BenCharlie

BenCharlie is the slash ship between Ben Hope and Charlie Spring from the Osemanverse fandom.

Canon
Ben was a deeply closeted bisexual, and he heard that Charlie was outed as gay. As a result, Ben often asked Charlie to secretly meet up and make out. Charlie expected a serious relationship with Ben, but he realized that Ben had a girlfriend that he was never told about. Charlie texts Ben apologizing since he doesn't want to meet up anymore. Ben asks why and agitatedly tells Charlie that they won't get caught. Ben gets further upset when Charlie ignores his texts.

Two weeks later, Ben finds Charlie at his locker and says he needs to talk to him. Charlie tells Ben an excuse to not talk to him, but Ben demands that Charlie responds to his texts. Ben isn't satisfied when Charlie says there's no explanation for why he doesn't want to meet up. Ben grabs Charlie by the collar and yells that it isn't good enough. Charlie looks scared and uncomfortable, but Nick interrupts the two, which causes Ben to storm off and tell Charlie that they'll talk later. Nick asks why Charlie is friends with Ben, to which Charlie quickly defends himself by saying he only helps Ben with his mathematics homework.

Later on, Charlie finally agrees to talk to Ben, but Nick follows him. Ben comments on how lame it is that Charlie is wearing a coat in February. Charlie asks what Ben wants, and Ben steps forward to grab Charlie's arm. Charlie tells Ben not to touch him, but Ben says that he's only trying to be nice. Charlie expresses again that he doesn't want to meet up with Ben, but Ben only believes that Charlie is scared of getting caught. Charlie goes on about how Ben is the one that's scared of getting caught since he is closeted while Charlie was outed. Charlie also goes on about how Ben never cared for Charlie and only met up when Ben wanted to make out with a boy. Ben slams Charlie against the lockers and attempts to kiss Charlie, much to his discomfort. Charlie yells at Ben to stop, only to be met with comments that he's hot when he's angry and that Ben really likes him. Charlie cries, and Nick interrupts and gets Ben to leave.

Fanon
BenCharlie, along with Ben by himself, is hated by the fandom. BenCharlie is also overshadowed by the far more popular Narlie ship. In fanfiction, BenCharlie is often portrayed as a past relationship rather than a current relationship.
