    Summary

    Charlie has an interview for a job he really wants. He starts to spiral as he thinks about it, tries to prepare. It does not go well. Until it does.

    CW: self harm references and consideration, panic attack

    [story is told in alternating PoV: Charlie’s, then Nick’s, then Charlie’s.]

    EXCERPT:
    Charlie looks around the kitchen, then back at Nick. His eyes are starting to uncloud. “Nick,” he says. “You’re here.”

    “I’m here,” Nick says again. He will say it again and again. Forever, if he needs to. Forever, because he wants to.
