HEARTBEAT

11. Out

Charlie's alarm rings and the first thing he sees when he's about to turn it off is a text from Nick.

Nick » Hi ❤️
Charlie » Does being boyfriend's mean sending good morning text?
Nick » Perhaps...

Charlie chuckled at the text.

At Truham Charlie walked in for but didn't see Nick anywhere. Suddenly he felt someone's hands covered his eyes. He knew who it was.

"Nick" Charlie giggled. Nick laughed taking them off to face him. Suddenly Charlie felt him self being dragged by Nick. Nick took his hand and pulled him into an empty classroom. They walked in front of a storage shelf.

"Guess what?" Nick said smirking.

"What?" Charlie chuckled.

"I came out to my mom last night!" Nick said excitedly. Charlie's face literally shining so bright. He's so proud. Charlie wrapped his arms around Nicks neck hugging him tightly which surprised Nick but he then melted into Charlie's arms. Charlie pulled away suddenly.

"Wait... how'd it go?" Nick chuckled looking down shaking his head. "Um..." Nick chuckled softly before looking up.

"It- it went well, she was completely fine with it!" That made Charlie smile even more. He jumped back into Nick's arms and they rocked side to side.

"Want... a well done kiss?" Charlie asked.

'Is that even a question', Nick thought. He was fast to pull away from Charlie, he dropped his bag on the floor.

"Uh! Yeah?!" Nick let out a small laughed. Charlie grabbed Nick's face, and full on slammed him into the shelf they honestly thought it was going to fall over. Nick's eyes widened in surprise at Charlie's actions. Nicks hands flew on Charlie's back as their lips moved in sync.

It felt like they haven't kissed in years, it was honestly desperate. Charlie's fingers were practically tangled in Nick's hair. Nick groaned pulling away.

"Kissing at school is a terrible idea!!" Nick laughed.

But Charlie didn't care, he pulled Nick's face back on his lips, shutting him up. Nick giggle into Charlie's lips.

Tara's House:
Tara was sitting on her bed on her phone. She was honestly tired of hiding Darcy, she wanted people to know. When you really like someone it's like you'll do anything for them.

She was about to post something on to her grid for Instagram. In the captions it said:
'Girlfriends 🏳️‍🌈'

Tara hesitated weather to press the 'post' button. Her thumb literally hovered over it. But then she thought about Darcy and how proud she would be. 'Darcy's worth the risk' Tara thought. So she did it, she posted it. Tara closed out of Instagram quickly, thinking weather or not it was a good idea.

Higgs Grammar:
Tara walked into the gate only to get tackled by Darcy.
