21 Jan 2025

Summary
When Truham announces a school trip to Madrid, Nick and Charlie are thrilled to embark on another adventure with the Paris Squad.
For Charlie, this trip feels deeply personal—an opportunity to connect with his Spanish heritage in ways he’s never fully shared. As the group explores Spain’s vibrant culture and history, they uncover truths about identity, stereotypes, and the bonds that hold them together in a last trip before some of them go to college. With Nick by his side, Charlie finds himself embracing the parts of him he’s kept hidden, while Nick learns how much more there is to love about the sexy boy who’s stolen his heart.
Or a love letter to the city that took me under its arms.

Summary
Charlie’s fingers brushed against skin, and he nearly jumped at the jolt of electricity that ran down his arm at the contact. His eyes flew up and he felt his world turn upside down.
Warm brown eyes clashed with his. Eyes that belonged to a handsome face with a strong jaw and a scruffy beard with a hint of red in it. Dirty blonde hair sat atop his head, pushed perfectly to the side as if it didn’t need a salon’s worth of product to do so, and his neck gave way to a pair of the broadest shoulders Charlie had ever seen.
Fuck.
After his tumultuous teenage years, Charlie Spring is content leading a quiet life as an English teacher at Truham Grammar School. But when he meets the new PE teacher, Nick Nelson, Charlie's world is quickly turned upside down, and he finds he's all too willing to let it happen.

Summary
Charlie and Nick grew up a few towns away from each other and meet in their thirties….during the events leading up to their brothers’ wedding. To each other. That’s right - Hello Dolly!
The focus of this story is the relationship between Nick and Charlie, but I try to treat the Dolly relationship respectfully (even when Nick and Charlie do not).

Summary
This fic is on Hiatus, til further notice sry
Sure, he’s not looking for love, but is respect too much to ask for?
Apparently so, Charlie thinks as he continues to scroll through his messages. He sighs and almost decides to give up on Grindr for the night and switch over to his group chat with his friends. He clicks over to the browse tab again – one last time – and sees someone he definitely hadn’t seen a minute ago.
Nick, 23
----------------------------------------------------------------
Face the world again, firm and courageous.
Then all your troubles will fade from your memory
like floods that are past and remembered no more
Your life will be brighter than sunshine at noon
and life's darkest hours will shine like the dawn
(Good News Translation, Job 11:15-17)I am not at all religious and neither is this story. But I do believe that sometimes we can find a light in the most abysmal places and we can be that light for someone currently shrouded in darkness.
This is a story about the light.

Just a Touch (You and I and Nobody Else) by BeezusRed for Thisismeht, GalacticHare1, Ashlett

12 Oct 2023
Tags
Summary
Before there was Nick and Charlie, there was Nick and there was Charlie.
They never had form together, never inspired growth in each other during high school, and beyond knowing of each other at school, never really interacted... until they meet in college.
(Hits, or will hit, some of the major beats from the series, may turn explicitly physical, flashbacks will happen to Ben, I've never written fan fiction before or posted anything like this... Here goes nothing...)
Also, I'm from the US, so I'm winging it with some of the English school stuff... I can only research so much.

Summary
“What was Nick’s last name?” Oliver asks.
Charlie nearly chokes on a sip of his drink. “Sorry, what?”
“Nick. Your Nick. What was his last name?”
“Nelson. Why?”
“My form teacher’s name is Mr. Nelson. I think he’s new this year.”
For a moment, Charlie’s brain halts to a complete stop. He hasn’t talked to Nick Nelson in three years. Hasn’t thought about him in almost as long. It can't be the same Nelson. But what if it is?
OR
Nick and Charlie broke up at the start of Charlie's first year of uni. Unplanned circumstances brought Nick back home to Truham, where he's starting his first teaching job at his old school. When he gets his class lists, Nick is surprised to see Oliver Spring's name in his form group. As if the first year of teaching isn't stressful enough! Meanwhile, Charlie is shocked to hear that Nick is back in town and teaching his younger brother. But what's gone is gone. Charlie can't have Nick back in his life, even as a friend. Especially not when Charlie's too terrified to step even one foot outside of his flat. He can't need Nick Nelson again. But what if Nick needs him?

Summary
A Summary:
Our beloved Heartstopper protagonists, Nick & Charlie, mostly true to the original characters, but their story with an AU first meeting. This is a happy, fluffy love story with some necessary angst for plot, but no trauma or deaths are expected, and a happy ending is guaranteed!A Sample:
"I know what an amazing person you are, Nick. Truly amazing. You’re so kind and generous, and you’re a wonderful friend, and I’ll be here for you whenever you need me. I don’t want to lose touch again, if that’s something you’d want, too.”They looked at each other for a moment until Nick smiled and replied, “Of course, Charlie. Of course, I want to stay in touch. We just found each other again and I don’t plan on letting your friendship go ever again! That’s it, you’re stuck with me.”
“Oh noooo, how terrible. How will I ever cope with having one of my favourite people in my life forever?” Charlie replied cheekily.
* Author's note: This fic was on hiatus from 3.24.2024 - 2.16.2026 and is currently an active WIP again!

The birds and the bees by NicksVault

Summary
Nick Nelson has spent a lot of time thinking about Charlie lately—a lot. It’s only natural, really. After all, they’ve been growing closer, and Nick can’t help but imagine what could happen between them when the time is right. But those thoughts? They’re not exactly innocent.
As if his mind wasn’t already racing, Nick finds himself the subject of several awkward “sex talks”—five, to be exact, and well, they make him think if he can’t just skip being a horny teenager.
Or 5 times someone talks Nick about sex and 1 time he talks with Charlie

Sarah Nelson's Perfect Gay Wedding by NicksVault
Fandoms: Heartstopper (TV), Heartstopper (Webcomic)
12 Mar 2025
Tags
Summary
Nick Nelson was living the dream: a fulfilling job, a cozy life in London, and the perfect boyfriend, Charlie Spring. There was just one small problem—he wanted to propose to Charlie, but had absolutely no idea where to begin.
Charlie, fresh out of university and thrilled with his new internship at a prestigious publishing house, couldn’t imagine life getting any better. Between his dream job, his amazing friends, and his devoted boyfriend, Nick, life felt just about perfect.
And then there was Sarah Nelson. A self-proclaimed woman of “simple passions,” Sarah took great joy in three things: watching her boys thrive, diving into a great book, and orchestrating the most spectacular gay wedding this world would ever see. “And no one,” Sarah declared, her eyes glinting with an intensity that left even Nellie and Henry questioning her sanity, “no one is going to take that dream away from me.”
This story is a continuation of my previous work "The birds and the bees", though it’s not necessary to have read the first part to enjoy this one, yet highly recommend it for a dose of laughs.
