Annora laughed noisily and looked at Charlie and blowed a kiss at him. “You know I was joking, you’re the best feminist I know.” She blushed at how cute her friend was and smiled at the grown. “That’s amazing. Everyone deserves to be happy.”

Charlie blushed deeply, genuinely disturbed by the idea that she thought he had anything but respect. He shook his head softly, “there’s so much I still need to learn. There’s so much I still need to lean. So much internal prejudice I haven’t even realized yet. But I’m trying to listen. I’m trying...”

“I didn’t hear anything, I smelt it,” he smiled a little. “You smell of her perfume. And you’ve got a glow like you just had sex. Have you? Who is she?”

He laughed. “Do I really? I haven’t noticed.” He grinned. “I have. Lots of sex. It’s the intern at the reserve. Her name is Ellie.”

Charlie smiled a little at first, finding this very bittersweet until Keith told him that it was Ellie he'd been seeing. "You do. Unless you've just started wearing women's perfume, and I support you if that's your decision. I know Ellie. I like her a lot. Just be careful that the old bitch that has my job doesn't catch you, yeah?" He leaned in and gave him a soft kiss on his lips. "Does she make you happy?"

She smiled and leaned into his body slightly; careful not to do too much because of his leg. “Charlie, I would’ve said yes our fourth year of school.” She looked at him as best as she could and her heart just swelled a thousand times. “You can. And I already love you for the rest of my life. Of course I’ll be your wife.”

“I want to be your husband,” he said quietly. He fumbled around due to his nerves, but took the ring out of the box. He slipped it onto her finger, then looked at it for a moment. He loosened his grip, allowing her to turn. He then leaned in and gave her a passionate kiss, holding her hips softly.

She couldn’t resist but be playful with Charlie. Jokingly, she pressed her hand against her chest dramatically. “It offends me how little strength you think I have in this tiny, so feminine arms.” But soon she letted a big smile show on her face and she laughed picking the buckets up. “I’ll take this first and then come back for the apples if that’s okay with you.” Annora couldn’t hide how intersected she was in every word that came out of her friend’s mouth and a smile appeared on her face as soon as she heard the words ‘Thestrals and Unicors’, since those two were in her top ten of favorite creatures. “Yeah I’ve met him a few times, he’s quite cool.”

“I didn’t say anything about feminine arms! I know lots of girls who could beat me up. But it’s also awkward to carry and just generally heavy. I’m a feminist! I believe that women can do it, it’s just...” he blushed a lot. He knew he was getting more awkward by the moment, but he couldn’t think of how to make this any better. “He’s the coolest. He’s actually married to one of my really good friends. They’re very sweet. I hope that they’re happy.

Weasley Christmas

selena-jade-chang:

Selena was loving that they were spending Christmas together at his family’s. Well, she loved spending time with the Weasleys anyways even if it was slightly crazy. But she was happy, and she could tell Charlie was for the most part as well which meant more to her than anything else. As long as he was happy, so was she. 

After dinner was over and Charlie led her outside, she was curious as to what was gong on. She heard someone follow and turned around to look, only to look back as Charlie held her close. Her eyes widened as she saw the ringbox and looked into his eyes. “Charlie, is this what I think it is?”

He nodded slightly. “I think so, yes.” He gave her a little smile. “I'd very much like to marry you, if you’d do me the honour,” he continued quietly, gently nuzzling her hair. He was too shy to properly look at her. His heart was racing though, and that could be felt against her back. “I love you. I love you so much. I want to love you for the rest of my life.”

“Well, I may hit you if you don’t hug me, but yes you can hold and hug Maia.” She smiled at him. “I can’t come visit you without something being wrong?”

“You can, but you don’t,” he replied simply, leaning over to hug her snugly. “And I’m sure there’s something now? What’s up? Is Dean okay?” He offered his arms to take Maia with a small smile.

Keith kissed him back before rolling his eyes. “I was about to. The fact you heard before I got here isn’t my fault.”

“I didn’t hear anything, I smelt it,” he smiled a little. “You smell of her perfume. And you’ve got a glow like you just had sex. Have you? Who is she?”

