    Summary

    Nick and Charlie have successfully started their family after Nick has given birth to a little girl named Amelia. They're happier than they've ever been, but Charlie's been quite sick recently. A visit to the doctor showed that Charlie is finally pregnant, so he made an appointment with his OB/GYN - who found that he was actually pregnant with twins.

    This is meant to be read after Part 1 - "Having Hope", but it is not totally necessary. Enjoy!

    Summary

    “You’re Nick and Charlie, so you’re gonna be fine.”

    Spoiler alert: - we weren’t fine. Not even close.

    Nick and I had believed we could make a long-distance relationship work. We loved each other, we were positive, and we were strong. But the distance between Truham and Leeds could have been a million miles; the journey lasted hours, train tickets took all our money, and I… well, I turned into a bitch. There’s no other word for it.

    I pushed and pushed until Nick did something terrible. Something that broke us apart. Something that sent me spinning back into a relationship with a man who’d already abused me as a boy. The scars from that terrible time – mental, physical – followed me over the following six years.

    And that’s when Nick found me again. Still playing with Queer Intentions. Directionless, miserable, still deeply scarred by the past.

    But here’s the thing… we live in the same city now. The past is another country, so they say. Can we move past what happened?

    Do I even want that?

    Can we rekindle what we had before… or does it risk sending me into another self-destructive spiral?

    Summary

    Eight years after Evercove fell to a coup, its royal children are finally free.

    Princess Victoria arrives in Glenhaven ready to bury her grief beneath court lessons and war councils. Prince Oliver arrives wide-eyed and eager, having been born in a dungeon and never seen the world beyond stone walls. Prince Charles arrives silent, starving, and hollowed out by captivity, unable to leave the room he has been given.

    Their mother was executed years ago. Their father, King Julio, is still trapped beneath the palace after choosing to save his children instead of himself. And the man who stole their kingdom still calls himself Grand Monarch.

    For Prince Nicholas Nelson of Glenhaven, Charlie's return is both a miracle and a wound reopened. Before the coup, they were inseparable. Now Charlie flinches from kindness, mistrusts closed doors, and carries the shadow of Ben Hope, the Grand Monarch's son, in every silence.

    As Queen Serina prepares Victoria to reclaim Evercove's throne and Glenhaven's court turns against its own unfit heir, Nick must prove himself worthy of a crown while learning that love is not the same as rescue.

    Charlie survived the dungeon. Now he has to learn how to live outside it.

    Summary

    Thirty two-year-old Charlie Spring has just lost his mother. Their relationship was messy, but the grief still hits him and his siblings hard. Their father takes it worst of all and moves to Spain to be near family, leaving the house to Charlie.

    Fresh out of a toxic relationship, Charlie refuses to move back into the childhood home that shaped so many of his issues. Instead, he decides to rent it out.

    Nick Nelson, newly divorced and raising his five-year-old son Julian alone, returns to his hometown for support and takes a teaching job at his old primary school. He rents a house for himself and Julian—only to discover his new landlord is Charlie, the boy he once secretly crushed on.

    Now Charlie has to decide if he can forgive Nick for ghosting him years ago, and Nick must finally explain what really happened.

    And meanwhile…who is Julian talking to in his room when no one else is there?

     

    TL;DR:
    Charlie rents out his late mother’s house, only to lease it to Nick, the childhood crush who once ghosted him. As they navigate their unresolved past, Nick’s young son begins talking to someone unseen.

    Summary

    If I could pick one thing to be pissed off with my mother about, it would be that she was right.
    Not the years of hoarding cans and slowly isolating ourselves in some wretched stone bunker.
    No, it’s the fact that she had to go and be right about the world ending.

    Nick and Charlie meet after the apocalypse.

    Summary

    Nick Nelson flies to Almeria for a planned family holiday meet up, only to find out that his dad and brother are a few days delayed. Thankfully, at Casa Primavera, they (mostly) give a warm welcome and, despite holidaying solo, Nick finds himself somewhat enamoured by it all; with Spain, with the hotel, and, most of all, with one staff member in particular.

    It’s just a shame that summer flings don’t last forever…

    Summary

    Nick and Charlie have been married for three years and have decided they wanted to start a family. Charlie has tried to fall pregnant for over a year, and despite the doctors saying there's nothing wrong, it isn't happening. After a particularly bad reaction to a co-workers pregnancy, Charlie decides to stop actively trying and just see what happens. Fast forward to Charlie's next appointment where Nick throws up in the trash can. Surprise?

    This is an AU where mpreg is totally normal - no omegaverse (though there's nothing wrong with that!). This idea has been rolling around in my brain for almost a year and if I keep rewriting it I'll never post it, so here it is.

    Summary

    A deep-dive novelization, alternating between the unique, distinct internal perspectives of Nick Nelson and Charlie Spring. The story strips away the external noise of peer expectations and assumptions, end of term exams, upcoming university decisions, and family pressures to explore the raw emotional and physical reality of their relationship.

    As Charlie continues his journey of mental health recovery, both boys navigate the shifting tides of teenage hormone surges, limited privacy, and deep romantic yearning. By communicating openly and shedding the performative scripts handed to them by the world, Nick and Charlie redefine what intimacy means to them, turning their shared desire into a safe, sacred space built entirely on their own terms.

    Summary

    So you know how Nick said “I wish I'd met you when I was younger”? It got me thinking: What if they did meet but were simply too young to remember? So that’s when this little idea was born of a fluffy meet-cute of little Nick, Charlie, and puppy Nellie in the park.

    Summary

    A Summary:
    Our beloved Heartstopper protagonists, Nick & Charlie, mostly true to the original characters, but their story with an AU first meeting. This is a happy, fluffy love story with some necessary angst for plot, but no trauma or deaths are expected, and a happy ending is guaranteed!

    A Sample:
    "I know what an amazing person you are, Nick. Truly amazing. You’re so kind and generous, and you’re a wonderful friend, and I’ll be here for you whenever you need me. I don’t want to lose touch again, if that’s something you’d want, too.”

    They looked at each other for a moment until Nick smiled and replied, “Of course, Charlie. Of course, I want to stay in touch. We just found each other again and I don’t plan on letting your friendship go ever again! That’s it, you’re stuck with me.”

    “Oh noooo, how terrible. How will I ever cope with having one of my favourite people in my life forever?” Charlie replied cheekily.

    * Author's note: This fic was on hiatus from 3.24.2024 - 2.16.2026 and is currently an active WIP again!

    Summary

    Head Boy Charlie Spring is finishing Year 13. He has always followed the rules. Nick Nelson has spent his first year at Leeds trying very hard to be good.

    They’ve become surprisingly good at long distance. Patient. Careful. Sensible. The problem is… they miss each other.

    And distance has a way of making small things louder. Suggestive selfies. Late-night texts. Wanting each other in ways that are getting harder to ignore.

    They’ve been good for a long time... Summer might finally test how good they really are.

    ---

    A continuation of Part 1: By the Book about longing, jealousy, and the moment restraint starts wearing thin.

    Can be read alone, but it hits harder if you were there the first time they stood on opposite sides of an assembly hall.

    Or

    Rugby captain Nick Nelson and Head Boy Charlie Spring have always been very good at following rules.

    Each other, however, is becoming a problem.
