Perfection | Charli D'amelio

-Big Day Tomorrow-

~Y/n's Pov~

Me and Charli boarded the plane to Virginia. I can't believe this is happening right now. For years I thought I would never see Lucas again, never. I gave up believing, now look where we are. What am  going to say? Does he still love me? Does he remember me? He is thirteen now. I haven't seen him in eight years. Eight whole fucking years. I was practically his mother for five years, he has to remember me right? What's going to happen when I get there? Is it just going to be a "say hi to your brother you haven't seen in almost a decade then leave" situation?

"Is he going to remember me, Charli?" I rub my hand over her thigh in nervousness. 

She squeezes my hand and looks at me in the eyes. "Due to what you guys have been through, I think it would be hard to forget you." I nod and rub the ring that's on her finger.

We landed at the airport and ordered an uber to take us to a hotel. We stood outside and waited for the uber to arrive. Me and Charli's hands were interlocked and every so often she would squeeze it. I don't think  I would be able to do this if Charli wasn't here. I am so grateful for her; more than she could ever know. 

The Uber pulled up in front of us and we got into the car. As we pulled out of the airport and headed to the hotel, Charli kissed my hand then planted a soft kiss on my lips. 

We arrived at the hotel and checked in at the front desk. Charli and I rolled our suitcases on the elevator and headed to the third floor. It's not an extravagant hotel because we aren't here on vacation or anything. We are here for a very serious matter so it does not matter what hotel we stay at. 

We walked into our room and it had a decent size bathroom, one bed, and a tv; a normal hotel room. We put our suitcases in the corner of the bedroom. We didn't want to unpack them into the closet and dresser provided for us because like I said before, I have no clue how long I am staying here. 

"You should take a shower first." Charli said, turning on the tv. 

"Okay." I replied, pulling out my pajamas and shower things from my suitcase. Charli smiled at me as I walked into the bathroom. I left the door halfway open, it's a thing me and Charli do. We leave the door halfway open when we shower so it is easier to check up on each other, in case the other person needs to go in there, or if the other person wants to talk to the person but doesn't want to go into the bathroom. The other person can go into the bathroom to accompany the other person if they want to. We don't want to leave it all the way open because it's kind of hard for the housemates to knock, besides Charli. You may think it is very weird and clingy but it makes perfect sense to us. Sometimes Charli feels very overwhelmed in the shower and gets panic attacks, I need to be there for her easier. Charli knows that sometimes I just sit in the shower and let thoughts get to me as the water falls over my head. Whenever things like that happen, Charli usually shuts the door behind her, opens the shower curtain, and just sits and talks to me. When she get's panic attacks or feels overwhelmed, I either help get her out of the shower, or sit in the shower with her with my clothes still on and talk to her. 

"You okay in there babe?" Charli yells from the bed. 

I smile to myself then respond to her. "Yeah baby, I'm fine." I finish up in the shower, wrap a towel around my body and my hair, then get out. I put on my Nike shorts and t-shirt, and brush out my hair. 

I walk out of the bathroom after I finish my skincare and Charli is watching Shrek, fully invested in it. "Enjoying the movie I see." I climb under the covers and press Charli's warm body up against mine. 

She laughs and turns her head to face me. "I have to shower." I just groan in response and continue holding her. "Babe I have to shower!" She laughs as I tickle her stomach and attack her cheek with kisses. After a couple of childish moments, I let her go so she can go take a shower. 

She blows the hair out of her face and giggles as she gets her things from her black suitcase. "I'll be right back." She smirks at me then walks into the bathroom, leaving the door halfway open.

Charli comes out of the shower in pink sweatpants and my white hoodie. "I didn't see you pack that." I stated as she climbed into bed with me. 

"Exactly." I laugh and give her a long sweet kiss on her lips. She gets under the covers and presses herself up against me. I can feel her body heat radiating onto me. I out one of my arms over her waist and run my other hand through her hair. 

"Big day tomorrow, meeting up with the social worker....and seeing Lucas..." Both of our eyes are glued to the tv as we speak. 

"It's going to be fine babe, I promise. Good things might come out of it, you never know. Just remember I am right here." She moves my hand that is interlocked with hers to her heart. We layed there watching Shrek, feeling her beating heart, until we drifted off to sleep....
