Timeline's Rememberance

- Chapter 10 - Offer

It has been almost a week since Henry's little mental breakdown. Ever since it happened, Charles knew something was up, I mean, why would Henry panic so much because of a perfectly fine-looking room?

Or was it because of...

"Nonsense." - Charles naively thought. There's no way in heaven Henry would've been triggered by a perfectly fine escape pod.

Or was it...?

There's still a possibility that that's what happened. But that'd be weird, wouldn't it? There was nothing wrong, nothing happening, no alarm going off... It could be something that happened as soon as he got taken into the Oribital Station while still unconcious.

"There's no point in overthinking this. I should build up the courage to ask Henry." - Charles said aloud.

"Courage to ask me what? Mr. Helicopter boy." - Henry surprised Charles with his voice, which caused the pilot to jump.

"Ah! Don't scare me like that!"

"Don't drive away from the topic."

"Wait- Did you say Mr. Helicopter boy?"

"Yes. I mean, all you've ever driven was a helicopter, and that's also what you're known for in the government."

"I guess you're not wrong, but I can also drive a car! Don't exclude that!"

"Okay. Well, I answered your question so now you answer mine."

"Huh? Oh, right! I'll tell you once I can."

Henry sighed upon hearing the response. He had to be patient but Charles was already on the Oribital Station for 2, almost 3 weeks. It was the time to ask him. But not Right now.

"Let's get going, shall we?" - Henry stated as he reached out his hand towards Charles, the Pilot in return grabbed the hand and was then pulled towards the Toppat.

"Wait... How'd you get into the room?" - Charles asked, Henry giggled in response.

"Looks like someone's the daydreamer today." - He teased, which made Charles slightly blush as he hid his embarrassed face, sitting once again on the bed. "I knocked on the door but got no answer, so I just walked in."

"What if I was changing!" - Charles protested.

"Who do you think changed your clothes back when you were still unconcious?" - Henry revealed whilst letting giggles escape out of his mouth, causing Charles to become even more embarrassed.

"...Still! I need some privacy..!" - Charles argued.

"Well, I needed to see if you didn't escape by any chance. I don't want someone like you escaping, y'know? You're a precious resource." - Henry calmly replied, his blue eyes staring right into Charles' green eyes which he shortly hid because of embarrassment.

"Cute..." - Henry thought, smiling as he walked up to Charles who was sitting on the bed using his hands to hide his obviously blushing face. He reached his hand out for Charles' hands covering his face, slowly moving them out of the way. Causing his puffy cheeks that were a bright shade of red, slightly pink lips and emerald-like green eyes that Henry wanted to look at forever to be revealed.

"No wonder I fell for him..." - Henry said to himself mentally. Charles was charming, and while Henry lied about being the one who changed his clothes, it was fun seeing Charles' adorable face being such a bright shade of red.

Charles proceeded to mutter something under his nose, Henry couldn't hear what he said but he was curious.

"What was that, pretty boy?" - He asked as he continued teasing Charles.
