As their friendship develops, Nick asks Charlie to join the rugby club which he accepts. Then we see Charlie’s boyfriend Ben kissing a girl and Charlie sees it. This made him realize how unhappy he is with Ben and he decides to quit things with Ben. Later, Ben asks Charlie to meet him again and when met, Ben tries to forcibly kiss Charlie.

Nick, who happens to be there, fends off Ben and saves Charlie from the situation. Then the series showcases more moments between Charlie and Nick becoming closer. Charlie talks about his relationship with Ben to Nick which he condemns. As the two became more close, Charlie’s feelings for Nick became stronger.

Charlie’s friend Tao tells Charlie that Nick is heterosexual and advises him to stay away from him. But Charlie continues to be friends with Nick. In episode two of the series, Nick invites Charlie to his house and while Charlie is sleeping, he tries to hold Charlie’s hands which makes him question his sexuality.

Then the series showcases Nick trying to discover his sexuality and the confusion that he goes through. In episode three of the series, Nick kisses Charlie and was surprised by his sudden action. The episode ends with Nick at Charlie’s doorstep and the two kissing each other. The two decide to date each other but not to come out because Nick still hasn’t found his sexuality. The relationship between Charlie and Nick makes Charlie distant from Tao.

After some incidents, Charlie decides to ignore Nick to save his friendship with Tao and also to give Nick peace. But then Nick and Tao become close to make Charlie happy and Nick reconciles with Charlie. The season ends with Nick and Charlie going for a picnic and Nick telling Charlie that he has decided to come out. The episode ends with Nick telling his mother that he is bisexual and his mom hugging him tightly.
