Dedicated tu Du_Tari for being frikin' awesome!

Also dedicated to Whovian_Me because she is the Charlie to my Jace. I hope you find your Peter ;)

Well, this is probably a one off, short, point of view from Charlie. My BFFF, Whovian_Me, wrote this for her character (yes, Charlie is the character that turned out exactly like her, a complete accident by the way J) and I thought it was really good, so I tweaked it  a bit and now I’m gonna stop talking so all of you can actually read it!

~*Charlie*~

Jace and I walk out of school. Well, he walks, I skip. I don’t know why he isn’t skipping, he normally would.

‘What’s up? We’re finally out of the hell hole!’ I laugh as I skip out of the doors and begin down the stairs. ‘Come on, you slow poke!’ I yell back to Jace, turning around. As I turn, my foot gets caught behind the other leg and I feel myself fall sideways. Just before I hit the stairs under me, I shut my eyes and scream. But instead of the hard surface of the stairs under me, I feel strong arms, wrapping around me. I open my eyes, but, when we begin to fall again, I squeeze my eyes shut. I scream and then my breath leaves me in an ‘Uggh’ as we hit the ground.

Charlie! Are you okay??’ Jace yells as he peers down the stairs at me. His face his pale and worried. I scowl at him.

‘Yeah! No thanks to you!’ I yell back, pulling myself up. ‘Than…’ I trail off as I turn around. On the ground, where I landed, is a god. Well, I don’t know if he IS a god, but he sure looks like one! He has gorgeous brown eyes under a pile of brown hair; his face is pale, (but just the right amount, you know?) and he’s skinny, but he had muscle, I felt that through his shirt when he caught me. He was hot.

‘Hey, are you ok?’ he asked. His voice… Wow.

Um... Yeah! Yeah, I’m fine.’ I manage to say, though I don’t know how. This guy has my tongue in knots! ‘Are you ok?’

‘I’m fine, just as long as you’re ok. I’m Peter, by the way. Peter Rowe,’ he holds out his hand. I blink in surprise. When did he get up? Must’ve been while I was dying… I take his hand in mine, tingles shooting all up my spine. I just stand there, my hand in his. He coughs.

‘Oh, right. Charlie’s the name…’

‘Don’t wear it out’ we finish at the same time. I blush.

‘Well…um…thanks for saving me, I guess’ I grin, slightly sheepishly.

‘Yeah, you’re her hero!’ Jace giggles behind me. I shoot him a glare. ‘What?’ he asked, a slightly evil smile creeping across his face.

‘Peter, this is Jace. He’s my best friend and a total Drama Queen...’ I say.

‘Hey.’ Peter waves up at him, Jace waves enthusiastically back. I sigh. That guy is so gay, but I love him for it. ‘Well, I should make sure that you are ok, Charlie, so could I perhaps, take you for a ‘shake?’

‘Oh, no really, you shouldn’t worry about me…’ I stutter. I can feel myself starting to blush. Damn my red hair!

‘Well, you DO owe me… I just save your life,’ he says with a smile. I sigh.

‘Fine… see ya Jace!’ Jace giggles in my ear as he hugs me goodbye and I follow Peter to the Juice Place, which is across the road from school.

We walk in and sit at a booth by the window. ‘And what can I get you two youngsters today?’ the waitress asks. I pick up a menu and quickly scan the names.

‘I’ll have a Choc-mint Swirl with cream,’ Peter says.

‘That sounds good. I’ll have the same, thanks,’ I told the waitress. Once she’s gone, I turn to Peter

‘So, do you do this often? Saving girls’ lives and then taking them out for milkshakes?’ he smiles that beautiful smile and I swear I just died again

‘Na, you were a one-off. I normally kidnap them, take them to another world, save them and then fight Hook before taking the girl back to their house…’

‘You like Peter Pan?’

‘Hell yeah! Best Disney film ever, in my opinion.’

‘I totally agree! Peter Pan is amazing! Ever since I was little I wanted to go to Neverland and fight pirates!’

‘Two Choc-mint Swirls with cream?’ the waitress interrupts. We nod and she sets the drinks on the table. I sip it. Mmm, so good!

‘Oh my god.’ I say. Peter nods. No words needed here

‘It’s my favourite. Get it every time I come here.’ We finish our drinks during our conversation. Sometime later, I check the time.

‘Oh my gosh! It’s five already? I’m so sorry, but I’ve gotta go. I promised my brother that I’d help him paint his room!’ I exclaim as I jump up.

‘Hey, let me walk you. I’m sure he won’t mind if you’re just a bit late.’ Peter pays for the drinks, and we start down the street towards my house.

‘Um…thanks again for saving me… who knows what would’ve happened if you weren't there, Jace is to clumsy to be of any help! And thanks for the shake, as well, Peter. It was really nice of you-’

‘Charlie, there’s something I need to tell you…’ Peter interrupts me.

‘What is it, Peter?’ I ask.

‘I thi-’

‘Char! You’re home! I thought Jace’d-Oh, who’s this?’ Jared asks as he strolls out of the front door and stands in front of us. I can’t help but feel a little put out, can’t he see I’m in the middle of something here?!

‘Peter, this is Jared, my twin brother. Jared, Peter. He saved my life today.’ I reply.

‘Saved your… what? Speak’ Jared demands, just like an older brother. He is the older twin after all, I suppose he feels like he has to act like this on these occasions. I think it’s real sweet of him.

‘Jared, I’ll tell you later. Now, Peter, what were you going to tell me?’ I ask.

‘Oh, nothing, don’t worry about it. I guess I’ll see you around then!’ Peter says. And with that he turns around and walks back off the way we came.

‘Um… Bye! Peter…’ Jared just raises his eyebrows.

‘Spill.’ So I did.
