    Summary

    “He’ll be like me!” the little boy says but his voice sounds funny; it’s slow and the words are all jumbled. “Please, Mummy!”

    The little boy’s mummy smiles at him. “You want Mr Spidey to have a wheelchair like you?”

    “Yeah!”

    Huh. What’s a wheelchair? Whatever it is, it must be cool because Charlie’s never seen someone smile like this little boy when his mummy pulls it off the shelf, bending down to show the little boy. The little boy’s dark eyes light up.

    “Thank you, Mummy!”

    ~

    in which charlie sees a toy wheelchair for the first time

    Summary

    Nick is nearly 30 and rugby captain for a professional team in Leeds. He's deeply in the closet due to a lifetime of insecurities about being a queer rugby player. He gets injured at a game, and moves back in with his mum for while he's recovering. Nick has also been studying teaching part time.

    After he's recovered will he be able to go back to rugby? Will he even want to?

    To be completely clear, the total chapter count isn't set. I just put in a random number. There might be more, might be less (there'll probably be more though)

    Summary

    “I also get to keep my eyes firmly in the front of my face. It can get uncomfortable constantly throwing them to the back of my head. Especially when I try so hard to repress the eye rolls! My eyeballs ache by the end of each hour. But, still, I get why discussing this… event is essential.”

    Charlie goes to a scheduled therapy session with his parents. He’s not loving it, but he knows it’s essential for his continued recovery.

    Summary

    A year after saying I do, Nick and Charlie Nelson-Spring have settled into their life as husbands, building a love that is even stronger than before. But as they celebrate their first wedding anniversary in Paris, Charlie reveals a life-changing secret—they’ve been chosen to adopt a baby.

    For Nick, it’s about becoming the kind of father he never had. About proving—to himself, to Charlie, and to their son—that he will never walk away, never let him feel unloved, never let him question his worth.

    For Charlie, it’s about believing in himself—that he can be strong enough, steady enough, good enough to raise a child, despite all the struggles he’s faced in the past.

    Together, they navigate sleepless nights, heartwarming firsts, and the overwhelming, terrifying, breathtaking reality of becoming parents. Through it all, they hold onto one truth—

    This was meant to be.

    This is forever.

    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.

    Summary

    At first, Nick thought it was nothing. Something falling, maybe a desk collapsing in one of the classrooms, or a dropped textbook echoing too loudly down the hallway. It was sharp and sudden, and it made everyone around him flinch.
    Then it happened again. Louder.
    And then came the scream.
    When a shooter targets Truham Grammar School, chaos ripples through its halls, leaving no one untouched. From Nick, desperate to find Charlie amidst the panic, to Sarah Nelson and Jane Spring, grappling with the unimaginable as mothers, to Tao, Charlie, and others fighting to survive in their own corners of the school.
    In the face of terror, everyone has a story. And no one will leave unchanged.

    Or an exploration of pain, death and the aftermath of a traumatic experience.

    Summary

    This is part of a collection of 1k word prompt fics. The prompt in this case:
    A - I'm going to do the thing
    B - That's probably a bad idea
    A - does the thing
    B - Holy shit.

    This is basically about Charlie blindsiding Julio with a request for him to a sign a permission form to play rugby. Because why would Julio have ever expected Charlie to want to play rugby?
