Charles kissing you was a scenario you never thought would happen, until it did. It was electric, yet short lived. The way he pulled you in sent a rush of adrenaline through your bones, yet you pulled away so quickly.

It was wrong. You knew that. But why did it feel so right?

As the two of you sat in silence the fire crackled, an everyday sound in such an altering moment.

“I’m sorry— I didn’t mean to,” Charles spoke up after a moment of silence, his voice coming out in a tone of quiet regret. He knew this… thing you two had wouldn’t go well. He knew you knew that too.
