.

    Author's first smut! Technically for Kinktober Day 18, but it’s a multichap so we’re approximating.

    Summary

    Fifteen year-old Nick Nelson was fine with his life. Sure, he would have preferred not to have been bullied off the football team for his bisexuality, but he was fine. Really. He had his incredible mother, his best friend, Darcy, his love for baking, and his growing collection of romance novels. He just also happened to have a heaviness hanging over him that he would always be a little broken - a little too much, but somehow never enough. He thought he was fine with that. But, when a beautiful boy with blue eyes, soft curls, and a troubling past moves into the yellow house across the street, Nick starts to find all the ways that two broken souls can mend each other.

    Summary

    Nick Nelson is a rugby prodigy, and he feels all the crushing weight of what that means. His future has never been his to choose, and he's always been okay with that if it meant making his father, rugby legend Stephane, proud. However, when a video of Nick and the boy who awakened his sexuality that Nick had purposefully kept dormant for years kissing is recorded and spread around campus, Nick's world is flipped on its axis. He's forced into a public outing he wasn't quite ready for and Nick is left to deal with the aftermath that leaves him with a lot of drama, hurt, and baggage that he’s not sure he ever wants to unpack. So, he swears off any distractions, closing the door on all of it - love and relationships and his desires to fulfill a part of himself no one else seems to want to accept. If it isn’t about rugby, if it isn’t about fulfilling his pre-determined destiny, he doesn’t entertain it. And it's all okay because all Nick wants for his last year of uni is to be someone his father can be proud of again. That is until he comes across one Charlie Spring.

    Or an au where Nick is struggling to understand himself, Charlie is trying hard to reinvent himself, and the universe is struggling to keep them apart.

    Summary

    Nick Nelson is a hotshot rookie rugby player with a reputation for being an asshole — one his professional achievements don't yet allow for. When an incident with a barista goes viral and threatens to derail contract negotiations, his manager Tara Jones makes Nick team up with a snobby public relations expert named Charlie Spring to rehabilitate his image. It’s immediately clear Nick and Charlie loathe one another. But is that heat hiding something more?

    Summary

    If you are familiar with the story of Cyrano de Bergerac this may ring a bell.

     

    Charlie Spring had been friends with Nick Nelson for 11 months, 19 days, and 6 hours.
    Charlie Spring had been in love with Nick Nelson for 11 months, 19 days, 5 hours and approximately… 50 minutes.
    He was a lost cause. He couldn’t help it, Nick was just so bloody perfect. Irritatingly so, in fact. A great and regular source of disappointment for Charlie was that Nick was also very straight.
    Being friends with the radiant ball of sunshine that was Nick Nelson was better than not knowing him at all though, so he harboured his straight boy crush, love crisis, he let it simmer away in a locked away box in his chest, and became Nick's absolute best friend.
    The bestest of best friends, the worlds best friend you could ever wish for.

    Summary

    Nick Nelson has always followed the golden path carved for him—rugby, fame, expectations set in stone. He could go pro, live up to his father’s legacy, and keep wearing the mask that makes him untouchable. But beneath the victories and the reputation, he feels empty, unsure of who he is beyond the game. He’s always liked silver more than gold, always longed for something softer, something real. And for the first time, he touches silver instead of gold—when a boy with curls and dimples spills coffee on him in a campus café, pulling him out of his carefully crafted life and into something unknown.

    Or when dickish Nick Nelson stumbles upon confident Charlie Spring, he's thrown for a loop on when new feelings arise and he may not be as straight as expected

    Summary

    When Charlie moves into a large old flat in London, he’s just looking for a quiet place to live. But the space feels too empty, too still—and strange things start to happen. The rooms hold memories, the mirrors fog over without reason, and sometimes—just sometimes—he feels like someone is watching him from the stairwell. What he doesn’t know is that Nick Nelson, a gentle 22-year-old who died there nearly a century ago, never left. Haunted by ridicule, softness, and a world that never made space for boys like him, Nick lingers in the silence—waiting for someone who might finally see him.

    Summary

    Here's the thing: soulmates are rare—really rare. Only people with rosemarks even have soulmates, and rosemarks aren't exactly common, are they? It makes sense that there would be so much misinformation out there about what happens in between getting your rosemark and figuring out who your soulmate actually is.

    And there's no way Charlie Spring is Nick's soulmate. There's just no way—not when he's the reason Nick's got Hanahaki Disease and is coughing up petals.
