“You are cooking us a candlelit dinner?”
“Charlie, you act as if I have never done this before,” Nick said, rolling his eyes.
“Well, not under these circumstances, you haven’t.”
“Circumstances?” Nick asked, sounding very amused.
“You know, the whole will-he-won’t-he thing.”
Nick huffed out a laugh. “Just dinner, I promise.”
“Really?” Charlie asked, taken aback.
“Really. To be honest, I think I might need a break. You’re hard work. It’s exhausting!”
“But totally worth it,” Charlie said shyly.
Nick pulled him into his arms, and Charlie melted into his boyfriend. “Believe me, I know,” Nick whispered into his ear.
