Nick's POV:

Coach told me to ask Charlie if he wants to join the rugby team, I agreed for a few reasons.

1. I get to spend more time with Charlie
2. He'll help the team since he's REALLY fast
3. It might boost his confidence a bit

I get a text from Imogen.

I- "Have you told him yet, about how you feel?"
N- "Not yet, what if it ruins our friendship!?"
I- "I promise you it won't!! If worse comes to worse and he doesn't want to be friends after, then I'll always be here x"
N- "Thanks x"
I- "He's so cute tho! The way he smiles at you, the way he ruffles your hair, HE'S PERFECT!"
N- "SHUT UPPPPPPPPPP!!!! I mean...he is kinda cute"
I- "KINDA CUTE!?!?!? HE'S PRECIOUS!!!"
N- "ok fine. He's cute."
I- "I knew you'd give in 🤣"
N- "Shut uppppp 😭"
I- "💗"
N- "💙"

She always seems to make me smile, even when I don't feel like smiling.

"Nicky, someone is at the door for you." Mum shouts up, I wonder who's at the door at this time of night.

"Hi." It's Charlie. He's holding something. A Nintendo?

"You left your Nintendo at mine last week, I thought I'd come and give it back."

"Thanks! Want to come over in a few days, I want a re-match of Mario Kart! I got distracted!"

I laugh, I got distracted by him. His eyes glimmering in the sun, his curly hair that flops down onto his forehead, his cute little dimples that appear when he smiles, he's perfect!

Charlie waves and runs home.

"Charlie's a nice boy, isn't he? He's always smiling, and always making you smile too!" Mum smiles and walks into the living room.

"Yeah...Anyway, I'm going to bed, night!" I say, trying not to act weird.

Mum just smiles and nods.

I think about Charlie until I fall asleep, nothing else comes to mind except him, his smile, his laugh, his fluffy hair and bright blue eyes. My mind goes blank as I start to fall asleep.

I can't get him out of my mind, no matter what I say or do, I always seem to think of him.

Help.
