Summary
"Give it to me straight, doc." Neil yanks the collar of his sweater down, wincing at the frigid air against his neck, "How bad is—"
Charlie cuts him off, practically yelling in the abandoned shower room, "Holy shit! Neil— I mean… Oh my god?!" He leans in, eyes nearly bulging out of his skull like a cartoon character. "Did you get mauled by a bear on the way back?"
"You're being dramatic; it can't be that bad." Neil shoves past him, marching up to the mirror, gently tugging his collar back down.
Staring back at him through the fogged-up mirror was a gash on the side of his neck, crusted over slightly from the dried blood; a hissing reminder of the past hour or two.
"Okay, I concede, geez, maybe it is that bad."
or
5 times Neil Perry cracks the news to his friends that he might be a vampire, and 1 time maybe, just maybe, he doesn't have to be alone.

TRIGGER WARNING FOR LITERALLY ANYTHING YOU CAN THINK TO BE WARNED FOR. I REALLY MEAN IT. -author

Cameron was always good with school work, always taking extra notes that weren't necessary just to fully understand the subject. His grades were perfect, his participation was on point, and he was always on time.
That was until the class ended and the teacher asked him to come to his desk.

Summary
Neil’s trying to find a place to rehearse for the play when he hears the sound. A low groaning. It's almost unnoticeable if one were with friends, but alone the noise can't be ignored. It puts him off.
What kind of thing could make a noise like that?

Summary
A gray jacket, the same as his own —the same as everybody's, it's a school uniform for a reason— thrown over the back of his desk chair. He must have assumed it was his own when he sat down, but taking it and bringing it up to his face he realizes it's not.
Someone must have left it there, that's the only thing that makes sense. Plenty of people walk in and out of their dorm like it's the common room. It's not weird. Maybe they'll come back for it.
That's what he'd thought, even when he'd brought the fabric up to his face again, inhaling it's scent like something had taken over his body and made him do it. There was something so comforting about it.
--
or: Cameron finds comfort in a scent, and then in a person.Series

Summary
After a rough first term at Welton, Todd and the Dead Poets find a mysterious rugged theatre scene in a sunlit meadow in the midst of the forest. As ambition and passion strikes, the scene is turned into a showcase of relit dreams. But attempting to hide the scene from the strict school is hard, and unraveling the secrets behind the out of place scene is even harder. Unresolved tension from last year gnaws on their heels — will they stick together as the puzzle is put together, or will they go back to strangers?

Summary
“Dare.” Charlie exclaimed, a grin spreading across his face.
“I dare you to spend seven minutes in heaven together with…” Neil thought for a second, eyes scanning around the room before they landed on his target. A smile grew on his face, “Cameron.”
Charlie blinked. There was no way he had just heard Neil correctly. “Cameron?” He questioned, his brows furrowing together in confusion.
“Me?” Cameron had said at the same time. He had his own expression of shock on his face, brows furrowed together and lips slightly parted.
or
The poets are playing a game of truth or dare and Charlie and Cameron are dared to spend 7 minutes in heaven together. Charlie realizes something.

“Whatcha doing?” He raised an eyebrow. Cameron exhaled slowly, “Don’t you have a party to be at? Or some chick to call?”“Woah, what do you take me for Richard? Some kind of slag?” Charlie put a hand on his heart to feign mock hurt. Cameron didn’t even look up from his maths. “Mhm.”

Title - Promise by Laufey
Cameron and Charlie before Todd arrived, then after Charlie was expelled :(
***
Cameron had a few choice words that he threw at Charlie after being unwilling manhandled, and he sat up again. With a deep sigh, Charlie leant over Cameron and put a hand on his chest, “Go to sleep.” He pushed Cameron’s chest down and held him there until Cameron gave up fighting him.

Summary
I asked people to send me fic requests on Tumblr (my Tumblr is @bethany4565) and this was one of the requested fic ideas. The request wasn't too specific so I hope this is sort of what you had in mind:)
All of the poets had their little duos in their group, except for one. Neil and Todd were inseparable, Meeks and Pitts were forever a dynamic duo, Charlie and Knox were always together and Cameron always seemed to be left on his one. Always.
Or,
Cameron is upset because he's always left out of things and the poets comfort him and make sure he knows how much they appreciate him.

Summary
Todd?
He gave the boy a questioning look, why did he come? To rub it in? To yell at him?
Todd looked back shyly, he looked tired. Much tired then he should've been, even with the meeting the others had decided to throw in honor of the play.
“It's beautiful, isnt it.” Todd started quietly, looking back out onto the lake.
Cameron gave him a dumb look, more out of shock hed even say anything to him

cameron is spiralling, todd is too
