    Summary

    This is how it happens.

    Paul, standing in front of him, hand in hand with Leena. That same pitiful look in his eyes as he takes Henry in and shoos his girlfriend away as if he’s being nice. Him apologizing for coming around when everything is “so fresh, I know, I’m sorry,” and touching his arm, ensuring him that “you’ll find someone eventually, I promise.”

    It’s that word that grates him. Eventually. The loaded meaning behind it. The implication that Henry might find someone that loves him but it will take time.

    Maybe that’s why he blurts it out, without thinking. The words that’ll surely come back to bite him. The words he cannot for the life of him take back, ever.

    “Actually, I already have someone.”

    Alex and Henry hate each other, but in a moment of panic, Henry tells his ex he's been dating Alex to get him off his back. It works a little too well.

    Summary

    Inspired by Date Me, Bryson Keller.

    Everyone knows about the bet. Each week, Nick Nelson, the Rugby King of Truham Grammar, must date someone new — the first person to ask him out on Monday morning. Until a boy asks him out, and everything changes.

    Charlie Spring is shocked when Nick agrees to secretly date him. But as the week goes by, Charlie discovers there's more to Nick than he'd previously realized, and the fake dating starts to feel an awful lot like real dating. As he gets in deeper and deeper, can Charlie deal with the fact that this relationship will end after one week? After all, Nick is popular, handsome and straight. Right?

    Summary

    Charlie Spring endures constant and horrific bullying during Year 9 after being outed as gay. He tries to ignore it. Tries to not let it get to him. Tries to ignore all the sneers and harsh words thrown at him day in and day out. But it hurts. It gets to him. He slowly becomes more and more a shell of himself, becomes more and more angry, until one day he just snaps. He gets in an all out brawl with the guys who just won't leave him alone and winds up hitting his breaking point, having a complete mental breakdown. Everything changes that day. He's angry, pissed off, and he can't hold it in anymore. He builds a wall of defense around himself made out of violence and anger, shoving all his other emotions and personality down in order to protect himself.

    Until Nick Nelson comes along and completely shatters everything he thought he knew, and forces him to start feeling again.

    Nick Nelson is a lobsterman on his brother David’s boat. He spends all of his time on the water, or in bed with a new tourist every week. Then he meets Charlie Spring.

    OF NOTE: I had an idea for a new ending. The "Ambiguous Ending" tag was removed and the "Angst with a Happy Ending" tag was added.

    Summary

    Buzz is building around the queer extravaganza that’s planned for this season’s run with a bisexual Bachelor - England’s own star pro-rugby player Nicholas Nelson. But what are the showmakers going to do for twelve episodes if their Bachelor and one of the newcomer contestants have fallen in love at first sight?

    ‘Would you … kiss someone, in front of the cameras?’ Charlie asks, his heart hammering louder than the music in his ears. He moves his body again, feet squeaking closer to Nick’s, his finger where it lies along Nick’s finger on the floor suddenly pressing. He hitches in a breath as he feels Nick’s pinky finger hook onto his.

    Nick looks at him, his head drifting slightly closer, then he takes a quick breath and looks away. ‘I don’t know … maybe?’ he says.

    Summary

    Nick is now 25. Him and Charlie didn’t go to school together and never met. Nick is freshly out of a relationship with a woman named Josephine (Jo for short) that ended badly after he realized he was bisexual and came out to her. Nick has accepted that he’s bisexual, but he has yet to get into a relationship with a guy. He’s starting to feel ready to explore that part of his identity. Despite knowing this, he’s not exactly looking to meet anyone yet, as he’s still healing from his past relationship ending. Rather than going out, or getting on dating apps, he’s spending his time working on himself. Then, one night he gets an accidental text from the one and only Charlie Spring that changes his life forever.

    Summary

    “See? I have no fucking filter. That’s exactly what got me into this situation. I guess the whole thing with wanting my mom to know I’m not straight got mixed up with all the frustration." Alex knows he's spiraling, panic rising the more he thinks of the snowballing effect of his lie, of the consequences that will inevitably come to bite him in the ass, but he has no idea how to stop it. "And now I have to come clean and tell her I don’t actually have a boyfriend and also explain why I lied, and if they didn’t think I was a complete mess before, this is gonna confirm it for sure.”

    Henry takes hold of both his hands, fingertips stroking over his pulse points soothingly. “Alex, breathe.” He waits until Alex manages a slow, slightly shaky breath, then opens his mouth and throws him a fucking curveball. “What if you didn’t come clean?”

    ***

    Alex is an expert at making messes, but this time he dug himself into a hole he doesn't know how to get out of, and now his family is expecting him to bring home a boyfriend that - small problem - doesn't exist. Luckily for him, Henry is willing to take the role.

    “What if we go together? To all these weddings. Be each other's dates” Nick suggested.
    Charlie tilted his head, thinking about the proposition.
    “You hate the idea” Nick deadpanned.

    Summary

    Nick and Charlie meet for the first time at a dog park. Charlie saves a dog from an abusive dickhead and Nick falls a little bit in love. Unfortunately, there are a couple problems with Nick's budding crush. First, it's in the middle of the pandemic, and casually visiting strangers is not exactly a responsible thing to do. Second, Nick is famous. Really famous. Like, A-list actor famous. And between the chaos at the dog park and the whole wearing-a-mask thing, it's possible that Charlie didn't pick up on that minor detail. Shenanigans ensue.

    The original story includes chapters 1-8, completed January 4, 2023. Chapter 9 is a bonus scene.

    Summary

    This could’ve been the best thing that ever happened to me, but instead it’s the absolute worst. When I heard that we were going to have vertical form groups at the start of the new term, I never imagined that the universe had a fucked up sense of humour.

    See the thing is, the guy who just sat down next to me with the dark curls and the stormy eyes, his name is Charlie Spring. I’ve had a massive crush on him for the better part of a year… and I’m pretty sure he has no idea who I even am. Or if he does then he probably doesn’t have a good opinion of me. And now not only is he in my form group, but he’s been assigned to sit right next to me.

    This could’ve been a great way for us to finally actually meet; I wouldn’t have to think up some elaborate reason to get to talk to him, I could just strike up casual conversations and we could get to know each other. Then when I finally got the courage to confess, I wouldn’t be some random stranger.

    It could’ve been the best thing… except…

    Summary

    He’s been following the account @nellie.wiggles on Tiktok for about three months, and honestly, he’s slightly obsessed with it.

    In the beginning, it truly was about the dog. He swears.

    The first time he came across the account, it was of a video of Nellie’s famous wiggles, a compilation of the beautiful border collie in many different locations, standing between someone’s legs and wiggling, stamping, and jumping. Not only had the trick been enough to make Charlie smile, but the little song her owner sang with the wiggles made his heart melt in his chest.

    AKA The one where Nellie is popular on social media, and Charlie is a little bit in love with her human.

    Summary

    Five times that Charlie and Nick's teachers secretly meddled, and the one time they were invited to.

    OR

    Each time I rewatch or reread this series I am irrationally bothered by the fact that NONE of the teachers seemed to notice or care about the bullying Charlie endured. For my own mental health, I created a little universe where at least some of them gave a damn and even had fun doing so!
