    Summary

    "I know it's...it's such a problematic thing for me to say. I'm so sorry."

    Charlie's voice is thick with tears.

    And...okay, now Nick is really lost.

    "Um...sorry, what do you mean by that?" Nick asks gently.

    Charlie covers his face with both hands. His shoulders are shaking.

    "It's biphobic," he chokes out.

    (OR: Charlie has been nervous about a new 'first'. Nick tries to find out the real reason why. Communication, consent, angst, fluff and smut. Yep, we're tackling it all, folks!)

    Summary

    14 years later, half his entire life so far, Charlie was pretty sure that Nick was really going to be his one and only, his soulmate.

    They were still so ridiculously in love, just about all of the time. Everyone seemed to be waiting for the honeymoon teenager phase to end, but it never felt like it did. They still kissed in stupid risky places, needed to be near each other all the time, always making sure to constantly stay in each other’s orbits.

    Even for two people who spent the last 5 years living together, the romance and happiness of it all had yet to actually wear off. Knowing he was going home with Nick tonight, still made him blush a bright shade of red, excitement running through him at the prospect of sleeping next to the man he loved more than anyone else.

    (Or, things are great between Charlie & Nick until something from Charlie’s past rears its ugly head and brings up a lot of other long buried things with it.)

    Nick and Charlie break up during Nick’s first year of university, this is the story of them finding their way back to each other.
