CHARLIE POV

Liam was pacing back and forth, his face contorted in a serious expression, one that did not suit his usual happy, joyful mannerism. It was at moments like these where Charlie had made himself small.

He had cocooned up into a ball of blankets, afraid that Liam would snap just as his mother had. He was used to being the scapegoat, but he was praying it wasn't going to be the same with his boyfriend. He didn't dare to speak, staying very still, making his breathing shallow and quiet.

Liam quickly turned to him when Charlie accidentally choked, his frown morphing into an expression of concern as he hurried to Charlie, gently hugging him and nuzzling his cheek in Charlie's hair. "Hey baby, you okay?"

Charlie stiffened in his arms, looking up at him with fear before relaxing and nodding curtly, still weary of his partner. Liam sensed this and gently snuggled him back onto the couch, making sure he was comfortable, though a frown had found a place on his face at this point. "Did I do something wrong?"

Charlie quickly shook his head, holding the blanket very close to himself. "N-no, I just don't like it when people are angry.." He looked up at Liam with vulnerability, praying that this temporary anger was not Liam's true self.

"Oh baby.." He gently lowered himself to the couch and brought Charlie in for another hug, his warm embrace removing all the terrible thoughts Charlie was feeling now that they were next to each other.

"It's okay." Charlie forced a little smile as he lifted his arm out of his cocoon and gently started petting Liam's hair, playing with the soft strands and scratching near the back of his head. He closed his eyes and smiled as he snuggled his head into Charlie's neck, hugging him tight as he left himself enjoy the much needed pets. "Is there something wrong?"

"Mmm, yeahhh." His words were slurred and laced with sleepiness, evidence of his lack of sleep the previous night. "Goin' with mum today 'n I'm gonna meet the meanie." Liam giggled a little to himself before nuzzling his nose with Charlie's, their eyes meeting together with joy accident in their expressions. "I love you, my special boy."

Charlie blushed and giggled as he playfully pushed Liam away, though he made sure he didn't fall off the couch. That wouldn't be very good.

"Are you pushing me?" Liam made a '>:0' face and then attacked Charlie in kisses, peppering them all over his cheeks, neck, forehead, and especially his nose.

They sat there, giggling and snuggling together, all previous worries forgotten.

"Liam? Are you ready?" Liam's mother entered the living room, looking around before looking at them and chuckling to herself. "You silly love birds. Do you still want to come, Liam?" He nodded and got off of Charlie, though was held back by his little hands reaching out to grab his shirt sleeve.

"Can I come?" Charlie gave his best puppy eyes, really wanting to be there to see the beautiful restaurant that Ms. Greenlee and Mia owned.

"Are you sure? Ashford's gonna be there, and he's not so nice."
