A Conspiracy of Silence by HerneBayBeach

Summary
First fic I've written since before the pandemic, but this show has taken over my heart and my soul.
Inspired by my brain thinking 'well how does Nick decide to become a teacher?', and 'how many of the school rules have Nick and Charlie broken since they got together?'.
Please note that the age of consent in the UK is 16, and this is set when Charlie is in Year 11, and after his birthday (so he is 16). Also it is canon (Word of Alice in 'Nick and Charlie') that they are having sex before Nick leaves school.
This plays fast and loose with a mix of TV canon, Webcomic canon, and, probably, fanon. Aled - no, Isaac - yes.

Summary
This fic is on Hiatus, til further notice sry
Sure, he’s not looking for love, but is respect too much to ask for?
Apparently so, Charlie thinks as he continues to scroll through his messages. He sighs and almost decides to give up on Grindr for the night and switch over to his group chat with his friends. He clicks over to the browse tab again – one last time – and sees someone he definitely hadn’t seen a minute ago.
Nick, 23

Face the world again, firm and courageous.
Then all your troubles will fade from your memory
like floods that are past and remembered no more
Your life will be brighter than sunshine at noon
and life's darkest hours will shine like the dawn
(Good News Translation, Job 11:15-17)I am not at all religious and neither is this story. But I do believe that sometimes we can find a light in the most abysmal places and we can be that light for someone currently shrouded in darkness.
This is a story about the light.

Summary
This could’ve been the best thing that ever happened to me, but instead it’s the absolute worst. When I heard that we were going to have vertical form groups at the start of the new term, I never imagined that the universe had a fucked up sense of humour.
See the thing is, the guy who just sat down next to me with the dark curls and the stormy eyes, his name is Charlie Spring. I’ve had a massive crush on him for the better part of a year… and I’m pretty sure he has no idea who I even am. Or if he does then he probably doesn’t have a good opinion of me. And now not only is he in my form group, but he’s been assigned to sit right next to me.
This could’ve been a great way for us to finally actually meet; I wouldn’t have to think up some elaborate reason to get to talk to him, I could just strike up casual conversations and we could get to know each other. Then when I finally got the courage to confess, I wouldn’t be some random stranger.
It could’ve been the best thing… except…

Summary
It’s when Stan pushes a curl off Charlie’s forehead with a tender finger that Nick realises he’s never seen Charlie, like, canoodle with a boyfriend before. How can that be right? He’s had every chance to observe Charlie’s dating behaviour with all of his recent exes, but for some reason… he’s literally never seen Charlie kissing a man?
…☕☕☕…
Nick and Charlie are neighbors, best friends (don't tell Tao), and bros being pals. Because he's the best mate a guy could have, Nick sets Charlie up with Stan. Unfortunately, when he sees Charlie and Stan with each other, Nick feels Some Type of Way. Things devolve from there.
Featuring pining!Charlie, oblivious!Nick, exasperated friends, and relentless ribbing.
