Summary
“Nick,” Charlie spoke firmly, snapping Nick back to attention. His gaze was trained on Nick, a tinge of desperation seeping into his voice. “Do you not know who I am?”
Nick hesitated a moment. He wracked his poor, throbbing brain one last time for some memory of the boy in front of him. He wished so badly that he could tell Charlie something else, anything else, and not cause him more anguish.
“No, I'm so sorry. I don't remember you.” And then, because he couldn't seem to stop his big mouth. “Should I?”
***
An AU where Nick and Charlie met and get together in uni. Nick has an accident during a rugby game that leaves him with memory issues. Charlie has to help navigate Nick's recovery while dealing with the pain of his boyfriend forgetting him.

Summary
It’s not like I haven’t dated since Charlie and I ended things – or, to be more accurate, since Charlie ripped my heart into a thousand tiny pieces and scattered them into the street, where they promptly tumbled directly down the nearest drain.
That was a long time ago, though. I’m over it.
or
Nick and Charlie are reunited after five years when Charlie moves back to Truham. Charlie is determined to correct the worst mistake of his life and get Nick back. Can they both put the past behind them and move forward together?

Nick and Charlie break up during Nick’s first year of university, this is the story of them finding their way back to each other.

Summary
A doctor steps in and blocks his way. “Sir, you can’t go in there!”
“No, no, no,” says Charlie, “you don’t understand—”
“Are you family?”
“No, but—”
“Family only,” he informs him sternly, disappearing behind the glass door. The doctor joins the throng of medical personnel surrounding the man’s body, and when they wheel the gurney out of sight, Charlie staggers back from the glass wall like he’s been punched.
Shock and helplessness coalesce within him. Inexplicably, he finds himself laughing, his trembling fingers lifting to his lips to contain the mirthless giggles that spill forth. “Oh, God,” he whispers. “I was going to marry that man.”
The nurse at the desk drops her jaw. “Oh, luv.”

Summary
“Yeah, so, I’m gay. That’s not going to be a problem, is it?” He asks, though there’s only one answer to the question that doesn’t end with Charlie storming out and demanding the housing office give him a new roommate.
“Oh god, no. No, that’s not—I’m sorry—I promise it’s not,” Nick races to say, clearly flustered. “I’m not homophobic, I promise. I’m sorry I made you think that. I’m an ally,” he says, holding his fist up, as if in solidarity.
or: After a last minute roommate change, Charlie Spring finds himself sharing a dorm with the hottest man he’s ever seen. Nick Nelson is kind, lovely, funny, accepting, and worst of all, straight. A fact that is unfortunately not going to stand in the way of Charlie’s ever growing feelings.

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
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
“I don’t think I really have an eating disorder, if I’m honest. I haven’t really had the uhm, you know, the thoughts that people get?” The need to control everything. Nick’s never had that urge.
“Then why are you here?”
“Because my rugby coach said it might be good for me?”
Dr. Walker hums, “But you don’t think you have an eating disorder?”
“Not… really, no. My boyfriend has anorexia or– had it? He’s in recovery now but…”
“That must have been difficult for you,” she says, breezing over the fact that Nick said boyfriend.
“It was,” he admits, “But we made it out the other side in one piece and he’s doing a lot better now. I’ve seen up close what disordered eating behaviors look like and how the thought patterns manifest, I guess.”
Her expression softens, “Anorexia can look different from person to person.”
Nick doesn’t know what to say to that. He just knows his body weight is too high to get diagnosed with it.
or
Nick develops a severe ED his second year at uni and there isn't enough googling in the world that will fix him.

Summary
“But you got me thinking last night,” says Nick. “I couldn’t stand that you thought I just wanted to throw you a—a—”
“Pity fuck?” Charlie smirks over his tea.
Nick shakes his head and digs into his own pastry. “Yes, that. You’ve been waiting all these years to meet someone who makes you feel safe and loved. And God, Charlie, you’re my best friend. Of course I want you to have that experience for your first time. So many people’s first times are utter shit. Mine was utter shit. I’d be an awful friend if I didn’t want you to have the best possible experience.”
Charlie has no idea where he’s going with this.
“So,” Nick says, a little nervous, “if you don’t want the first experience to be with me, then as your best friend, I feel it is my duty to help you find the person it will be with. If you want.”

Summary
“They're streets in the same city, and sometimes they intersect. I think I'm already planted at that intersection. I'm already under its streetlights.” - Billy-Ray Belcourt
Charlie Spring is at his wits' end. After a decade of keeping his panic attacks at bay, they're suddenly back with a vengeance, threatening to derail the life he's meant to be planning with his fiancé Ben. The only glimmer of hope is his therapist's suggestion that he might have success with a service dog.
Nick Nelson is back at square one. He's six months out of a failed long-term relationship, living at home again, and completely directionless. He loves working at his family's service dog agency, Second Chance, but he needs more than that to keep him afloat.
Or: Nick and Charlie never sat together in form. They never dated. They both moved through life separately, suceeding and failing in small measures, until a chance meeting in their late twenties brought them back into each others' orbit.
