Summary
Shane pulls back, carefully cradling Ilya’s face. “Maybe we shouldn’t.”
“You don’t want to?” Ilya’s eyes are bottomless; swimming with grief. He says it like he really means, You don’t want me?
“That isn’t what I mean,” Shane says gently, brushing his thumb over Ilya’s cheekbone. Ilya’s eyes flutter shut, as if being treated so tenderly causes him physical pain. Like he isn’t used to it. “You’re hurting. I don’t want you to regret it in the morning.”
Ilya’s eyes open. “I have never regretted a moment with you.”

Summary
Nick Nelson is surviving, not living. A rugby injury ended his sport, a corporate desk job keeps him comfortable, and the closet keeps him safe. He’s done the math: staying closeted is simpler, safer, less messy.
Then comes the company reorg — and with it, Charlie Spring. Out and proud. Tattooed. Brilliant. Practically the only thing people talk about at work. He’s everything Nick isn’t, and exactly who Nick can’t seem to ignore.
Now stuck working side by side, their bickering turns into sparks neither of them can control. Numbers don’t lie, but feelings? That’s an entirely different equation.
Enemies to lovers. Office drama. Sarcasm, banter, slow burn tension… and a guaranteed happy ending.
**See Chapter 18 onwards for Tumblr-posted images created to illustrate Nick and Charlie in this universe.

Summary
Charlie doesn’t have an issue with Nick being straight. Nick is very sweet and caring, and a great best friend.
The only issue is that Charlie, against his better judgement, is falling in love with him.
or: Nick and Charlie meet as they move into a flatshare. They quickly become best friends and everything is going great, except... Charlie is utterly smitten. And it seems like Nick needs tons of physical affection to thrive. Constantly. Repeatedly. And Charlie is the only person around.
Charlie doesn't mind. That's what friends are for, right?

Summary
Nick Nelson flies to Almeria for a planned family holiday meet up, only to find out that his dad and brother are a few days delayed. Thankfully, at Casa Primavera, they (mostly) give a warm welcome and, despite holidaying solo, Nick finds himself somewhat enamoured by it all; with Spain, with the hotel, and, most of all, with one staff member in particular.
It’s just a shame that summer flings don’t last forever…

Summary
Nick registered legs first—long, lean, muscular. Then the rest of him. He was tall—maybe just a bit shorter than Nick—dressed in a deep navy suit that managed to hug in all the right places. His skin was light olive toned, his cheekbones were maddening, and his hair—Christ, his hair—was thick, black, and curly, like he’d just come from some effortlessly sexy shampoo commercial.
But it was the eyes that did it.
Nick felt his body betray him in real time. His palms went hot. His mouth went dry. Something stirred low in his belly, and fuck, he had to will his dick not to get involved. Because this was not okay. This was a work meeting. This was public. And the man hadn’t even said a word yet.
——-
Welcome to the chaotic office romance, sexual tension, and awkward hilarity that’s been living rent free in my brain for months.After pouring my soul into the angst heavy 'Ben Hopeless', this story is pure self indulgence: think love, fluff, smut, and all the heart eyes in between. I’m not sure how many chapters it’ll end up being. I'm just following the fun wherever it leads.
Also, I made Nick an accountant, because we are cool, thank you very much. Bad rep be damned!

Summary
There is a Year Twelve student sitting at their dining table, waiting for Charlie, a Year Eleven who hasn’t even taken his maths subject yet, to enlighten him on how to perform calculus correctly. Charlie can’t even let out the groan that’s building at the thought, because the other boy is looking at him expectantly, not taking his stupid honey-brown eyes off Charlie’s face.
Not just any Year Twelve.
Nicholas Nelson.
Captain of the school rugby team.
Friends with Harry Greene.
Charlie had started off unenthusiastic about the “peer tutoring” but this … this is a disaster. It may be a catastrophe. Of course, of fucking course, the universe had paired him up with one of the rugby boys. The rugby boy, really.
Could it get any worse than this?
Nick hates maths. Charlie hates tutoring. They just can’t seem to get along.

This was just perfect, start to finish. Enemies to boyfriends but in the absolute sweetest way. Charlie is Nick’s peer tutor in maths. So much pining. All the pining. All the butterflies. I loved it so much.
