The Love We Make by Noangel1983 for Escapingnarnia
Fandoms: Heartstopper (TV), Heartstopper (Webcomic)
20 Feb 2026
Tags
Summary
Set between chapters six and seven of The Rules We Fake. One year after the real proposal, Olly and David are no longer pretending. Over three days together, as actual fiancés with nothing left to fake, they settle into what it really means to choose each other, again.
Okay, that summary sounds a bit dramatic. It’s not, I swear. 🤭 We’re just joining Olly and David one year later for a lot of fluff, a lot of smut… and a couple of overdue conversations.
The fic could probably work as a standalone, but reading The Rules We Fake first will definitely offer a better experience.

Summary
A doctor steps in and blocks his way. “Sir, you can’t go in there!”
“No, no, no,” says Charlie, “you don’t understand—”
“Are you family?”
“No, but—”
“Family only,” he informs him sternly, disappearing behind the glass door. The doctor joins the throng of medical personnel surrounding the man’s body, and when they wheel the gurney out of sight, Charlie staggers back from the glass wall like he’s been punched.
Shock and helplessness coalesce within him. Inexplicably, he finds himself laughing, his trembling fingers lifting to his lips to contain the mirthless giggles that spill forth. “Oh, God,” he whispers. “I was going to marry that man.”
The nurse at the desk drops her jaw. “Oh, luv.”

Summary
Nick and Charlie have been dating for four years, and their relationship with intimacy has seen such a beautiful progression over that time. The trust and care and pure love they have for each other makes their intimate moments all the more special, more fulfilling. Charlie was so glad when they took that step together as teenagers, comfortable to try new things and communicate what feels good, and simply be close in a brand new way. Now, it’s a completely natural part of their lives.
Having sex with Nick is lovely. But there’s still something about making out that sends Charlie reeling.

Summary
Once the room clears, Nick takes a deep breath. “So, half-term. How have your exams been going?”
“Can I suck you off?”
Charlie is patient as Nick does a double-take at his request, staggering back and knocking over a bottle of tequila. He sips his vodka lemonade and waits.
“What, er—now?!” Nick splutters.
“Why not?” He’s emboldened now. This loop is quickly becoming hell on earth, but maybe it doesn’t have to be, not all the time. There are no consequences for him in the loop. Anything he does is forgotten the next day. Nick could scream at him, punch him in the nose, do whatever he wants—tomorrow, he’ll still be here, serving him a vodka lemonade with a shy smile. What has he got to lose?

Summary
“God, he looks fucking incredible. Charlie usually kept his hair short, but now it’s cropped even shorter on the sides, with longer curls at the top. He’s wearing a loose vest that proudly shows off his binder and there’s a definite path of hair trailing down into the waistband of his jeans that wasn’t always there. His top rides up as his arms are lifted in a V-shape, stretching out a huge flag behind him. Blue and Pink and White. It’s beautiful. He’s so fucking beautiful.
His caption is a simple message: charlie (he/him)
Well, there’s not a single doubt in my mind now. I’m definitely bisexual.”
“Charlie Spring is a boy.
He’s always been a boy.
He was my first boyfriend.”
OR: Trans Charlie AU where Nick and Charlie date in school before Charlie’s transition. Charlie breaks up with Nick. Eleven months later, Nick sees Charlie’s coming out post on Insta and reaches out.

Summary
“Ni-ick!” Charlie exclaimed through exasperated laughter. “No s-word, please. I’m so glad you called. I’m just… surprised. It’s a bit strange to hear your voice after spending 70 days trying to imagine it.”
“You’ve counted the days since we met?” Nick asked with unconcealed awe in his voice. This was so endearing, and just so Charlie that it made his heart soar with affection.
Caught off guard, Charlie let out an embarrassed chuckle before regrouping quickly:
“I didn’t need to,” he denied with levity. “My brain’s a calculator. It can’t be stopped. It’s both a blessing and a curse…”
💬💬
The summer after his first year in Leeds, Nick meets Charlie on the University meeting-up App. One problem: while Nick thinks they’re flirting, Charlie believes that Nick only wants to be his friend.
This is a friends to enemies to lovers with a sprinkle of misunderstandings, late-night phone calls and New Year’s countdowns 🎉

Summary
“But you got me thinking last night,” says Nick. “I couldn’t stand that you thought I just wanted to throw you a—a—”
“Pity fuck?” Charlie smirks over his tea.
Nick shakes his head and digs into his own pastry. “Yes, that. You’ve been waiting all these years to meet someone who makes you feel safe and loved. And God, Charlie, you’re my best friend. Of course I want you to have that experience for your first time. So many people’s first times are utter shit. Mine was utter shit. I’d be an awful friend if I didn’t want you to have the best possible experience.”
Charlie has no idea where he’s going with this.
“So,” Nick says, a little nervous, “if you don’t want the first experience to be with me, then as your best friend, I feel it is my duty to help you find the person it will be with. If you want.”

Summary
After another disappointing relationship fizzles out before it starts, Charlie Spring finds himself wanting to reconnect with one of his former best friends (and on again off again crush), Nick Nelson. But how do you get back in touch with a person who drunkenly confessed his feelings to you, whose heart you broke in the process, and who you haven't spoken to in years?
___Or, the one where guidance counselor Charlie finally realizes hot carpenter Nick has loved him for years, and has to convince him to give him one more chance before it's too late.
___
This fic has inspired a sister story, told from Nick's POV: Remember Me.
If you enjoy this one, join me over there! It's not a straight re-telling; it's a standalone story that focuses on Nick's perspective and fills in some of the gaps from this one.Thanks to AO3 user KariCl569 for pointing me toward the song "The Promise" by Tracy Chapman. It's beautiful and so fitting.

Summary
Nick Nelson is doing so much better. He's got a good job as the Head Carpenter at Habitat for Humanity in Philadelphia, has good friends, and has navigated his way through a rough couple of years only to emerge a stronger, more self-assured, and passionate version of himself. But then he gets a message from Charlie Spring. Yeah, that Charlie Spring. His former best friend. The first person he ever loved. The person he drunkenly confessed his feelings to in a move so chaotic that Charlie hasn't spoken to him since. Can this new and improved version of Nick find a way to be friends with Charlie again without getting his heart broken for a second time?

A song that really feels like it hits the notes of this story is Ivy by Frank Ocean. Take a listen to get into the mood.
