    Summary

    Nick is trying to fix a stubborn old pen brought over to the counter for him to work his magic. With a confident click of his lighter, Nick knows it will only take a moment. Then the bell above the shop door chimes, and he lifts his gaze for a fraction of a second.

    Curly hair. Deep blue eyes.

    “Shit!” Warm ink bleeds onto his hands, and when he tosses the hot pen and his lighter onto the counter, more specks fly onto his white shirt.


    Or, Nick Nelson works at his family's stationary shop and a cute guy walks in at the worst moment.

    Summary

    Nick Nelson, 24, is struggling to process the massive change of direction his life has taken in such a short period of time. Money is tight and his mental health is frayed.
    His friends and family are worried about him, but he's fine, just fine. Honest.

    His best friends, Tara and Darcy, persuade him that the solution to his money worries is to rent out his spare room for 6 months. He just needs to find someone suitable.

    Charlie Spring, 22, is fed up of being walked all over by his (ex) boyfriend. He needs to move out of their shared flat ASAP if Ben is ever going to accept that they are over. He just needs to find somewhere affordable and, preferably, available immediately - not an easy feat in London. His sister suggests he should look slightly further afield. Kent sounds like a good option.

    Summary

    AU inspired by Taylor's song Maroon, where Nick and Charlie are adults leading two separate lives.They used to go out years ago, before their long distance relationship while balancing uni and life in general had become too much. Eventually their relationship of almost 5 years came to an end and the two haven't seen each other since the rather painful break up. Every once in a while they find themselves traveling back to those days in their minds, as memories are a lot harder to lose than people.

    After bumping into each other at Harry Greene's wedding one summer night years later, their old friendship rekindles. Both are determined not to mess up the friendship this time, as it's a part they both miss from the times of their relationship. Exes can be friends, right?

    What neither of them knows though, is that life has other plans…

    -

    They have their backs facing his direction, but Charlie would recognize that voice and the freckled neck peeking from under the collar of the white shirt any day. His chest feels tight. There was a time he knew the exact amount of the freckles on that neck. On that body and face. He had made a mission out of kissing every single one.

    " Fuck " he mutters. Nick.

    Summary

    Charlie swung the door open, and his world promptly came crashing down around him.
    It had been seven years since Charlie last saw Nick Nelson, but he had barely changed – aside from the extra inch or so of height, the beard, and the fact he’d put on a bit of weight and muscle. Charlie’s brain couldn’t process it quickly enough, and so he simply stood, slack-jawed, waiting for Nick to say something.

    Seven years after they broke up, Nick suddenly shows up at Charlie's door and changes the course of their adult lives.
