Interdepartmental Cooperation by sophisticatedyet [T]
“So, are you joining me on the walk?”
Charlie could just have said no, but then he would need a reason for why he was standing in the car park in waterproof trousers at 11am on a Saturday, so instead, he forced a smile and said, weakly, “Yep.”
AKA: Nick and Charlie are coworkers who get set up because all their colleagues are fed up with them.
The Rugby Rainbow Alliance by PhoenixSpring [T]
Nick and Charlie are best friends.
Everyone knows that Nick and Charlie are inseparable. Everyone knows they're meant to be together. Everyone except the aforementioned boys.
Enter The Paris Squad and a handful of Rugby Lads to intervene.
Set in Nick's Y12 and Charlie's Y11 in a universe where Charlie never went to Harry Greene's 16th party and they never kissed.
Those Two Oblivious Boys by 7ate9 [G]
In hindsight, it was obvious, really: Nick and Charlie had a crush on each other. After figuring it out, Sai, Otis, and Christian can’t help but try to intervene to give their friends a happily ever after they deserve.
Unfortunately, not everything is as it seems, but that may not mean what the boys think it means.
Unexpected Wingman by Whatteverr888yup [G]
“Charlie couldn’t wait to see his warm brown eyes, endless freckles and the most adorable smile in the entire world. And those strong arms.
God, those arms.
Nick, a regular customer for more than a month, always showed up around the same time. Which, funny enough, was always during Charlie’s morning shifts, so he was the one serving Nick every time.
Coincidence? Charlie hoped not.”
Or,
A coffee shop AU where Charlie is gay panicking, Nick is smitten and Tao is an impatient, supportive straight friend who decides to take matters into his own hands.
Who Needs Luck by kingdomfaraway [G]
Charlie was about to leave when someone else came from the back, this time a tall guy, who looked like he walked straight out of Charlie’s favorite type of dreams. He was broad-shouldered, with arms that would rip a branch in half, with thighs that could squash a watermelon if put to the test. He had dark blonde hair and a scruff auburn beard that made Charlie think of places he’d like to experience beard burn at. He was, arguably, the most handsome man Charlie had ever laid eyes on.
Which probably meant he was straight, or an arsehole, or married, maybe to Darcy even.
The two of them started talking, not loud enough for Charlie to overhear, but after a second Darcy looked at him, followed by the guy. Charlie had to quickly look down but he was pretty sure he was just caught staring at the pair of them.
He had such shit luck sometimes.
