Elena

The tension is real 😳😳

Katie H

I wasn't emotionally prepared for the flashback to Nick's parents fighting 😭 Poor Nick, this isn't good 🥹

Kristyn

Here we gooo

vbarcenes29

He’s so me LIKE GOD U DID IT AGAINNNNNN

Ciara

Oh no!!! Get out of that headspace Nicky boy!

Merel

People crushing on Charlie because he looks hot playing the drums? So real. Nick potentially getting jealous and saying/doing something stupid because he's drunk? No thank you 😬

Nyssa Rawther 🍉

Damn, not him spiralling from TaoElle and flashbacks to his parents and thinking about his own future w Charlie, and then getting the "fuck, my bf is fit as hell and other people know it too" reminder as a one-two punch...take a deep breath, Nick, and go hug Charlie

Zoe

Poor Nick I feel like on top of everything hearing someone fancies Charlie he is getting worried about guys hitting on Charlie when he isn’t around when he goes to uni 😢

CinD

Hopefully drunk Nick gets some water and food in him soon 😅 these emotions are making my stomach swirl I can’t imagine how he’s feeling… while drunk 🥴

Gracie

Now Charlie’s getting hit on 😭

Kela87

So basically we got both Charlie being reassured by drunk Nick that he is faithful even with more alcohol than blood running in his veins AND Nick shitting bricks at the thought of how many people will be interested in Charlie while they're apart. Everything's fine. I AM FINE. 😱

Agosława

Poor Nick, not only does he have a flashback but he's also worrying about his relationship with Charlie and confrontation. Is the fact that other people are attracted to Charlie making him even more anxious? And he's so drunk. I feel the tension in my own body, omg. Hope there is a confrontation because I think it is needed but also that things will be okay eventually.

Lili

WOAHHHH NOOO😭😭😭

KimS

It’s all coming to a head, what with Nick being so drunk and now having memories of his parents fighting. That’s going to access some deep fear and anxiety for him. I can feel his collapse coming through every page of this scene. Poor guy. I’m really curious to see how it comes out though, if Nick will break down or explode or something in between. My heart is breaking for him and I can only hope Charlie’s ready, given all the sign he’s been picking up!

Ulises

Was this guy trying to flirt with Charlie or trying to insult Charlie? 🤨

Jasollie

Things are so bad. Nick just embarrassed himself with his friends, and then walking away to find Charlie, not only does he have flashbacks to his parents fighting (I guess even that relatively mild interaction with Tara, Tao and Elle really triggered sensitive Nick) but then his anxiety about losing Charlie comes up again as he overhears a boy crushing on Charlie. And he’s so drunk, so he’s not able to process all of these events properly so he is going to be even more vulnerable and in a very fragile state by the time he finds Charlie outside. I truly don’t know what’s going to happen, but I know it’s not going to be pleasant. 😭❤️

Jo Mary

Aww Nicky the flashbacks bless him gonna lead to a panic attack needs Charlie’s breathing exercises he use on Tara in season 3 they helped her so much x 🫶🏻🍂🍁 just know they help nick as well put think he needs to talk to someone about his mental health as well so glad Alice is exploring nick’s mental health as well x 🫶🏻

hllwds

this page somehow gives me anxiety 😅

Allegra2346

Reading this page by page each day is the equivalent of watching a car crash on 0.25x speed oh my god. In the best way of course, but please someone get Nick home and into bed with a cool glass of water and a bin 😖

aaronhotchnerswhore

Not the flashbacks.. and then that guy.. this isnt looking good

Chris

I want to hug Nick and if I can’t I want Charlie to do it for me 🥺

Elena

I could imagine, that Nick will say something like: "YES, I'm right here!!" in a very loud, and a bit aggressive voice, because he is way too drunk now, to regulate his emotions properly.

Jasollie

My advice to Nick would be to just get himself immediately home, drink a lot of water and then wake up in the morning and have a good cry about how terrible the night was and acknowledging for himself how terrible he’s been feeling lately. And then share it all with Charlie. Have a hungover cry and snuggle with the best boyfriend and let out all the feelings.

Alexandra B

Haha! the suspense! 😄 have fun Alice ❤️

gaby

oh NOT the flashback this page made me clutch my pearls i'm so serious

Katrina

Uh oh… He is already panicking due to the conversation with Tao and Elle and now he had a flashback of his parents fighting and to top all of it off he heard someone talking about having a crush on Charlie. I bet he is worrying that people are going to hit on Charlie while he is at University. His insecurities are really coming to a head now. He’s also very drunk so I’m willing to bet he’s going to make a huge mistake.

