and I'll be yours for the weekend ('tis the damn season)
nabrina • holiday fake-dating • [chapters 1/3]
Sabrina Spellman is excited for her annual winter trip with the fright club, but when she finds out that all of them will be bringing someone, she tells a little white lie and now she needs to find a boyfriend for the occasion. Nick Scratch is in town to take care of some family business and the very last thing he expects to find himself in the middle of is her mess, but here he is.
It’s been a long, hard journey and there are a number of lovely people in this fandom. Shout out love to those who’s works you adore, who you’ve gotten to know or would even like to know. Talk about the experiences you’ve had in the fandom and round out an amazing week!
Not gonna lie I do spend most of my time on the twitter side of the nabrina fandom and I appreciate all of them and I love them but I’d like to actually like to thank the tumblr part of the fandom the most. When we got the news that the show would be ending I was crushed cause I was like well everyone will be leaving soon and sure some did but all the people who’s writings and gifs and random posts I enjoy the most stayed and I’m grateful for that because the nabrina fandom would truly be nothing without you guys. Nabrina and caos in general mean a lot to me so I’m happy that even almost one year later you guys are still here.
It’s always been a sort of tradition for me and my friends on twitter to read nabrina fics together as they drop, we’ve spent so many countless nights catching up on fics, discussing what we think will happen next, what we love the most about it and the fact that we can still do that now almost a year later is great and we’re all thankful for the writers who have kept going, your stories mean everything to us and have even made a lot of friendships. So thank you @sarahwyland @thoughtsaboutshows @bunivys @willowaus @unseemingowl @misskath90 @shotgunkitten and any other fic writers, you guys are the best and thank you for continuing writing 💕
And to @thetvmoviefan @sabrinspellman @sabrinas-morningstar @lala-in-the-impala all of you have also been some of my favorite people I’ve encountered in the nabrina and caos fandom in general, thank you for the countless gifs and discussion posts it’s been fun and I’m grateful for you guys as well.
NOW THIS HAS BEEN SUPER SAPPY AND IM SORRY but the nabrina fandom is by far the best fandom I’ve ever been in and every person here or on Twitter or on Instagram really make the fandom the best and I love you guys, forever and ever 💕
How do you envision Sabrina and Nick returning to earth?
Definitely with the help of the aunties and pambrose, I think they’d do whatever it takes to bring both back because there’s no way they’d bring Sabrina back solely when Nick means everything to her. So I envision all four of them working together to bring them back and who knows maybe even the fright club help.
What are your hopes for the future comics?
I’d of course love more into how nabrina come back but I would also love to see more of the witch world and really I’d like to see more of Nick’s friendships wether it be Ambrose, Prudence, or the fright club. And definitely some addressing to Nick’s death cause he’s been through so much already I’d like to see both him AND Sabrina either go to therapy or have someone like a grownup to talk to.
What are some storylines you wish had been expanded on?
Definitely backstories for everyone that wasn’t Sabrina like Nick, Ambrose, the weird sisters, the aunties, Salem and even Blackwood. There’s definitely other plots I wish were more expanded on but backstories would be the main one and I hope we see that in the comics.
1. What is your favorite nabrina moment from part 4?
I don’t know if this is an unpopular opinion but I absolutely love part 4 nabrina even with the ending. Their scenes to me were all so great from the necklace, to “thank you for loving me” to nabrina holding each other after their first time, I really enjoyed it all. But this scene was one of my favs because the song wasn’t Sabrina’s mantra, Nick was. See Ambrose had told Sabrina to focus on something that was “unique to you. Something that is yours and yours alone” and it was Nick. We see her struggling to remember the song but as soon as Nick sings with her she’s able to do it. Nick was the thing that helped her overcome all the illness and darkness in that moment and it makes me go 🥺.
Also this scene was so fun
2. How would you have liked Part 4 to end?
Like everyone else I’d definitely say with them not dead lol it would have been nice if there had been like 10 more minutes added to the finale that brought Sabrina back without Nick having had died yet but I get that they didn’t know the show would get cancelled so Roberto gave us what he could but definitely would have liked to see them alive by the end.
