Charlotte's POV

"Back to Swellview it is." I said as I flung my suitcase across my bed. I threw in everything I bought at the mall yesterday afternoon after Ray bombarded us with Sci-Fi movies.

"Yeah apparently, but I'm actually a little happy." Henry helped me fold some of my clothes.

I thought about going back. Was it going to be different? Was it going to be weird? I mean, Jasper, Henry and I are all friends so..

"How are we gonna tell people that we're dating?" I blurted out.

He shrugged his shoulders.

"Simply just tell them, if they can't tell already." He bopped my nose.

"Okay but it's not as simple as that." I threw my skater skirt into the suitcase.

"What do you mean it's not that simple? Hey What's up guys! Why am I holding her hand? Oh cause we're dating. Easy as pie."

"Yeah but what if our friends think it's weird or what if-"

He walked over to me and put his hands on my shoulder.

"Char, don't overthink it, I promise we will be fine." He gave my shoulders a squeeze and walked back over to the opposite side of the bed.

I sure hope it wouldn't affect anything because I don't have time to deal with craziness.

Craziness.

Bianca.

Oh my gosh, if that girl comes to me or does anything to tamper with our relationship I will personally handle her. I wondered if I should talk to Henry about it...

No. Why jinx it? If it comes out we can talk about it but I'd rather be immersed in our relationship than anything else right now.

"Deep in thought huh?" Henry broke my train of thoughts

"Um kinda, but since we're almost finished with this, you can go get your bags and we'll tell Ray that we're ready." I was basically pushing him out the door.

"You sure?" He asked lifting up an eyebrow.

"Yes, yes it's just some makeup and stuff."

"Okay then, I'll go tell him we're ready."

I closed the door behind him and texted my mom we'd be home soon.

One person I knew I had to tell was Julia.

Julie is my best friend and we met during my freshman year at Swellview High. I really wanted to text her right that second he kissed me, but it was nice to keep this relationship between us for awhile.

So I kept it pretty brief.

Char: BIG news to tell you, I can't believe I didn't tell you sooner😬

Julie: Look who finally decides to text me after like 2 years

Char: 2 weeks and barely that cause I texted you like..a few days ago

Julie: Just spill the beans

Char: It's 'in person' news

Julie: OMG you and hunky hart are dating aren't you???!!

Char: Have I told you you're my best friend?

I heard a knock at the door and I opened it to see Ray.

"Ok let's get your things and skedaddle out of here, Henry's already downstairs."

"Cool." I said rolling out my bags.

Henry's POV
I waited outside by our taxi we had to take straight to the airport. Pretty soon I saw Ray and Charlotte walking up.

"Guess who finally decided to show up." I says crossing my arms.

"Yeah, I wonder who." Charlotte said looking around her, and Ray started laughing. I, personally kept a straight face.

"Okay..not funny." I said frowning a bit.

"But we do need to get these bags in the taxi."

After we boarded the car up, we were in our way back home. Our flight was scheduled to take off in like an hour, so we weren't going to board the plane yet. Instead we hung out in the airport.

I saw Charlotte texting back to back.
It was most likely her best friend telling her that she missed her and girl talk blah blah.

But, I wondered how it was going to be back home. I knew Charlotte was a little freaked out about it so I wondered how she'll handle it. I wonder how I'll handle it now.

It might be weird for our friends. I thought if everyone back home. Including my parents. I still wanna invite her over but will they even let me?

You know what...I won't even stress. Things will be fine, everything's-

PING

My iPhone went off and I got it from inside my pocket.

Bianca: I've missed you.

Oh Great.

Of course! We just broke up like a day or two after I got here. This is going to be annoying.

I simply just slid my phone back in my pocket when it went off again.

PING

Bianca: I know you saw this Hart. But it's all cool.

Ugh. She's gonna drive me insane.