Eileen

Enjoy your day tomorrow :)

Desi23

Charlie Spring with fans it's the best thing that happens in this volume!!! I love that!!!!

Maddy

ALICE, DID YOU JUST TWIST THE KNIFE?! 😭😭😭

Nikki

Feels like dark clouds descending on Nick. Don’t think I’ve ever wanted to give a fictional character a hug more than I do him right now. Also, never get bored of how Alice uses the edges of panels to aid our understanding of the emotional in the scene happening. Such a clever detail.

Steph

This page literally made my stomach sink! Poor Nick. He definitely needs to talk to Charlie about how he is feeling and he also needs to see a therapist to deal with his past trauma. I see this spiraling out of control so fast.

Ann-Marie Still

But of course Charlie is getting a fan base. Nick is gonna start reeling. Too much to drink and the insecurities are gonna kick in big time 😞

Brandy78

Oh Nick 😔Umm, I can’t do this today! 😳

Jacqui Chesterton

Okay but look at this cutie with a crush on Charlie!!

Justin S.

I wish I could show Nick the one-off drawings of him and Charlie waaay into the future and be like bud, it's gonna be fine...Poor guy

n d

poor nick he’s hitting new lows every second 😭

Bevulio

Don't do it, Nick!

Hannah

Who are the people arguing?

Loveislove

Ahh - Alice is hammering us 🐲

laura

oh nick i know you’ll probably get a bit jealous that other people feel attracted to charlie… but can we blame them? 🫣

Cliff

Maybe he can make a pit stop to the bathroom on the way to the van. At this point, getting sick is better than some of the alternative scenarios! But I sense some high-stakes drama is coming, although in the past I’ve foreseen more catastrophic outcomes than some of the actual ones.

Elena

I guess Nick is thinking something like: "what if our relationship isn't strong enough and Charlie will find someone better than me." 😞

ravenelle
>>161591322

Nick's mom and dad. I think the noise is triggering them arguing when they were still married.

Frances
>>161589792

That’s exactly how it feels like 🫣 But it’s so so good!!!

Ulises
>>161589544

Oh ok I thought he was saying it like he was insult him like basically saying “man I have no luck talking to someone but Charlie “the gay nerd” has a boyfriend”

Rosie

I literally want to jump into this page and stage an intervention before things get any worse for this sweet boy! 😭

Elena
>>161589916

Or maybe Nick will not be aggressive to them. 🤔 I could also imagine him hustling out to Charlie now, for his reassurance and trying to stay calm, but he won't reach Charlie that fast and will freak out, maybe in form of a panik attack, because he got triggered too much now. 😞

NellieSayzBork

Is Nick thinking about his parents??

Dionne Lakey

Oh it is the Green Dragon pub so this is the first sign of jealousy - which he wouldn't indulge the feeling of if he was sober and not smarting from thoughts of Tao and Elle breaking up and his parents breaking up. In the N + C novella it's Charlie who is scared of what's happening with Tao and Elle and projecting it onto his and Nick's relationship. I wonder if in HS it will be Nick feeling this way instead.

Theaterboi27

OMG Alice! All the squiggly lines, bubbles, and lava lamp frames are exactly how my stomach feels right now. Just to be sure, is Nick drunk dreaming about the cute guy liking Charlie or did this happen during the evening? Rough page, but it is drawn perfectly.

Chloe ♡

oh the flashbacks are back 💔

lexi

great page Alice! i hope you have some time to enjoy season 2 of Severance!

Juliana Barhorst

Nick was saying before how love can fix everything then he flashes to a fight between his parents who he probably assumes loved each other at some point. So much going on in his head. Sweet Nick.😥I hope he realizes he and Charlie are not his parents! Also good on Charlie he’s got people crushing on him but obvi Nick got no competition. So don’t worry about him Nick and go find your boyfriend.

