    Summary

    Charlie works the night shift at an almost empty café.

    Between hot cups and the yellow glow of the lamps, there is a box where strangers leave anonymous notes: confessions, secrets, little fragments of their lives.

    Nick is a young teacher who has just arrived in town. He spends his nights grading tests and trying to cope with expectations that always seem heavier than he can bear. Despite everything, he cares deeply about his students, noticing details that no one else notices. Inside his mind, he has little pieces of his life and fears that he would never have the courage to express aloud. Even when he is tired or distracted, there is a quiet kindness in him, something that calms and charms anyone lucky enough to cross his path.

    Sweet, shy, and gentle, but full of little vapors that burn slowly, like the aroma of freshly brewed coffee, which can only be smelled when you are close enough.

    Summary

    “But you got me thinking last night,” says Nick. “I couldn’t stand that you thought I just wanted to throw you a—a—”

    “Pity fuck?” Charlie smirks over his tea.

    Nick shakes his head and digs into his own pastry. “Yes, that. You’ve been waiting all these years to meet someone who makes you feel safe and loved. And God, Charlie, you’re my best friend. Of course I want you to have that experience for your first time. So many people’s first times are utter shit. Mine was utter shit. I’d be an awful friend if I didn’t want you to have the best possible experience.”

    Charlie has no idea where he’s going with this.

    “So,” Nick says, a little nervous, “if you don’t want the first experience to be with me, then as your best friend, I feel it is my duty to help you find the person it will be with. If you want.”

    Summary

    Tossing pizza dough isn’t how Nick Nelson expected to use his strong rugby arms after retiring from the Leeds Badgers, but having muscles does help add some extra height to his throws.

    <) OR (>

    An alternate universe where Nick Nelson works at the Domino’s that delivers to a curly-haired, blue-eyed customer he just can’t take his mind off.

    Aka five times that Charlie Spring orders a pizza and one time he doesn’t.

    A silly little 5+1 one-shot plot bunny that I have adopted. Enjoy (please)!

    Summary

    For fans of Heartstopper AND of Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes stories, a collection in which our favorite couple Nick and Charlie are cast as Victorian consulting detectives a la Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson. Dr. Nelson and Charlock Spring fall hard and fast for one another and Dr. Nelson soon finds himself entangled in some of Spring's most baffling (and perilous) cases. The individual stories of the series make reference to earlier cases but are self-contained and can be read without knowing the earlier stories; there may therefore be mild spoilers if you read them out of order. knowledge of Heartstopper canon is not necessary to enjoy them (though for fans there are lots of Easter eggs in the form of canon references!).

    I love comments and try to answer them as often as possible!

    Summary

    “And what exactly does me being nice to you entail in this context?”

    “Stay by my side the rest of the night. Go where I go. Can’t get me alone under the mistletoe if I’m never alone!” Nick grinned with pride, as if he had devised a foolproof plan.

    “So no different than what you two would have done anyway?” Tara smirked knowingly, and Charlie avoided her gaze.

    Or, Nick has to spend the party avoiding Higgs girls under the mistletoe, and Charlie has to spend the party pretending he doesn’t want to meet Nick under that same mistletoe.
