Summary
Nick gets hurt playing rugby (How original, I know) and we'll see how he struggles to heal, both physically and mentally.
We end up with an angsty Nick, who has to deal with some of his own insecurities and issues. He doesn't need to be taken care of, it's his job to take care of others. By the end, he will end up realizing that he needs other people (mainly Charlie) as much as they need him.
Basically, I kind of wanted to explore what it would be like if Nick was the more vulnerable or "hurt" one and Charlie gets to be the strong/badass guy we know he's gonna be some day.
There will be angst and drama, but there will 1000% be a happy ending. These two boys deserve it.
PS: The main story I wanted to tell is complete, but I'm not done here. I'm going to be writing various epilogue chapters, that jump ahead to various points in time, which will tie back to the main story.

Summary
“Honestly,” Nick says, dumbfounded, “It’s like I’ve never been home alone before.”
Charlie raises a bemused eyebrow.
“Well.” Nick corrects himself, a little sheepish, handing him a piece of crumpled notepaper. “Home parentless, then, if we’re getting technical about it.”
When Sarah goes on holiday, Nick and Charlie are left to play house.
(A story about house rules, rom-coms, invisible strings and Charlie being Sarah's favourite son).

“He’s just so worried, Tori. So worried. So worried.” Charlie let his head roll to the other side and back again.
Tori swallowed. “What about your arm, then?”
Charlie looked down at the sling. “Rugby?”
“You haven’t played rugby in over twelve months.”
“Details!” Charlie scoffed.
Tori took a deep breath, studying her brother. This was not going to end well.

Summary
I couldn’t bear it any longer. I gathered him into a tight hug, blanket and all. My cheek pressed against his neck, and I was reminded once again of the heat coming off his skin. “You’re running a temp,” I murmured.
“Am I?” Charlie said blearily.
“Yep.” I stroked back his curls and pressed a kiss to his too-warm brow. “You self-sacrificial idiot. What am I going to do with you?”
When the Truham rugby team is down two players ahead of their upcoming match, Nick turns to Charlie for help. Little does he know, Charlie isn’t feeling too well himself.
But of course, Charlie agrees to play anyway. And they both have to deal with the consequences.
or
An absolute saga of a sickfic feat. sick!Charlie and later sick!Nick, questionable self-care and a whole lot of cuddles.

Summary
“I just didn’t think being on my own would be this hard,” he sobbed.
At this, every part of Sarah wanted to reach through the screen, brush the tears from his feverish cheeks, and whisper, you’re not on your own. But she couldn’t. So instead, she simply stayed on the phone with him, two-hundred miles away, and reminded him, over and over again, to breathe.
When Nick’s first rodeo with freshers’ flu hits worse than anticipated, Sarah summons him back home to recharge.
