Authors note: Hello beautiful people!! It was brought to my attention by @AnthonyMcgrath3 that Charlie's family has not been in the picture.
I forgot to mention that in my head Charlie cut off his parents but try to see his siblings when he can. I've now decided to dedicate this chapter to having a reunion of siblings!! Hope you enjoy and thank you
@AnthonyMcgrath3 for helping me out!!

(it's the same day as last chapter)
Charlie's pov:
Nick and I have been cuddling for a while until i check the time and remember Tori is coming over with Ollie to hang out. Now remembering that i only have an hour to clean my house and get dressed.
Nick fell asleep in my lap so i gently play with his hair and brush it off his forehead until he wakes up.
Charlie: "good morning sleeping beauty"
Nick: "shuuuut uppp im tired."
Charlie: "is that really how you talk to the person carrying your child? and when my siblings are coming?"
Nick: "oh shit you're right"
Charlie: "yeah and we only have an hour to get our shit together"
Nick: "fuck"
He says this with a sigh and gets up.
Nick: "i will start with the kitchen, do you wanna fold the laundry?"
Charlie: "yeah it'll be easier on my back"
Nick: "oh your backs hurting?"
Charlie: "a little. it's fine though"
Nick: "are you sure? i can clean up if you just wanna rest."
Charlie: "baby im not gonna make you clean the house while i do nothing besides when does my back not hurt?"
Nick looks at me for a second then sighs realizing i won't rest until this house is clean.
Nick: "ok atleast wait here and i'll get the basket for you."
charlie: "why i can do it myself?"
nick: "i don't want my nine month pregnant fiancé walking up the stairs with a laundry basket. also considering that you are already struggling with going up stairs!"
Charlie: "i love you, know that right?"
Nick: "who wouldn't love me?"
after a second he answers his own question
Nick: "lol my dad"
Charlie: "NICHOLAS NELSON!!"
he runs out of the room and doesn't come back until 15 minutes later with the basket.
(time skip to when they are here)
Charlie's pov still:
We are waiting in the kitchen for them to arrive, all dressed, and nick making a charcuterie board. He's wearing a a t-shirt and basket ball shorts, how the hell he does that in winter? i have no idea. but im wearing his sweatpants and his sweatshirt, hoping it would hide a little more of my belly, and it really doesn't it anything it makes it look bigger but whatever.
Tori and ollie know that i'm pregnant but the last time i really saw them was when i was about 6 months pregnant and i had a small belly! now here we are and i look like an elephant!
We hear the doorbell ringing and i practically sprint to get the door. I open the door to see a concerned tori and a crying ollie (who is 13 in my story). I hug ollie first, he buried his face into my chest-kinda crushing my belly-and all i could do was look at tori with concern.
Tori: "i have no idea we got here and he just started crying..."
she was whispering so the coughing/sniffling ollie couldn't hear.
Charlie: "let's go inside and we can talk"
I feel ollie nod and i hug tori as she comes in.
Nick is still in the kitchen but once he sees ollie crying he comes over and hugs him. Nick being taller, ollie is just below his pecs.
Nick: "hey bud what's going on??"
Ollie: "mom-i can't go back please!"
Nick looks straight as us and we can only look at each other. he leans down to meet Ollie's eyes
Nick: "what did she do? are you safe?"
ollie: "umm well she umm..."
Nick: "you can tell us it's ok. we are going to help you"
ollie bursts into tears again, hugging nick. tori is dialing a child's protection services and i'm rubbing ollie's back.
Charlie: "why don't be sit on couch and i'll get you some water"
Ollie doesn't move until nick lets go and grabs his shoulder gently, leading him to the living room.
Tori is still on the phone and while they leave i go back over to her and she is spilling the situation to whoever is on the phone. all i can hear is that cops are getting sent to our house. the first thing i do is text clover not to come home because it's a mess. she doesn't ask any questions and says she'll stay with a friend.
This day certainly isn't going as planned...
