    Summary

    "He’s married. It actually happened. Nick is married. To Charlie. Who is both an absolute menace and the best thing that’s ever happened to him, all rolled into one. Running through their group of friends towards the vintage Rolls Royce limousine they hired feels surreal. Charlie’s hand in his, everyone laughing and shouting congratulations at them.

    Then, Darcy’s voice, the loudest of all: “Go consummate that marriage!”

    Charlie gives him a smirk and a quick double-hand-squeeze that surely means ‘we are so going to consummate this marriage’ and suddenly Nick cannot get into the car fast enough."

     

    Our favorite sappy, simpy, horny Nick Nelson finally gets Charlie alone on their wedding night, after Charlie has spent all day flustering him with sexy photos. Spoiler alert: they have sex.

    Sequel to my fic The Wedding Gift
    Can be read as a stand-alone. But I encourage you to read the first part if you want to get the full picture (pun intended) of Nick's eagerness.

    Summary

    “I think Charlie is the most beautiful person in the whole world.”

    Charlie felt his face heat up. Sarah beamed. “I should hope so. He is your boyfriend after all.”

    “What?” Nick yelped.

    ***

    Nick is somehow even more of a sap when he's waking up from anesthesia, and he can't believe Charlie's actually his.
