    Summary

    Dan wakes up and freezes. There's an arm around his waist—more importantly, there's a body pressed against his back, and Dan is suddenly extremely aware of the fact that they're both naked. His head is pounding, too. When he opens his eyes, he doesn't recognise the room he's in. It's definitely not his room, so that begs the question: where the fuck is he?

    Summary

    ------<3------

    “10:48, yeah?” Phil asks, but he’s not looking at Dan through the pixelated screen, rather at the tick-tick-ticking clock on his lime green wall.

    “Yeah.” Dan has checked his ticket so much that the orange corners have started to turn peach and wrinkle.

    “What platform?” Phil knows what platform. He’s already looked it up on the CrossCountry website.

    “Why?” Dan knows Phil is asking so that he can meet him there.

    ------<3------

    It’s a rainy Sunday in October 2009, and an absurdly normal one at that. Nothing remarkable. Yet, it’s the day before the rest of their lives.

    Based on the song The Day Before You Came by Pulp (a cover of ABBA).

    Summary

    Dan agrees to go with Phil to a destination wedding in Majorca. It’s supposed to be a week of sunshine, small talk, and surviving Phil’s extended family. Instead, Phil accidentally tells everyone they’re dating... Now they have to pretend it’s true.

    (Or: fake dating, one bed, a week in Majorca, and one very real problem.)

    Summary

    Charlie surprises Nick at one of his rugby matches during his first semester at Leeds

    ———

    When the game finally ends (with a Leeds victory!), I select one of the best photos I took of him today, then with shaking hands, I type out two sentences.

    You look fit as fuck in that jersey. Wanna make out?

    I hit send, then wait. I’m literally trembling from head to toe, beaming like an idiot.

    I watch him and his teammates happily chatting and patting each other on the back. They make their way over to the sideline where they slowly start grabbing their phones and water bottles.

    I watch Nick like a hawk, almost vibrating out of my skin at this point. I think I might actually die of anticipation.

    He grabs his phone and water bottle, taking a long swig and then making some comment to the guy on his left, who laughs and claps him on the back. He smiles, then grabs his phone and starts walking toward the changing rooms, in the opposite direction from where I’m sitting. SERIOUSLY, Nick?! Without even looking at it?! I start to worry that he’s truly not even going to check it when I see him stop dead in his tracks.

    Summary

    October, 2009: Dan is meeting Phil for the first time tomorrow. He just has to get through this night.

    ///

    “The precious desire burning deep in Dan's gut is intoxicating and he should be so much more scared than he is. He’s still plenty terrified, but maybe just this once he can allow his heart to want this. He’ll pick up the shattered pieces later.”

    ///

    formidable: (adj.) causing you to have fear or respect for something or someone because that thing or person is large, powerful, or difficult

    Summary

    Nick is planning to spend his second year at University of Leeds the same way he spent the first one: playing rugby, going out, and sleeping with a different woman every week. But after a chance encounter on his first day back, suddenly the only plans he's interested in are the ones that involve his new friend, Charlie Spring.

    Summary

    Charlie Spring is not going to get back with Nick Nelson.

    He isn’t.

    Just because he has his instagram dms open, currently sending reels back and forth, grinning ear to ear, does not mean anything is happening between them.

    Exes can be friends, it’s not a foreign concept.

    That doesn’t mean feelings are still involved.

    Right?

    or, what if nick and charlie had broken up during uni, then reconnected two years later, after both having to move back to truham under unforeseen circumstances?

    Summary

    “What was Nick’s last name?” Oliver asks.

    Charlie nearly chokes on a sip of his drink. “Sorry, what?”

    “Nick. Your Nick. What was his last name?”

    “Nelson. Why?”

    “My form teacher’s name is Mr. Nelson. I think he’s new this year.”

    For a moment, Charlie’s brain halts to a complete stop. He hasn’t talked to Nick Nelson in three years. Hasn’t thought about him in almost as long. It can't be the same Nelson. But what if it is?

    OR

    Nick and Charlie broke up at the start of Charlie's first year of uni. Unplanned circumstances brought Nick back home to Truham, where he's starting his first teaching job at his old school. When he gets his class lists, Nick is surprised to see Oliver Spring's name in his form group. As if the first year of teaching isn't stressful enough! Meanwhile, Charlie is shocked to hear that Nick is back in town and teaching his younger brother. But what's gone is gone. Charlie can't have Nick back in his life, even as a friend. Especially not when Charlie's too terrified to step even one foot outside of his flat. He can't need Nick Nelson again. But what if Nick needs him?

    Summary

    “Yeah, so, I’m gay. That’s not going to be a problem, is it?” He asks, though there’s only one answer to the question that doesn’t end with Charlie storming out and demanding the housing office give him a new roommate.

    “Oh god, no. No, that’s not—I’m sorry—I promise it’s not,” Nick races to say, clearly flustered. “I’m not homophobic, I promise. I’m sorry I made you think that. I’m an ally,” he says, holding his fist up, as if in solidarity.

    or: After a last minute roommate change, Charlie Spring finds himself sharing a dorm with the hottest man he’s ever seen. Nick Nelson is kind, lovely, funny, accepting, and worst of all, straight. A fact that is unfortunately not going to stand in the way of Charlie’s ever growing feelings.

    Summary

    “Don’t smoke much, Rugby King?” Charlie was speaking to him. Charlie was teasing him, but he was speaking to him.

    “I– uh, I guess I–” Nick struggled to put together a sentence before landing on, “I guess not.”

    Charlie let out a sharp exhale through his nose, still laughing at Nick. He put the joint he was working on down to a plate on his lap and leaned back in his chair. He tilted his chin up slightly as he looked Nick up and down with a sly smirk across his face. At that moment, Nick would not have been able to tell you his own last name

    Summary

    It was strange, really. Charlie hadn’t known Nick for long, and yet, whenever he saw Nick come into the library he felt drawn to him. He remembered the first time that he noticed Nick in the library, situated on what would become his regular couch. At first, Charlie didn’t think much of it, obviously students would make use of the library as a quiet study space, and Nick was no exception. But somewhere along the way, Charlie found himself going out of his way to sneak looks more often than not.

    Charlie couldn’t help but notice him.

    The way that his fringe would flop into his eyes as he scribbled away at his notes, or how his nose would scrunch up when he was working his way through a difficult passage of text. Or how the corner of his mouth would tilt up in a grin when he started greeting Charlie on his way in. Maybe he imagined it, but it seemed like every time Charlie responded with his own grin and quiet, “hi,” that Nick’s eyes would brighten.

    Summary

    “But you got me thinking last night,” says Nick. “I couldn’t stand that you thought I just wanted to throw you a—a—”

    “Pity fuck?” Charlie smirks over his tea.

    Nick shakes his head and digs into his own pastry. “Yes, that. You’ve been waiting all these years to meet someone who makes you feel safe and loved. And God, Charlie, you’re my best friend. Of course I want you to have that experience for your first time. So many people’s first times are utter shit. Mine was utter shit. I’d be an awful friend if I didn’t want you to have the best possible experience.”

    Charlie has no idea where he’s going with this.

    “So,” Nick says, a little nervous, “if you don’t want the first experience to be with me, then as your best friend, I feel it is my duty to help you find the person it will be with. If you want.”
