Summary
“How long has this been here?” Shane asked.
Ilya frowned. “What?”
“This,” Shane said, pressing gently.
Ilya flinched, more surprised than hurt. He twisted awkwardly, reaching back, fingers searching. “I don’t feel anything.”
“You don’t feel that?” Shane asked. His voice sounded wrong to his own ears.
Ilya sighed, irritation creeping in. “You’re poking me. Of course I feel that.”
“Ilya.”
“It’s probably nothing,” Ilya said, already pulling away, sitting up. “Muscle knot. I don’t know.”
Or,
Ilya is used to surviving alone. Shane won’t let him. When illness forces their lives to change overnight, they learn what marriage really means. Not in vows, but in the relentless decision to stay.- Language:

Summary
This may not sounds like a happy story— but we don't believe in sad endings around here. This is a beautifully happy story born from tragedy, the way real life often is.
This fic is an alternate ending (major character death) to Built to Break. It begins in Chapter 18, in the OR, when surgeons discover Shane’s Ewing sarcoma cannot be fully removed. Clean margins aren’t possible, and the goal shifts from cure to comfort. If you’ve read Built to Break, you can start at Chapter 18. It also works as a standalone—though rereading from Chapter 1, knowing how it ends, might hit a little harder in the gut.
What follows is the story of his final year— intentional, painful, and deeply beautiful—and the love that carries him through it. But this story does not end when Shane does. It continues through the aftermath: the firsts, the grief, the anger, and the slow, stubborn choice to keep living a life he would be proud of. It’s about chosen family, about carrying someone forward, and about believing that love doesn’t end here on earth.

Ilya died, yes, but then the doctors saved him. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation in the ambulance, three electric shocks, two emergency surgeries, twenty-six units of blood. Ilya died, but then he came back.
If only Shane could get his subconscious to understand that.

Or Shane and Ilya are granted an opportunity to come out on their own terms. Sort of. And in they do it in a very Ilya way. (Surprisingly, it is Shane’s idea)

Summary
Nick’s head ducks a little and he’s clearly remembering last year, when Charlie had been outed as gay to the entire school. When a bunch of year twelve rugby lads had bullied him into an attempted suicide. But Nick had never said one bad thing about him. As a rule, Charlie stayed far away from jocks, but even though they had never spoken, Nick had never seemed to be like the rest.
His eyes were kind.

Summary
Nick Nelson was just the boy in the year above — rugby captain, quiet smile, never spoke to Charlie Spring. Until he went missing. The fifth teen to vanish in three months. And when Nick is finally found, scared and silent and entirely different, Charlie realizes their story is only beginning. They were strangers. Now, they’re trying to rebuild something neither of them has ever had: safety. Trust. Maybe even love.

Summary
Queer Intentions had gathered a lot of attention and fame over the last year, and now with their first EP out and charting and a tour starting in a few weeks, it would only get worse. Charlie already had a pretty love/hate relationship with the whole thing. He was happy to be a drummer, and playing live was amazing, but people were invasive and loud and wanted a lot from him all the time.
That included fans, the record label, all his new managers and assistants, and a million other people.
“How long till I see you?” Charlie asked, despite knowing the exact countdown of days left in his head. Nick would be coming to him in 12 long days and then he’d have 4 weeks of Nick on tour with them. He wanted a change of subject, not to be reminded of what his life was going to be like very soon.
“12 long, long days,” Nick sighed. “And trust me, I’m ready to tell everyone to screw it and head down there right now,” he grumbled.

Summary
The Tokyo Olympics are over. Nick has left France for the UK, where he will rejoin the British gymnastics team in his pursuit of the 2024 Olympics. Charlie is well on the road to recovery from the ill-timed knee injury that dashed his 2020 Olympic hopes, and is now once again training alongside his best friend. Oh, and they're boyfriends now!
Nick and Charlie may finally be ready to be together, but is the rest of the gymnastics world? Can they have their happily-ever-after and make their Olympic dreams come true, or will they have to choose?
This fic will make no sense unless you've read part 1!

Rugby Sweater Weather by scienceisrealyo
Fandoms: Heartstopper (Webcomic), Heartstopper (TV)
02 Feb 2026
Tags
Summary
Charlie Spring has been a physical therapist for the Leeds Badgers professional rugby team for two years. At the start of his third season, Nick Nelson is traded to the Badgers and both Nick and Charlie's worlds are turned upside down.
Here it is, the Heartstopper x Sweater Weather crossover nobody but me clamored for! You do not need to read SW to read this fic. However, if you HAVEN'T read lumosinlove’s Sweater Weather (and Coast to Coast, and, well, everything), you absolutely should, because it is a remarkable piece of writing (as well as its own standalone AU).
There will be parallels and divergences from both Heartstopper and Sweater Weather in this story.
Do I know a ton about rugby? Nope! Do I live in England? I sure don't. Will I get a lot of things just wrong enough to be annoying? Definitely! Will there be science facts at the end of each chapter? I can’t help it. Enjoy the ride.

Summary
"Yeah, yeah, give it to me, that's it, spread your legs a bit, there you go."
The camera follows Louis as he does. Maybe if the modelling thing doesn't work out, he could try the porn industry. Then again, he's a bit too stocky to be twinky and a bit too twinky to be anything else. He likes that about himself, though. Well, directors and photographers like that about him. He could pull off pretty and edgy, could do GQ in the morning and a perfume commercial in the afternoon. Right now he thinks he could pull off anything, because it's Harry fucking Styles directing him.
Or, a Top Model AU where Louis is accidentally there to make friends, not become Britain's Next Top Model. (Also Zayn is the supermodel host.)

After watching yet another actor walk away with his Oscar, Louis is on the lookout for the role of a lifetime that might finally get him the one thing he has always wanted. He didn't think coming out of his self-proclaimed break to do another film would be all that difficult, but that was before he met his new co-star.
