Summary
Thirty-something Nick and Charlie meet as trainee therapists at a psychology practice, and sparks fly immediately. Nick spent his life in an environment where he could never fully be himself, so he suppresses his emotions and shuns vulnerability like a pro. He still has a lot to learn, but he’s sincere and determined – if a little terrified – and when he loves, he does so fiercely and unapologetically. Charlie’s been through a lot, but he’s quite far along in his healing journey after therapy. These days, he’s no longer avoidant (no, really) and swears by his tried-and-true radical honesty policy, alongside a rock-solid coping style grounded in gallows humour and rationalisation. Cue a slow-burn emotional romance with two people learning to love and be loved as they are, lots of personal growth, an unflinching look at the harrowing realities of trauma, and a focus on the gritty, quietly powerful work of recovery.

When you stop a lifetime of playing rugby, you’re probably going to pack on a few kilos if you aren’t careful. Right?

Summary
My axe was the first thing that belonged to me.
Everything we have – from the West boundary to the East – belongs to Papa, but this axe is mine.
I've replaced the handle twice in the past three years; the daily usage means that the wood wears away smooth in the shape of my palm until it becomes too brittle to survive the hard thwack of the head against the logs that are my job to chop. Each time I fix it, I carefully copy the letters of my name from the old wood to the new:
N-I-C-H-O-L-A-S
Or
Nick and his Papa have lived in the woods for as long as he can remember, convinced that they're the last humans alive. That is, until a strange boy stumbles into their clearing.

Summary
Nick Nelson had always been good at two things: Quidditch and talking his way out of trouble.
Unfortunately for him, Charlie Spring seemed immune to both.
As Gryffindor’s newly appointed Quidditch captain, Nick was enjoying the attention that came with winning matches, charming the hell out of students and teachers alike, and being generally adored by most of Hogwarts. Charlie, Slytherin’s painfully intense fifth-year prefect, was significantly less charmed by him.
Especially after catching Nick sneaking back into the castle drunk after curfew.
Or:
Times Charlie Spring tried very hard not to fall for Gryffindor’s disaster captain. And how he failed spectacularly.

Summary
Most people knew this about him, most of his coworkers respected his nods or otherwise silent greetings and didn’t bother to try and converse with him.
All except one Nicholas Nelson, of course.
Nick was a morning, afternoon, mid-afternoon, and night person. Much to Charlie’s chagrin, Nick was a never-off-even-for-a-single-second-of-the-day type person.
And, boy, that irritated Charlie to no end because no person should always be that cheerful and happy and full of conversation.

Summary
Nick Nelson is a single father to a sweet, sensitive 8 year boy named Noah. During their Summer holiday, Nick decides that Noah needs a change of scenery after a rough school year and books them a vacation home near the beach.
Charlie Spring is also a single father to a feisty little 9 year old girl named Ruby. Charlie and Ruby have been planning their Summer getaway to the beach for months and they're excited for a month of beaches and bonding.
It certainly would be unfortunate if some crazy mix up happened with the rental reservations...

Summary
When Charlie Spring's dad gets relocated for work, Charlie and his siblings are forced to leave behind their lives in New York City and start over in a tiny town in South Carolina.
Charlie hates it.
He hates the heat, the smell, the lack of public transportation, the casual homophobia, and the fact that half the town seems emotionally invested in high school football.
Then he meets Nick Nelson.
Nick is a farm boy, a quarterback, and annoyingly nice. He's also funny, patient, ridiculously attractive, and somehow determined to drag Charlie through every small-town summer tradition imaginable.
Charlie keeps telling himself they're just friends.
Unfortunately, that becomes harder to believe with every passing day.

Summary
“Can I help you?” The man shoved past him, not even the slightest bit put off by the biosteel onesie in red and gold. He unlocked the purple door with a wave of his hand (that’s not right, Arthur’s brain insisted) and shoved it open.
“Sorry, I just…” All the words he wanted to say died somewhere between his brain and his mouth. Everything felt wrong but his heart eased up for the first time since he woke up in the middle of what he assumed was a park with a head injury and no memories. He pulled in a deep breath, set his shoulders, and tried again. “I think I belong to you.”
There was a tense moment where neither man breathed.
Or
Superhero Arthur gets amnesia and decides to crash on Merlin's couch while Merlin's doing his best to "save" the city.

Summary
Arthur Pendragon has spent his whole life on a skateboard. For him, skating is discipline, control and who he is.
By his twenties, he’s already the best skater in the world and impossible to beat.
But what happens when someone else enters the game?Merlin Emrys never meant to take skating seriously. For him, skating was freedom first, rules second. But the second he starts winning, the skateboarding world becomes obsessed with him just as quickly as it once became obsessed with Arthur.
And just like that, skateboarding’s biggest rivalry is born.
Their rivalry is wheels grinding against concrete, sparks flying every time they share a park.
Arthur calls Merlin reckless.
Merlin calls Arthur predictable.
Commentators frame them as control vs chaos, king vs sorcerer.But behind broken skateparks and after-hours sessions, something shifts between them.
Trash talk turns quieter. Challenges become dares. Arguments end too close.They’re rivals because the world demands it.
But they become something else because neither of them can skate the same without the otherBookmarked by Bicky32

“Maybe the next one will have your hair,” Nick says, smoothing the brush through the cowlick at the crown of Kittie’s head. “All curly and shiny.”
“The next one?”
“Well, I mean. She wasn’t so hard. I’m sure if we wanted another, I could handle it.”
Silence. When he looks over Charlie is wearing a pensive expression.
“What?”
“You just jinxed yourself,” Charlie tells him.

Summary
"Nick?"
What was that?
"Nick?" Elle puts her hand on his forearm, the warmth jolting him back to his body, but he's looking out of his eyes like they're windows. He blinks them into focus, glances at her. She's wearing golden earrings in the shape of doves, and they glitter in the sun. "Yeah?"
"Are you alright? I called your name like, five times?"
"I-"Are you alright?
He thinks so. He doesn't know what's wrong.
"S-sorry." He manages, after sitting there, struggling for words for a whole minute. "I must've blanked out." He smiles, but it takes effort he doesn't have, and his eyes feel too watery. Elle's hand squeezes, and then falls back to her side. "You can talk to me, you know that- right? Whatever's going on, we can talk."
He registers the offer like he registers wind, and breathing and waking up. Mundane grey. Nothing sticks out, and nothing is his own. He nods anyways.

He couldn't tell you what's wrong. So nothing is.Bookmarked by Bicky32
