    Summary

    Fed up with always being single on the holidays, the perfect solution drops into Charlie’s lap when his aunt tells him about holidates. Someone only for the holidays. No strings. No expectations. No judgement.

    Meanwhile, Nick is trying to be casual. He's always gotten too much for the people he's dated. He always jumps too high, too fast. And so, when he meets the grumpy but beautiful Charlie, it isn’t long before they agree to be each other’s platonic plus-ones all year long.

    But as the seasons change, their hearts begin to yearn for something more.

    Summary

    In the Garden, purity is everything.

    Desire is called Noise. Doubt is infection. Obedience is survival.

    Nicholas has spent his life trying to be good — to silence every stray thought, to follow every rule, to trust that if he empties himself enough, he will be made worthy. But when his growing closeness with Charles begins to stir feelings he cannot name, the Garden takes notice.

    What begins as whispers turns into discipline. What feels like repentance becomes punishment, disguised as love.

    As loyalties fracture and faith grows thin, Nicholas must decide whether purity is worth the cost — and how much of himself he is willing to sacrifice to protect someone the Garden has already condemned.

     

    TLDR

    In a rigid religious commune obsessed with purity, a young man’s forbidden feelings lead to trouble— and the unraveling of everything he thought was holy.

    Summary

    Eighteen-year-old Charlie Spring does not live a charmed life. His factory town is dying, his parents are barely scraping by, and his older sister, Tori, is entangled in some money-making scheme that might not be legal. Charlie's own future seems to hold nothing but dead-end jobs and a slow crawl through community college.
    But for a few golden weeks each fall, life gets better—because Charlie works at Huckleberry Mountain, a cheesy old amusement park with a haunted train ride that turns his boring, rust-belt life into something almost magical. For the past two seasons, he's been the backup to Mina Parsons, the hometown sweetheart who always played the lead conductor.
    That is, until a few months ago, when Mina vanished. No one knows if she ran away or if something more sinister happened. And now everyone’s looking at her boyfriend—Nick Nelson—as the main suspect. The same Nick Nelson Charlie's been in love with since, well, forever.

    Summary

    Charlie doesn’t have an issue with Nick being straight. Nick is very sweet and caring, and a great best friend.

    The only issue is that Charlie, against his better judgement, is falling in love with him.

    or: Nick and Charlie meet as they move into a flatshare. They quickly become best friends and everything is going great, except... Charlie is utterly smitten. And it seems like Nick needs tons of physical affection to thrive. Constantly. Repeatedly. And Charlie is the only person around.

    Charlie doesn't mind. That's what friends are for, right?

    Summary

    “Nick,” Charlie spoke firmly, snapping Nick back to attention. His gaze was trained on Nick, a tinge of desperation seeping into his voice. “Do you not know who I am?”

    Nick hesitated a moment. He wracked his poor, throbbing brain one last time for some memory of the boy in front of him. He wished so badly that he could tell Charlie something else, anything else, and not cause him more anguish.

    “No, I'm so sorry. I don't remember you.” And then, because he couldn't seem to stop his big mouth. “Should I?”

    ***

    An AU where Nick and Charlie met and get together in uni. Nick has an accident during a rugby game that leaves him with memory issues. Charlie has to help navigate Nick's recovery while dealing with the pain of his boyfriend forgetting him.

    Summary

    “I think Charlie is the most beautiful person in the whole world.”

    Charlie felt his face heat up. Sarah beamed. “I should hope so. He is your boyfriend after all.”

    “What?” Nick yelped.

    ***

    Nick is somehow even more of a sap when he's waking up from anesthesia, and he can't believe Charlie's actually his.

    Summary

     

    OP has offered the following explanation for why they think they might be the asshole:

    I gave my bestie (and flatmate)'s smarmy git of a boyfriend an absolute bollocking after he was horrible to my bestie about his eating disorder.

    Now I think they might have broken up, my bestie won't talk to me, and my girlfriend yelled at me. My bestie is the most important person in the world, and I would do anything to make him happy, so I need to know if I'm the asshole.

    Summary

    Nick Nelson is twenty-six and a rising semi-professional rugby player in London, admired for both his skill and his looks. But when a devastating injury pulls him off the field and into a hospital bed for months of recovery, Nick is forced to confront a world that suddenly feels very small and frighteningly quiet.

    Assigned as his primary nurse, Charlie Spring is calm, kind, and quietly observant. A young man more comfortable in hospital corridors than stadium crowds. Determined to stay professional, Charlie focuses on helping Nick heal, even as small moments of laughter, vulnerability, and shared silence begin to blur the lines between patient and caregiver.

    As Nick struggles with pressure from his distant father, the loss of his identity as an athlete, and the unexpected pull toward someone he was never supposed to fall for, Charlie must balance duty with feelings he isn’t sure he’s allowed to have.

    A slow-burn romance about healing, patience, and finding connection in the most unexpected place.

    Summary

    Nick Nelson flies to Almeria for a planned family holiday meet up, only to find out that his dad and brother are a few days delayed. Thankfully, at Casa Primavera, they (mostly) give a warm welcome and, despite holidaying solo, Nick finds himself somewhat enamoured by it all; with Spain, with the hotel, and, most of all, with one staff member in particular.

    It’s just a shame that summer flings don’t last forever…

    Summary

    Anytime Nick got drunk, or even tipsy, he’d come up with things for the boyfriend contract. Things that Charlie had apparently signed off on, despite doing no such thing. In the past it included things like, taking pictures of any dogs spotted in the wild, always dancing to any ABBA song (Charlie could not understand why this was important), consulting Nick before any haircut could take place and once, after drunk Nick fell and scraped his knee, kissing all booboos better.

    Most of the time they were things Charlie was already doing, and didn’t need a contract to want to do, but sometimes it was silly hypothetical things.

    (Or Nick is a little high on pain medication and says some silly and fun things to Charlie)