3. If you’ve seen Sabrina crossing over on Riverdale, what did you think of her part?
It was what I was expecting, just a short cameo but I would have liked more context into how she actually came back and where Nick was at and what about Salem? I definitely think Sabrina would never leave Nick behind so I’m sure he’s with her but still would have liked more.
1. What is your favorite nabrina moment from part 3?
I feel like I always sound insane when I say one of my all time favorite nabrina scenes is the break up scene but listen. This scene is honestly the best break up scene I’ve ever scene, the emotion in it, the acting, how heartbreaking it is just make it so good. One thing in it that absolutely gets me every time is how Sabrina literally clings to Nick so he won’t leave her, she’s trying so damn hard to not let him go but we know it won’t work out in her favor. Seeing Nick have to actually pry her hands off of him so she lets go cause she won’t always has me crying and the shot of him dropping her hand is just brilliant. There’s so many good lines from this scene too but I love the “I’ll give it all up for you” because Sabrina is so willing to give up absolutely everything for him just so he can stay by her side and it really shows how much she loved him, how much more their relationship meant that she wanted to give it all up and the weight it had. And if it made the crew tear up as they filmed I’d say it was well done.
What other shows/books/movies/etc would you like to see Nick and Sabrina crossover with?
I would love to see nabrina at Hogwarts, not sure if that counts as a crossover but I’d love to see how different it would be for them, their houses, the friends they’d make, their reactions to the wizarding world. Them having little dates on the Hogwarts grounds by the lake, It’d be cute.
(also I’m not sure if Taylor Swift exists in the caos universe but just saying I think Nick would totally be into her music after Sabrina introduces her to him lol)
there are so many great scenes in part 2 it’s the best and I know right after I’ll post this I’ll be like “oh wait that sce-“ but this one has to definitely be one of my favorites. Nick has never been vulnerable with anyone else before and he’s never had anyone there to comfort him and you can tell by how he looks when Sabrina offers him comfort instead of leaving him, it’s not something he’s used to he doesn’t know how to deal with it.
2. What are some places you think they’d travel to around the world
Europe. I can’t explain it but Europe just seems so them I’d definitely say that but also asia as well.
3. Who else did you love seeing the two interact with or who would you have liked to see them interact with more?
The show definitely gave us a good amount of pambrose/nabrina core four scenes so those were always great, really love their dynamic especially prudence ruffling Sabrina’s feathers when it comes to Nick. Though we did get some scenes I would have absolutely loved more Nick and Ambrose content and how more of their friendship.
I genuinely love all the part one interactions because of how it would later set everything up and I can’t really choose just ONE but I really do enjoy the scene in Sabrina’s dream where she dreams of Nick asking her to prom and to run away with him. I find it so amusing cause they had literally known each other for one or two days now and Sabrina was so into him already that she was dreaming of him asking her to leave her wedding to the supposed love of her life at the time and I mean she never did say no did she 🤷♀️ and of course the choir scene was just iconic.
2. Are there any scenes you wish had been expanded on in part 1?
I would have loved to see Nick walk Sabrina to class maybe after the lunch table scene and Nick actually being in the Christmas episode would have been fun.
3. What songs remind you of nabrina?
Not gonna lie I have TONS of nabrina playlists but I’ll choose a couple that are the most nabrina esque to me
I Wanna Be Yours- Arctic Monkeys (I mean obviously)
Fine Line- Harry Styles
Dangerously- Charlie Puth
Photograph- Ed Sheeran
Style- Taylor Swift
Somebody to Die For- Hurts
Magic- Coldplay
The Night We Met (feat. Phoebe Bridgers)- Lord Huron
A super late answering of the nabrinafest questions :) (apologizing for the spam future spam lol)
Day 1 questions:
1. What made you fall in love with Sabrina and Nick individually? What made you fall in love with them as a couple
I think for me what first made me love Sabrina so much was how absolutely stubborn she was and how she would never take no for an answer and how headstrong and yet flawed she was, she to me was an accurate portrayal of a 16 year old. I started caos when it had just dropped in 2018 and having been the same age as Sabrina at the time I always felt like we were tied together because we were two 16 year old girls barley discovering life and growing up and that always made me feel connected to her, and made her character much more personal. I also really do love how hard she loves it’s by far her greatest strength.
