Nick and Charlie 🫶 (oneshots)

Safe place

(i will finish the concert story, but I just really wanted to do this one right now, so yeah you will have to wait for part 2 of the concert one)

Charlie's perspective:

I was so done with my mom. She had been yelling at me all day and it was just too much at this point. I decided to go over to nick's house even though he was at uni. Sarah and nick had both told me I could come over at any time, so I went over there. 

As I was walking nick both texted and called me, it was probably because I hadn't answered him all day, but I was just too tired. I physically could not get myself to answer him. 

Sarah's perspective: 

I was sitting on the couch watching TV when I suddenly heard a knock on the door, that was so weird? its 11pm on a Thursday night, who on earth would knock on peoples door at that time a day? 

I walked over to the door and opened. It was Charlie. 

"Oh Charlie love, come inside" 

I pulled him into a hug and closed the door behind him. I could see his eyes were puffed from crying, and he was a bit shaky.

"I- I'm so sorry to just come here, but I needed to get away from my mom for a bit" he said starting to tear up again

"It's okay love, you are always welcome here, this is as much your home as mine. You are my son as well" 

"Thank you Sarah" 

"Of course, do you want some tea or something, or do you just wanna go to bed?"

"I think I just need some sleep right now."

"Okay, I'll find you one of nick's hoodies to wear"

"Speaking of nick, can you call him? he has been texting and calling all day, but I just haven't been able to talk to anyone today" Charlie says 

"Of course love, now go upstairs and get some sleep" 

Charlie goes upstairs and I go back into the living room and call nick 

"Hi? is everything okay?" he asks nervously 

"Yes and no. Charlie came over, I think he and his mom have been fighting all day. Can you come home tomorrow? I know you have classes but I think he really needs you" 

"Yeah yeah of course, I have a class from 8 to 9 I have to go to, but I'll drive home as fast as I can after that. Will you give him one of my hoodies to sleep in?"

"I have already given him one, I'll see you tomorrow Nicky, love you"

"Love you too mum" 

*the next day* 

Nick's perspective: 

I just finished my maths class, I had to finish an assignment, but now I'm going home to be with Charlie. I pack all of the stuff I need, and head to my car. As I get on I just text my mom to let her know I'll be home soon

Nick❤️: Hi mum, I'll be home in 1,5 hour, love you

I start the car, and start driving home. The whole car ride I can't stop thinking about Charlie. I feel so bad for him, and I hate that his mum won't just realise how much damage she has done, and that Charlie actually has feelings. Like I know that he loves her, but I still think she I a pretty bad mother. I would never tell Charlie that of course. 

When I get home I run out of the car and inside of my house.

"Hi mum, I'm going upstairs" 

"Okay love"

I run up the stairs and when I slowly open my bedroom door I see Charlie curled up in my bed. He is still sleeping, so I just slowly walk over there and sit down next to him on the floor. I can see his eyes are puffed from crying, but he still looks so beautiful just laying there. 

I take this hand in mine and just sit there waiting for him to wake up. After what I think might be an hour he starts moving around a bit

"Char" I whisper

He opens his eyes and they meet mine. 

I see tears starting to form in his eyes, and I get up from the floor and lay down next to him, I pull him in so close to me, and just say 

"I love you Charlie."

I can hear is full on crying now, and it breaks my heart. I hate it when he is feeling down. He is honestly the sweetest person on the whole planet, and he doesn't deserve any of this. 

Charlie's perspective: 

i was laying in nick's arm crying more than ever before. Yesterday was so shit, and all I needed was nick, and now he's here and I just need to feel his touch, and hear his voice. I'm not ready to explain anything to him yet, not because it's him, but because I don't think I can talk yet. I feel so numb. 

"Oh love, I love you so so so so so much" nick says

I just hug him a little tighter to make sure he knows I feel that too. Cause I do. I love him more than anything. He is the best thing in my life, and the only person I trust 100%. 

"Charlie I know you, so I know you're not ready to talk yet, but please talk to me when you feel ready. I love you so much, and I am here for you no matter what." 

"thank you" I whisper. 

I think he heard me cause he seemed a little relieved. 

After that we just kind of stayed in that position. I stopped crying after a while, and now we were both just holding on to each other.

"Can I stay here this weekend?" I ask

"Of course love, you can stay here forever if you'd like" 

"thank you. and thank you for coming down to see me"

"Hey, of course I came down. You are the most important thing in my life, and if you need me, im gonna be there" 

"I love you nick" 

"I love you too char" he says kissing my on the top of my head
