    Summary

    “It doesn’t have to be her. Do you fancy anyone else here? You can tell us, we’ll help you!” the first voice insisted.

    “No, mate. No one has caught my eye, I don’t fancy anyone here. I’m not interested in anybody. I’m just here for some drinks and fun, that’s it,” Nick replied.

    Oh fuck. Charlie felt bile rise in his throat as disappointment washed over him in a crushing force, tightening his chest.

    So that was it. It was too good to be true, Charlie thought. Nick only talked to him because he felt pity for him. Or he wanted to play with his feelings. He wasn’t actually interested.

    “Yes, Nick, I heard you,” Charlie laughed hollowly, “Don’t you think you didn’t hurt me. I really thought you’d liked me back and I felt so stupid, I-”

    “Charlie!” Nick interrupted him, sounding so urgent and desperate, Charlie immediately stopped talking. He glared at him but motioned for him to continue with a jerk of his chin.

    “Charlie, you got it all wrong, fuck, you have no idea!”

    Summary

    “Looks like Tao’s becoming more of a romantic than you.”

    “No,” Nick said, looking appalled. “No. I refuse to accept that.”

    “He does have better pet-name game,” Isaac observed. “...Thus far.”

    They let those words sink in.

    “You know what that means, Charlie?” Nick said slowly.

    Charlie knew full well what it meant. “We already have pet names, though,” he pointed out. “Dork and idiot.”

    “Yeah, but they’re not, like, romantic, are they?”

    Nick and Charlie decide to experiment with pet names. Things get a little out of hand...

    Summary

    "Let's see, where did I put you on the seating plan? Ah yes, you're over there, next to Andrew Emmett. He's in Year 7."

    After his secret breakup with Ben, Charlie was left to brokenly stumble through the rest of his Year 10 alone, without cause for any hope of further romance in his teens. Just as he approaches the end of the school year a chance encounter with a boy from his form sets off a life-altering week.

    (A cosy dual-POV tale with only good things for Nick and Charlie; they deserve it).

    ———

    “This was absolutely wonderful from start to finish“

    “Thank you thank you thank you for writing this gorgeous story into existence!”

    “Such a great story and beautifully told”

    “This is one of those stories you wish would never end”

    Summary

    What if the goodest girl, Nellie Nelson, was the entire reason Charlie and Nick ever met? What if she is the reason they fell in love?

    That's it, that's the tweet.
