TW: mention of miscarriage

Charlie's POV

I've realised that I'm not freaking out as much anymore. Falling for Nick feels as natural as breathing, there's something so special about him and I already feel like I've found my person.

The short time we've known each other feels irrelevant. I don't like to talk about my past, but with him it all came out so easily. He made me feel safe, like he wanted to know everything.

We were completely vulnerable with one another and I didn't hesitate to let him in. He didn't shy away when he learnt what a mess I really am. He welcomed it with open arms, accepting me for who I am, physical and metaphorical scars included.

At quarter to three, I'm at Ezra's classroom door. It means I have to wait fifteen minutes but it's so worth it to watch Nick.

The classroom windows open so I get to hear him in full teacher mode. He's so sexy but also adorable, the way he interacts with the children makes my heart flutter.
