Nick saves Charlie in his time of need after meeting in a café... Charlie falls for Nick straight away, unaware that as far as Nick is concerned, he's straight. (contains fluff, smut and all that good stuff)

Nick and Charlies future together after uni. This story is a continuation of my story "Faking It," which is a heartstopper AU. It's not required to read that one first, but I do recommend it for context on certain things. I fell in love with the versions of Nick and Charlie in that story, and I wanted to explore the idea of writing about their future together.

Charlie works in a pub and has done for a few years. He likes things done a certain way, but when Nick starts working there, Charlie becomes irritated by his relaxed approach to the job. Will their strained work relationship turn into something more? Mature story, contains strong language and smut.
