Charlie POV

I flip through the pages of my book, as music plays through my headphones.

Today was a warm and sunny day, rare for England, so I decided to go and sit in the park and read a book that Isaac recommended.

My eyes scan the pages before the become aware of a figure stalking in my peripheral. I look up and am met with a familiar pair of green eyes looking at me from a couple meters away.

"Sam?" I say, pulling out my headphones.

"Charlie?" he laughs out, "It is you!"

He approaches quickly but remains a safe distance away from me.

"Uhm, what are you doing here? Last I checked you moved up north."

"Yeah, yeah still up there" he says awkwardly, "Just here visiting family."

"Right right." I say, standing up, "Well it's good to see you again, uh I hope you've been well."

I smile softly at him after that and walk away. I see him open his mouth to say something, but nothing comes out.

Sam and I had dated for majority of the first year of uni before I met Nick. We split up amicably because he got a better uni offer further up north and we both agreed long distance wasn't an option.

I continue on my walk as I try to ignore the sinking feeling in my stomach.

The next day Nick and I decided to go out on a cute little coffee date.

I hadn't mentioned seeing Sam as I assumed we probably wouldn't see him around as this part of town is quite big.

Just as we're about to walk into the café I hear my name being called. I feel Nick tense up beside me as we both turn around.

"Hi Sam." I say, with a polite smile. This makes Nick tense even more; he knows about my past relationships, and I know of his but last he knew this specific ex was not in this part of the country.

"Hello, and who might this be?"

"Nick, I'm Charlie's boyfriend." He says, with an edge to his voice. I lightly elbow him, signaling for him to calm down.

Sam's face visibly drops at the statement, but only for a second before returning to the same chipper expression. "Oh, lovely. You guys are so cute together."

We stand in silence for a beat too long so to cut the tension I interject, "Well, we have a" I nod my head towards the door, "reservation so we better get going."

We exchange goodbyes and we walk into the café, I know Nick isn't going to be happy.

"Sam huh?" He says, with a slight frown.

"Nick, please this is meant to be nice." I plead with him, "I saw him yesterday while I was in the park, and I was just as surprised as you were to see him in town."

"Ok, but if he bothers you let me know." He grumbles cutely.

I laugh at him and lean over the table to give him a kiss on the cheek.

Over the next couple days any time we were in public I noticed Nick giving much more PDA than usual. We aren't usually very touchy in public, so this was odd.

We hadn't run into Sam again after the day of the café, but I have a feeling that is what is bothering him.

It's late Friday evening when I get a message request from Sam.

I outwardly groan at the notification and Nick pipes up from the other room, "You alright?"

"Mhm."

"That wasn't very convincing," he says

"Sam messaged me." I say bluntly.

I get no response just the sound of footsteps approaching the living room. He snatches the phone from my hand and reads the message.

I watch as Nick's face contorts before he angrily mumbles, "Can't the prick take a hint."

I grab my phone back from him and read what seems to be some long-winded message of him professing his love for me and that he's leaving in the morning and wants me to come with him.

Good lord.

I look up at Nick who has an unreadable expression on his face.

I reach up and grab his arm, pulling him down onto the couch with me.

"Hmm? What's up?" I say, running my fingers through his hair.

"It's just- I don't know I guess I'm just jealous for some reason." He mumbles

I kiss his forehead and hold him close, whispering reassurances in his ear. After he calms down a bit, I grab my phone and block Sam on everything, and we spend the rest of the night watching movies and cuddling.

As I look over at him as we're snuggled up on the couch I can't help but fall in love with him all over again, my golden retriever.