Roxy

I feel like nick minds in overdrive as charlie isn't as reliant on him anymore he doesn't think he wants/needs him anymore maybe 😢😢😢😢😢

Megan

Oh god I’m terrified. I really hope the worst that happens is Nick just yells and moves on. I actually hope it doesn’t lead to that at all and he just absorbs that and carried on . Nick fighting that guy would not fit with Nick’s character (even when drunk) because it just wouldn’t be Nick’s nature or character to start a fight especially over an innocent comment that wasn’t even meant for his ears. He learned his lesson from his fight with Harry (and Harry actually deserved that lol) so I hope he doesn’t start something just from hearing a guy make an innocent comment. Plus the guy accepted Charlie’s taken so it’s not like he’s going to do anything anyway. I think all the thoughts are just going to overwhelm Nick and he’s going to bolt outside and throw up. But Charlie’s going to see him throwing up and go comfort him and Nick’s going to be really emotional and might let slip a bit of what’s going on which is that he’s terrified he’s going to lose him. And this will hopefully prompt a bigger conversation for them to have in the morning when Nick is sober. Just please please don’t let this lead to a physical or verbal fight. 🙏🏻

Ashley Robinson

The hits keep on coming. Not Nick already feeling insecure and wanting to make sure he is making Charlie happy. Then hearing someone else crushing on Charlie is going to heighten his anxiety. I truly don’t think Nick sees himself. Therapy is going to be so good for this guy.

Claire

Oh goodness -- Nick feeling the pressure and having flash backs to his parents. Then over hearing someone else interested in Charlie. 😩 The pressure may get to be too much. He will either be smothering Charlie with a affection or causing an argument asking if he wants to break up. Not sure which. 🥹💔

Beam Bugge

more childhood trauma flashbacks, lovely /s also that kid with a crush on charlie is so gender

Jennifer Paddock
>>161590702

Nah, that boy was disappointed that Charlie has a boyfriend - he definitely is crushing on our Char 😊

Tori

Such an honest arc showing Nick’s abandonment issues and his anxiety about love not being enough for people to stay 😞 really well done despite how sad it is to watch unfold!

Lolli98

Oof, I thought Charlie had a lot to deal with during Season 3 with his ED and OCD. But with so much on his mind, I get really scared that Nick might spiral just as bad as Charlie did. I hope he will seek help before.🙏

ucfnurse

Nick and Charlie need therapy….😯🫂🙌💞❤️‍🔥☕️🍩🌹🌞🌻✌️🕊️☮️

Courtney Boaz

Okay but this page is so cinematic

Cole Morin

Enjoy your day out tomorrow Alice!!! I’ll just be chanting “it’s okay because they are endgame, it’s okay because they are endgame” since these tense moments are stressing me out 😅

Lolli98

I guess I'm not the only one that wants to crawl inside the comic, give Nick the biggest hug and tell him everythings gonna be ok and that Charlie will only ever love HIM!🥺💝

emily

oh nick :(((

emily

enjoy your day out tomorrow !!! ❤️‍🔥

Prinsassy

A bit?? 😵😘

Ana Alicia Aranda De Contreras

Now Nick is going to be more insecure about going to uni, 😕💔 because Charlie already has suitors. and alice enjoy your day even if you leave us with the tension😱🥺😭

Diana

Definitely feeling seen as the child of parents who frequently argued (and probably should have gotten divorced, but didn't). Nick's avoidance of bringing up things that are really bothering him makes a lot of sense, unfortunately. You kind of learn to bury things deep down, or make it seem like you're upset about something that you think will be a smaller deal than what you're actually upset about. It takes a lot of therapy and love to get over it - but Nick'll get there!

Neenie
>>161594900

Took me a lot of therapy to somewhat believe in love again when my parents separated; it’s a journey. Get Nick a Geoff! But maybe not Geoff specifically unless it’s couple’s counseling

Loveislove
>>161589916

Boy do we not know - could go either way - I'm thinking tears but that would be my reaction because I am overwhelmed by all of this. Based upon Alice's previous sketch of Charlie in Nick's jacket and perhaps the novella reverse plot, Nick may try to go make out with Charlie to claim boyfriend status but given his drunken state, piss Charlie off.

Kela87
>>161589916

Yeah, I can see a sort of drunk freaking out/panic attack coming his way. Like the one we saw in HS series 2 at the party in the woods.

Button

Thank you for the page today Alice!! Enjoy your day off! Here are my thoughts on today's page: Nick is going through all the feels right now. Drunkenly walking through the pub to find Charlie. Flashbacks of his parents fighting. Feeling overwhelmed from all of this because he normally represses all these feeling behind the "I'm fine" excuse. Nick was basically told off by Tao. Tara did see the tension and tried to calm things but didn't work. Now he overheard someone interested in Charlie while looking for him. I don't think Nick will "explode" or tell the guy off but he will definitely get in his head about the possibility of someone else liking Charlie. I don't think he will go on a jealous rage even in his inebriated state. It's not like he caught Charlie speaking with the guy or anything like he was chatting with the girl in the earlier page. Of course it is fine to feel jealousy, insecurity in their relationship, but how Nick responds to those feeling and even if there is reason to act on those feelings (which of course, there isn't) that will be interesting to see in future pages.

