Charles POV:

I haven't seen Carla in quite some time, it seems that she hasn't changed... Carla becomes more and more insecure each day.. what a headache. And it's all my fault..

[[Flashback] When they were really really young kids- like 10 years ago]

"Charles look!" A voice called out.

Charles and two other boys whipped their heads over, to be met by the sight of Carla, all dressed up. Like- full makeup and all that. "Do I look pretty in this dress?" Carla asked, gesturing to herself.

Charles was shocked beyond words. A boy besides him commented, "She's all dolled up! Just like my mum!"

"Why are you dressed like this?" Charles asked Carla. "Why? What's wrong?" Carla responds. "Hey, Charles! Carla must like you! She's so cute this way!" One boy said. The other boy agreed, "Maybe she dressed up for you?"

"Hey! Don't talk nonsense!" Charles told them off. He then turned to Carla, as the two boys snickered and laughed. "You look weird in that dress, it doesn't suit you. You better go home and change."

Carla was taken aback, and swiftly ran off, with tears in her eyes.

Those words I have said all those years ago.. if I had known, I wouldn't have said them.

2nd POV:

Charles walked around Poposi's Academy for Girls, (gaining more bitches on the way), to clear his mind. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw you with Albert, chatting happily away. He runs up to both of you.

"Hey Y/N, Albert."

"Oh hey bro- just in time, I have to run an errand, could you keep Y/N company for me?" Albert askes. Charles nods.

"OKAY BYE BYE GUYS-" Albert says, before running towards the nearby ice cream truck.

You stared in the direction he went. "Did he- just ditch me for ice cream..?" "It seems so-" Charles chuckles. "Why don't we get some to? Today was... quite a day, after all." You nodded eagerly and skipped towards the ice cream truck.

If theres one thing that could cure all sadness in the world, it was ice cream.

Specifically, salted caramel with sea salt and cookie dough, with some oreo crumbs.

Unfortunately, the ice cream truck was a small one, and didn't have that specific combination of ice cream. You sulked, picking out a mint chocolate while Charles picked Vanilla. (bro needs more personality, but I feel like he would pick it anyway for misdirection or smt if ykyk)

Side note: Albert was absolutely DEVOURING his ice cream like it was his lifeline.

"That'll be 4 dollars, miss." The ice cream lady politely said. You fumble around your pocket, gasping in horror.

Shit. Your wallet. Sitting in your dorm on your bed in the morning. In plain sight. And what did you say? Nahhh I'll take it before I leave. But obviously being the idiot you were you did NOT. You cursed at yourself internally.
