    Summary

    When ex-Catholic Charlie Spring begrudgingly agreed to planning a wedding at St. Andrew's church, he didn't expect to work alongside the kind, funny, and impossibly hot Nick Nelson, who just happens to be a newly-ordained priest.

    (Inspired loosely by Season 2 of Fleabag)

    Summary

    🤩 Completed 🤩

    “Good morning Charlie! I’m afraid it’s a seating plan. All part of the new system. I’ve sat you on that table at the back, next to Nick Nelson, whenever he arrives. Uh, that won’t be a problem will it?”
    Oh no, Charlie thought desperately, please, anybody other than Nick Nelson.
    Clearly, Charlie’s hesitation showed, as Mr Lange looked a tad uncomfortable.
     “I need someone I can trust with him, please Charlie?”

    Everyone at Truham Grammar knows Nick Nelson, including a particular curly haired year 10 called Charlie Spring who may or may not have a secret crush from afar on him. When in Year 10, Nick was outed as bisexual and brutally assaulted on school property, closeted Year 9 Charlie vowed he would never tell a soul he was gay until he was done with school. A year later, Nick is out, popular, and King of Rugby. And Charlie? Charlie is so far in the closet he might as well be in Narnia. NOBODY knows Charlie is gay, not even his big sister Tori. Everything is going to stay that way, until a change in form group arrangements threatens everything.

    Summary

    Nick and Charlie meet for the first time at a dog park. Charlie saves a dog from an abusive dickhead and Nick falls a little bit in love. Unfortunately, there are a couple problems with Nick's budding crush. First, it's in the middle of the pandemic, and casually visiting strangers is not exactly a responsible thing to do. Second, Nick is famous. Really famous. Like, A-list actor famous. And between the chaos at the dog park and the whole wearing-a-mask thing, it's possible that Charlie didn't pick up on that minor detail. Shenanigans ensue.

    The original story includes chapters 1-8, completed January 4, 2023. Chapter 9 is a bonus scene.