Loveislove

Well - just as Alice has shown with the panels, I think Nick is feeling very crowded and claustrophobic with his feelings. Everything is in a drunken swirl and spinning. His childhood trauma about losing his family to divorce and love definitely not being enough, him not being enough, was triggered by Tao and Elle's fight, his anxiety about his upcoming separation from Charlie made him fight his way in a panic through that crowd towards Charlie, bobbing and weaving. And now, in this very vulnerable state of mind he hears how someone else is attracted to his Charlie - just when he is feeling so much lesser and unworthy. I feel like we only see aggression from Nick with someone he knows well - David. But I could see some slobbering attempts at hugging and kissing Charlie and claiming everything is fine which Charlie may have finally had enough of hearing.

Loveislove
>>161608144

It will be interesting because he handled the girl flirting with him in front of Charlie so well. But that was a few drinks ago and such a reflection of how low his own self esteem is right now 😥.

Angie Michaelis

Alice really covered all bases for a perfect storm of insecurity and anxiety. I can’t look! 🫣 But I also need the next page five minutes ago! 😅 This could go so many directions, and I really have no idea what Alice has in store for us, except I expect we’ll see sweet, confused Charlie in Nick’s big puffy coat soon. Someone get this boy some water, a snack, and a big hug! Hope you have a nice break, Alice. You deserve it!

Bloomin’ smol cuppa

Ah past parent trauma is hitting strong 😭❤️ and the added knowledge that others are also looking at Charlie.

Nieves Maria Oliver Ballaga

I think that Nick'snt gonna say anything to Charlie right now and just lock everything inside. He will help him carry all instruments of the band and Charlie's gonna notice his sad face.... and then when they are alone Nick will crash because all of his internal issues and cry a river. Next day, when Nick's on his right mind Charlie will talk and support him while he say everything..... They're more mature and older, and they have always been able to talk "straight" about their feellings... that's what I love the most about them.... At least that's what I hope it happns...jjjj

Calfic

OMG. I have so many thoughts. First, I have always wondered if Stephane may have cheated. I have always thought that Sarah may have fallen more in love with the allure of him without fully knowing him . (I, too, enjoy a French accent, lol.). She may have been young and a bit naive. Then life got real with two kids and I just imagine him thinking she wasn't "fun" anymore. (And I think she is REALLY fun, but not carefree and all.). It would, I think, be really helpful for Sarah to reassure Nick that his relationship is different than the one she had with Stephane because I think it most likely is, even when Stephane and Sarah were happy. And that boy, so far, is doing NOTHING wrong. I mean I know I have said essentialy the same thing when someone has pointed out someone has a partner. It's not like a huge deal, But more than one thing may be happening. First, Nick got together with Charlie so young, that he never had those "oh darn" moments with people he may like that most people have experienced. Second of course is that he is spiraling about what might happen with Charlie once he leaves for uni, Something is about to happen. What I would prefer not to happen is the guy makes some kind of snarky comment, and Nick either verbally or physically attacks him. It's just not worth it. I would actually rather him break something band related. What I REALLY want him to do is spiral to Charlie and then throw up.

Evergreen

May the day arrive when Nick can see someone crushing on Charlie and just confidently think to himself, “I know! Isn’t he gorgeous? 🤩 And I get to go home with him tonight!”

Brittney

Oh, Nick, another parallel to the bonfire in season 2 episode 3, I think he's definitely going to have a panic attack, that's for sure. I know there has been a lot going on Nick's mind for a long time, especially with that mini comic giving us more insiders on what really goes on in Nick's head. Like lots of stress, worrying about his life, trying to take more steps to understand, shutting everything off thanks to his dad, and now been worrying about Charlie. It all has added more things in the pile of stress Nick is going through. Like Sarah said in volume 4, "This is a lot to put on a sixteen year old's shoulder." It wasn't an easier journey for Nick either, seeing his boyfriend go through a lot like sure, Nick wasnt there when the bullying began with Charlie but seeing the aftermath of the bullying and seeing the amount of affect it did on Charlie's health. It was a lot to witness and hear because he never realised it was that bad until him and Charlie talked about it properly and now just wow. But damn, this kind of journey is surprising me so much along the way because I had a feeling from the last volume, how much Nick told Charlie with that whole speech which I'm not going type out because it'll be long but that was the first kind of real glimpse to showcase that this last volume has to make a standing point on itself, and that's what it's doing like Alice, you are surprising all of us along the way, like throughout the first five volume in a way, it kind of was Charlie's whole journey and getting closure and now this volume is doing it again but this time for Nick, and giving us that heartfelt epilogue. I just can't wait to see could come next as the story keeps developing, I can already sense perhaps this is going to be the longest volume so far, because knowing it's the last volume, you got to finish it with a bang, am I right? So this is exactly what's happening!

