Rhythm Thief Fanfiction"Hes Who?"

Rude Awakening

Charlie's POV

I woke up with a fright, my heart beating rapidly.This wasn't uncommon either.It was another nightmare coming to haunt my life.I shutter remembering the events that took place.This wasn't a nightmare.

It was a memory

Flash back commence
I sit quietly on the couch in our house,waiting for father to come home.He had recently lost his job due to using his position as a police officer to intimidate a civilian for personal goals.latley he's been job hunting,but to no avail.it was infuriating for him to lose his job because she now held no authority to investigate and go after Phantom  R.We both new the constables could not find their own offices,much less catch a thief on Phantom R's level alone.

It had been tough times nowadays since father no longer had a job to support us with.We barley have enough money to feed ourselves,much less pay the bills.My friends have been supporting through my problems,thick or thin.Their support really helps in times like these.I have a crush on urbain,but I'm way to shy to tell him.

Slowly,my friends have left.they've either started hating me,moved away,forgot about me,or have only been using my father's position as an officer and me being his daughter to intimidate people. the only friend I have left is urbain,and even I am starting to have doubts.My father is always there after school to cheer me up.I mean, he's the only  person I completely trust.

I waited....and waited...and waited....

...but nobody came

It was 2 o'clock in the morning when I heard the door opening.I saw father,but....he looked different."father were have you be-"I suddenly felt something smack my cheek."DONT TALK TO ME"yelled father,as he pushed me to the ground."this is all your fault,ALL OF IT!"he yelled as I backed away to a corner for protection"and now"he started,holding a bottle of beer in his hand"...is time for your punishment."

End of flash back

I felt tears running down my as I remembered what things used to be like.Urbain has a girlfriend.I was so lost in thought that I didn't notice Raphael until he was infront of me"Charlie...is everything alright? Are you okay?what happened "he asked worriedly.I did not respond, instead putting my face to his shoulder and crying ten times harder." There there,let it all out.everything will be fine"he said.

And he somehow made me believe that.even if things felt hopless,Raphael could probably find a way to cheer you up."Charlie,for me to completely help you,I needs you to tell me what's going on."if anybody else asked that question i would say nothing but I thought.no,I knew that I could trust him.

I told him everything,and I mean everything.he was a good listener too,never once saying anything.when I was finished telling him,he looked sympathetic."come on Charlie,let's go to the cafe,on me."he said.I took his offer and pretty soon we were walking out of his apartment to the streets of Paris.

I felt better,like life may get better.there was always hop
