A short novella based on the beloved characters from the graphic novel Heartstopper and Alice Oseman`s debut novel Solitaire, which was praised as `The Catcher in the Rye for the digital age` by The Times. Absence makes the heart grow fonder, right? CHARLIE: "I have been going out with Nick Nelson for two years. He likes rugby, Formula 1, dogs, the Marvel universe, the sound felt-tips make on paper, rain and drawing on shoes. He also likes me." NICK: "Things me and Charlie Spring do together include: Watch films. Sit in the same room on different laptops. Text each other from different rooms. Make out. Make food. Make drinks. Get drunk. Talk. Argue. Laugh. Maybe we`re kind of boring. But that`s fine with us." Everyone knows that Nick and Charlie are the perfect couple - that they`re inseparable. But now Nick is leaving for university, and Charlie will be left behind at Sixth Form. Everyone`s asking if they`re staying together, which is a stupid question - they`re `Nick and Charlie` for God`s sake!
