Summary
In the midst of the zombie apocalypse, 21 year old Charlie and his hormonal teenage brother are making their way from Edinburgh to Manchester on foot. They’ve heard it’s become somewhat of a sanctuary after London was ravaged by the undead. It’s also the last place their sister was known to be alive.
Nick is also looking for sanctuary after losing his brother and only travel companion. He’s not built to brave this world alone, and wants a fresh start. A support system. A family.
Unfortunately he stumbles upon a couple of extremely rude, aggressive, bickering little dickheads instead.

Summary
Charlie wants his ex back. The problem is he’s in a new relationship, and this time it’s an open one.
He knows they go to swingers parties together. He wants to go too, to prove he could be into that sort of thing. It's couples only. Not ideal, but also not a problem he can't solve.
He needs to find a fake boyfriend, and fast. Enter Nick Nelson from work, serial womaniser and all-round irritating human being. He’s not Charlie’s first pick, but he’s probably the only person crazy and horny enough to go along with it. After all, it’s an opportunity for him to get laid as much as he wants while Charlie attempts to seduce his ex all over again. Win win.
What could possibly go wrong?

Summary
March 2024: Nick and Charlie, platonic soulmates and partners in crime, are on the road trip of a lifetime around the beautiful and magical east coast of Australia. Charlie has barely seen his best friend since he left for uni over two years ago, and he's looking forward to catching up over three sun-soaked weeks packed full of breathtaking scenery, local wildlife, moonlit parties and seriously hot surfers.
September 2015: 13-year-old Nick Nelson has no idea who he is or where he fits in. Then 11-year-old Charlie Spring, anxious overthinker and raging introvert, crashes rather messily into his life and changes it forever.
A story about friendship, love and growing up, with a generous sprinkling of true travel stories, savage British banter and horny sparkles.

Summary
My first so-called relationship was difficult and unfulfilling, bruising my heart, turning it black and blue. His kisses were cold and hard, numbing my cornflower lips. The colour blue…it’s not something I’d ever have associated with the love or happiness I was so desperately seeking.
Then I met Nick.

A super short, fluffy thing I wrote that popped into my head this morning. 💙

Summary
Charlie watches as the broad figure of his favourite customer slips through the door and disappears into the darkness of the bleak winter evening. He’s eternally grateful for the fact that the shop has pretty much emptied out now, and Elliot is occupied with washing up in the back room, giving him a moment alone to sigh dreamily to himself as he stares after him and lets the residual fluttering in his stomach settle back down to normal.
—————
Or, Charlie is slowly having his soul crushed working as a barista, but at least he has the daily visit from his favourite regular customer to look forward to. A coffee shop AU.
