Summary:
Charlie Spring (21) broke up with his abusive boyfriend Ben Hope, he's been with since eight years. Yes, they were together for eight years. Charlie finally realized that he shouldn't wait for him to come out anymore. And now he's heading back all the way from Oxford to Kent for Christmas.
or
Nick Nelson (22) is on his way from Leeds to Kent. Home. That is what he's been wanting to be, since, well, ever. It's not that Leeds is giving him a rough time or that he doesn't want to be back in Kent. It's just the fact, that he wants someone besides his mum to feel like that.
or
The AU where Nick and Charlie's train gets caught in a snowstorm and the train stops. Nothing works anymore. Not forward, not back. Who would have thought that the random number he typed out of boredom would turn out to be someone sitting on the same train with him?
Notes:
The yellow hearts[💛] are a perspective change to Charlie's POV. The blue[💙]one's to Nick's POV
Enjoy xx
Work Text:
"Good evening dear passengers, due to the snowstorm I unfortunately have to inform you that we have to stop and will spend the night to the December 23rd on the train on the way to Kent," I let out a sigh. Annoyed, I pull my knees up and bury my face in them. Then I do the only thing I can. I call my sister. Tori.
"Charlie. What's up? Where do I have to pick you up?"
"Nowhere. My train is stucked because of the snowstorm. I'll have to sleep in this train tonight. I'll tell you, if our train starts to ride again."
"Okay. Bye," I hear her sipping and then she hangs up. How fucked up this day is. As if it wasn't enough, what I had to deal with this week. On Wednesday, I broke up with my long-time boyfriend. He always said that he'd come out but he never did. I wish I had broken off things, sooner. I put my phone away and start to write a bit. Funny enough, I start a new story. About a couple, that meets in a stucked train.
Three hours later...
My phone buzzes and I take it out of my pocket.
