Marriage, a Heartstopper Fan-fiction

Chapter Sixty Six Family problems

(I added a new character to my fanfic he's not in the real comic or story line but I thought it would be kinda fun to add my very own character so yeah, Charlie has another brother who is 9)

(The start of next week...)

Nicks perspective
My fingers fiddle around with the bottle that contained the pills I must take everyday for the week, Charlie takes many pills everyday and will probably have to for the rest of his life and i'm winging about a week, I never thought about how hard it was for him when he started taking them I was over the moon because it helped him greatly maybe I should have been more mindful. "I KNOW OK" Charlie was in the kitchen arguing with his mom on the phone again, Charlie hasn't visited her since we moved out he wanted to see his dad, Noah and Oliver but it was too complicated with his mom. His mom hasn't ever been the best parent to any of her kids Tori was Oliver's, Noah's and Charlie's mother. Tori is so strong and independent honestly I worship her for all that she did, she's truly been the best sister to Oliver, Noah and Charlie even when she was dealing with her own problems. I'm so happy her and Michael are touring around the world together for Tori's work just enjoying life, Tori never wanted to work with the public so she decided to go into Animal photography, in my opinion that couldn't be a better job for her it's quiet , independent, and requires no small talk. Charlie's birthday is on Wednesday I'm quite happy that Michael and Tori will be attending the dinner at the Springs house hold, Charlie's not so little brother Oliver of course will be there since he lives there, I can't believe he's turning 13 he's going to be all grown up. Charlie's youngest brother Noah has turned 9 he was around 3 I think when we started dating. He's such an adorable little kid so sweet just like Charlie, Oliver is not much like Charlie he's more into girls and sports. Noah loves reading and school and takes after Charlie a lot personality wise he's shy and very well spoken. Although Charlie adores his brother Noah he often gets quite snappy at Noah because his mom won't stop pestering Charlie to take care of him, Charlie's tired and is much too busy with his own stuff to look after Noah but his mom won't stop it's like she doesn't know how to deal with kids because Tori did it all. I will never say this to Charlie's face but I don't really like his mom she's cold and I can never forgive her for all the things she's said to Charlie. I hope that Oliver doesn't have to take on the roll of raising Noah it's just not fair for a kid his age.

Charlie's perspective
Mom won't stop going on about how she's hasn't seen Me and Nick for like a year and won't stop pestering me about how Nick didn't ask for my their blessing before proposing, which is a literal joke that's so old school and stupid, plus I know my dad doesn't care it's only mom because she likes to be somehow in control of my life. I haven't even bothered to tell Nick my Mom is pissed off because I don't want him to stress or feel bad when he's done nothing remotely wrong. I really don't want to spend my birthday at my parents house but she will never shut up if I don't. Nicks mom invited us for my birthday and I wanted more than anything to spend it with her, growing up she was always a second mom to me. Last mothers I lied to my mom about having work and me and Nick spent the day with her it was lovely she really deserved a special day. "Are you even listening Charles" I roll my eyes hearing my moms croaking voice from the other line "Yes mother" she scoffs "Dont call me mother I hate that" I snap back giver her the same energy "Dont call me Charles than" she sighed and I couldn't hear anymore of her bullshit I hung up the phone without warning.

I went into the kitchen to to get Nick a glass of water and his pill so he wouldn't forget to take it, he's been kinda spiralling about it, he's worried it's going to ruin my birthday but my mom will no doubt about it find a way to do that so he needs to stop worrying about it and do what the doctor advises him to do. I grab the water and head to our bed room to see Nick fiddling around with the pill bottle. I put the water on our bedside table and sit down beside him. I gently take the pill bottle from his grip and open it up pulling out a pill saying "Love you need to stop worrying it's going to be alright I promise just at least try to do one day" he smiles weakly at me and takes the pill. I run my fingers through his hair and squeeze his thigh "However this week goes well do it together, if these aren't a good fit for you we'll try something else" He smiles "Your right" he then pulls my head down onto his chest "Are you ok your moms been calling a lot" I think about what I should say to not sound like a complete asshole "I'm ok just a bit stressed about going over there it's been a year, i've never felt so free and not grounded. It's been nice, I just don't want anything to go wrong, I don't want to associate my mom with bad things anymore, I know I can never have a normal relationship with her but it would be nice to get along." he rubs my cheek with his thumb "I'll make it my duty that you have a good birthday" I smile at his loving and dedicated attitude. "I love you" "I love you too"
