I Found a Place In My Dreams (Charlie Jones/Over Atlantic)

1.6

Taya's POV

I went straight downstairs after leaving Charlie's room and decided to knock on Sean's bedroom door.

After talking to Charlie, I think I accepted the fact I like him. There was no way I could deny the butterflies I felt in my stomach whenever I spoke to him and the uncontrollable smile I constantly had when I was around him. I just have to tell someone before I explode...

I want to tell to Trevor but I know he'll either get angry or over protective. He already said he doesn't want me getting involved with Charlie in case I get hurt so I can't then go and tell him I like Charlie. He'd be fuming.

"Come in!" I heard Sean say from the other side of the door.

I took a deep breathe and opened the door to be greeted by him laying on his bed, all attention on his phone.
When he noticed I'd walked, he reverted his attention to me and sat up, creating space for me to take a seat.

"Hi Sean.." I said as I took a seat at the end of his bed.

"Hey Taya, are you okay?"

"Erm..no, not really" I said as pity filled his face.

"What's up?" Sean questioned.

"Well, what I tell you can't go any further. Okay?"

"Pinky swear" Sean replied, sticking his pinky out for me to link my own with.

I smiled and linked my pinky with his before letting go and pushing my hair behind my ear.

"Well...I think I- Well I- I like Charlie" I blurted out.

"I KNEW IT!" Sean shouted all of a sudden, causing me to jump in my spot "Sorry! Just remind me to get my fiver from Gabe later.." He continued, followed by a small laugh.

"You bet on me?" I asked in shock.

"...yes"

I shook my head in disbelief though let out a small chuckle at this idea.

"Anyway, you won't be getting your fiver because you're not going to tell anyone!" I instructed.

"That's not fair! Well I'll get it at some point, when you tell Charlie"

"Who said I was telling Charlie?" I asked as I felt my cheeks turn a dark shade of red.

Sean just laughed at me before I spoke up yet again.

"Wait, you said you knew I liked him...how?"

"You are kidding, right? It's so obvious! I don't understand how he hasn't realised yet" he laughed.

I immediately felt a rush of panic as embarrassment filled my thoughts.

"Is it that obvious?" I questioned as I furrowed my eyebrows.

"It is to me, probably not to Charlie though. He's so love struck he can't even see straight..." Sean laughed causing me to blush even more than I already was.

I let out a small yawn which lead Sean to laugh slightly.

"I should go to bed, I'm shattered" I announced.

"Yeah, it is getting quite late. But honestly Taya, I may joke about it but he does really love you, I can see it. Stop doubting yourself and just go for it" he smiled reassuringly.

In return I just said a small thanks before hugging him goodnight and heading towards the door.

As I swung the large white door open, I was greeted by Charlie who was walking into the kitchen.
Charlie gave me a small smile before continuing his way into the kitchen.

When he had his backed turned, Sean gave me a small nudge in the direction of the kitchen gesturing for me to follow Charlie so I could speak to him.

To avoid awkwardness since I knew if I didn't oblige then Sean would make it worse, I made my way into the kitchen.

Sean closed his bedroom door behind me, giving me and Charlie some privacy.

"Are you making hot chocolate?" I asked Charlie as hope filled my voice.

"I'm not but if you want one then I don't mind making you one" he smirked, understanding my love for hot chocolate.

"yes please" I said, making sure to drag out the 'ea' sound in please as I hopped onto the kitchen counter next to where Charlie was standing, making my hot chocolate, letting my legs hang from the side.

He laughed and shook his head at my gesture as I gave him a cheesy smile.

Once he placed the mug of milk into the microwave for a minute and a half, he made his way back over to where I was sat before doing something I didn't expect he would do.

He stood in between my legs and wrapped his arms tightly around my waist before resting his head on my shoulder.
I laughed at his unexpected gesture and hugged him back for what seemed like eternity.

As he pulled away, he made sure to stay standing in between my legs and kept his hands on my waist as I kept my hands gently placed on his shoulders.

Our faces were currently around ten centimetres apart and I could feel his breathe on my face.

He looked deep into my eyes as they flickered around my face, lingering at my lips.
I did the same as I noticed him ever so slightly biting his lip. I slowly moved my hands to the back of his head and neck as I felt him slowly leaning in closer.

His hot breathe lingered on my lips as he got even closer. Just as he was about to attach his lips to mine, a beeping noise alerted us both causing each of us to jump. Damn.

We awkwardly laughed as we both realised what just happened. Charlie rubbed the back of his neck and made his way over to the microwave.

He soon finished making my hot chocolate and insisted on carrying it upstairs for me since he didn't want me to burn myself, alongside the tea he made himself.

I thanked him as he placed the drink on my bedside table before slowly making his way out of the room, looking back as if he was going to say something but deciding against it and leaving the room.

What was it he kept wanting to tell me?
