forever and a day by flannelfeelings [T]

“Have I hurt you?” he gasps out, though he’s unable to release his grip. Charlie looks down at their intertwined hands, managing a small, humorless chuckle. “You’re absolutely mad, Nelson. You’ve got a broken ankle and you’re worried about holding my hand too hard?” (Nick gets injured during a rugby game when Charlie comes to visit for the weekend- fluff caretaking ensues)

It's All or Nothing by tinyarmedtrex [E]

"Married at first sight is the first social experiment of its kind, using in depth research and expert opinions to match together eight singles. Those lucky participants will meet and get married on the spot. They then have eight weeks until decision day where they'll make the biggest decision of their lives- will they stay married or get a divorce?" When Nick heard that the infamous show was having its first queer season, he hadn't planned to apply. But after giving it time he decided to give it a shot. After all, he hadn't had any luck on his own, so what was the harm? Then he found out that he was one of the eight chosen to be on the show. Which mean that in a few short days he was going to be married to someone he would meet at the altar. The wedding was only the first step. Never could Nick have predicted all the highs and lows that would come from being married to a stranger. And, after eight short weeks both have a decision to make. Do they want to stay married or get a divorce?

Nick is in his first year of uni and out for a night with the lads, when one of them mentions that he and Charlie are practically married. Nick is not even surprised at how much he likes the idea.

Nick Nelson has had a secret for many years. Secrets can be hidden away, but they are always there waiting to be shared. A story about acceptance.

Your daily moment of Heartstopper joy, in which Nick and Charlie are finally reunited after three weeks apart. 95 days until season 2!

The Quarantine Chronicles by CJShips [T]

Inspired by the Heartstopper Mini-Comic: The Haircut, aged-up Nick and Charlie navigate pandemic life. I hope to make this a series of vignettes, but I wrote this first chapter as a stand-alone. Come on Charlie, just get here Nick begged internally, raising a hand to scrub his face. … Irrational thoughts that he’d been walling off for hours began to break through. What if Charlie’s flight had been re-routed? Or not taken off at all? Or what if the flight had arrived at SFO but for some reason, Charlie wasn’t on it? What if the United States sealed its borders and Nick became trapped in a different country from the most important person in the world? … For the first time since he and Charlie moved to San Francisco eight months ago, Nick wondered if it was a terrible mistake.

Speak my language by aprms [T]

Charlie is hopelessly in love with his best friend. He’s also not very good at picking up on hints. Four times Nick shows Charlie he loves him, and one time Charlie returns the favour. A love letter to love languages. Will be posting every day in the run up to Valentine's Day. ❤️

sweet as summer, bright as the sun by shadowquill17 [T]

Later that night, when the Nick’s little cousins have gone to bed and there’s not a sound in the house except for the quiet talking of the adults in the kitchen, Nick turns to Charlie and kisses his shoulder. “Come take a dip with me?” he asks. “Now?” “Yeah. We can just be the two of us.” Charlie’s eyes glitter in the low light. “Okay.” Nick brings Charlie on his family holiday to Menorca.

Tristan Hayes has just joined Truham’s rugby team, and Nick has a feeling he might turn out to be a bully. Because of course, there's no other reason Tristan could be looking at Charlie… right?

Damn, I Miss You Tonight by Cherry_likethefruit [M]

“I think no talk about uni should mean no talk about GCSEs either.” Nick felt a bit unmoored. There was something in the way Charlie was looking at him that made his heartbeat quicken. “Uh, what do you want to talk about then?” “We could talk about…Saturday?” Charlie took his bottom lip between his teeth, and suddenly Nick was finding it nearly impossible to ignore his growing erection. He wasn’t really sure how Charlie made the gesture look both shy and obscene at the same time, but the combination was really working for him. Nick swallowed hard, trying to maintain some semblance of cool for at least a while longer. “Are you excited for the fête?” Charlie smirked. “I mean, that wasn’t really the exciting event I had in mind.” A continuation of Heartstopper chapter 7 - 27… Or, what I think probably happened between comic pages 1467 and 1468.

For Everyone (Except Me) by 7ate9 [G]

“Nick, I was… thinking… about us?” He wasn’t sure why it came out as a question. Nick nodded, trepidation encroaching on his light expression. “Okay.” “And, well, um…” The speech, remember the speech. “I just think that, well.” Charlie took a deep and forced himself on. For Nick. For Tao. For everyone. (Everyone except me.) “I think it might be better if we, you know…” Charlie swallowed heavily and forced himself to continue holding Nick’s gaze. For Nick. “If we stopped doing this.” If Charlie got through the break up in season 1

Is it Okay if we, like… Keep this a secret? by PhoenixSpring [T]

5 times Nick and Charlie think they're keeping their relationship a secret, plus the 1 time they realise they've been caught.

future mother-in-law things by elyseregan [M]

Maybe he’d witness her finally reach level 532 on Candy Crush and celebrate with her over a chocolate digestive. Maybe he’d carry on dipping biscuits into cups of tea and seeing whose disintegrated first for the next year. Maybe he’d share sly smiles and winks at Nick’s expense with the woman sporting a brown bob into the summer months, possibly even beyond. A look into Charlie & Sarah's relationship over the years.

the logistics of love and support by shadowquill17 [T]

Sarah Nelson loves her son very much. So much, in fact, that she is prepared to have the most awkward conversation a parent can have with their child.

look now, the sky is gold by kissmeinnewyork [T]

“Your mum’s been texting me.” Charlie can just about make out Nick’s bemused expression over his shitty student halls wifi connection. “She’s been doing what?” In the days after Nick goes to university, Sarah Nelson looks after Charlie like he's her own. (A collection of stories about found family, empty nests, house keys and Nick, Charlie and Sarah).

Mother Knows Best by 7ate9 [G]

Sarah may not have always known what was bothering Nick, but she always knew when there was something wrong. The one afternoon in February when he was distracted in the car, the months before he’d come out to her, the evening he’d left the cinema with a bruised face. She always knew when there was something deeper at play. She didn’t always know how to help, but she would do just about anything for her son.
