"Wait, did I say that out loud?.." Charles was shocked at himself, and his face was bright red. The soldiers stared at him, wide-eyed. "We were just joking... But you do?" one of them said. "Wow, that's bullsh*t." The other one began. "Your in love with that criminal? I can't believe it.." He scoffed. Charles was about to protest, but he couldn't deny it. "You two better not tell anyone..." Charles muttered, just loud enough for the two soldiers to hear, stood up and left. Charles was muttering the same word to himself under his breath multiple times as he spoke to himself; "Stupid, stupid, stupid!" He finally calmed down, and flew his helicopter back to the base. Charles landed his helicopter and started thinking to himself, and what the two soldiers he was talking to would do. "Oh well, I shouldn't worry about it too much." He told himself and got out of the helicopter. He looked up at the setting sun, which was leading to a pitch black darkness and only light from the moon and stars. Charles leaned against his helicopter, trying to think things out. What was he going to do if the soldiers revealed it to everyone? He didn't want that to happen, he couldn't let anyone know he was in love with a criminal, then who knows what they would do about it. He wished he could fly his helicopter away, into the sunset, with Henry. He wanted to find him again, and he knew just where to look. He got in his helicopter again and started it.
He landed his helicopter and got outside of it, then he remembered. He had Henry's phone number! "Oh yeah..!" Charles said, opening his phone. It wasn't that long ago since they last talked, it was almost like if Henry liked him back. He asked Henry: "Hey! Where are you?" he stared blankly at the screen for a few moments, before a message popped up. "I'm at XXXX-XXXX. You miss me?" Charles knew Henry was mocking him, but he didn't care. He just laughed. "Yeah, I guess I do." He replied, rolling his eyes. "I knew it." Henry's reply showed up. "Come and get me." Another message appeared. "Stop it!" Charles replied before putting away his phone. He smiled started heading north from where he was at. Charles looked around, and crept into an alleyway. He looked in front of him, Henry was in front of him, holding something in his hand, leaning against a wall. "Henry! I missed you!" Charles ran up to him and hugged him. Henry let out a "Tsk" of laughter as Charles let go of him. "So, uh, I got some bad news.." Charles said, looking at him nervously. "Er.. Yeah, uh... two soldiers know that, uh, we are comfortable with eachother, and that, er..." Charles couldn't speak properly around Henry. Henry seemed to understand though, nodding and looking in another direction, looking as if he were plotting something bad. And if you know Henry, he probably is. "So, uh... what are we gonna do?" Charles asked. "Well, we're gonna give make sure they stay quiet." Henry signed to him, smirking. Charles couldn't contain some laughter from escaping his mouth at the plan. The alleyway got darker as they talked, the sun setting and the moon rising. The moon shone dimly through the alleyway, and turned Charles' headphones from a bright red to being coated in silver-gray light. "C-Can we, uh... meet here, uhm.. everyday?" Charles asked Henry. Henry nodded. "Okay, cya tomarrow! Same time!" Charles left the alleyway, and started to walk back to his helicopter. "If only he knew how much I loved him..." He sighed, excited to see him the next day.
