Summary
After losing his husband four years ago, Charlie Spring has worked hard to build a comfortable new life for himself: two adorable dogs, a cozy cabin in his hometown, and a rewarding job archiving the works of local gay poet Finn Bryson. But when a film company decides to adapt Bryson's life into a movie, Charlie is hired to help prepare the lead actor. Nick Nelson is a stunningly handsome, wildly popular film star—but as far as Charlie can tell, he's also a world-class snob.
AU with fluff, flirting, karaoke, hayrides, Taco Bell, and a lot of bad disguises.
Also some angst! But always a happy ending.**Complete at Chapter 36, anything beyond is a deleted scene**

Summary
Charlie Spring is not happy with his mother at the moment. Seriously, what kind of parent signs up to house a foreign exchange student without consulting their own children first? More importantly, what kind of foreign exchange student chooses Texas? Out of all the states! This is going to be an absolute nightmare.
˗ˋˏ OR ˎˊ˗
An alternate universe where Charlie Spring’s family is hosting an exchange student from the UK named Nick Nelson. It doesn’t take long for Charlie to become completely infatuated with this sexy brit, but there’s a big problem: He’s completely straight and completely taken.
Or is he?
This is half a romanticization of High School in the liberal area of Texas that I grew up in, and the other half two boys falling in love against the odds. Enjoy (please)!

Summary
“Nick’s rejection gave Charlie such whiplash that he was too shocked to cry at first. But now, he can’t help the tears. Gravity makes them fall into his ears. Charlie doesn’t mind. That way, he can listen to the deafening sound of his misery.
The worst thing is—this isn’t the first time it has happened. This has been going on for weeks now, even if he didn’t want to believe it. Every time he tries to initiate intimacy, Nick finds a way to hedge. Charlie has been blinding himself. He’s become addicted to the stars, and he has squeezed his eyes for too long just to see them.
They have been married for two years, he isn’t even thirty yet, and that's already it. Nick doesn’t want to have sex with Charlie any more.”
___When Charlie notices that his husband is reluctant to be intimate with him, he makes it a mission to discover why. Is Nick not attracted to him any more? Is he repulsed by the scars that a car accident left on him three months ago? Or is there another reason?

Summary
“Ni-ick!” Charlie exclaimed through exasperated laughter. “No s-word, please. I’m so glad you called. I’m just… surprised. It’s a bit strange to hear your voice after spending 70 days trying to imagine it.”
“You’ve counted the days since we met?” Nick asked with unconcealed awe in his voice. This was so endearing, and just so Charlie that it made his heart soar with affection.
Caught off guard, Charlie let out an embarrassed chuckle before regrouping quickly:
“I didn’t need to,” he denied with levity. “My brain’s a calculator. It can’t be stopped. It’s both a blessing and a curse…”
💬💬
The summer after his first year in Leeds, Nick meets Charlie on the University meeting-up App. One problem: while Nick thinks they’re flirting, Charlie believes that Nick only wants to be his friend.
This is a friends to enemies to lovers with a sprinkle of misunderstandings, late-night phone calls and New Year’s countdowns 🎉
