✦ LUCIEN LAVISCOUNT, CIS MALE, HE/HIM ✦ CHARLIE ABBOTT the TWENTY-EIGHT year old has been in Hidehill for HIS WHOLE LIFE and was a ONE NIGHT STAND to Miyeon Kang, the murder victim. Whispers on the streets are that the RUNNING BACK FOR THE TENNESSE TITANS who lives in HARLOW ESTATE are said to be FUNNY and ARROGANT but I guess we’ll find out for ourselves. { DANI, 26, GMT, SHE/HER. }
Charlie grew up in Hidehill his entire life, he grew up in his family home in Horwick to his parents Denise and Leonard.
He has one younger sister and one older brother.
Charlie has always been a loud mouth, cocky child who constantly was up to no good.
In school he would be the kid who lived in detention, could never focus in class and the only thing he really excelled in was physical education. He got his highest grades there, made it onto the sports teams but his favourites were football and basketball.
He was considered a class clown, he got on with most people just not everybody. He would often get into fights in school and had no issues starting them if needs be.
He dated Brielle in school, she was the first person he truly could imagine a life with even though the two of them were young. She was probably the only one who could get him to settle down and stop being a clown.
Charlie ended up calling it off with Brielle after a run in with her dad, he threatened him one night because he thought Charlie would ruin her life and grow up to be nothing, he thought his daughter deserved better. He called it off, lied and said he had been seeing other people behind her back so that it hurt her and she would move on and fully forget about him. He was heart broken but knew it was probably for the best and never told her why he did what he did.
His love was always in football, that’s where he excelled the most in school. He got himself a full ride scholarship to Vaderbilt and was eventually drafted in the NFL.
Brielle: wow welcome to the way I've felt for years
Brielle: this literally has nothing to do with whatever has happened with us
Brielle: fuck me for being concerned, right?
Brielle: won't make the mistake again
Charlie: I didn't fuck with your head, I lied because of YOUR dad. I was a fucking kid.
Charlie: You're right it's not about us and we're not friends so you don't need to be concerned.
Charlie: Did you even like Carmen?
Cam honestly hasn't known what to do with himself since the news of Carmen's passing. Every morning he woke up feeling sicker than the last, and that was if he even managed to get some sleep. He'd stay up all night, staring at the ceiling, watching his last interaction with a woman he loved, and beating himself up over how much of a fucking dickhead he had always been to her. She was right when she said he didn't deserve her. Now, he'd never have a chance to make things right. She was dead. She was gone. And there was only one other person in town that he felt comfortable showing the pain that caused to. They'd had a run of it lately, sure, but Charlie was still his best friend. "I just-- man, I just wanna have one more conversation with her, you know? Say I'm sorry, tell her I--" I love her. "I just miss her, man... Knowing she's not gonna bust my door down and come throwin' hands in my face ever again..." He shook his head. "I'm so sick of all of this. I just want it to be over, man."
Charlie wasn't dealing with the loss of Carmen easy. The two of them were a whirlwind together, a whole mess, everybody who knew them knew they would never work but somehow they came back together again like a magnet attracted them. It seemed as though they were both finally in a good place even if that good place was not together. They were finally at a mutual understanding. Now that had all been taken away from him in the blink of an eye and he didn't now how to deal with that. He listened to Cam talk, he wasn't sure what to tell him because he couldn't even convince himself of anything right now. "It's hard" he spoke quietly followed by a swallow, a lump in his throat forming quickly, "I don't know how much more I can handle. I can't keep losing people like this."
Danny: yeah. Right after my sibling was brutally murdered I thought hold up lemme take this watch
Danny: obviously fucking not
Charlie: I knew it
Charlie: I fucking knew it
Charlie: You stole my watch
Brielle: it's not pity
Brielle: i'm just sorry about carmen
Brielle: i know how close you two were
Brielle: accept it or not, whatever
Charlie: You just fuck with my head
Charlie: I can't deal with you right now
Charlie: You want space and then you don't?
"Are you gonna do one of your little true crime things about us all?" Charlie asked with a raised brow as he sat back. Charlie had gotten closer to Jennie than he'd expected, her being his best friends sister was once thing but the two of them also had the pleasure of working for the titan's too. "Can you at least film some clips of me while I'm alive? I don't want all my clips being slow motion game play of me running on the field in black and white or you slowed down clips of me dancing to your voice saying 'he lit up every room that he walked into' you know?"
Charlie was feeling all over the place. Since Carmen's passing he hadn't left the house much, locked himself away with his own thoughts, finding himself in the same disruptive process from when he lost Kenna. Only this time he didn't have Carmen around to show up and try to talk him around, reminding him of the massive blowup the two had and the things he had said to her which he didn't mean. It was this that caused him to hop in his car without really knowing where he was driving and before he knew it he was pulling up at Dakota's place and knocking at the door, heart racing in his chest as he tried his best to calm himself down.
