    Summary

    Charlie looked shyly around the circle of other patients waiting for the therapist. He felt his jaw slacken as his eyes focused on the startled face of the man seated directly across from him.

    A man he recognised.

    Nick Nelson.

    At least, he was pretty sure that was Nick Nelson staring back at him. He looked a little worse for wear, but Charlie supposed he wouldn’t be here if that wasn’t the case.

     

    or

    Adult Nick and Charlie meet in inpatient. A story about hope, and the beauty that lies just on the other side of pain.

    Summary

    Finding something — or someone — else to blame has become second nature to Charlie at this point, and he’s very proud of it, thank you very much. Society, Harry Greene, his secondary school teachers who didn’t care about bullying as long as he got good marks, his university lecturers with their classist view of literature, the BBC, gender roles, Freud, his mother, the U.S., London public transport on rainy days (every day), The Sun, the royal family and, best of all, Nick’s heterosexuality.

    But no matter how much he thinks about it, he can't quite figure out why Donald Trump in the fucking White House or the Tories in Parliament would want to conspire against him — aside from homophobia, obviously.

    So, when it comes down to it, the only person Charlie can blame for his current situation is himself, his stupidity, and nothing else.

    or, Nick visits Charlie after many months apart. Nine days and seven moments to reconnect and uncover more about each other. A domestic friends-to-lovers starring Nick with a beard and Charlie trying (and failing) to keep it together.

    Summary

    When Charlie Spring is eleven-years-old he watches his neighbour and best friend drive away as his family moves to Scotland, never to be seen again. Until, that is, Charlie is twenty-seven and Nick Nelson answers an advert for a new flatmate…

    or, as the tweet that inspired this said;

    Childhood friends to estranged acquaintances to roommates to friends to lovers.

     

    A story of second chances and fate, if you believe in that sort of thing.

    Summary

    Nick Nelson is fed up. With some encouragement from his beloved mum, he decides to head to Cornwall for the summer so he can reset and hopefully even cheer himself the fuck up. There, he meets Charlie Spring; sarcastic and self-assured and a little bit lost himself. It’s amazing what six weeks, near-constant rain and a little bit of opening up can do for you.

    or

    A love letter to Cornwall, to cosiness, and to love. Hopefully.
