Us against the world

Nick has one job to do today, his only job is to get Charli from the mental ward. They haven't talked much recently and Nick isn't sure where they stand. Nick pulls up signs in and waits for Charlie to gather his stuff. The big metal doors open and Charlie comes running out and hugs Nick. Did you miss me, Nick, of course, I did I am so happy you are back. Me too now let's stop talking and let's go get milkshakes. The couple left the big doors and pretended like nothing ever happened.

Hey Charlie I think we need to talk over milk sakes. Please order first Charlie what would you like. I would like a chocolate milkshake and Nick would like a bubble gum milkshake. So gross Nick I could never eat one of those. You are so funny just give it another try. We need
To talk I love you and this is why I have to do this. Charlie, we need to break up You need time to recover and I am in your way. I understand I think it is for the best. I am glad we see eye to eye on this. The couple gives each one last hug and Nick takes Charlie home. Goodbye Charlie, goodnight friend.

The weekend was over and it was time for everyone to get back to school. Nick walks in and Charlie walks in and they walk to class together. Harry and his friends start laughing. What's so funny Harry? The fact that you and you're mentally unstable boyfriend are still together. I am going to beat your ass if you say one more thing. Okay fagot Harry says and laughs. Nick runs up to Harry and punches him. Harry punches back and Nick pushes him
To the ground. STOP NICK STOP PLEASE. The principal came Nick Nelson got off of him right now.

Everyone watched while Nick's mom showed up and made him go home. Nicks's phone buzzes and Charlie sends him a text. Are you going to the party tonight? Yeah, I am going to sneak out and meet you at the party tonight. Okay sounds good I am happy to see you.

It was later on and the night and Nick climbed out his window. He headed over to Darcy's house for her party. He Charlie at the door and went to hug him. Omg Darcy remember me it's Charlie Long time no see, omg Charlie I missed you I did not see you yesterday. How are you? I am doing great ready to party. Let's play beer pong with Nick and Darcy and Tao and Elle. Yes, I am so down I am going to beat your ass, Tao. Keep dreaming Charlie.

Take a drink, Charlie. Take a drink. Omg, I am losing so badly right now. By the time the game was over Charlie had fifteen drinks. Yall ever thought about why? Charlie you're drunk go sit down. I don't want to sit down, I'm going to get food. Nick OMG is that you are too drinking. What no never. Nick also being drunk off more beers than Charlie. Let's go talk upstairs Nick.

They walk upstairs and go into the bedroom to talk. I about you Charlie but I am so drunk, omg me too Nick. I miss you I think we need to talk. Nick, I want you to be my first time. Nick gets closer and starts to kiss Charlie. The test for alcohol reeked from both of their Mouths. He pushed him on the bed and started to kiss him. The door opens and Isaac walks in. What the fuck I thought you guys broke up!!! Nick and Charlie put their shirts back on and ran outside to talk to Isaac.

Isaac, please do not tell everyone I do not want everyone to know. Fine, I will not tell anyone I wish I could bleach my eyes now. Oh wow, you are so funny Isaac now let's go back to the party. We hear a voice the party is over go home and Darcy's mom screams. We all run as fast as we can. Nick grabs Charlie and carries him to his car. He takes him home puts him on his bed and leaves. Hey Nick Tori says you are a good friend I am glad Charlie has you. Nick smiles and looks and closes the door silently so Charlie won't wake up.

It was the next day and Charlie was hungover. How was your night Charlie you drink? No never Mom. She laughs it off and tells him to go catch the bus before I am late. I get to school and I go to lunch and everyone is looking at me. So I heard you and Nick were getting serious in bed yesterday. ISSAC OMG!! I'm sorry I only told them because they were our best friends. It is complicated we love each other but we want time to heal from what has happened. The bell rings and it is time for Charlie to go to math.

Nick walks into math sees Charlie and sits next to him. Hey friend Charlie says and Nick smiles. So would a friend not be able to go on dates? You know I wouldn't hate that idea how about on Friday we go to dinner. Okay sounds great I will meet you there. On the count of three let's say where we went to go okay 1... 2.... 3... Sarahs. Ong, we are twins you read my mind. I hope we're not twins since what we almost did the other night. Nick and Charlie smile at each other and look the other way.

So I guess this means we have a date on Friday. The bell rings and Nick says walking out the door I guess we do have a date then.
