I finally managed to get Charlie away from everyone else for a few minutes.

"So. How was it?" I asked him sitting on the edge of my bed.

Yes we are in my room. He's been here before.

Since you guys didn't already know.

Charlie and I have known each other since we were 2 or something like that.

He was shipped off to the Texas Military Academy halfway through Freshmen year of high school.

Charlie's stepmother is a witch. None of my brothers like her. I don't like her. Charlie doesn't even like her. 

Or her two daughters. 

Their a year younger than us. 

Back to my question. 

"Well, first week was awful. Seeing how I weighed like 180 pounds and such." He chuckled lightly, "Absolutely zero muscle and such. Anyway I caught on a month or so into it. What absolutely sucked though was I couldn't text you every second of the day. They took my phone when I arrived. So we could only make one call every week. But we only had an hour for everyone to make  the call. And there were zero bars. I didn't even bother to call dad." He stopped to catch his breath. "As you can see I've dropped 60 pounds and got these." He lifted his shirt and flashed me his abs. 

My breath got caught in my throat. 

That's what I noticed was different. His biceps and triceps are bigger also. 

I signaled for him to sit next to me. 

He plopped down next to me and turned to face me. 

"I missed you most of all." He grabbed my hand and linked our fingers together. 

"Well, I'm a pretty awesome person. So I would miss me to of course." He smirked at my response. 

Looking down at our hands. He started tracing circles on the back of my hand.

I don't know why I did this but I took my hand out of his and set it in my lap with my other hand. Linking them together. 

Clearing my throat I moved on to the next question. "So. Are you gonna be coming to school?"

"Well yea. I start tomorrow. Since I already missed today. The first day." He rolled his eyes and looked down at his hand. 

Then he looked me in the eyes. 

"Alice. I have a question for you." He said suddenly serious. 

"Oh. Um, okay?" I replied. 

He stood and knelt in front of me taking my hand in his.
