Cecilia's POV

It hurt me to know Charlie actually loved someone! But I guess I assumed that he could only love me but in reality he meets so many girls so I don't have a chance.... I didn't say a word though.

As he started the car he asked, " Why are you so silent?"

"Nothing. I just don't talk much."

"As far as I remember..... You used to talk so much. I had to tell you to be quite." He laughed.

"Yes. But that was High School. You still remember all this stuff?"

"Mom told me.. So what if it was high school...you can still have fun..."

I laughed..

"Okay Mr. Puth!"

"Here's your home, Miss Jones."

"Come in." I said as I got off.

"You sure?"

"Yes yes... Come in."

So we both went in my "house".

"Do you want something to eat or drink?"

"No I'm fine. Thanks." He said picking up my dresses off the floor.

"Oh my god. Leave it. Just-just sit down." I said embarrassed and taking away my dresses from his hand.

"Its alright. You could use a hand here. How do you even stay here?"

"Don't have an option.... Thanks."

"You know. You don't have to stay here....." He said looking around the place.

"Easy to say..."

"No.. You can stay at my home.."

"You will be gone. What will I do staying there..."

"Wait for me..."

I laughed.

"Wait for you??! To discover me again?"

"I'm sorry I really didn't do that on purpose." He whispered.

"Its alright..."

There was a silence. Comfortable silence before any of us spoke.

"Well. I'll see you soon..." He said getting up.

"Yeah.." I said as we headed to the door.

"Bbye."

"Bye.."

"Cecilia...."

I turned back. He kissed my cheek.

"Bye."

"Bye."