Dakota: And yet I still do.
Dakota: Do you want to just go and get drunk or something?
Dakota: I'm sick of thinking.
Charlie: Dakota getting drunk is the last thing we should be doing
Charlie: They're out there
Charlie: If we get drunk and they hurt you too then idk what I will do
Charlie: I'd blame myself
Charlie: I can't defend me or you if I'm drunk
Dakota: I'm sorry about Carmen.
Dakota: I know she was important to you.
Charlie: Dakota you do not need to feel bad for me
Charlie: Especially when you lost Remy too
Charlie: If you need me I'm here
Cam knew that the conversation needed to be had, but even now he didn't really want to have it. But he didn't want things to be weird with Charlie even more so he'd push through the awkwardness and dickhead feelings and square this shit away. "I get it, man," he sighed, hanging his head a little bit. Though, he couldn't help the chuckle that came out when Charlie said he didn't give a fuck. "I know, I was a fuckin' dick. I shouldn't have hidden shit from you man, I'm sorry," he apologized, as much as it killed him inside and as much as he didn't really mean it. He'd probably go about it in the same way if he could go back in time. His head tilted back up, eyes going to the two women. "... Kinda hot though, right?"
"This is gross I don't want this conversation anymore" he shuddered at the two of them having this weird feelings conversation. He hated these, he was never a serious guy but when it came to Carmen and Cambriel something didn't sit right with him. It all felt weird to him. His eyes turning to face the two girls stood together for a moment, "what's kinda hot?" He asked, "I mean I've been trying to fuck Dallas for the longest time but it's not gone anywhere. Carmen I already fucked, dated, the whole nine yards and I'd definitely fuck again so."
Carmen stood there feeling a little bit stunned by the answer she was given from him. "Charlie Abbott." The smile slowly growing on her face as she looked him up and down. "Is this growth I'm seeing here?" She couldn't help herself but to poke a little fun at the way he seemed to be handling himself lately. It both shocked her and made her feel a bit proud. Her eyes falling away from him to land on the blonde who was stood not too far away from him. "I don't know if I should really update you on that." She laughed lightly, "Things have really... taken a turn with me and her."
"I mean I'm pushing thirty now, Car. I can't be out breaking my hip with multiple people you know? I have to settle at some point right? And if you're not gonna entertain my bullshit anymore then I think that's a sign. I mean, you're a pain in the ass, you were a pain in my ass the whole time we were together but you helped me grow." He teased, a smile on his face as he kept his gaze on her as he spoke. "You're my pain in the ass." He laughed, It was his talk with Mckenna that really started this change in him, a talk that just seemed like nothing at the time until she was suddenly gone. Others may not have noticed it but he was changing, it was slow progress but he felt it within himself as days went on. "Well I won't push you, it's just nice to see you guys getting along for once. You guys were so close at one point so it's just nice to see you two again you know?"
With things feeling so light and actually normal between her and Charlie, Carmen wanted to keep that going for as long as it could possibly last. So, when she spotted him across the room at the ball, she headed straight towards him with her drink in hand. Grabbing a second off the tray as a staff member walked by. "Look at you, standing here all on your own." She offered the drink out to him with a smile on her lips. "You didn't have anyone you wanted to bring with you tonight?"
Charlie couldn't help but smile as he accepted the drink from Carmen. "I didn't" she admitted, "I'm trying to focus more on me and how I can be better, I have a bad history of being selfish and not thinking about others but you already know that." He was happy with the place that the two of them were at currently, less fighting is what he liked and it seems they just worked better as friends. "Am I seeing things or are you here with Dallas?" He raised an eyebrow before taking a sip from the drink she had handed to him.
"Listen, man," Cam sighed heavily. He had hated that he had kept shit from Charlie before, and ever since everything had come out a couple of days ago he had just felt awkward about it all. "I'm sorry about everythin' with Car, about like not telling you and shit... Can we just like forget about it and move on?" He asked, apologizing again, though this time his tone had a lot more sincerity than it did at the bar. Cam's eyes moved from Charlie out to the crowd, landing on Carmen and Dallas causing him to take a long breath and shake his head. "I swear those two used to hate each other..."
Charlie had spotted Cam and hoped he would turn the other way but it looked as though his friend was wanting a chat. After not being able to finish their talk not too long ago because of Cam making a swift exit he was feeling a little frustrated with the man. "Look Cam.." he huffed, a small roll of his eyes as she turned to face his friend, "I'm not even bothered that you fucked my ex, it's the way you hid it from me.. that hurt bro.." he shook his head, "we could have exchanged notes and stories or something, you know me you know I don't give a fuck, I care about how my friends are acting though." His eyes darting over in the direction of Carmen and Dallas for a moment. "I'm pretty sure they were at each others throats so I have no idea what is going on there."
