CharmingWaterfall

sighs heavily Damn it, Charming. I just can't stand the thought of someone taking advantage of you. I wish I could trust him, but I just can't.
CharmingWaterfall
you’re too scared to trust anyone because of what happened with your dad
runs a hand through his hair in frustration Yeah, maybe you're right. It's hard for me to trust anyone else after everything that's happened.
CharmingWaterfall
i’ll talk to him and tell him we can’t see eachother anymore..voice breaking
grabs CharmingWaterfall's shoulders No, don't do that. I'm sorry if I've been pushing too hard. It's just... I can't lose you too.
CharmingWaterfall

CharmingWaterfall

CharmingWaterfall

takes a deep breath and looks down It's more complicated than that, Charming. My dad... he wasn't who you think he was. He was involved in some shady stuff...
CharmingWaterfall

pauses, looking conflicted He was involved in some illegal activities, Charming. I didn't know until recently, but...
CharmingWaterfall

CharmingWaterfall
