    Summary

    Two hot young men in their twenties meet in the French countryside, indulging in a holiday romance of a lifetime, with nothing to lose!

    But could this change their lives forever?

    Charlie Spring is at an impasse in life; he is four years out of college, in a publishing job that was going well... until they laid off half the staff, including him. Things keep getting worse until an opportunity presents itself, and he takes a chance of a lifetime.
    Landing in Toulouse a few days later, he makes his way to a small medieval town and begins to set up a dream life for himself.
    -
    Nick Nelson's world is shaken when he suffers an injury in pro rugby, which sees him laid up for months. He's fed up and frustrated at the fact that he can't find anything else in his life that's worthwhile once rugby is out of the equation.
    Following his grandmother's death a couple of years previously, he inherited her beautiful house in a small medieval town outside Toulouse. It needs a little bit of love and attention. He packs his bags and goes off to discover a side of himself he never knew existed.

    Summary

    After losing his husband four years ago, Charlie Spring has worked hard to build a comfortable new life for himself: two adorable dogs, a cozy cabin in his hometown, and a rewarding job archiving the works of local gay poet Finn Bryson. But when a film company decides to adapt Bryson's life into a movie, Charlie is hired to help prepare the lead actor. Nick Nelson is a stunningly handsome, wildly popular film star—but as far as Charlie can tell, he's also a world-class snob.

    AU with fluff, flirting, karaoke, hayrides, Taco Bell, and a lot of bad disguises.
    Also some angst! But always a happy ending.

    **Complete at Chapter 36, anything beyond is a deleted scene**

    Target: Nick Nelson.
    Deadline: Summer.
    Three months to corrupt the school’s most incorruptible soul, or face an endless stream of subtitled art house films that Tao forces us to over analyse until three in the morning.
    Should be easy.

    Or

    Nick Nelson, Truham's most popular rugby lad, is also a member of the school's chastity club. Charlie is convinced he can change that.

    Summary

    Charlie Spring finally settles on a university away from home, away from his past in Kent, hoping for a fresh start. And, to be honest, hoping for a man. His teenage years were filled with hardly a drop of romance, and let's be honest, there's only so much a teenage gay boy can bottle up. What he doesn't realize is that he's going to be surrounded by so many different, very attractive men in university, and that could have some consequences.

    Nick Nelson, hoping to get his own fresh start after fizzling out at University of Leeds, heads for a smaller school. Unfortunately, his brother's reputation follows him around like a bad case of the clap, attracting requests from various organizations and fraternities to join. What Nick doesn't realize is that his pathway is about to collide with several others during his sophomore year, revealing feelings he has denied and kept hidden for the past decade.

    We all know that Nick and Charlie are destined to be together, in any universe, but what will it take in this one?

    Summary

    Heartstopper Soulmate AU where any mark you make on your skin shows up on your soulmate's. A long time ago everyone had a soulmate throughout time that changed and at present they are so rare that most people think they are legends and made up fairytales. Nick certainly never believed in soulmates but he also has no explanation for the random words and marks that appear on his skin from time to time. He doesn't worry though, because they're harmless, so there's no use thinking about them. The story follows Nick as he figures out what a soulmate actually is and dealing with all the ups and downs that are associated with it. Along the way he finds guidance from both his mother and surprisingly his art teacher Mr. Ajayi.

    Summary

    Nick Nelson is surviving, not living. A rugby injury ended his sport, a corporate desk job keeps him comfortable, and the closet keeps him safe. He’s done the math: staying closeted is simpler, safer, less messy.

    Then comes the company reorg — and with it, Charlie Spring. Out and proud. Tattooed. Brilliant. Practically the only thing people talk about at work. He’s everything Nick isn’t, and exactly who Nick can’t seem to ignore.

    Now stuck working side by side, their bickering turns into sparks neither of them can control. Numbers don’t lie, but feelings? That’s an entirely different equation.

     

    Enemies to lovers. Office drama. Sarcasm, banter, slow burn tension… and a guaranteed happy ending.

    Summary

    A doctor steps in and blocks his way. “Sir, you can’t go in there!”

    “No, no, no,” says Charlie, “you don’t understand—”

    “Are you family?”

    “No, but—”

    “Family only,” he informs him sternly, disappearing behind the glass door. The doctor joins the throng of medical personnel surrounding the man’s body, and when they wheel the gurney out of sight, Charlie staggers back from the glass wall like he’s been punched.

    Shock and helplessness coalesce within him. Inexplicably, he finds himself laughing, his trembling fingers lifting to his lips to contain the mirthless giggles that spill forth. “Oh, God,” he whispers. “I was going to marry that man.”

    The nurse at the desk drops her jaw. “Oh, luv.”
