    Summary

    Harris is caught a little off-guard when he gets an email from the new social media intern asking for some help with a video she's been working on... And he's even more confused when he sees just how poorly filmed and sloppily edited the video is.

    Until he realizes who really made it.

    (Or, with a little help from his teammates, Troy finally proposes to Harris, and tooth-rotting fluff ensues)

    Summary

    Shane lifts one eyelid again to look at Rozanov. His eyes are red-rimmed. Like he’s been crying. “Why…why aren’t you in Boston?”

    Rozanov’s brow furrows. “Why would I be in Boston?”

    “You, you’re captain. Raiders. Boston.”

    The room is silent except for the beeping of monitors.

    In 2023, Shane takes a bad hit on the ice. When he wakes up, the last thing he remembers is a tuna melt.

    There’s a lot to get used to.

    Summary

    "Did I pass the test?" Ilya said, trying to hide the flair of annoyance that sparked deep within his chest. He couldn’t help it. She was making him feel like he was on trial. "I am trying not to take offense to this, but when have I ever been at risk for leaking confidential details? Contract or not." Svetlana just hmmm’d to herself.

    "The client insisted on the contract, my hands were tied. In order to read the brief, you had to sign. I'm sorry. You have my implicit trust, Ilyusha. I hope you know."

    "The client insisted? Please, put me out of my misery. Who is this client?"

    or

    Shane gets viciously outed, and seeks confidential, professional Dominant services to cope with the fallout.

    Summary

    31 year old Nick Nelson retired from professional rugby and is giving Sarah Nelson a well-deserved year off from running Lavender Fields Bed and Breakfast. And Nick’s doing fine, thank you very much. Until the guest name C. Spring changes everything.

    Note: 1-31 are the original story (Nick's point of view). Chapters 32 - 60 are from when Charlie bullied me into providing his perspective, too.

    Summary

    If Forget‑Me‑Not was about finding each other, Forget‑Me‑Never is about weaving two lives together.
    This second part picks up right where Part 1 left off, with Nick and Charlie becoming boyfriends. Now, Nick and Charlie are learning how to exist in each other’s worlds - meeting friends and family, sharing routines, making spaces that once belonged to one into places for two.
    But closeness brings vulnerability. Nick, for all his warmth, is forced to face the parts of himself shaped by past relationships - the habits of over‑giving, of losing himself in care. And Charlie, who loves in silence and soft gestures, begins letting Nick see the shadows he’s kept locked away: old traumas, lingering fears, and the quiet scars that come with survival. Their love doesn’t come with big speeches or sweeping gestures; it’s in the small, ordinary moments that add up to something extraordinary.

    YOU MUST READ PART 1 BEFORE THIS PART IF YOU WANT IT TO MAKE SENSE :O

    Summary

    Charlie Spring is training for the Edinburgh marathon to raise money for his old inpatient unit when he comes across a handsome personal trainer in the form of Nick Nelson. When Nick agrees to help Charlie with his conditioning training, how long will it be before, he offers a little more than PT services.... Not long. The answer is not long.

    Much outrageous flirting, some Nick being completely deer in the headlights, and quite a good deal of spice!

    "He jogs lightly onward to the next bench down the path, as he does his eye is drawn somewhat to the auburn haired instructor currently, shouting out warmly encouraging words of affirmation to his doting clientele. Who could blame them really. His broad chest strains against the taught dark grey fabric of his vest and as he reaches back behind his head demonstrating the perfect triceps stretch, Charlie has to swallow down a rising tide of impure thoughts at the site of those arms. Focus, Charlie..."

    Summary

    Nick Nelson is fed up. With some encouragement from his beloved mum, he decides to head to Cornwall for the summer so he can reset and hopefully even cheer himself the fuck up. There, he meets Charlie Spring; sarcastic and self-assured and a little bit lost himself. It’s amazing what six weeks, near-constant rain and a little bit of opening up can do for you.

    or

    A love letter to Cornwall, to cosiness, and to love. Hopefully.

    Summary

    Nick is 30 years old and coming to terms with his bisexuality for the first time in his life. He decides it might be time to go to therapy only he finds himself in the situation of meeting the man of his dream in the form of his therapist.

    A story about what happens when you love someone you're not allowed to - and the mistakes made along the way.

    It's in the tags but - please be aware it's not my intention to produce a morality free fic, where we are fetishizing a patient therapist relationship - it's about what happens when you meet the right person in entirely the wrong circumstances and if there is ever a way to redefine a relationship as something new. Much more on this topic in the notes!!

     

    "He looks to the source of the soft, kindly voice from the doorway in the corner of the waiting room. He swallows thickly. This wasn’t what therapists were meant to look like. Not that he needed an old man in tweed with a beard, or a grey haired lady in her 50s wearing tie die and sandals but.... surely therapists weren’t allowed to be this ... hot. Fuck."

    “My abuela always said. ‘You like because, and you love despite.’ You like someone because of all of their qualities, and you love someone despite some of their qualities.”

    “You know what it means, sweetheart.”

    Percy and Nora are tired of their bosses being miserable and decide to do what any sane overworked assistants would do - set their bosses up.

    Summary

    “And… well. I wanted to come up with a solution,” Charlie said slowly, the words clumsy on his tongue, like marbles too smooth to hold steady in his mouth. “About us.”

    The silence that followed was not the sharp, dreaded kind. It was patient. A quiet that waited. Nick shifted on the couch beside him, the worn cushions sighing beneath his weight. His face softened, one eyebrow quirking gently upward. “Yeah?” he murmured, voice tinged with both curiosity and caution. “What would that be?”

    Charlie inhaled—deep and shaky, the way one might before diving headfirst into freezing water—and then said it.

    “We could… be friends with benefits?”

     

    Or another uni-boys fic where Nick and Charlie try to do casual but fail miserably.