And as for Nick, I remember when I first started caos I had thought harvey was just kinda bland and I really hoped for another character to spice things up. I was immediately intrigued by how charming Nick was from the literal beginning and I’m gonna have to give props to Gavin for adding all the charm to Nick cause it truly makes Nick, Nick. I love how even since the beginning Nick was willing to help Sabrina with anything and was steady fast by her side. He was never like the other warlocks who tried to put women down and stood his ground in not being like Blackwood and his followers which I loved, he was never intimidated by sabrina he didn’t try to push her down and make her less but instead let her shine. And the fact that he’s the definition of a malewife? just made him so much better in my eyes. Also I love how he’s a huge nerd but denies it.
2. What did I love about them as a couple?
I could literally write an entire thesis on why I love nabrina but I’ll focus on my main one and that’s how deeply and hard they loved each other. I feel like I’ve consumed a lot of media but had never really come across a couple who love each other the way nabrina did. They did absolutely everything for each other, brought out the best and also the worst in each other, stood by each other, and supported each other, loved each other. I think their love was beautiful and intense and it was something neither of them really excepted to happen and neither did I honestly, expecting them to be nothing but a crackship after pt 1 but I was incredibly happy when it turned into more. Nick never knew love but he fell in love with the tiny blonde girl, Sabrina didn’t expect to fall in love with him but when she did it was exciting and exhilarating and yet tragic and heartbreaking but it was true. They loved the other more than anyone else and they really were the best suited option for each other.

Nabrina Winterfest Day 7 : Getting back to normal. That time after the holidays are over.
It’s been a long, hard journey and there are a number of lovely people in this fandom. Shout out love to those whose works you adore, who you’ve gotten to know or would even like to know. Talk about the experiences you’ve had in fandom and round out an amazing week!
I’m pretty sure I did a sappy thank you on tumblr last year, so this is great, now I get an official excuse to do it all over again. The corner of the caos fandom that focus on Nabrina is singlehandedly the best fandom experience that I’ve ever had. People are just nice and lovely and encouraging towards one another. That still goes even if the tempo has wound down substantially since the show finished last year.
First off all though, I feel like I have to tip my hat to the readers who keep coming back to read my self-indulgent smutty stories for Nick and Sabrina. I appreciate each and every one of you, whether you leave a comment on ao3 or lurk around as an anon on tumblr.
Thanks must also go to @thetvmoviefan for being first such a steadfast presence on tumblr and then also starting the Nabrina discord, living proof that you don’t need to write fics or make gifs to be absolutely instrumental to the fandom experience.
Though speaking of gifs, much love to @sabrinspellman for continuing to make gifs despite the show being over. I always love to see new gifs from you pop up.
Really though, the whole of the discord needs to be thanked, because I am not sure I would have managed the spite to keep writing and writing stories for this fandom if the joint viewing party and shouting in unison hadn’t created such spiteful vitriol and made me want to fix things for them.
The biggest shoutout to the fic writers who have created so much lovely new content for us, and who includes so many of the wonderful fic writers. @willowaus @bunivys @misskath90 @thoughtsaboutshows and @shotgunkitten. We have enabled each other so many times in such lovely ways.
Thank you to my sounding board and virtual tea party @willowaus @bunivys @shotgunkitten and @sweet-reverie.
And if I miss name checking anyone, just know it’s not intentional. I see and appreciate you all out there, whether on tumblr or on discord, I love seeing people dedicated to keeping the fandom alive. Thank you <3
Sabrina Scratch wasn’t sure if there was such a thing as getting back to normal as a witch, given their typical life was so far from it by mortal standards.
But there was something about the slow lazy trickle back to day to day life after Christmas. Of waking up on lazy Wintery mornings with nothing to do. There were no rituals or parties or cookies to bake, just time spent with family in front of the fire or bundling up and playing in the snow.
