The chopper lands outside of Henry's place, the recently reunited lovers hopping off of it.

Henry was carrying Charles' bridal style because he thought it was cute and symbolic of their repaired love, and Charles didn't mind a bit.

Henry opens the door with his foot and carries him over the threshold, and closes it also with his foot.

"Well, sugarfluff, we're finally home." he says, kissing Charles on the head.

Charles blushes and giggles. "Good."

Henry sets Charles down. "Ok, charlie... now that you're here, there's some people I'd like you to meet."

Charles tilts his head. "People?"

Henry nods. "Follow me." he says, taking his hand.

He leads Charles to the living room, where he shows him the diamond and ruby, which were still sitting on the couch.

"Allow me to introduce you to my ladies." he says, smiling.

He gestures to the diamond. "This is diamond." he says, stroking it gently. "She's the first girl I fell in love with, and she's been by my side ever since I rescued her..."

He sighs. "She's so regal and elegant, and always wants to look her best." he says with a giggle. "Which she always does."

He then gestures to the ruby. "And this is ruby." he says, "she's a real feisty, sassy lady..." He strokes it. "She lights a fire within me everytime I look at her..." he says, sighing.

He then turns to charles. "Girls, this is charles." he says.

"He was my first love, and now he's come back to me!"

He looks at the diamond. "What's that diamond?"

He smiled. "Oh yea, he is super cute isn't he?"

Charles was a little bit weirded out(ok maybe more than a little bit). But he figured he'd play along.

"Wow! What, um... beautiful ladies!" he says with an awkward smile. "Quite an impressive collection you have here."

Henry nods. "Thank you!" he says. "I accept only the finest jewels. My sparkling diamond, and my radiant ruby..."

He then smiles, cupping Charles's face.

"And now I have one more to add to my collection..."

Charles blushes.

"My emerald..." Henry says.

Charles smiles. "Awwww..."

He hugs henry. "You're so sweet."

Henry holds him close. "I try my best."

Charles then pulls back, looking at the jewels.

"I'm surprised you still have these..." he says, eyeing them up. "I'd have guessed you would have sold them for boatloads of money."

Henry lets out a horrified gasp. "Sell them?!"

He strokes the diamond. "Why, I perish the thought... I could never part with my beloved jewels."

Charles tilts his head. "Well... isn't that the whole reason you stole them? To... sell them?"

Henry shakes his head.

"I didn't 'steal' them." he says with air quotes. "I rescued them, to bring them to their perfect place."

He strokes the ruby. "The place where they will be loved and cherished by me, forever."

Charles smiles. "I guess that makes sense, in its own weird, twisted way."

Henry giggles. "Exactly."

He then cups Charles' face.

"I mean, I wouldn't sell YOU, would i?"

Charles smiles a little.

"I guess not."

He nervously giggles. "At least I hope not."

Henry kisses his head. "I wouldn't."

Charles gives him a warm smile, hugging him.

"I love you, Henry, as crazy as you are."

Henry hugs back. "I love you too Charlie, my beautiful emerald."
