Only a few months ago was I writing about what I wanted to tell Charlie, how to tell Charlie, but that's all over now. I don't even know how he and I were good together, I mean, we're best friends, not lovers.
Who the hell am I trying to kid. I love that man, and he loves me, we're just having some problems. Right? Problems? Ah!!! I want you back Charlie!
I have been trying since the night he left me to get him back. I've done everything I could think of. From sending him notes, to talking to him face to face, from telling Luis to tell him….. He doesn't want to listen. I can barely get a glance from him now. My life's a living hell without that man. How can I love him so much?.....
~Adam~
He read over his last passage, rereading and rereading, not being able to see where he went wrong in trying to get Charlie back. "Guy?" Adam asked looking over to the other side of the empty room. That's right, Guy didn't live with him anymore, and he was on his own in L. A.
Adam reached over to the nightstand, grabbing the phone off the cradle it laid on; he punched in the now familiar numbers.
"Hello?" The person on the other side of the line picked up.
"Jarred…" The voice was chocked.
"Adam? Is that you?" Jarred asked quickly.
"Yeah…"
"What's wrong, man?" Jarred asked, the concern in his voice ringing through Adam's ears.
"Where did I go wrong, Jarred? What did I do that would make him stop loving me?" Adam asked chocking on every word he spoke. He brought his right hand to his eyes, wiping them as best as he could.
"Adam…" Jarred sighed. "Listen to me, okay?" He waited for Adam's response before continuing. "You did nothing wrong, baby bro. You love him and that's all you can do. And he still loves you..." He waited for the question he knew would come.
"How do you know?" Adam asked, crying harder now, almost near sobs.
"Because I can see it in his face." Jarred said.
"You can what?" Adam asked. That was the different from Jarred's normal answer 'Because you're both in love.'
"Because I'm looking him in the eye as we speak." Adam dropped the phone onto the cradle and ran to his computer, quickly booking the reservation for a flight to New York where his brother was.
Adam grabbed a few belongings, basically his sneakers, keys, and wallet. He ran out the door still trying to put his sneakers on, tripping on the steps to get to the ground floor of his apartment building. He took his cell phone out of his pocket and called Jesse, asking him to look after his pets, Jesse said he would and hung up after double checking that he had the key to Adam's apartment.

"What happened?" The sniffs came closer and closer together, signaling that the man was about to break into tears.
"He hung up." Jarred answered. "Charlie, don't worry. I'm glad you came to me, and I know, I know, that my brother will be here later today. So what do you say, instead of me letting you mope around, we go pick up my brother things he will need."
"What do you mean?" Charlie asked using a tissue from the box next to him to clear his nose and wipe his cheeks.
"This is my brother, Charlie. He probably just ran out of the house with his shoes, wallet, and keys, he'll need something if he's going to be in New York for a while." Jarred smiled at him when Charlie broke into a small laugh.
"Let's go." Charlie sniffed one last time before following Jarred out of the dorm room.

A.N. Okay, so I'm getting back into the Ducks trend. It took me a while, but I'm back and at full force, well maybe not full force, but I'm working on it! Anyway, I started this sequel not the way I wanted it before, so I deleted it and now, finally came up with an idea I could use. I know it's been a while but I think I remember how to do this now….. Bye!

P.S. Thanks to melody, the author of two of my favorite stories (realization and us against the world {sequel to realization}) for making me promise to write the sequel when she wrote the 20th chapter to realization. More like I said I would and she agreed, but whatever. She held up her end by getting that chapter up and now I hold up mine by writing the sequel, though it is very short as of yet.
