This Was All Him

It had been about four days since the whole robbery incident and Charlie was living off of Kaya's clothing and the rest of the guy's food. Of course it had set in that she lost everything, but holding her head up high is what she did best.

"So I saw the landlord this morning." Ki tried as the two entered the elevator.

After a long day of filming they were all released at the same time. And for some reason, Ki waited outside her trailer for her. She didn't question it, no. Not after what had happened. The boys had come up with this bold conclusion that someone one had it out for charlie. That's why it was just her apartment. It could have been anyone elses. But no, it was hers.

"And what did he say?"

"Well, they redid your bedroom and bathroom already. Wanna take a look at it?"

With a long breath, she stepped out of the elevator and glanced towards her fixed door. "I don't know, maybe another time."

"Oh come on, he said to check it out and see if you like it. They redid the entire thing for you! Come on!" Ki grabbed ahold of her wrist and began tugging her towards her door.

"Ki I don't want tooooo." Practically dragging her feet against the hallway floor, she leaned away from him and dropped her head backwards.

"Oh yes you do." He grunted while opening her door. "you're just to stubborn to admit it."

The room was dark and cool. So as soon as he flipped on the lights, it was easy to say charlie was taken off guard. "surprise!" The gang all yelled, Dylan's voice of course the loudest.

Her living room, it was back to normal. No broken glass, no shattered furniture. She immediately stood straight and broke her contact with Ki. "oh my god.. guys this-"

"Wasn't supposed to be done until next month." Thomas agreed.

"But thanks to our sweet little Britt." Dylan hugged Kaya tightly, "we were able to make it top priority."

"Thank you.." she looked around with a smile.

"And these guys wanted to cover the whole clothes situation." Kaya stepped forward wrapping her arm around Charlie's shoulder. "but lucky for you, I called Dibs."

"You guys honestly are the best." She hugged Kaya tightly. "thank you"

"Oh but fair lady Sanders." Dylan mocked Thor's voice. "there is so much more." peeking away from Kaya, she looked to the boys. "sir Thomas! If you would do the honors."

As Thomas nodded and walked towards a bag on the table, Kaya whispered into her ear. "this was all him."

Confusion washed over her immediately.

Grabbing ahold of the bag, he set it at his feet and pulled out the first item. "well Dylan went and got a new frame for this." Handing it over, she happily took the new intact picture frame. It was of her and her mother and father. There didn't seem to be any damage. "and I went down to the nearest fabric store." Then, he handed her the black dress. It was her mother's.

The torn edges, ripped seams, and stained cloth were all gone. She took it with an unbelievable look upon her face. "oh my god..." her throat tightened.

"This too." He pulled out the restitched leather jacket.

"And then!" Dylan continued running over to the wall. On it was a frame, a blanket of some sort covering it. Once it was ripped off though, she could see her father's flag intact and in a shiny new frame. "tadaaa!"

Both him and Ki presented it with bent knees, smiling faces, and shimmying hands.

Kaya stepped forward to swat the back of Dylan's head alongside will, meanwhile Thomas stayed with Charlie. "you guys are unbelievable.." then, throwing herself into Thomas's chest, she buried her head deep and closed her eyes. "thank you so much" immediately he could feel the tears on his shirt.

He was quick to wrap her in a hug back. Soon enough, everyone was joining in into a group hug.

"Well, now that it's all back together..." dylan grinned Emily.

Ki however, finished it for him. "sleep over!"

Everyone rushed out quickly but Thomas and Charlie. Instead of letting him go, she hugged him tightly again. "thank you Tommy."

"Absolutely love. Anything for you."

Staying that way for a while, charlie finally let out a long breath. "fuck it."

Then, standing on her toes, she pressed her lips against his hard. At first Thomas was taken back, but with a grin across his face, he responded by pulling her closer.

At the frame of the door, dylan and Kaya sat crouched with a smile on their faces. With no words, and no sounds each fist bumped one another out of happiness. They did it... they got Sangster and Sanders together.
