    Summary

    Nick and his mother have run an acclaimed but small restaurant, 25 Seats, for the past five years. When it starts to get a bit taxing on Nick handling it all alone, his mum Sarah suggests they hire in some kitchen help. Nick reluctantly agrees, and Sarah puts out a want ad, which is answered by an anxious young man with no previous kitchen experience. Nick sees him as a potential liability, but his mother hires him anyway. Charlie Spring gets in the way, botches food, and generally disrupts Nick's entire life, but there's definitely got to be a reason Sarah chose him, right?

    Fluff with mild angst. My love letter to restaurant work, embellished a bit to be slightly more romantic than it actually is.

    Summary

    The sun was beginning to go down. Maybe he’d just get something quick to eat at Tesco on the way home. Didn’t really feel like cooking. But he wasn’t exactly hungry, either, and he didn’t like to eat much the night before work, not when he needed to look good on camera. He nixed the idea of Tesco and got in his car, starting the ignition and letting it idle in the parking lot for a moment.

    Charlie stared out of the windscreen.

    Sometimes he had to just - sit for a moment. Alone. He loved how quiet and contained the car was after everyone talking to him and looking at him for hours and hours and hours.

    He loved the work, though, he told himself. Really loved it.

    Charlie Spring is an actor in the adult film industry, one of the more popular twinks at HS Entertainment. His manager keeps promising to get him a bigger and better role, but he's beginning to lose faith in him - and when another agent signs a well-known OnlyFans model for a larger joint project, Charlie's dismayed at having to work with yet another gay-for-pay straight guy.

    Heartstopper AU. Literal porn with plot.

    Summary

    Charlie hates rugby lads, he has every reason to. Little does he know, one rugby lad might be a little different. A little more than a little, perhaps. Fine, he's a goddamn puppy dog and smitten kitten, alright? We all know how simpy Nick can be. Well, take the simpiest Nick you know and multiply the simpiness by ten thousand. Sounds disgusting? Add pink flowers to the mix and that's this pining bi-disaster. Fortunately he has a cute dog and a good friend by his side. Call your dentist, there's sickeningly fluffy fluff on the horizon!

    Summary

    Charlie Spring finally settles on a university away from home, away from his past in Kent, hoping for a fresh start. And, to be honest, hoping for a man. His teenage years were filled with hardly a drop of romance, and let's be honest, there's only so much a teenage gay boy can bottle up. What he doesn't realize is that he's going to be surrounded by so many different, very attractive men in university, and that could have some consequences.

    Nick Nelson, hoping to get his own fresh start after fizzling out at University of Leeds, heads for a smaller school. Unfortunately, his brother's reputation follows him around like a bad case of the clap, attracting requests from various organizations and fraternities to join. What Nick doesn't realize is that his pathway is about to collide with several others during his sophomore year, revealing feelings he has denied and kept hidden for the past decade.

    We all know that Nick and Charlie are destined to be together, in any universe, but what will it take in this one?

    Generally mature, but E-rate will be added to Chapter summaries that are bit more *graphic*
