Warnings: Valentine's Day Fluff

Snow danced in the light of your window, your apartment lacking the warmth of Charlie's presence on Valentine's Day morning. You both agreed Charlie would take a production meeting about a potential job in California, seeing it as an opportunity not only for him but also to spend much-needed time with Henry.

You enjoyed your morning getting through some scripts you agreed to go over while Charlie was gone when you heard a knock on the door. Placing your steaming cup of coffee on the couch side table, you walked over to open the door. Charlie. He stood there with a relieved look on his face as he held a fresh bouquet of white roses in one hand and concealing something in the other.

"What are you doing here? Your meeting and Henry..."

"I couldn't." He stepped forward into the apartment setting the flowers on the dinner table. "Getting to see Henry was incredible. But when I was about to leave for the meeting, I found this in my pocket and I.." Charlie paused to look back at you, opening his palm to reveal a bracelet. A gold chain bracelet with C.B. engraved on it that he gifted to you on your anniversary. He stepped closer, never taking his eyes off the piece of jewelry in his hand. "I got to thinking about you. In the middle of the night, when everything was quiet, all I could think about was how it would feel to have you laying next to me. How I would give anything to wrap myself around you, get lost in your scent. Then I got to thinking how you were probably curled up on the couch, alone. On a day like today."

"Charlie..." You weren't sure where he was going with this; his eyes proceeded to study yours as he locked the bracelet back onto your wrist.

"And then I...I knew I had to come back home."

"To NYC?" You questioned. His hand on your waist could not bring you close enough to him. The tenderness of Charlie's caress on your cheek mixed with the tension makes your knees almost buckle as he whispered into your lips.

"To you."
