Marriage, a Heartstopper Fan-fiction

Chapter Twenty Eight The Last Day of Vacation

Charlie's perspective
I didn't want to sit around and do nothing today Like yesterday, don't get me wrong, me and Nick had an amazing day cuddling, watching films embracing each other and talking about our feelings, but we can do that any old day this is our last day in Morocco and our first real vacation together. I know Nick is going to be super hesitant about going to the beach because of the last few horrible experiences we've had; but I love going to the beach with just him and I really want to just have a fun day out with my boyfriend after all this craziness. He was as usual making breakfast to make sure I ate enough he was the most selfless person I've ever met. "Nick We should go to the beach today, just us in the sand soaking up our last day here" he turns around and says "Char I don't know, the beach has been really terrible this whole summer especially for you!" I look up at him and hug him tight "I know but me and you go to the beach just us and it's fine" he gives me a suspicious look and says "Charlie are you doing this because you think I want to go; or do you really want to go" I didn't want to keep secrets from Nick anymore and I have been putting in tons of effort to be truthful and honest with him. I understand why he's asking though I usually like to put other peoples wants before mine and ignore my own feelings; but I wasn't doing that this time I really did want to go to the beach with him. I then interlock my fingers with his and say "I told you I was going to stop hiding my feelings from you I want you to trust me, That's why i'm telling you the truth I really do want to go to the beach with you" he smiles and I can tell he wants to go just as badly as I want too. "Good!! because I love you and I need to know how you really feel so we can work as a team and you don't need to struggle alone" I wasn't going to tell him this but he's right I need to tell him how I feel "Nick one thing though, Can we not go to the beach that's close to us because I really don't want to run into David again. He replies "Definitely, that's a perfect idea it will just be us, I prefer it that way."

Nicks perspective
We ate breakfast and now we were on our way to a beach called Blue stone it was a thirty minute drive away. We choose this one because it wasn't too far but also we knew that My mom and david weren't going to be there. Charlie sat in the passenger seat as always with his knees tucked up to his chest and his sunglasses on. This moment reminded me of time when we were driving home it was my last day of high school ever, Charlie was sitting on the seat just like he was now with his sunglasses and his curly hair although now his hair was quite a bit longer, the sun shining on his beautiful skin. I remember talking pictures of him on my polaroid camera that day, that picture is still one of my favourite photos of Charlie to this day so I take my phone out of my pocket and take two photos before he notices me. "NICK UGHH I look so bad right now, my hair is a mess and I have a stain on my shirt" I know he didn't see himself the way I did because I thought he looked like the cutest guy ever in this moment. He's hair was flowing around in the wind and his shorts and shirt matched perfectly, his skin looked bright and glowing in the sun and he looked so cute in those sunglasses omg. I replied "Char you look so cute right now I can't believe you just said that" He sits there and I see a small grin appear on his face he was trying to hide it but he couldn't help himself. I then say "You know when you do that little half smile your even cuter" He blushes and says "I do not!" I say in response "you most definitely do!!" then I pinch his tiny cheeks because he's so sassy. He lays his head down on my shoulder and says " Nick you have the most perfect face, hair, body, style, eyes everything about you is perfect and you think i'm cute if cute was a person it would be -" I cut him off and say "You, if cute was a person it would be you" I then take my phone out again and snap a selfie of us together. Me sitting in the driver seat holding the wheel of our jeep with one hand and Charlie leaned over practically sitting in my seat laying his small head on my shoulder, and us both wearing matching sunglasses and swim trunks. In my opinion it was the perfect photo char looked so natural, he wasn't trying to force a smile he was just smiling. It felt like I captured a moment where both of us just felt genuinely happy, like it was just us up against the world and nobody else mattered. We didn't need anything else or anybody else we were content just being us.
