A Story by FaeryQueen

"Gum?"
"No thanks, on a diet"
I know it was lame, and possibly a dumb thing to say, but here I am, talking to this guy who I vaguely remember, trying to spark a connection.
"So, your names Charlie, huh?"
I nodded.
I know it's been a while since I've done this, but I suddenly have the urge to grab him and kiss him.
For everything he's done... You know?
He's done so much... Yet he doesn't even know it.
"Funny name, really, my Uncle's name is Charlie..."
I turned in my seat to look at him, we were in a police station, and somehow Molly and Chelsea managed to escape... AGAIN! But this time, with Sally. They were somewhere on The Bridge by now.
JoJo was safe, when I realized she wasn't interviewed by the sheriff OR officer John, I almost cried.
We had the papers, John was revising them, just so he knows it's legit.
"Hey Charlie, johns calling you!"
The boy said. I nodded, got up, and waved to him as I slowly walked to the back of the station, thinking about JoJo.
