    Summary

    Wilhelm isn’t sure exactly when he fell in love with his best friend. All he knows is that it’s taken root deep inside him, that he loves Simon always and unwaveringly, even when he hates everything else. But the timing is cruel. He’s found what he wants, only for it to slip away before he gets the chance to hold on.

    Because Simon–his sunny, doe-eyed, halo-haired Simon, whose face could stop time, whose fierce determination is matched only by the tenderness of his touch–is leaving.

    or: the best friends-turned-friends-with-benefits-turned-long-distance-boyfriends fic no one asked for.

    Summary

    Everyone knows Simon Eriksson. Everyone knows about his bad attitude, his unmatched silent-treatment abilities, his torn up jean jacket riddled with anarchist propaganda. He had made a name for himself on campus, and not a good one — not that he cared.

    But Wilhelm didn’t know any of this. He didn’t have a year prior to learn the dynamics of his class. He was simply thrust into a new school and expected to fall into line with everyone else. So, of course, he didn’t know the unspoken rule — that Simon Eriksson is not to be messed with. He’s not to be spoken to, looked at, breathed on. He is an enigma and so it shall remain until graduation.

    _____

    Or Simon is in a punk rock band, is a raging socialist, hates everyone at Hillerska and Wille falls in love with him because of it.

    Summary

    In the wake of his breakup with Simon, Wille moves to the other side of the world with Felice. Simon remains in Sweden, and if he's miserable, then no one has to know. Their relationship was doomed from the beginning anyway.

    But when Sara decides to follow after Felice (and, by extension, Wilhelm), she needs help for the move. And Simon's never known how to leave well enough alone, so naturally he's there in a heartbeat.

    Summary

    When Simon gets a scholarship to attend the prestigious summer program at Hillerska Musikskolan, he only has two goals - to hone his skills and prove to everyone, including himself, that he deserves to be there. What his plans certainly don’t include is the spoiled, stuck-up nepo baby he gets put in a room with. It’s all good, though, as long as he can just keep avoiding this Wilhelm character.
    But what if he can’t? And what if it turns out he might not even want to?
