    Summary

    Once the room clears, Nick takes a deep breath. “So, half-term. How have your exams been going?”

    “Can I suck you off?”

    Charlie is patient as Nick does a double-take at his request, staggering back and knocking over a bottle of tequila. He sips his vodka lemonade and waits.

    “What, er—now?!” Nick splutters.

    “Why not?” He’s emboldened now. This loop is quickly becoming hell on earth, but maybe it doesn’t have to be, not all the time. There are no consequences for him in the loop. Anything he does is forgotten the next day. Nick could scream at him, punch him in the nose, do whatever he wants—tomorrow, he’ll still be here, serving him a vodka lemonade with a shy smile. What has he got to lose?

    ------

    Or, when Charlie and Nick meet over the Christmas holidays before they sit next to each other in form and find they have more in common than either of them thought.

    Summary

    “What in the world are you doing?”

    Her arm was still extended. “Giving you an out. Because it’s New Year’s Eve, and we’re lonely-together people, and you want a party, and I want to change my mind.” She looked at him meaningfully, then nodded toward her hand. “So are you going to take it or not?”

    Two years pass, and Félix finds himself stuck and bored out of his mind at a New Year's party. Fortunately, he finds someone who can get him out. And give him more than he bargained for.

His failure as Cat Noir to procure the Ladybug miraculous has caused him to be relegated to busy work - both for Hawkmoth and the Gabriel™ brand. He is finally settling into a life co-managing his father’s spin-off lifestyle brand with his cousin Felix, and he has convinced himself he can live with this. That is, until someone he hasn’t seen in two years walks into his bar - his ex-girlfriend, Marinette Dupain-Cheng.

    Summary

    As it turns out, the heroes and villains of Paris have one thing in common: Where they get their coffee. Stay tuned for tons of crack, some fluff, and erm...maybe mild angst at some point. Mostly just lots of laughs though.
