pt 1: isn't it strange...?

Harry Lewis is a small football TikTok creator and is asked by Sunday League star Simon Minter if he wants to join the team. Harry finds a whole group of friends he adores and maybe something else too? Loosely inspired by the song Strange by Celeste.

pt 2: it's just a game, but really?

Title from So High School by Taylor Swift. Ethan’s POV of the New Years Party. If you haven’t read Isn’t It Strange..? this probably won’t make sense so please go read that first.

pt 3: once every few lifetimes

Simon and Harry have been back together for a year now. Then something happens that turns their entire lives upside down. Loosely inspired by The Alchemy by Taylor Swift

Harry shocks his friends by casually coming out in the middle of a Big Wedge Video (Yes… this actually happened: BRYSON DECHAMBEAU VS BIG WEDGE GOLF! 1:09:20)

Detective Inspector Simon Minter has been chasing the same burglar since he first got promoted to Detective, but has never been able to catch him. Then his boss hands him a new case, to take down an up and coming gang on the streets of London. But a new flame in his life could make things a little more bright.

George deals with the fallout of his break-up with Chris while publicly pretending nothing happened.

Simon Minter has been in a coma for six months. Six months of loneliness until Harry Lewis walks into his life. The first person to see and hear Simon since his accident, Simon can’t help but spend every moment with the man. What could go wrong? Very much inspired by Just Like Heaven and Julie and The Phantoms as well as the fic and chapter names coming from Beautiful Ghosts by Taylor Swift. (I promise I do listen to other music sometimes.) Ngl, this is the most unhinged thing I’ve ever written I’m so sorry.

pt 1: abandoned and enlightened

Harry gets wet and Simon might feel some type of way. Or Simon realises he might have feelings for Harry and finds out Talia isn’t all that opposed to it.

pt 2: snowflakes in my stomach when we're kissin'

Simon realises the depth of his feelings and invites Harry on a Christmas trip.

pt 3: if you love me (what's the worst that can happen)

The secrets out.

pt 4: a beautiful night

Ethan and Faith host a beautiful wedding and Simon can’t help but feel lucky.

George has been quietly watching Ethan for a while now, silently crushing on him. That is until a nosy Geordie notices him looking.

And you know damn well For you, I would ruin myself A million little times - I’ve altered their ages slightly for the purposes of the story so Simon is his age now but Harry is like 24. Inspired by Illicit Affairs by Taylor Swift and also a little bit by my bestie who is a messy bitch 🫢
