Joe made his Broadway debut this year, and Kit is about to, so reading some Nick and Charlie theatre fics seems like a great way to celebrate, eheh 🎭

Heartstopper school musical: the bisexual metaphor by MooseHMUU: Nick Nelson has always loved rugby. But when injury strikes he must find something else to fill in his time. This leads him to the school theatre to kill time in his afternoons but little does he know the way the theatre will grow to be dear to him, and maybe one curly haired member of the cast in particular.

Fable and Fortune by fickle_pheasant: Charlie Spring is the production manager for his university's production of Twelfth Night. When former athlete Nick Nelson scores a leading role in the play, Charlie must employ his own acting expertise to pretend he isn't catching feelings for him.

Take Me, Baby by allamosaurus: “Um, do you want to work together?” a deep voice says from behind Charlie. He turns around to see none other than Nick fucking Nelson standing there, looking ridiculously perfect, shuffling his feet and staring down at Charlie with a quiet, nervous air about him. Charlie doesn’t even know why Nick even joined the theatre soc; he’s already bloody rugby king and one of the most popular lads on campus. And fuck, he is such a lad. And yet here he is, asking to be Charlie’s partner for a musical warm up. Charlie doesn’t even think he’s ever heard the blonde man sing.

Theatre Club by RockySidewalks: "Otis, you know damn well I have no musical ability."Otis is not gonna get him to join the school musical play with that logic. However, his friend knows him too well. There is a logic that has more probability to get to him. “It's your opportunity to finally talk to him, mate". Him. He knows exactly who he is talking about. Nick has heard from Otis that a certain popular brunette named Charlie Spring, who is also the head boy of Truham Grammar School and Nick's unbearable crush, is gonna be participating in the next school play. Nick knows he's being manipulated, and it's working.

I’ll be the Princess by charliespringed: a partially canon-compliant universe where Nick is cast to play Romeo in the Spring play and he needs some help from his best friend Charlie to run lines. Bi-panic ensues.

*I’ll try to keep these lists updated, so I suggest you come back from time to time if you more interested*

More lists to come!

I love Christian, Otis and Sai and I’ve read a lot of great fics where they try to meddle, or where they’re just menaces (I love it so much that I also wrote one myself), so here’s a list of fics you should read if you love it too🤭❤️

Those two oblivious boys by 7ate9: In hindsight, it was obvious, really: Nick and Charlie had a crush on each other. After figuring it out, Sai, Otis, and Christian can’t help but try to intervene to give their friends a happily ever after they deserve. Unfortunately, not everything is as it seems, but that may not mean what the boys think it means.

You try on calling me baby like trying on clothes by Brookhacker: Charlie picks up an old rugby hoodie at a clothing swap. Sai bumps into him in the laundry room wearing it and draws conclusions. Nick sets out to meet this boy, who Sai claims is his "dream man".

Fourth Date by PancyFace22: Towards the end of their fourth date at the busiest venue in town, Nick and Charlie are surprised by Otis, Christian, and a frantic Sai, who forgets they are waiting for Nick to tell them about him and Charlie. A slightly different take on the rugby trio being cool with Nick and Charlie.

Fools’ Errands by Yojfull: Charlie wasn't sure how living with a rugby lad would go, but things are pretty pleasant until April rolls around. It turns out his flatmate has been engaged in a multi-year prank war with his friend, and now Charlie is in the crossfire.

Sai Saves the Date by FaiaSakura: Nick’s friends know about his crush on Charlie and meddle for the better at Harry’s party.

The Rugby Rainbow Alliance by PhoenixSpring2: Nick and Charlie are best friends. Everyone knows that Nick and Charlie are inseparable. Everyone knows they're meant to be together. Everyone except the aforementioned boys. Enter The Paris Squad and a handful of Rugby Lads to intervene.

I’m captivated by you baby like a firework show by Brookhacker: Nick and Charlie work at the same amusement park over the summer holiday. Sick of seeing his friend pinning away like an idiot, Christian hatches a plan to get Nick and Charlie to the top of the ferris wheel just in time for a convenient breakdown.

In the Closet by LazlotheJeep: A prank is planned. A confession is planned. Neither go as planned.

