Summary
Charlie didn’t plan to fall for him.
He definitely didn’t plan to fall for Nick Nelson, guitarist for Swanborn, when his own struggling rock band gets invited on tour with the indie darlings. Nick’s pure walking trouble in a Northern flat cap, with a crooked smile that gets under Charlie’s skin faster than he can shut it down.
They’re on tour together for eight weeks. Shared stages, buses, changing rooms and glances that linger too long. Charlie tells himself it’s just physical, just flirting, just another distraction in the long line of flings he entertains himself with on the road. But under that brooding bad-boy facade, Nick watches Charlie like he matters. And for Charlie, that’s a whole lot of dangerous.
Now they’re stuck on the same bus, in the same cities, circling each other with heat and hurt crackling destructively between them. Charlie wants to hate Nick. But some people just get under your skin and fucking stay there.

Summary
Charlie is a talented journalist struggling to be taken seriously in a workplace that consistently takes him for granted, while Nick, charming and guarded, carries the quiet weight of responsibilities he never asked for. When a high-profile assignment arises, resentment sparks and tempers flare, forcing them into close proximity neither is prepared for.
Outside of work, Charlie finds himself drawn into late-night gaming sessions with a soft hearted stranger who offers easy laughter and unexpected comfort, while Nick begins discovering new sides himself thanks to his sharp-witted, kind gaming companion. As professional frustrations mount and personal lives press in from all sides, unspoken tensions and blurred boundaries begin to surface. Set between office politics, digital escapes, and moments of vulnerability, this is a slow-burn story about misjudgment, longing, and the complicated ways people learn to see one another.

Summary
Nick’s a primary school teacher with a dependable routine, a cupboard full of mismatched mugs, and a tendency to carry the weight of other people’s feelings. He isn’t looking for anything new—definitely not a florist tucked between a laundromat and a textiles store, with sleepy cats in the window and soft music drifting through the door.
But the shop is warm. Quiet. A little overgrown. And the boy behind the counter has ink on his skin, dimples that appear when he smiles, and a silence that says more than words could. Charlie doesn’t speak, not out loud- but he writes labels like they’re tiny poems and arranges flowers like they mean something, if you know how to look. Nick keeps finding reasons to go back. For the bouquets, sure. But also for the stillness. For the boy with the dandelion behind his ear.
Nick doesn’t know what he’s looking for. But every time he sees Charlie, something about him lingers- like petals pressed between pages, like soft scent on fingers, like the way you carry someone in your thoughts long after they’ve gone.
What are you supposed to do when someone makes you feel like spring is coming back, one petal at a time?
