Summary
It hurts like absolute hell, knowing that she has spent at least a decade loving someone who could never love her back. Knowing that she has spent long, drunken nights alone in her apartment wondering when the hell everything would fall back into place. Knowing that she is going to have to travel home alone and come to terms with the fact that the future she thought she had all figured out is actually never going to come to fruition.

Summary
Alexis is coming back to visit Schitt’s Creek for the first time since she moved away, and David has spent the past week readying the already-pristine house and guest room for her arrival. Of course they’ve facetimed and talked a lot in the space between, but now she’s so busy and extremely successful that David is lucky if he catches her on the phone more than once a week.
Which is obviously what brought him to the whole not-drinking-all-day thing. The absolute last thing he needs right now is another oopsy daisy.

Stevie cackles to herself as David slowly types in the number, using his index finger like an 80 year old man trying to text on his iphone 4 that holds charge for approximately ten minutes. Finally, the store’s contact name pops up...
or
David leaves the store to get lunch and ends up getting high with Stevie behind the motel. Together they come up with the bright idea to prank call the Apothecary.

Summary
“Look at this one - Furnished flat to rent in Victorian conversion. 2 beds 1 bath. Quiet street in Vauxhall. Available immediately. Oh wow, the rent’s really reasonable too. I wonder what the catch is?”
“There's the catch.” Nick leaned across the table and stabbed at the paper with his index finger. He’d read that listing on the tube earlier. “Professional couples only.”
“For fucks sake, why?!” Charlie groaned loudly, slumping back onto the cafe table in despair. “Why does this keep happening to me?!”
“Hey now, it can’t be that bad? Don't you have any homeless friends you can pretend to be in a couple with? I'm sure someone would…. What? Why are you looking at me like that?”
*****
Fed up of house hunting, passing acquaintances Nick and Charlie pretend to be a couple in order to rent a flat. What could possibly go wrong?!

Summary
31 year old Nick Nelson retired from professional rugby and is giving Sarah Nelson a well-deserved year off from running Lavender Fields Bed and Breakfast. And Nick’s doing fine, thank you very much. Until the guest name C. Spring changes everything.
Note: 1-31 are the original story (Nick's point of view). Chapters 32 - 60 are from when Charlie bullied me into providing his perspective, too.
