Summary
Charlie Spring is hiding out the back of this house party, avoiding his shitty transphobic cheating dickhead ex, when an absurdly attractive man lands on the sofa he's staked out, trying to steer clear of a girl who won't take no for an answer.
When she comes looking, Charlie feels obliged to suggest they make out. Just so she gets the message. An act of pure selflessness on his part.

Summary
“So, my dad is having this big family get together in Paris, like some Fournier family reunion or something. And he’s invited me and I mean, I don’t want to go but I sort of have to, especially since David is going and well, I mean, as much as I hate my dad and don’t care I also can’t really disappoint him and-”
“Nick,” Charlie said gently, reaching his hand back out and grabbing Nick’s wrist again. “Breathe, alright? You’re getting all worked up about it.”
“Sorry,” Nick said, using the hand Charlie wasn’t holding to take a sip of his soda. “So um, not only did he invite me but he invited you.”
“Me?” Charlie quested, his eyebrows rising high. “Why?”
“I sort of never told him we broke up.”
(or Nick and Charlie date in uni and break up. Except Nick doesn't tell anyone they break up and opps, now Charlie's invited to a family thing, the only solution? Fake date.)

Summary
Inspired by Date Me, Bryson Keller.
Everyone knows about the bet. Each week, Nick Nelson, the Rugby King of Truham Grammar, must date someone new — the first person to ask him out on Monday morning. Until a boy asks him out, and everything changes.
Charlie Spring is shocked when Nick agrees to secretly date him. But as the week goes by, Charlie discovers there's more to Nick than he'd previously realized, and the fake dating starts to feel an awful lot like real dating. As he gets in deeper and deeper, can Charlie deal with the fact that this relationship will end after one week? After all, Nick is popular, handsome and straight. Right?

Summary
And so, this year, on a bright and cold January second, wrapped up in bed with a hangover and a pit in his stomach, Nick had resolved to do the one thing that he’d been tiptoeing around for the past four years: tell Charlie Spring he loves him.
At every turn so far, Nick has chickened out.
Now though, with two and a half hours until the new year arrives, he has no choice but to be brave.
--
Prompt: Sarah always used to tell Nick that new year's resolutions were magical and to use them only for things he really really cares about. At the start of the year, Nick made a New Year's Resolution to tell his best friend Charlie that he's in love with him but has kept chickening out. Now, it's Dec 31st and he's desperately trying to tell him before midnight because he's convinced if he doesn't then it's bad luck. It's a NYE party, and they keep getting interrupted by friends etc.

Summary
Charlie has graduated from the Royal Veterinary College. Now that he’s newly graduated, he’s hoping to gain further experience at a clinic in London. A nice, clean, modern clinic where he would see a variety of small, well behaved pets.
Instead, he finds out he is going to the Yorkshire Dales to assist a regional vet during the lambing season.
Charlie is less than thrilled and is determined to hate it. Wouldn't you know it though-there is a ginger farmer on the local Nelson farm who finds the stubborn, grumpy vet quite intriguing.

Summary
Six years ago, soon after Charlie started uni, Nick and Charlie broke up. And their lives have been fine since. Really. It’s fine.
Then they run into each other at a wedding, and it ignites a spark they had long since thought extinguished. But they can’t be long-distance again, they know it doesn’t work.
A relationship, anyway. The sex still seems to be good.
So maybe just a little bit, then. Once a year. This is too good to let go of completely. Right?

Summary
There’s an angel at this Halloween party, and Nick hasn’t been able to take his eyes off of him all night.
Nick knows he shouldn’t stare—he’s usually very good at that—but whenever he looks up from his drink, he finds him. He has thrice missed his mouth when taking a drink just looking at him. There’s more on Nick’s shirt than in his stomach, which would matter if he cared. He doesn’t. He just wants the angel’s attention.
or, Charlie is an angel—at this Halloween party and beyond; Nick knows it all too well.
