It was the next logical step to having the perfect teenage experience, just like her sister Ingrid had. And it was spring! Love was in the air. For someone, at least. Why not Imogen?

Summary
Charlie Spring, promising rower and outstanding cox, was never meant to study at Cambridge. He wasn’t meant to fall for his rival, either.
Charlie was meant for Oxford, where he began his first year. But nothing went as planned. After a brutal assault, he transfers to Cambridge for his second year, hoping to escape Oxford and the wreckage. There, he finds a new team, a new purpose, and Nick Nelson, star rower with golden-boy charm and far too much to hide.
What begins as animosity turns into something charged and inescapable. But secrets don’t stay buried forever. When the truth surfaces, Charlie and Nick must decide what’s worth risking for a future that might finally be theirs.
Over the course of three academic years, through racing seasons and emotional healing Charlie and Nick’s lives continue to intersect. Their story becomes one of rivalry, resilience, friendship and love.

Summary
Nick can't be gay. He knows he's not gay. He's had girlfriends and loved them so much that it felt like the world might end if he didn't get to see them every single day.
He can't figure out why he feels the exact same way about this boy in his form, and he's not sure if he wants to. If he can just get this boy out of his head, then everything can be normal again. He can repress this... whatever it is. He can be straight again. He did it before. Why isn't it working anymore?
Nick and Charlie in any universe, but we're going to make Nick's bisexuality crisis a lot longer and messier. There will be immense pining, internalized homophobia, and a heavy handed helping of sticky situations with other people on their way back to each other's side, but they'll make it. Eventually.
This fic is based loosely upon "Kitchen Light" by Xana. You're never wrong for who you love <3.

Summary
“People fall in love with their best friends,” Charlie says again. And then he scoots himself down so their eyes connect, cups Nick’s face, and leans in so close Nick can feel his breath, his heartbeat. “And maybe they hide it, because they don’t want anyone to get hurt. Or they’re scared,” Charlie says, so quietly Nick can barely hear him. “But I know you’re lonely– you’ve been lonely, Nick. Things haven’t been good with her for a while now.”
Charlie moves even closer, until their noses are touching and Nick has to close his eyes to stop Charlie’s face from going blurry. “I can treat you better than her,” Charlie whispers, hotly, like he believes it with every fibre of his being, and he’s trying to convince Nick to believe it, too. “When you’re ready,” Charlie continues, thumbs running over Nick’s cheekbones roughly, “I’m here.”
Nick is ready.
Based on "Two Weeks" by FKA twigs

Summary
It’s when he sends away a particularly pretty blonde sub with slight bimbo energy that he sees him.
Stood a few feet away from him is an angel wrapped in sheer silk and leather. The angel is leant against the bar, seemingly unperturbed by his surroundings, and the blue and purple lights are bouncing off of his dark curls, painting him in a kind of iridescent glow, like he’s truly an angel. There’s a half-empty martini glass in front of the angel and Nick watches as he stretches his neck to wrap his tongue then lips around the straw, transfixed at the way his throat bobs with his swallows. Nick feels his trousers tighten and finds himself stepping towards the angel before he can properly think.

Summary
Their feet moved in rhythm with the earth’s breathing and the lake’s leaps. The coldness of Charlie’s body seeped through Nick’s thin clothing but he still held tight, basking in what he now knew to be the last embrace he would share with the boy. His heart’s beating did not change patterns as it broke, thumb playing with the ring while Charlie’s body wreaked with quiet sobs. No hug would have ever been tight enough to hold him together, but the grip they had on each other’s clothes translated the desire to try.
“Can a heart still break once it’s stopped beating?” Charlie whispered so his voice would not break, muffled as it was in Nick’s dirty shirt.
“If it breaks, it loves; and if it loves, it is alive.”
Or: Corpse Bride inspired story where, after months of grief and guilt eating away at Nick’s soul, he finds forgiveness and tentative happiness in an advantageous marriage; only, Charlie hasn’t quite caught up yet and isn’t ready to let him go so easily, not till death do them part - if that.

Summary
If you are familiar with the story of Cyrano de Bergerac this may ring a bell.
Charlie Spring had been friends with Nick Nelson for 11 months, 19 days, and 6 hours.
Charlie Spring had been in love with Nick Nelson for 11 months, 19 days, 5 hours and approximately… 50 minutes.
He was a lost cause. He couldn’t help it, Nick was just so bloody perfect. Irritatingly so, in fact. A great and regular source of disappointment for Charlie was that Nick was also very straight.
Being friends with the radiant ball of sunshine that was Nick Nelson was better than not knowing him at all though, so he harboured his straight boy crush, love crisis, he let it simmer away in a locked away box in his chest, and became Nick's absolute best friend.
The bestest of best friends, the worlds best friend you could ever wish for. -
