Summary
He leans closer to Nick, smiling at the coolness of Nick’s pendant brushing against his shoulder as Nick curves towards him too; the bowing of two trees growing towards each other instead of the sun, like salvation and vitality is found within the other. “We said forever, right?”
Charlie swears he hears Nick’s heart kick up a beat as intones softly, “Yeah, baby. Forever.”
Charlie turns to looks at Nick and thinks of that James Baldwin quote that warms him like the golden rays of the last of summer's sunshine:
"Love him and let him love you. Do you think anything else under heaven really matters?"
charlie and nick met on hinge and fell in love. life hasn't been perfect, but it didn't have to be. they love each other. this is their happy ending.
one story told over five volumes.
vol. i, ii & iii. | vol. iv. | this is vol. v - the end.

Summary
Nick squares his shoulders and sighs. He wishes he still had a drink in his hand to distract him. “Sometimes, people think Charlie and I have this, like, perfect relationship. That we’re too good to be true—'cause we’ve been together for so long, and we got together so young, and we love each other. Like, it’s—” he searches for the word— “unsustainable, or something.”

Summary
Thick, twisted fingers reach out to grab me as I walk – branches that whip and jerk in the wind as they attempt to hold steady against the weather. To my left, the broken shutters of a long-closed-down shop have layers of graffiti decorating them. soulmarks crudely scrawled onto the metal with the owners’ phone numbers written underneath. I wonder whether that tactic has ever worked.
Or
Charlie is a tattooist specialising in altering soulmarks. Nick wanders into his shop.

Summary
Nick Nelson: Hi. It seems we’ve matched on here. How’s your night going? :)
Charlie was almost afraid to reply back to the brand new message. But there hadn’t been any dick pics yet or threats to fucking kidnap him yet, so it was at least a step up from what Charlie was used to. Still trying to calm down from the last encounter he’d had, he sent a tentative message back.
Charlie Spring: Hi…I’m okay, I guess. I just downloaded the app today, and it’s been…very overwhelming.
OR
Charlie Spring is a sub six months fresh out of an abusive relationship, and Nick is the gentle Dom he meets on a BDSM dating app.

It's hard being casual when Nick is constantly telling everyone "we're not together" and it kills Charlie a little more each time.
It's hard being casual when it's what neither of them actually want.

Summary
Nick’s never really been on a “cut” before. Naturally, he’s done enough research on it and his tiktok feed tends to be rife with gym bros caught in bulk/cut cycles. He knows enough about cutting to understand that he’s not exactly excited that Noah, his captain, decided it’d be a good idea for the whole team to cut their caloric intake right before finals. Really, it’s absurd.
But nobody else complains, so Nick doesn’t either. It’s his first year on the team and he really doesn’t want to get on anyone’s bad side by bringing up the rate of eating disorders among male athletes; information Nick only has because Charlie relayed it to him while he was in his treatment program. His mind is a sea of random mental health facts now. Not that he minds, of course. He figures it’s better to be educated about these things than totally ignorant.
Besides, if one of the lads starts displaying symptoms, Nick is totally prepared to step in and handle things before it gets out of hand.
* * *
He isn't prepared to be the one that needs help this time.

“No problem,” Charlie replies quietly, eyes locked on me. Something fizzles between us, I swear, when he lifts his glass to his lips and regards me carefully over the rim. I wonder if he can tell that I want him.
Or,
Nick’s relationship is fixable, he swears. Until a certain curly haired boy walks in to his life.

His friends and family are worried about him, but he's fine, just fine. Honest.His best friends, Tara and Darcy, persuade him that the solution to his money worries is to rent out his spare room for 6 months. He just needs to find someone suitable.
Charlie Spring, 22, is fed up of being walked all over by his (ex) boyfriend. He needs to move out of their shared flat ASAP if Ben is ever going to accept that they are over.

Summary
Charlie watches as the broad figure of his favourite customer slips through the door and disappears into the darkness of the bleak winter evening. He’s eternally grateful for the fact that the shop has pretty much emptied out now, and Elliot is occupied with washing up in the back room, giving him a moment alone to sigh dreamily to himself as he stares after him and lets the residual fluttering in his stomach settle back down to normal.
—————
Or, Charlie is slowly having his soul crushed working as a barista, but at least he has the daily visit from his favourite regular customer to look forward to. A coffee shop AU.

Summary
The boy’s loose t-shirt ripples in a salty gust of wind as he fishes for a pen in the waiter’s apron tied around his waist. He frowns in confusion for a moment, his fingers clearly finding nothing in there, before he remembers with a chuckle to himself and reaches up to retrieve the pen from behind his ear, dislodging another errant curl from his headband. Nick runs his tongue over his parched bottom lip and wonders if he might’ve just broken the world record for fastest time ever to develop a crush on someone.
☀️🍦🌊
Two-shot. Nick is on a lads holiday with the boys when he lays eyes on a beautiful, tanned, curly haired waiter. On his last night he finally plucks up the courage to talk to him.

Summary
Nick Nelson is a tangled, pulsating fog of yearning in the shape of a man, and has been for the past eight years since meeting Charlie in university. It was fine, and it worked for him. He was happy with his tactile friendship with Charlie and was content to live on crumbs of affection and let his desire burn in the background until he could pluck up the courage to say something.
And then Charlie got a fucking boyfriend.

or, nick is a loverboy, and he is jealous and it's all very normal, he promises.

Summary
It’s strange at first that after a week of being broken up with, he was suddenly dating someone new, and being asked to be someone’s boyfriend only a week after. He only finds it strange because he knows others would find it suspect — did he even ever like Ben? Shouldn’t he be more broken up about the whole thing?
But after a bit of berating himself over not caring about Ben as much as he should’ve, he gave up on that bitterness towards himself and extended a deep love towards Nick instead.
Because, yeah, Charlie loves him. He really, really does.
or, Charlie falls in love with Nick; it's not slowly, but it is all at once.
