Summary
Nick thinks the pain in his side is nothing—until it isn’t. After a scary hospital trip, Charlie is right there by his side, holding his hand through it all. Because that’s what love looks like.

“Charlie,” Nick says, voice small. “I—I think it’s still inside you.”
Or:
This was definitely not how their first time was supposed to go. But maybe, just maybe, they’ll laugh about it one day. -

Summary
“For example, did you know that water-based lube is best to use because it’s safe with condoms and doesn’t irritate the skin?”
Nick’s jaw dropped. “Mum, stop!”
Or: The one where Nick and Charlie have “The Talk” with their parents and later with each other.

Summary
“He told me I was special,” Henry continued, his gaze fixed on the sheets. “That he cared about me. And I—God, I was so naive. I thought… I thought he wanted to be with me. But he said I had to prove that I loved him. That if I didn’t, it meant I didn’t care about him enough.”
Or: After a quiet moment in bed, Alex and Henry share stories about their first times—some awkward, some sweet, and some harder to tell.

Summary
“The human body really has a knack for remembering things. That is why you never really forget how to swim, or how to ride a bike. That is also why, sometimes, in the middle of the night, I still roll over in my bed – only to realise that you are no longer there.”
It hurts every day, the absence of someone who was once there; the worst part is, no one even knows how close Even is to drowning...

Summary
At Isak's first ever Pride, he loses track of Eskild in the crowd but instead meets a beautiful stranger who won’t tell him his name. With him everything is bright; the rainbow-colored balloons, the midsummer sun rising at 2:30 am, the guy’s fjord-blue eyes. The flare in the photos he snaps of Isak throughout the night.
∙
Or, Isak and Even spend a night together in the streets of Oslo, getting lost in each other.- Written for the 2021 SKAM Big Bang -

Summary
”It’s ironic isn’t it? I broke your heart and now mine is not working,” Isak continued.
“Isak…”
Even fought against the lump in his throat and the tears that burned behind his eyes.
Isak laughed unhappily, his face void of emotions.
“It kind of feels like karma, you know?” he said.
“Don’t” Even pleaded. “Don’t say things like that.”
About love, friendship, and forgiveness. About moving on and letting go. About making amends and forgiving yourself.
