TW: SEXUAL ACTION, EATING DISORDER
Nicks pov
"YOU ALWAYS DO THIS CHARLIE YOU NEVER ASK YOU JUST DO THINGS!" I wake up to the sound of Charlie's mom yelling at him and Charlie crying from downstairs . Charlie's mom always finds a reason to yell at him and it's ridiculous I don't say anything about it because Charlie gets emotional when I call his mom out on her behavior so I just have to sit back and watch Charlie get hurt and it hurts me. Charlie comes upstairs and closes the door, he has dark circles around his eyes and his eyes are red. "You okay love?" I ask. "Yeah I'm fine." He sniffles and lays next to me up against his headboard. "I just can't wait to move out I don't know how much longer I can take this." He sighs and tears fall from his eyes again. I'm trying to fight the urge to ask him what happened but I don't want him to cry anymore. I wrap my arm around him and let him cry it out without stopping him. "Don't worry all we need to do is get furniture and we'll be gone." I smile at him. We ended up choosing a flat in front of the beach that's 2 bedrooms we don't know what we'd use the 2nd bedroom for but it's a really nice house and Charlie is just as excited as I am.

"Say we go grab something to eat so we don't have to stay here?" I suggest. "Sure." He smiles and his dimples begin to show. He gets up off the bed and begins to get dressed changing his shirt. Once his shirt is off I can't help but get mesmerized Charlie is so handsome I know he feels like he isn't but he's the most beautiful person in the world. He looks back and sees me starting and shoots me a smile "what Nicolas you see something you like?" He uses his playful tone. I get up off the bed and hug him behind"maybe I do." I begin to kiss his neck. He laughs as I keep going. "Nick if we keep this up we're never gonna leave." He says trying not to show he's enjoying it. "Cmon char just a few minuets won't hurt anyone." I shoot him a smile and his cheeks glow pink. He turns around,wraps his arms around my neck and kisses me and of course I fall into it. Next thing I know we're making out and his shirt is halfway off.

He pulls his lips off of mine and we press our foreheads together and laugh "Nick my family is home right now." He chuckles. "Sorry char." I give him a kiss and let go of him so he could get dressed. Once he's dressed we walk downstairs "where are you two going?" Oliver asks leaning against the wall on his phone. "We're just going out to eat Ollie." Charlie rolls his eyes. "I wanna go." He says. "What?" Charlie asks. "I'm coming with you two." He repeated. "Why though?" He asks. "Hey you think I wanna hear mom and tori yell at each other all day?" He scoffs. "Eh fair enough." Charlie shrugs and Oliver runs upstairs. Charlie turns to me and asks "you okay with him coming?" "Yeah that's fine Ollie's a good kid." I smile. He finally comes downstairs and we get in the car.

Oliver's pov
I was super excited that I got to go with Nick and Charlie I haven't been with them since I was like 7 and their pretty fun. The whole car ride they were flirting and it did get pretty annoying but I'm used to it by now. "So Ollie how's school?" Nick turns around at the red light. I hate it when people call me Ollie, I'm a teenager now and Ollie sounds like a baby name but no one understands. "Eh it's fine I guess." I reply going back on my phone. "Any crushes??" He flashes Crazy eyes at me and Charlie turns around. I blush for a while before telling him "well there's this girl in my history class named Samantha she's a year older than me." Charlie shoots that dumb grin of his "is that the girl you invited over to study?" "Mabey. Mabey not." I puff my cheeks up.

"Aww that's adorable ollie!" Nick starts driving again. But Charlie stays looking at me "have you asked her out yet?" This question catches me off guard. "What!? Of course not she won't even look in my direction!" I cover my face with my hand to hide how red my cheeks are. Nick and Charlie look at each other and shoot a smile and I don't like it. "Why are you two smiling...?" I get worried. They say nothing still smiling and Nick finally reaches a waffle house. We hop out of the car and into the Waffle House, Nick walks up to the reservation desk "table for 3 please." The lady at desk who looks about 20 starts blushing.

"Ok two adult and one kids menu?" She clicks her pen looking at me. I begin to get pissed and turn red. Charlie puts his hand on my shoulder and corrects her "3 adult menus actually." She puts the kid Mene away and takes us to our table. "You okay ollie ?" Nick asks. Ollie... ollie that's what they all call me. I'm tired of being treated like a baby when I'm a teenager now, no matter how mature I try and act that's all I am to them, a baby. Mom babies me a lot more compared to tori and Charlie that's why they don't respect me and Nicks know me since I was 6 and he acts like im still 6 but no im 15 why won't they understand.

Nick is the older brother that I can relate to more than charlie. We're both very athletic, we both like marvel and we're both pretty cool, we never disagree so if I tell him how I really feel who knows how he would react. Charlie on the other hand would understand I suppose ever since mom found out about his eating disorder and self harm she's been babying him as well. When I was younger I never knew how much Charlie was hurting because he never let me see. He only came out his room to play with me when he was feeling good but now that I'm older him and tori told me everything and I feel bad.

But I've seen him getting better with Nick day by day. "Yeah I'm fine." I reply turning to the window. The waitress comes up to our table "hi I'm Cindy welcome to Lucy's hot cakes! What can I get you on this lovely day?" She asks in a bubbly attitude. "Umm I'll take blueberry waffle's." Nick smiles and Charlie looks down. "What would you like?" She turned to me and I ordered the same as Nick. "Alright I'll be back with your order shortly!" She walks to the back and I put my head down on the table. Nick and Charlie look down at me worried "are you really okay Oliver?" Charlie asks.

I couldn't lie so I just gave in and tears roll down my face. "No! I'm not okay I feel like a baby and it's so degrading everyone treats me like a little kid when I'm not! When you guys call me "Ollie" it's so annoying I'm not a baby at all!" I cry. Nick and Charlie look at each other, Nick reaches for my hand "I'm sorry Oliver I never knew how much you were hurting and I won't call you Ollie if you don't want me to." He smiles and I wipe my tears. "Really?" I sniffle. "Of course now come here." He reaches his arms out and I walk to the other side of the booth.

Nick hugs me and everyone was right Nick does give the best hugs. Charlie joins in too and then our food comes.
