   Summary

   Charlie doesn’t have an issue with Nick being straight. Nick is very sweet and caring, and a great best friend.

   The only issue is that Charlie, against his better judgement, is falling in love with him.

   or: Nick and Charlie meet as they move into a flatshare. They quickly become best friends and everything is going great, except... Charlie is utterly smitten. And it seems like Nick needs tons of physical affection to thrive. Constantly. Repeatedly. And Charlie is the only person around.

   Charlie doesn't mind. That's what friends are for, right?