Except Nick had spent most of the last few days putting together every toy and contraption that Little Diana had gotten, her name being the most frequent one listed on the presents under the tree. Mortal technology had come a long way in the last few hundred years, but somehow their toys were behind and still required manual assembly. Sabrina had made a snarky comment once about a hundred years ago when he started building an IKEA dresser with magic, and he’d been determined to do it himself ever since. Sometimes, he could be more stubborn than Sabrina.
Diana sat in the mortuary living room surrounded by a city of toys, shrieking and giggling at each one. The Aunties and Ambrose were all with their respective partners, so it was just the three of them enjoying a moment of peace. Well, as much peace you can have with a four year old.
“She got too much.” Nick said while lounging on the couch with Sabrina.
“Half of those toys are from you.” Sabrina argued with a chuckle.
“I thought this might be the first Christmas she remembered.” Nick turned to kiss her hair. “I wanted it to be special.”
“She made her Barbie say son of an angel earlier, you know. Baby’s first swear, very special.” Sabrina bonked his nose. “She must have heard your frustration with putting those toys together.”
“You say that to me all the time.” Nick shot right back, smirking and poking her in the chest. “She probably heard it from you.”
“You could’ve put those toys together like the powerful warlock you are.” Sabrina grabbed his finger and poked Nick in the chest with it instead.
“You shouldn’t have challenged me, Spellman.”
“Fine.” Sabrina sighed dramatically and leaned her head on his shoulder. “But don’t come crying to me in nine hundred years when you’re old and senile still trying to build a house”
Nick laughed outright and pulled her tighter. She had no idea that she’d just challenged him again, and he’d definitely be building a house in nine hundred years.
Diana started giggling again and the two parents smiled at her. They were passing a cup of hot cocoa back and forth. Nick had offered to get her own but she’d said something about it being nice and cozy to share, and these days he wanted her to be as happy as possible.
At ten months pregnant Sabrina was more than ready to have the baby. They hadn’t planned on having another one so soon. But given their penchant for finding themselves in bed and once and a while forgetting the contraception spell, no one was surprised.
Nick placed his hand on Sabrina’s stomach and felt the baby move just as Diana laughed as a tower of legos fell. A single tear of joy fell from his eye as he took it all in, everything he’d ever wanted was his. Sabrina shifted to kiss his chin and brush away his tear.
“Can’t wait for this little guy to show up.” Nick said with his lopsided smile as he rubbed her belly.
“You and me both, babe.” Sabrina groaned.
“I’ve been thinking about names., Spellman.” Nick turned his head to look at her. His tears had been replaced with a mischievous glint and his classic smirk was on full display. “I have the perfect one for our little boy.”
“Oh no.” Sabrina rolled her eyes, recognizing what that face meant. Trouble.
Nick’s smirk grew and Sabrina braced for impact.
“Harry.”
“Nicholas Scratch.” Sabrina let out a single laugh at his ridiculousness. “We are not naming our son after your ridiculous nickname for Harvey.”
“Why not?” Nick asked with a snicker. “It’d be hilarious and you know it. Plus we all got along well eventually.”
That was true. Nick and Harvey had even stood up in each other’s weddings. And Nick had cried right along with Sabrina at each of her friends’ funerals.
“No. Harry Scratch? Nick, we can’t name our son that.”
“Oh yeah, that’s bad.” Nick realized seriously as eyes went wide. They looked at each other and burst out laughing, Diana eventually looking over her shoulder and joining in.
The laughing faded to humming as Diana joined them on the couch and cuddled close. She grabbed for the hot cocoa, stealing a sip before her parents could stop her.
“Son of an angel that’s hot!” She yelped before handing it back and rejoining her toy village.
Nick looked at Sabrina with raised eyebrows as she bit her lower lip. They erupted into a fit of laughter again and Nick pulled her closer again. They’d work on Diana’s language later.

This was such a fun week and so inspiring for me. I’ve never written more than I have this week and it’s getting me out of my slump.
This Nabrina fandom has been so so wonderful and has definitely been a help to the last few crazy years. Having fics and gifs to escape to when the real world is crazy has been a gift. So shout out to @nabrinadaily and @sabrinspellman and all the other gif creators out there. Like the ones below by @spacesourcx and @likeyouwantme2
Shout out to @unseemingowl @willowaus @bunivys @misskath90 and @shotgunkitten for creating wonderful fics that I get lost in and go back to again and again.
