    Summary

    Nick and Charlie have found themselves in an impossible situation - one they never expected to end up in.

    Through an online platform, they become fast friends - commiserating over parenthood, the challenges of dealing with the change of their relationships with their spouses and the lack of intimacy.

    Sharing things with a stranger online seems freeing at first. There's no judgement, no guilt, only support and understanding.

    That's until they start walking along a slippery slope and things that started off so innocently become something else entirely.

    Summary

    Charlie lingers in the locker room long after all the other boys have left, almost as if he doesn’t want any of them to see where he’s going, and that more than anything convinces Nick that he’s got to do something to find out what’s wrong. So when Nick leaves the locker room, he turns a corner and then hovers there, waiting to see which direction Charlie goes.

    He’s not sure what he’s expecting—maybe that Charlie’s sneaking off to see Ben again? But Charlie doesn’t meet up with Ben. He doesn’t meet up with anyone. Instead, he ducks into a broom cupboard and emerges five minutes later in pajamas with a rucksack slung over his shoulders and what looks like a sleeping bag tucked under his arm.

    Nick comes out from around the corner. “Charlie? What are you doing?”

    xx

    A closeted Charlie comes out to his parents after Ben assaults him. When his mum kicks him out of the house, Nick and Sarah take him in instead.

    Summary

    “Nick is getting paid to pretend to be in love with Charlie, but his hardest job is to convince everyone else that he isn’t.”

    Or,
    Nick and Charlie played love interests for years in a blockbuster trilogy. Nick was head over heels with his co-star, but the producers forbid him to ask Charlie out in case they broke up, which would endanger the franchise. What happens a year later, when Nick is once again asked to play Charlie's love interest in the second season of his brand new show?
