First Date Magic by scienceisrealyo [T]

Charlie Spring hasn't gone on a date in a long time. A loooooong time. So when the handsome-yet-douchey guy from the café where he works keeps asking him out, he finally says yes. What could go wrong? (And more importantly…who else might he meet along the way?)

future mother-in-law things by elyseregan [M]

Maybe he’d witness her finally reach level 532 on Candy Crush and celebrate with her over a chocolate digestive. Maybe he’d carry on dipping biscuits into cups of tea and seeing whose disintegrated first for the next year. Maybe he’d share sly smiles and winks at Nick’s expense with the woman sporting a brown bob into the summer months, possibly even beyond. A look into Charlie & Sarah's relationship over the years.

i’m so into you by incompatiblestarsigns [M]

Charlie is a first year at Leeds and keeps running into his flatmate’s friend, Nick. When he starts developing a crush, he realises it may not be as one-sided as he originally thought.

summer's in your blood by glaspen [E]

They’ve been doing this a lot this summer, too: walking around the city in the endless blue twilight, watching the setting sun bruise the sky, talking about nothing and peeking into the windows of houses in nicer areas, debating the décor. They don’t really have the money to do much else, but Charlie can’t think of anything else he’d rather be doing than just existing with Nick. A summer in Nick and Charlie’s lives. Title from True Blue, Boygenius

Speak my language by aprms [T]

Charlie is hopelessly in love with his best friend. He’s also not very good at picking up on hints. Four times Nick shows Charlie he loves him, and one time Charlie returns the favour. A love letter to love languages. Will be posting every day in the run up to Valentine's Day. ❤️

Desperate by Idril [E]

It’s not really jealousy, he thinks. He isn’t jealous that Ben got there first. It’s nothing like that. It’s the fact that Ben didn’t care, doesn’t care, about all the precious things Charlie gave him. Ben took and took from Charlie and gave nothing in return. The thought of him using Charlie, especially like that. It makes him sick. It makes him possessive. It makes him want to fall to his knees and offer himself completely. It makes him take off his jumper and hand it to Charlie just to see his smile. An exploration of how Nick and Charlie's relationship might have changed if they explored sex earlier and deeper.

It's All or Nothing by tinyarmedtrex [E]

"Married at first sight is the first social experiment of its kind, using in depth research and expert opinions to match together eight singles. Those lucky participants will meet and get married on the spot. They then have eight weeks until decision day where they'll make the biggest decision of their lives- will they stay married or get a divorce?" When Nick heard that the infamous show was having its first queer season, he hadn't planned to apply. But after giving it time he decided to give it a shot. After all, he hadn't had any luck on his own, so what was the harm? Then he found out that he was one of the eight chosen to be on the show. Which mean that in a few short days he was going to be married to someone he would meet at the altar. The wedding was only the first step. Never could Nick have predicted all the highs and lows that would come from being married to a stranger. And, after eight short weeks both have a decision to make. Do they want to stay married or get a divorce?

Lavender Fields by scienceisrealyo [E]

31 year old Nick Nelson retired from professional rugby and is giving Sarah Nelson a well-deserved year off from running Lavender Fields Bed and Breakfast. And Nick’s doing fine, thank you very much. Until the guest name C. Spring changes everything. Note: 1-31 are the original story (Nick's point of view). Chapters 32 - 60 are from when Charlie bullied me into providing his perspective, too.

Narlie Waves by waveofyou [E]

A Heartstopper California AU where Nick (31) and the HS crew we know and love live in SoCal. Charlie (29) leaves his London office to work in San Diego for a year. Nellie makes a new puppy bestie. Nick is adorable teaching little first graders. Charlie looks hot playing the drums. Nick looks hot surfing. They…ahem…enjoy Nick’s pool…and shower…and balcony. The boys weirdly get snowed in at one point. In Southern California, go figure. Nick helps Charlie see that he's deserving of big, loud love from a certain golden retriever person. Charlie helps Nick to trust that his love is not conditional, that he's safe to fully express himself. A leaves falling, flower petals swirling story of queer love with a spectacular ocean view 🍂🌊🍂 ⚠️ This is NOT a slow burn. They feel the spark, follow it and make fire Any explicit sections are denoted with “🍂🔥🍂” Any triggering flashback, panic attack or detailed eating disorder moments with “🍂⚠️🍂” …so they can be skipped and the story still enjoyed- I’ve written it so no major plot is lost by skipping these sections 🫶🏻 Alternates between Charlie and Nick POV ♥️

the logistics of love and support by shadowquill17 [T]

Sarah Nelson loves her son very much. So much, in fact, that she is prepared to have the most awkward conversation a parent can have with their child.

look now, the sky is gold by kissmeinnewyork [T]

“Your mum’s been texting me.” Charlie can just about make out Nick’s bemused expression over his shitty student halls wifi connection. “She’s been doing what?” In the days after Nick goes to university, Sarah Nelson looks after Charlie like he's her own. (A collection of stories about found family, empty nests, house keys and Nick, Charlie and Sarah).

Mother Knows Best by 7ate9 [G]

Sarah may not have always known what was bothering Nick, but she always knew when there was something wrong. The one afternoon in February when he was distracted in the car, the months before he’d come out to her, the evening he’d left the cinema with a bruised face. She always knew when there was something deeper at play. She didn’t always know how to help, but she would do just about anything for her son.

Someone Special by agreatwave [T]

“When Sarah meets Charlie Spring, her first impression is that he’s very different to Nick’s other friends.” Sarah sees many different sides of Charlie over the years. She loves each and every one.
