    Summary

    A dead man is found in the library of Kent House, family home of the Spring family.
    It turns out that a lot of people from the village had a reason to kill the victim.
    Having been transferred for disciplinary reasons to the countryside four months prior, this murder case is Inspector Nelson's chance to redeem himself. However, not only a lot of lies are making his investigation very difficult, but also his curious fascination with the eldest Spring son Charlie, who, unfortunately, soon turns out to be one of the main suspects.

    Summary

    The warehouse job may have been fairly brainless work, but it was enough money for Nick to afford his independence. The truth was, he felt completely fine. And if people assumed him to be an alpha, well, he didn’t like it, but at least no one was questioning him.

    Nick would be lying if he said he wasn’t curious about the new bloke. He told himself that he was just impressed by the smaller alpha’s strength, despite his lean physique. Nick believed he was being subtle with his looks, but apparently, not quite subtle enough.

    “You got the hots for me or something, Alpha?"

    Summary

    Paris, 2024. The Summer Olympic Games. Thousands of athletes, each from different walks of life, united by a common objective: bring home the gold for their country.

    Charlie Spring never thought he would be performing on such a large stage, even though he's one of the fastest sprinters Team Great Britain has to offer. Now that he's made it to Paris, though, he's determined to prove to the world (and himself) that he deserves to be competing among the best of the best.

    He just can't let himself be distracted by the young star of his nation's rugby team, who befriends him after their paths cross on Charlie's first evening in the Olympic Village (and who he totally does not have a crush on).

    Summary

    Charlie Spring is training for the Edinburgh marathon to raise money for his old inpatient unit when he comes across a handsome personal trainer in the form of Nick Nelson. When Nick agrees to help Charlie with his conditioning training, how long will it be before, he offers a little more than PT services.... Not long. The answer is not long.

    Much outrageous flirting, some Nick being completely deer in the headlights, and quite a good deal of spice!

    "He jogs lightly onward to the next bench down the path, as he does his eye is drawn somewhat to the auburn haired instructor currently, shouting out warmly encouraging words of affirmation to his doting clientele. Who could blame them really. His broad chest strains against the taught dark grey fabric of his vest and as he reaches back behind his head demonstrating the perfect triceps stretch, Charlie has to swallow down a rising tide of impure thoughts at the site of those arms. Focus, Charlie..."

    Summary

    Charlie has graduated from the Royal Veterinary College. Now that he’s newly graduated, he’s hoping to gain further experience at a clinic in London. A nice, clean, modern clinic where he would see a variety of small, well behaved pets.

    Instead, he finds out he is going to the Yorkshire Dales to assist a regional vet during the lambing season.

    Charlie is less than thrilled and is determined to hate it. Wouldn't you know it though-there is a ginger farmer on the local Nelson farm who finds the stubborn, grumpy vet quite intriguing.

    Summary

    Before there was Nick and Charlie, there was Nick and there was Charlie.

    They never had form together, never inspired growth in each other during high school, and beyond knowing of each other at school, never really interacted... until they meet in college.

    (Hits, or will hit, some of the major beats from the series, may turn explicitly physical, flashbacks will happen to Ben, I've never written fan fiction before or posted anything like this... Here goes nothing...)

    Also, I'm from the US, so I'm winging it with some of the English school stuff... I can only research so much.

    Summary

    “You should go see David Nelson.”

    “Sorry?” I say, trying very hard to keep some semblance of composure.

    “Dr Nelson? He does economic history. You should email him, set up a meeting, ask him what you should read.”

    “Oh, yes, sure! I’ll erm… I’ll send him an email when we’re done,” I say, trying to seem like the prospect isn’t far more exciting than it should be. An hour spent with the hottest faculty member in the Department? Yes, please!

    Or: Oliver Spring is a PhD student and he has a bit of a thing for Dr David Nelson. What harm could one term shadowing David’s module do? Prepare for a smut-heavy slow burn, angst, fluff and a healthy dose of academia (I understand if that's not your flavour of kink).

    Story is 80% written and 100% planned in advance. Planned posting schedule: twice a week. Chapter lengths: 2-5K words.

    Summary

    “Well, I'm sure you can get those experiences pretty easily. Once you’re ready for them.”

    Nick’s breath hitches. “Are you…” he clears his throat. “Are you offering?”

    Blood rushes through Charlie’s head. “I just meant, well I mean look at you, and I thought…” Charlie takes a deep breath, and looks up at Nick. He looks… hopeful? “I'm not not offering, I guess. For scientific purposes.”

    Or, Charlie's perfectly fine being just Nick's friend with benefits. (He's not). (Good thing Nick's not either)

    Summary

    This fic is on Hiatus, til further notice sry

    Sure, he’s not looking for love, but is respect too much to ask for?

    Apparently so, Charlie thinks as he continues to scroll through his messages. He sighs and almost decides to give up on Grindr for the night and switch over to his group chat with his friends. He clicks over to the browse tab again – one last time – and sees someone he definitely hadn’t seen a minute ago.

     

    Nick, 23

     

    ----------------------------------------------------------------
    Face the world again, firm and courageous.
    Then all your troubles will fade from your memory
    like floods that are past and remembered no more
    Your life will be brighter than sunshine at noon
    and life's darkest hours will shine like the dawn

    (Good News Translation, Job 11:15-17)

    I am not at all religious and neither is this story. But I do believe that sometimes we can find a light in the most abysmal places and we can be that light for someone currently shrouded in darkness.

    This is a story about the light.

    Summary

    Bracing himself for the arrival at Embankment Underground Station, he waited for the tube to slow down before getting up from his seat and stepping off, his hip reminding him once more of the fact that he was ageing continuously.

    He hadn’t walked two steps when the tannoy started blaring.

    “Mind the Gap”

    Confusion flitted across his face momentarily before realisation hit him hard. It wasn’t his husband’s voice making the announcement. It had been replaced with someone, something else.

    OR:

    Nick was the voice of the London Underground announcement and Charlie keeps returning to the same station over and over to listen to his husband talk, but one day, the voice is gone. Will it return?

    Summary

    If you are familiar with the story of Cyrano de Bergerac this may ring a bell.

     

    Charlie Spring had been friends with Nick Nelson for 11 months, 19 days, and 6 hours.
    Charlie Spring had been in love with Nick Nelson for 11 months, 19 days, 5 hours and approximately… 50 minutes.
    He was a lost cause. He couldn’t help it, Nick was just so bloody perfect. Irritatingly so, in fact. A great and regular source of disappointment for Charlie was that Nick was also very straight.
    Being friends with the radiant ball of sunshine that was Nick Nelson was better than not knowing him at all though, so he harboured his straight boy crush, love crisis, he let it simmer away in a locked away box in his chest, and became Nick's absolute best friend.
    The bestest of best friends, the worlds best friend you could ever wish for.
