"This girl who'dbeen Franks only friend for ix years, a few days before we left he told him she loved him, frank saw Harry kissing her and thought she'd lied to him, it's the only reason he came with us"

"I cant sort this one out gee! teh only way is to wait for her to turn up at teh door. what are we going to do with the sobbing frank in teh mean time?! i cant calm him gerard!" said charlie, panic rising in her

"I dont know" Gerard sai eventually "I-I just dont know"

Charlie sat down and put her head in her hands

Gerard hugged her.

Charlie sclosed her eyes for a second before standing up and wiping her eyes from where a few tears had escaped. "You shouldn't be hugging me, frank needs attention not me. I'll be fine. I'm the strong independent one remember?" she said getting a glass and filling it with water

"Dont be like hat Charlie, you're alowed weaknesses as much as the next person"

"No i'm not gee. cos my jobs to look after every one else, no matter what wrong. my jobs to make them feel better, no matter how much what happened to them rips me up inside. I always come last."

Charlie looked up at him. "Now that isnt true. your family and friends should always come first. You always coem first with me, cos i have no family."

"There's the family we're born with and the familyyou create, And you're the center of my latter"

Charlie looked at him. "So you didnt just use me the other day?" said charlie, desperation in her eyes. it had been killing her since the morning when he had treated her liek dirt

"Of course not!"

Charlie stared up at gerard. "honestly?"