With a Gentle Touch by me: Charlie is in his first year of university and lives with Nick, Christian, Otis and Sai. After a few sleepless nights, Nick, his crush and roommate, confesses to Charlie that he has trouble sleeping and receiving light back scratches help him fall asleep. What happens when, concerned for Nick, Charlie offers to help? With a bonus point of view from Otis and Sai in each chapter.

Really Good Mates by pheoni, RosieC88: 5 times Christian thought Nick and Charlie were really good mates + 1 time he realised how shit his gaydar was.

NickxCharlie fic recs

“Charlie doesn’t realize he and Nick are dating” is such a great trope! Here’s a list of fics you should read if you agree 🤭❤️

Rugby Lad by sophisticatedyet: Charlie thinks agreeing to join the Truham rugby team at the request of Mrs Singh is possibly the worst decision he’s ever made. Then Nick Nelson, the St John’s fly half, sweeps him off his feet (literally) and Charlie decides maybe rugby isn’t so bad.

Friends as in Friends, or Friends as in FRIENDS? by PhoenixSpring: Nick Nelson has a big, embarrassing crush on the cute drummer in the year below him who doesn't even know he exists.That is, until one day Nick plucks up the courage to ask the enigmatic Charlie Spring on a date. At least Nick thinks it's a date, but does Charlie?

Knife Overnight by eefja: charlie spends the first year of uni shagging, kissing, and dating a certain mr. rugby. he is only aware of doing two of these things. luckily, they are both rubbish at communicating.

It’s time we danced with the truth by orphan_account: Charlie's perfectly fine being just Nick's friend with benefits. (He's not). (Good thing Nick's not either).

He comes to me at night by 7ate9: Charlie is fine. Really, he is. He doesn't think about what happened that day, he doesn't think about what Ben did. He doesn't think about it. He dreams about it. One night, when the dreams are too intense, Charlie calls the only person who knows: Nick.

Clueless (all the damn time) by thirteenick: Nick Nelson is hopelessly in love with his new form partner, Charlie Spring. The cool nerd drummer player makes his heart jump out of his chest and become incapable of starting conversation. Because there is no way Charlie could possibly like him back... Right?

Unconscious bias by BluestJM: Nick is dating Charlie, but Charlie hasn’t caught on yet.

Fright Nights

read it on AO3 at https://ift.tt/Wny8t5J by vheartcn (vanssjj) Nick was pretty sure the person he ran into wasn’t a guest, but another actor. “I’m so sorry. Are you okay?” the guy said, his voice rough, probably because of all the high-pitched noises his job required him to make for hours on end. “Y-yeah, I think so,” Nick mumbled. Before he could say anything else, the guy walked them both backwards a little and dragged him behind a curtain in an empty corner. “We were in the way,” he explained. Nick was about to thank him and beg him to show him the exit when a flash of glowing red light illuminated the guy’s face. Nick’s eyes widened. “Charlie Spring?” He sputtered instead, in shock. ☾ ⋆*･ﾟ:⋆*･ﾟ☾ ⋆*･ﾟ:⋆*･ﾟ☾ Or: Nick spends the Halloween weekend in Thorpe Park with Tara and Darcy. Surely nothing happens when he finds out that one of the scare actors working in the scare maze they drag him into is none other than Charlie Spring, his university crush. He isn’t a fan of horror, after all. Or is he?

Sleepwalking confessions

read it on AO3 at https://ift.tt/tfhVnOs by vheartcn (vanssjj) Nick: “I like you so much.” 4:24 a.m. Nick: “I wish I could kiss you so badly. I’m dying to know what that would feel like.” 4:27 a.m. (seen at 7:04 a.m.) When Nick tried to turn his alarm off that morning and didn’t find his phone on the nightstand table where it usually was, a familiar sense of unease washed over him. Instead, he found it between the covers of his own bed. Trying to talk himself out of the panic he could feel rising in his chest, he checked it. His heart sank. There, staring back at him, were the latest messages he sent to Charlie, his best friend. At 4 am. With no memory of sending them. *** Or: Nick suffers from sleepwalking and one night he accidentally confesses his feelings to Charlie via text. What happens when he wakes up and finds out?
