Part one

Charlie's pov:

It is 7 in the morning and soon I have to get up to go to school. Lucky I live alone, at least I don't have to hear my parents Argue about me faking my mental health here and there , I have my sister tori come over to make sure that I am ok and eating well and sometime when she come she bring our little brother oliver so he can see me because he loves me so much and he really hates it that I'm not in the same house anymore but I feel like not being in that house has helped my mental health a bit.

A few days a week Ben, my boyfriend, stays to sleep at my house, practically invites himself but for me it is not a problem. He and I have been together for almost 2 years. I love him and he loves me too; even if he hardly ever gives it to see, I know that he cares and loves me.

I get out of bed and decide to wash and dress and then have breakfast. I wear black ripped jeans and a blue hoodie and white converse. I head down to the kitchen and prepare breakfast, while I hear the door of the house open violently and slam against the wall. I get up and see Ben completely drunk with the bottle of tequila still in his hand. It's not the first time that he presents himself in these conditions, but it's not a problem, a lot of people love drinking alcohol.

"Love, I'll take it" I say, taking the bottle of vodka from his hands. The glass of the bottle is almost frozen due to the cold outside the house and the warmth of my hands melt it.

"What the fuck are you doing?!!" He pushes me against the wall. Yes, sometimes he can be a bit rough but this is also part of the person, certainly he's not the only one.

"Sorry I just thought..."he stops me kissing me on the lips as if he hadn't seen me in years

He had no intention of breaking away from the kiss and I know he wants more, but it's late and I have to go to school. He has a firm grip on my arms and will probably leave me bruised

"Not now" I put a hand on his chest to push him away and he looks at me with an expression full of anger

" You are an asshole! You never want to do shit, you pussy!" he yells at me and goes to the sofa throwing himself on it, not even a minute later he's already sleeping soundly.

You will think that he is a bad person, but in reality he can sometimes be very kind and sweet, he shows very little, but as I already said it's subjective. In this case, it's the alcohol that speaks. I'm sure he doesn't mean a word he said.

I'm on the bus with my headphones and the music that lulls me during the journey. I'm listening to someone you love by lewis capaldi. I love slow songs in the early morning. I know that energetic songs are more recommended but I work in reverse, in my way. Music has long been a huge part of my days, and now that I'm happy with Ben and my best friend, I don't feel like leaving it.

I'm walking calmly towards the school entrance when I feel a hand touch my shoulder, I turn around and who can be but my best friend?!

"Hi nicky" he turns to me with one of the most beautiful smiles. Over the years I have come to know him so well that I've understood that he has three types of smiles: one for embarrassing situation one forced and one only exclusively for me

"Hi charlie" he leaves me a kiss on the cheek and i smile at the contsct of his warm lips on my cold cheek. He warps his arm around my shoulder and hugs me knowing that i'm freezing, so we make our way to our class

nick nelosn is my best firend. We've known each other sincd we were 4 years old and we always beed very close. he's a really nice guy and he's incredibly sweet. the thing I love the most about him are his eyes and forelock, but more his beautiful eyes with gorgeous lashes. Overall. however, he is a really beautiful guy.
He and I have always said everything; when my dad died, he stayed in my house for two weeks and cuddle and slept with me because he knew I was going to have nightmares. When I found out I was gay he was the first person I told it to. I knew he would accept me and he did. After my mom, he was the secound person to whom I spoke about all the doubts I had about wath would happen if I had a relationship with a boy and the possibility of having sexual intercourse ir something close. Right away I was very uncertain whether to tell him or not, because he was not gay and therefore, in return, i would not receive any respons. After giving me some time to think about it, he made an appontmen for me at a clinic. That day he came with me to talk to a very nice lady, who immediately made me feel at ease; all my doubts didappeared and the ideas were much cleaer then before. I will never be grateful enough for everything he has done for me.

He was my first crush, obviously I didn't tell him this because he is straight and therefore he would never reciprocte, in the end it was a passing crush and now I have a boyfirend and he has a girlfirend. his girlfirend is called imogin, she;s not very nice and doesn't treat him as she should, this thing bothers me, but he seems to lover her and as long as he's happy it's okay.

Fortuately for us, we're in class together. upon enrollmen, there was the option of inserting a classmate with whom you wanted to be in class together and we didn't even think about it for a split second and put each other names on the form.

Hours with nick go by fast, he makes me have too much fun! He always makes noises to the teachers even when he tries to sound serious he's actually funny! The only lessons that goes slowly are those of mathmatics, I do not understand absoulutely anything! But as long as he is with me, everything is fine.

hope you all will enjoy this story and don't mean to make imogen look bad i absolutely love her. vote and comment if you like the story <3