David C Witkin

Uh oh. Nick's getting triggered. Nothing like a combination of worry, jealousy, alcohol and a post-trauma flashback to trigger a spasm of irrational behavior that makes sense in the mind of the drunk person but not to anyone else. This can often lead to arguments and violence. I hope Nick manages to avoid hurting himself or other people when he is in this state. He may need to learn some hard lessons, but he's big enough that those lessons may come at someone else's expense.

Calfic
>>161627102

I really hope it is just verbal. The other boy just has a crush, and is pretty much an innocent bystander basically.

Beam Bugge

this kid seems like a nice person and probably means no harm, but i hope nick in his drunken state won't be reminded of ben

Leonie

nick is really going through it this volume bless him

Steven

Nick is getting his first taste of OTHER PEOPLE salivating over his boyfriend! #JealousNickHasEnteredTheChat

RCM

Dear Nick, It's been a fun, long night, hasn't it? Charlie played SO well and I know you are super proud of him. It was great to be with the Paris squad (minus Darcy) other than the strain you saw between Tao and Elle...and who knew how happy and easy it would be to do shots with the rugby lads, and then dance and sing to Queer Intentions? SUCH A BLAST!!! But, I have to tell you...I know how you have this history of always "being fine," but for the past few months you have NOT been feeling very fine at all, just not quite right, and so uncertain about your future that you can't even write that annoying personal statement. We patrons keep thinking you are spiraling (like literally every new page!), and you slowly kind of are, but I want to remind you how BRAVE you have been since you were a little kiddo..."being fine" was YOUR coping mechanism for dealing with your childhood trauma and misguided paternal expectations, and you needed to be able to cope just to make it through the hard. It worked for awhile, right? I know you really were fine a lot of the time, especially with your mum and then, of course, with Charlie! Meeting him made you listen to the parts of you that were ready to wake up and sing and love, and you were so motivated to do so because of the way you felt every time you even looked at Charlie. It's quite a beautiful love story, actually. But now, you are being confronted with a big life defining moment, but this one feels really scary, because it forcing you to bring up those buried parts of you that are heavy, that hurt, that left you feeling alone and sad. And you know that no matter what, the next year will involve BIG changes with leaving your comfort zones of Charlie and your mum. I get how you feel most like yourself, the happiest, and the most grounded with Charlie... and leaving that (and worse, not being able to access being around him daily!) IS terrifying...and does not feel feel fine AT ALL. It feels isolating, abandoning...similar to what is trapped in those deep crevices of your heart you had just rather not think about...the ones you kind of managed to forget about for awhile. But, you've been seeing little flashbacks to a little Nick who was not fine, you've had horrific dreams recently , and now, tonight, I see you under the influence of alcohol, stumbling through a sea of faceless people (similar to how you felt before Charlie...you were never technically alone, but you were so, so LONELY)...and as I see as you walk across the dance floor all those darker, broken bits of you that you convinced yourself were fine, are coming out...your parents yelling and fighting, with you wondering if they loved each other why weren't they fine, why aren't Tao and Elle fine now. It feels all mixed up and jumbled, just as we see on the perfectly drawn panels today. The more you walk through the crowd, the more your mind jumps all over the place. It's a terrible feeling, and I know you must get to your Charlie for a recharge, right Nick? It feels like so much anxiety and emotion and stress and drunkenness and fatigue are settling in...and WTF did that guy just say about having luck and Charlie?! Just hear me, Nick...you don't have to be brave on your own all the time. You aren't alone in your house like little Nick...and you don't have to be fine all the time either...that coping method worked for awhile but you aren't the same Nick you used to be...you have that song in your heart now, remember? And you have support from Charlie and friends and teachers and coaches and your mum too. It's time to open up and be brave in a different way... I suspect it's going to hurt before it gets better. (like literally I think you are going to puke, but I'm also meaning figuratively hurt too!)..everything just under your skin is screaming for you to let this anxiety and fear out...please let it out...for little Nick and for current Nick to start to heal. Signed, an observant friend(s)

WHAT. A. MESSAGE. to Nick! It's so good, I'm speechless. 🥺 Don't know what else to say than just: 🥺🥺🥺

Teri Lyn

Oh no those flashbacks need to stay away!!!

