Summary
Derek has a new neighbor who won't stop looking.
Excerpt:
“You’re blind,” Derek said flatly, the anger draining from him so suddenly he felt almost woozy. His vision cleared, his claws sliding back into blunt fingernails.
“Thanks for the memo, genius,” the kid said acidly. “I can still fucking defend myself, so don’t take another damn step.”
“Fuck, I...I’m sorry,” Derek stuttered.
“What?!” The kid’s brow crinkled. “I mean — what?! You’re fucking sorry!?” His lips thinned into a harsh line. “What, is this some kinda Hallmark movie where you’re discovering the error of your ways because you don’t want to rob a blind person?! That’s fucking condescending, man. I’ll have you know that —”
“Just, wait.” Derek interrupted what was apparently the start of a convincing argument as to why he should rob the kid after all, feeling his head start to spin. “This is — it’s a misunderstanding. I’m — I’m not robbing you. You’re — you’re safe, okay? I’m taking three steps back. Just — just let me explain.”
“Explain why you came busting into my apartment? Yeah, go right ahead, man, I can’t wait to hear this epic tale.”

Summary
a series of one shots, which progress mostly chronologically, featuring a trans/sub Charlie and his dom boyfriend Nick - from their first time having sex, to a year into their love.
the first four should be read in order, but, other than that - they’re pretty much all able to be read as standalone one shots.
smut and fluff and trans joy only, no angst.
things get super kinky - including scenarios that may be triggering for some readers - so mind the tags.
UPDATE AS AT SEPT. 2025 - THIS SERIES IS ON INDEFINITE HIATUS. I have plans to add future stories but this is unlikely to happen until 2026.

Summary
Up-and-coming designer Elle Argent is about to launch her clothing line. The campaign promises to slay- if long-suffering and insufferably prickly producer Charlie Spring can get their disaster of a team back on schedule.
When movement director Tara ropes Nick into helping with the final frantic preparations, she did not predict the effect her best friend would have on the campaign.
And, as it turns out, neither did Charlie.
*****
“The problem is that we are short one tall, built, male-presenting model, yes?”
Nick nodded along with everyone else.
Elle, Tao, Darcy, Tara, Imogen, and Charlie all slowly turned to look at Nick.
What?
The entire production crew turned to look at Nick.
What…
...
...
Oh, Nick thought.Oh no.

Summary
“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.

Summary
“Ni-ick!” Charlie exclaimed through exasperated laughter. “No s-word, please. I’m so glad you called. I’m just… surprised. It’s a bit strange to hear your voice after spending 70 days trying to imagine it.”
“You’ve counted the days since we met?” Nick asked with unconcealed awe in his voice. This was so endearing, and just so Charlie that it made his heart soar with affection.
Caught off guard, Charlie let out an embarrassed chuckle before regrouping quickly:
“I didn’t need to,” he denied with levity. “My brain’s a calculator. It can’t be stopped. It’s both a blessing and a curse…”
💬💬
The summer after his first year in Leeds, Nick meets Charlie on the University meeting-up App. One problem: while Nick thinks they’re flirting, Charlie believes that Nick only wants to be his friend.
This is a friends to enemies to lovers with a sprinkle of misunderstandings, late-night phone calls and New Year’s countdowns 🎉

Summary
Fake Dating AU. Nick and Charlie have been friends for quite some time when Harry pesters Nick about taking Tara or Imogen to the upcoming school dance Nick lies and says he's already got a date to the dance. Struggling to find someone Nick turns to Charlie and asks him to pretend to be his boyfriend and act like he's in love with Nick to prove to Harry that he can't control Nick's love life. For Charlie it isn't much of an act at all. The hardest part for Charlie is to try and remember that none of this is real. Will Charlie be able to survive the dance without falling entirely for Nick's act? And just how much of it is actually an act?
TRIGGER WARNING: mild homophobic and biophobic comments, and some non-consensual face touching (it's all very minimal and not a major part of the story but figure I'd put in the warning just in case, better safe than sorry!)

Summary
Nick Nelson is a rugby prodigy, and he feels all the crushing weight of what that means. His future has never been his to choose, and he's always been okay with that if it meant making his father, rugby legend Stephane, proud. However, when a video of Nick and the boy who awakened his sexuality that Nick had purposefully kept dormant for years kissing is recorded and spread around campus, Nick's world is flipped on its axis. He's forced into a public outing he wasn't quite ready for and Nick is left to deal with the aftermath that leaves him with a lot of drama, hurt, and baggage that he’s not sure he ever wants to unpack. So, he swears off any distractions, closing the door on all of it - love and relationships and his desires to fulfill a part of himself no one else seems to want to accept. If it isn’t about rugby, if it isn’t about fulfilling his pre-determined destiny, he doesn’t entertain it. And it's all okay because all Nick wants for his last year of uni is to be someone his father can be proud of again. That is until he comes across one Charlie Spring.
Or an au where Nick is struggling to understand himself, Charlie is trying hard to reinvent himself, and the universe is struggling to keep them apart.

Summary
Charlie Spring unexpectedly finds himself living back in his family home in his late 20s wondering where his life is going to go next when a dodgy music cable and an errant fox conspire to send him on a collision course with the new head of French at Truham.
Nick Nelson, is single yet again approaching 30 when he finds an opportunity to return to the town of his early childhood. He's desperate to finally find that connection he's been seeking and thinks maybe he might just have located it in a pair of twinkling blue eyes. But will be demoted to the friend zone once more?
This is a slow burn due to missed opportunities and misunderstandings and there's a lesson for Nick that sometimes it's worth more closely following Darcy's advice.
"He squeezed the wheel and looked in his rear view mirror. What he saw there made his heart skip a beat. A tall, somewhat ruddy faced man with shining auburn hair, large arms and a broad chest was climbing out of the small vehicle. He ran his fingers through his hair, as if this was some sort of bloody shampoo commercial, and then gripped lightly at the back of his neck before starting walking towards Charlie’s car."
