    Summary

    16 year's after Heartstopper began, but in a universe where Nick and Charlie had not yet met. Charlie still went to Truham Grammar School, but Nick did not, neither did Charlie's other love interest/bully Ben Hope. Charlie was never actually outed at school either, but still bullied.

    Charlie is starting his new job as music teacher, he is nervous as this is his first teaching job. Who is that crazy man running out on the frosty school field so early in the morning, in shorts?

    Nick can't believe it's happening to him again, what is it with music teachers? But this time feels different.

    Sparks fly instantly between the PE teacher and new music teacher. It's not long before Mr. Spring and Mr. Nelson are falling hard for each other, but they both have their own demons from their past and new challenges to overcome together.

    *Trigger warnings will be added for mentions of abusive relationships (not explored with detail), mental health, violence (there is very little) and homophobia/biphobia*
    *This fic includes explicit sex scenes (all loving and consensual)*
