    Summary

    Once the room clears, Nick takes a deep breath. “So, half-term. How have your exams been going?”

    “Can I suck you off?”

    Charlie is patient as Nick does a double-take at his request, staggering back and knocking over a bottle of tequila. He sips his vodka lemonade and waits.

    “What, er—now?!” Nick splutters.

    “Why not?” He’s emboldened now. This loop is quickly becoming hell on earth, but maybe it doesn’t have to be, not all the time. There are no consequences for him in the loop. Anything he does is forgotten the next day. Nick could scream at him, punch him in the nose, do whatever he wants—tomorrow, he’ll still be here, serving him a vodka lemonade with a shy smile. What has he got to lose?

    Summary

    This is all too much. The snow, the lost luggage, the jetlag, the entire last year with Ben. I want to sit here, flat on my ass in the middle of the concrete, and cry. But the big mitten is already in front of my face.
    “Up you go.” The hand inside the mitten is strong and I’m back on my feet easily.
    I try to steady myself. Physically and mentally.
    “Take this,” I hear, and the next moment, his coat clamps around me, the hood spilling over my forehead. I’m immediately enveloped in blissful warmth.
    ---
    OR: AU where Nick and Charlie meet in a study abroad program at a university in the North Carolina mountains. They drink cocoa, play in the snow, and of course, fall in love.