Loveislove
>>161637284

Here's the stamp - please send this directly to Nick now and get it sorted out on behalf of all of us - ❤️‍🩹 - thank you.

artxsta

with every page in this sequence i’m truly worried abt nick and his well being. i feel similarly now to how i did when charlie had to deal w the year 7’s bullies, but luckily that sequence was resolved w little to no drama. i also appreciate that N&C are at the same event but not attached at the hip, it’s a great precursor for further personal development. great work alice !! i know these backgrounds are a lot of hard work but they are truly paying off .

Murgy

Oh, Tao and Elle are giving him flashbacks to his childhood. No wonder he wants to sort it, after likely feeling powerless then and not wanting to feel that again. Especially if there is a part of him that blames himself as we saw in a previous flashback. But that doesn't make it right for him to jump into the middle of Tao and Elle's argument, as they need to solve it themselves, not have someone butting in. I hope Nick doesn't do anything too rash in relation to the guy who seems to be crushing a bit on Charlie. After all, Charlie isn't going to leave him. But then again, that's easy for us to say as we know things Nick doesn't, like his future. And in a drunk mindset with his doubts of being left behind and painful flashbacks, I fear a confrontation is about to happen, though I'm still hoping it won't. Though even if there isn't one I hate to say it, but the comment will likely still weigh on Nick's mind, because of the above mentioned reasons.

Sandra Day

Unhappy Nick 😢😢 I still haven’t gotten over his diary when he was 12! 😢😢 I hope something of his diary can be a flashback on S4😢😢

Loveislove

I guess a thing to keep in mind is Alice usually keeps things fairly low key and solvable. We are used to high drama and melodrama in tv land but it isn't the Heartstopper way. I don't think we are going to see Nick assume a new personality and become violent with anyone. But after the events of this evening, I hope Nick's self awareness about why he is not feeling quite right can begin to become defined and the people supporting him can become clearer to him. And yes - a breakthrough with Charlie ❤️‍🩹

Calfic
>>161711434

I think it IS going to get messy (like literally, too, ) but I would be REALLY surprised if he got violent. II could see him maybe verbally saying something, but he just doesn't do that.

Calfic
>>161661858

Yes. That guy is doing nothing wrong. He is even acknowledging that he has no chance with Charlie. I hope that the boy doesn't make me eat my words tomorrow. But even if he did make a less than wise comment, that really wouldn't justify Nick engaging at all.

Elspeth Fougere

Is that sarah and stephan arguing in nicks memory? After being upset with tao and elle arguing and stonewalling each other? And what! Flirting potentials! Eek what an evening, both nick and charlie have been seeing other people into their partner and left feeling uncertain about their own worthiness 🥺 😭

Elspeth Fougere
>>161729390

When you get older, or perhaps just secure with a partner, its cute seeing someone else try. Or admire. Or catch the eye. Its all just love. It doesnt have to be scary. Its taking care of each other thats important, and attending to insecurities, with confidence ❤️🎈

toneelspeler

i wonder if the conflict set up is one where charlie feels like nick's not trusting him enough to be able to manage his bagage so-to-speak, thinking that actually all along nick did see him as fragile (one of the things he really doesn't want to be seen as) - meanwhile, nick sees a charlie who's coming more and more unto his own with his job and school and band and head boy role, and whom other people start to notice, and in the long run it could mean that charlie could do better than nick, and it scares him, because who is nick himself even? what does he even want to do, he has no clear goal or idea (so far). makes him want to be even more of a (over-the-top) good and perfect boyfriend than he is bc otherwise charlie would absolutely leave him behind. feels like the first 'crack' isn't too far in the future!

Loveislove
>>161732307

I'm thinking this is the way it is heading. For all his growth, Charlie has his insecurities too and he doesn't know what is going on in Nick's head. Nick may end up alienating the one person he loves the most. I'm just not sure how he begins to turn this around but would like to see Sarah connecting with him and it may take a fight with Charlie for her to get involved.

zara ahmed !!

someone else having a crush on charlie adds up 😭

a book dragon

Ooph the glimpse of Sarah and Stéphane 😪
