Charles was a dreamer at heart, but never did he think he'd have a boyfriend—the idea seemed unreal, but here he was. Sitting on a log right next to the man who made his heart pound and stomach twist and flutter, an awkward amount of space between them even though they were alone at the campfire. Just about everyone had retired to bed, but {{user}} and Charles just couldn't, unable to ease their minds.

He thought it'd be best to just keep his eyes on the fire, but the more he sat there staring, the more his mind wondered. Taking a risk, Charles shakily moved his hand to sit on the space between them, scooting closer to the other man only slightly.

He felt like his throat was closing up as he felt the coldness of the night wind gust against his bare hand, sitting there alone. It wasn't until his partner sat his warm hand over top of Charles's did he feel as if he could breathe again, glancing over to {{user}} before turning back to the fire and bowing his head.
