the_tao.xu: So... I heard same-sex couples are not allowed, apparently 😶

its_elles_universe: W H A T ?

i.henderson: Are you serious?

the_xu.tao: It's mental, I was shocked af when I heard it


Charlie didn't even text anything. 



When Nick heard about it, he was definitely not very happy about it.

"Everything alright, Nicky?", asked Sarah.

"No, mum, not at all. Apparently I am not allowed to ask my boyfriend to Prom cause only straight couples are allowed to go."

"What? You can't be serious, Nicky"

"It's true, just heard about it from Sai. So if I'm supposed to just ask a random girl, I'm not going. The fucking Prom can go to hell"

"Words, Nicky! So are you just gonna give up then?"

"What else can I do?"

"That doesn't sound like you, dear"



darcytheegg: You just gotta be fucking kidding me if I can't bring my girl Jonesy to Prom!!! Fuck Truham, Higgs and the whole Britain 😡😡😡

imogen.heaney: WTF we just can't leave it like this, I mean, this is unacceptable. Happy to help in whatever way I can

its_elles_universe: We should ask the guys, this is a big matter and we should stick together

tara_jones_xo: Darce, calm down, I am so upset too, but this will get us nowhere

im_sahar.zahid: We're gonna make them regret this stupid thing, mark my words



sai_verma_: Just told Nick about the fucking Prom shit 😤😤😤

otissmith00: I wanna punch someone in the face right now. WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?

christian_mcbride: If I can't bring my boyfriend, I'm not going 😒😒😒

nick_nzzzz: Same here. Ughhh I hate this so much, I'm not sure I should even talk to Char about it cause i'll probably end up making it worse I HATE THIS 🤬🤬🤬


Cause Nick knew Charlie was not at his best at the moment. They've talked about it before, he experienced some hard periods from time to time. Mental health issues are so hard to deal with sometimes, and Charlie had gotten better, and stronger, and just the bravest person Nick had ever known. But now, he wasn't feeling very much like that. He tried to hide it and pretend everything was fine, but they were so close to each other at this point that Nick just knew.

Nick wasn't Charlie. He didn't have to deal with all the stuff Charlie had to deal with, he wasn't even sure he'd been able to get through it as bravely as Charlie did. And Charlie usually knew what to say to him when he was feeling down. He wished he'd be the same.

Charlie was the most important person in his life, and he had to help him as his boyfriend in the best way he could. Both of them got in their head at times, but they just did it in a different way. And sometimes he wasn't always sure how to approach him or how he should act to confort him and make him feel safe and loved as he definitely was.
