A Hard Day

Charlies POV:  *College AU, everyone is in college together!*

I had 1 more class today and already wanted to die. Today was fucking terrible so far. 

Nick, my boyfriend, decided to party with his "mates" and texted me drunk off his ass last night. He said some mean shit and then came to our shared dorm late. I ended up leaving extra early this morning so I wouldn't have to see him. He's been blowing up my phone since this morning and I haven't answered one. 

One of my best friends, Tao, decided to delete our ENTIRE project that's due in two days and hasn't even said sorry. 

To add to this mess, I lost my textbook that costs $200 and I can't afford to buy a new one. 

I'm currently sitting in a cafe silently crying in the corner with my PSL and computer in front of me, trying to start on this project again. My phone is going off and it's Nick. I decided to pick up my phone.

I look up from my phone and see Nicholas staring at me. He's wearing grey sweatpants and a white tank top with a flannel thrown over it. His hair is all over the place yet the sun still makes his red hair shine. 

He runs up to me and sighs, running his hand through his hair. 

"What", I say. 

"Please lets talk about it," Nicholas says as he puts his hand out. I sigh and start to put all of my stuff in my bag. 

"Why not" I think to myself.

I throw my bag over my shoulder and grab Nicholas's hand, letting him drag me out to his car his father gifted him. The ten minute ride to our dorm was silently with a few grunts from Nicholas. Once we arrive I open the car door and walk towards the door to our apartment. I walk in and sit on the sofa. The house is cleaned and has a candle on a warmer so it smells like pumpkins. 

Nicholas sits beside me and rubs the back of his head. 

"Look Char, I didn't mean any of that. Me and the boys had too much to drink and were messing around. They got me mad and I took it out on you when you texted me. I know I was in the wrong and I'm so sorry. Please forgive me, I'll never do that again." Nicholas said as he held my hands. 

I looked between him and our intertwined hands. I guess I was harsh. But he was still in the wrong. 

"Look Nicholas. I forgive you, but you were in the wrong, even if you were drunk. You had no reason to say all of that to me." I responded to him as I wiggled my hands out of his.  I could tell he was shocked that I didn't call him Nick and knew how upset I was. 

"I know. I'm so sorry. I'll do anything to go back in time and change that." He says, looking as if he was going to tear up any moment.

I nodded my head. He opened his arms and I laid on top of him, burrowing my head into his neck. 

Now what about that project.