Shout out to @thetvmoviefan for making the discord and nabrina fic lists. I don’t know where I’d be without that discord to word vomit and process about the show in general (and especially the finale). PS shout out to twitter for spoiling it for me i definitely did not want to go in blind.
Also shout out to all the readers out there who read all our fics. And thanks for (maybe) being okay with me writing a whole ass fic about cheating…yikes still can’t believe I did that lol 😂

There are so many wonderful people in this fandom so I know I am going to miss people and I apologize if I do. But I want to say big thanks to:
@thetvmoviefan for creating the Nabrina discord, which I needed so badly when we were watching Part 4 together, and have used before and since then to have some great discussions about my fave couple and the show. IDK what I'd have done without the community that you gave us. Also maintaining the Nabrina fic list so perfectly. Ty!
@bunivys @unseemingowl @shotgunkitten @sweet-reverie for being great sounding boards whenever I'm writing and also being around for fun discussions about Nabrina and everything in between.
And then @thoughtsaboutshows @misskath90 @unseemingowl @shotgunkitten @bunivys for creating such great stories to read and get lost in.

Summary:
Sabrina has always loved Christmas and has dreamed of the holidays in Greendale ever since she left five years ago. She didn’t know what drew her back this year, but felt like it was time. Little did she know the reason she’d left was back too and completely unavoidable. Nicholas Scratch had once considered Sabrina Spellman the love of his life. And this Christmas he’d be reminded of what he always knew, that dreams took many forms: bookstores, and big cities, and even starlight blondes who he’d loved for half of his life.

There’s also a collection started on ao3 at: https://archiveofourown.org/collections/NabrinaWinterfest2021 if you want to add your stories over there too!
Nick had always adhered to the rule of ‘however one spent the first few moments of the New Year set the tone for how the rest of the year would go’. It was always a daily big ritual for the covens, culminating in the end of the Yuletide festivities and usually he’d be involved in whichever rites were being done--leading them after his father and Edward had stepped down.
This year was different though, only Sabrina and him curled up on the couch together. She was due any day now and thankfully everyone had let them be after they joined in on the rest of the festivities. Amalia, Gilly and Salem were scattered around the floor of the living room, lazing about as the music drifted throughout the room. Nick threaded his fingers through her hair with one hand, listening to Sabrina read aloud from the latest horror novel she’d picked up earlier that week. His other hand rested on her stomach, feeling the twins move around every so often.
The music ceased and Sabrina quieted down, the two looking toward the radio as the announcer began announcing that the countdown would start soon.
“You could have still led the ritual,” Sabrina pointed out as she set the book down. He’d have been back in plenty of time.
“Not worth it.” He pressed a kiss to her forehead. “I’m sure Essek and Ambrose did just fine with it. I am right where I want to be.” Where he needed to be, by her side, with those most precious to him in his arms.
“They’ll be there next year, toddling around, maybe saying a word or two.” Sabrina thought that was right from what her aunties had been saying.
They would be able to physically hold the little girls again, to see them outside of their memories and the occasional dream that featured them. They would be too young for anything they had managed to briefly do with them in Heaven, but they would get to see them grow, to watch them blossom into the little girls they knew they would be.
“Who do you think will be first?” Nick knew that some of the coven had a bet on which twin would be born first.
“It’ll be Victoria,” Sabrina murmured, sliding her hand over his that was laying on her stomach.
Nick arched a brow at the certainty in her voice. Too bad he wasn’t allowed in on the bet.
10…9…8…7...
They shifted on the couch, Nick helping Sabrina sit up a bit better, as they counted down along with the broadcast. He brushed his thumb along her cheek, intent on resting his forehead against hers, but was unsurprised when she wrapped her hands in the sweater he was wearing and pulled him toward her, kissing him before they even managed to get to one.
It didn’t last long though, Sabrina pushing away from him seconds later, her eyes wide. “I think my water just broke.”
It seemed they would be meeting their daughters a lot sooner than expected.
