My tears have dried out by now. I'm staring outside the window, and Charles is focusing on the road. The only sounds we hear are those of the cars around us.

I try to turn the radio on, but as soon as I do, Charles immediately turns it back off.

"Charles-", I say in a wobbly voice.

"We'll talk when we get home", he says, keeping his eyes fixed on the road.

The rest of the ride is silent. We reach the building and go up the elevator, not even looking once at each other.

Charles opens the door to our apartment, and throws his keys on the table. He bites his lip and says angrily yet calmly,

"Okay, Let's talk. I only overheard Cole saying that you talked, and then he kissed you. What I need to know is why, when, and how I still don't know about this."

I tuck my hair behind my ears and sigh. "Cole somehow found out about the wedding a few days ago, so he came here to talk to us. He wanted us to invite him. He wanted to prove that there's nothing weird about him going.", I explain

Charles scoffs at my words, but I ignore that and continue,"You weren't here, and I was stupid enough to let him in as both of us would be together and alone. Everything was fine at first. We chatted, I apologized about not inviting him, and then we- and then he kissed me."

Charles shakes his head. "But you pulled back?"

"I did."

"Okay then-"

"But not at first", I cut him off. My eyes are getting tearful again.

He starts getting angrier, and he raises his voice a bit, "Wait I don't understand. You two kissed because you missed each other, or was it just the setting?"

"I honestly don't know what it was. It just happened."

"Do you still have feelings for him?"

I stay silent as I don't know the answer to that question.

He continues tautly,"No answer? Okay then answer this, do you love me, Cami?"

"What?" Is he being serious?How could he ask me that?

"Do you?" he insists.

"God, Charles! Yes, I do", I almost shout.

He gets up, grabs his keys, and heads outside the apartment.

"Where are you going?" I ask with tears flowing down my cheeks.

"I just need some time to think."

"Are you coming back? Please get back in. I could bake your favorite cookies and we could watch tv and crash on the couch. We can get through this."

He sighs and basically slams the door in my face, not looking back.

My face goes blank. I don't know what to do, so I start tidying up the apartment with soft music playing in the background. I want to forget about what happened just for a few minutes.

I'm sitting with the rest of the cast. They've been really supportive of me. They weren't even mad at me for what I did because they could never blame "true love" or something like that.

"It was always so obvious that you still had feelings for her. I'd constantly catch you staring at her on set back when we were still filming Riverdale", Lili jokes.
