Summary
“Ni-ick!” Charlie exclaimed through exasperated laughter. “No s-word, please. I’m so glad you called. I’m just… surprised. It’s a bit strange to hear your voice after spending 70 days trying to imagine it.”
“You’ve counted the days since we met?” Nick asked with unconcealed awe in his voice. This was so endearing, and just so Charlie that it made his heart soar with affection.
Caught off guard, Charlie let out an embarrassed chuckle before regrouping quickly:
“I didn’t need to,” he denied with levity. “My brain’s a calculator. It can’t be stopped. It’s both a blessing and a curse…”
💬💬

Summary
For the third time in a week Charlie has found a love note in his locker, at first, he thought it was a mistake, maybe someone had accidentally put their note down his locker thinking it was somebody else’s. When he got the second note, his name was neatly written on it, so the possibility of it being a mistake was out of the question. Now, with the third one, he starts to feel his heart fluttering and his eyes glazing over, he’d never received a love note before this week and he’d already gotten three, he just whished he knew who sent them.
