Summary
“So, maybe to get Liam off your back I could pretend to be your boyfriend? Just for a few weeks, and in return you could help me study for my upcoming English exam,”
Nick prepares himself to be told off, but surprisingly, Charlie nods. “That… that could work.”
"Yeah?"
“Yeah. But,” He pokes a finger into his chest, his hard expression returned. “Let me get one thing straight. I don’t need you to ‘save me’, I’m very capable of holding my own. I’m only agreeing because you’re offering,”
Ah, there's the Charlie he knows.
Nick bites back the smile that tugs on his lips. He's much more excited about this than he should be.
---
OR: Nick and Charlie aren't very fond of each other, to say the least, but when circumstances pull them together, it's hard to ignore the undeniable spark between them.

Loving You is an Oxymoron by tiredauthor

Summary
Liking Nick Nelson felt like an oxymoron.
He brings easy smiles and soft touches. Everything about him was warm. The way he looks at you like he brought you the summer breeze and his touch felt like a comforting brush of the sun’s rays. It’s not hard to catch feelings for the Gryffindor Quidditch star player, but falling for Nick Nelson felt effortless for Charlie.
Yet he also found liking him to be far more difficult than any type of studying he’s doing for his OWLs. Slytherin and Gryffindor students were never meant to be friends, much less in a romantic relationship.

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?
