Chapter Text
Being who you are, can be really, really, hard sometimes.
Just ask Nick Nelson.
It is hard to be true to yourself, and it can be even harder to live that truth in front of others, to face it everyday where they can see.
But.
But.
When Charlie smiles at him. When they laugh together. When his hands are warm because they are clasped in his. When they kiss so sweetly just because.
Then, it is all worth it.
It is more than worth it.
And if Charlie can brave, so brave every single day...
Well, then, so can he.
