He was leaving. He was definitely leaving now. He'd said his goodbyes and lurked around long enough to try to get another glance at Charlie but now he was just desperate.
"What's wrong with you?" he wanted to ask himself. He would, tomorrow. When Neville would wake up in the morning, he'd know it was some Christmas fluke and nothing was going to come out of it.
It'd definitely help him procrastinate for his next plant project.
"There you are… " a whispered voice nearly gave Neville a start.
"Charlie," Neville whispered in return. "I'm leaving."
"I see that."
Neville, physically tired and mentally exhausted from the ordeal of the evening - unable to think straight or even understand what was happening, shrugged and turned around to walk away.
"Wait… " Charlie said, pulling on Neville's arm. "Can I go with you?"
"What?" Neville heard himself snap. It was unintentional but Charlie cringed just the same.
"The house's too crowded and I just need some space from everyone."
"Um… " Neville hesitated.
"Don't worry, I won't try to kiss you again."
"Right… "
"I'll sleep on your sofa. I just need to get out of here."
"Sure," Neville said, wishing Charlie would kiss him again.
