Chapter 3

The Christmas and New Year holidays ended very quickly and Nick and Charlie were not ready to go back to school.

"I don't want to come in... Nick, can we please go home?" Charlie was begging Nick to come home.

"Char your mother would kill us" Nick stated laughing seeing Charlie's fake pout.

"But then we can't even go home together because you have rugby" Charlie complained but Nick had an idea.

"Would you like to join the rugby team? We're already full but we can't play without a reserve" Nick asked smiling happily.

"Aren't I a little small and weak?" Charlie wasn't so sure as the rugby boys had been teasing him a lot lately.

"We're just the school team, we're not professionals," Nick reassured him.

"So you also think I'm small and weak?" Nick and Charlie laughed.

“So you're going to join the team?” Charlie agreed and the bell rang so they had to split up to go to their own class.

At lunch Elle introduced them to Isaac, a very shy boy who never spoke and who always had a book in his hand and spent all his free time in the library and spent all his money on books.

The lessons ended very slowly but luckily Charlie didn't run into Harry in the corridors or it would have been the end of him.

When it was time to go to rugby he was very anxious, some afternoons, he played rugby with Nick to make him happy but every time he ended up running away or on the ground.

Nick joined him at the lockers, he knew that Charlie was a very anxious person who worries about everything and makes a thousand paranoias and scenarios about what he could have said or what they could have said to him.

"Everything is okay?" Nick asked him, sensing his anxiety, when one of the two was ill or anxious the other was also ill as a result it was as if they were one person divided into two bodies and with opposite tastes, passions, hobbies and personalities: Nick always cheerful, friendly, good at sports and Charlie closed, shy who hates playing sports.

"Yes, I'm a little anxious but I'll manage" Charlie said confidently

"How about if for the first training I ask the teacher if I can teach you, I mean alone?" Nick asked trying to make Charlie feel less anxious.

"Yes please" They began to walk towards the changing rooms talking about this and that, laughing and making jokes and Charlie lost a bit of anxiety.

"Charlie." Charlie looked up and saw Ben in front of him, very serious as always, no one has ever seen him smile I swear.

"Can I talk to you?" Charlie looked at Nick who looked at him confused, told him with his look that he would explain to him later and told him to start walking and that he would join him, Ben dragged him into an empty classroom.
