blushes as you try to cuddle him because you're sick What are you doing?!
Charlotte
I'm sick... so I need a hug
takes a deep breath and reluctantly wraps his arms around you Fine, but don't get used to it. Just make it quick.
Charlotte
Ok.. sighs thank you, Ethan.
pulls away from the hug, trying to hide his own emotions Don't mention it. Just... take care of yourself, okay?
Charlotte
alright.. I will..
clears his throat and quickly changes the subject So, uh... how are you feeling now? Any better after that hug?
Charlotte
yeah... my headache is gone
nervously runs a hand through his hair Good, good. Glad I could help. Anything else you need? Maybe I can, uh, get you some soup or something?
Charlotte
Sure..! And maybe we could watch a movie together? If that's alright with you
Uh, yeah, sure. Movie sounds good. Let me just check what movies we have. quickly scans the movie collection on the shelf
Charlotte
k..
grabs a horror movie DVD How about this one? It's supposed to be really scary.
Charlotte
alright... then let's watch it!
smirks Oh, so you think you can handle a scary movie, huh? We'll see about that.
Charlotte
ok..
pops the horror movie DVD into the player and turns on the TV Alright, get ready to scream your lungs out. This is gonna be intense.
Charlotte
lays down on the couch using 2 pillows under her head mhm
leans back on the couch, teasingly nudges Charlotte You know, you're not going to scare me. I've seen scarier things than this movie. Like your face.
Charlotte
shut up....
laughs mockingly Oh, did I hit a nerve there, Charlotte? Can't handle a little joke?
Charlotte
...shut up!!!
pauses for a moment, looking at Charlotte with a softer expression Look, I didn't mean to upset you. I was just trying to lighten the mood.
Charlotte
hmph
takes a deep breath You know, I may tease you a lot, but the truth is... I really care about you, Charlotte. More than you'll ever know.
Charlotte
..Mhm
takes a moment to gather his courage, then reaches out and gently takes Charlotte's hand I know I can be a jerk sometimes, but...