Aria noticed he jumped and sighed. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to startle you.” She apologized. “I hear that. I’m fine. I just came to… well, surprise you.” She held Maia closer as the girl whimpered a tiny bit. She noticed the creature in his pocket and smiled before looking back at the man who still felt like family to her. “I’m fine, Charlie. You’re busy. We can go. I didn’t mean to bother you.”

“It’s okay! It’s alright, I was just deep in thought. Can I give you a hug? Or... Maia? Can I hug her? I mean hold her. But I could hug her too, I guess.” He stumbled over his words. “Sorry. I don’t know why I’m so nervous. You’re giving me the same look you would when you were a kid. When you’d either hit me or cry and I don’t really want to be on the receiving end of either. Are you alright?”

Keith smiled as he walked up on Charlie talking to his animals. He loved watching him like this, but after a moment, decided to stop it. “Cheating on me with creatures now? I am shocked! And hurt!” He said dramatically. “How dare you?” He added before laughing.

Charlie jumped, but then smiled at Keith. He leaned over and gave him a gentle kiss, then paused, pulling back to give him a look. “It seems like you’re the one that’s been cheating, Mr. Fitzgerald. Have a girl you haven’t told me about?”

Weasley Christmas

Charlie had forgotten how loud and insufferable his family was. Though some insensitive and unsettling comments were thrown around, it was such a loving environment that Charlie couldn’t help feeling uplifted. With so many people in the Burrow, it was hard to get a word in, let alone a moment to himself. It was almost comical - Bill and Charlie shared their old room, with Fleur, Selena, and Keith all snuggled up in the mix. Though Keith was trying to get Charlie and Selena a moment alone, that was easier said than done. 

After Christmas dinner, Charlie took Selena outside, hoping for just a moment. What he didn’t know was that someone had followed them out and they were being watched. He stood on the patio with her to overlook the land, but moved quickly, knowing he had very limited time to do this. He wrapped his arms around her and gently nuzzled his hair before producing a small ringbox and opening it to her. “I’m sorry it’s not much. You deserve so much more...” he whispered quietly in her ear.

Charlie knew he had walked right into that question. “I’m just feeling old,” he replied simply. Knowing that Selena was never one to give up that easily, he continued after half a moment. “I miss the reserve. I love it here, but it’s… It’s not my calling, you know? It’s kind of hard to see the kids with all their dreams and potential, knowing that I let mine slip away.” He ripped open a bag of grubs and dumped them into one of the enclosures. “Is that entirely selfish of me? I don’t show it to them, anyway.”

Selena held Pickett in her hand as Charlie talked. She new Charlie had missed the reserve and she felt horrible about it. She had been talking to a couple of the heads there to try to see if there was a way Charlie could come back, but before they could all think about it, they needed to know if it was serious on   Charlie’s end. She wasn’t sure how to discuss it with him, but she really wanted to. “It hasn’t slipped away, Charlie. And you’re not being selfish. You could never be selfish.” She assured him. “I could help you try to get back to work there. So can Keith. You know we’d help you. Many of the others would too. We all miss you terribly.”

[charmander-weasley-blog]

"I know," he replied quietly, with a small smile. "I know. I really want to, but it would be too dangerous with my leg the way it is. I'm not strong enough and I would be be able to move fast enough. It's just my life now. I did it to myself, and now I have to get used to it." While he talked, Pickett peeped for attention. Charlie prepared the meat for the carnivores and grunted when he lifted the bucket. "I have my family and that's all that really matters in the end. I just feel like I don't really have any purpose right now. But I know that I have you and I have Keith. I love you. Everything will turn out, I'm sure."

Selena watched him and smiled as he treated the bowtruckle so kind. It was classic Charlie, and she loved him more for this. She grinned at the tiny creature and gave it a small wave. “Hello, Pickett.” She looked at Charlie before holding out her hand to take the creature before leaning into Charlie’s kiss. “Was something wrong?” She asked him. “You never have to thank me. I enjoy visiting you.” 

Charlie knew he had walked right into that question. “I’m just feeling old,” he replied simply. Knowing that Selena was never one to give up that easily, he continued after half a moment. “I miss the reserve. I love it here, but it’s... It’s not my calling, you know?

Annora smiled and laughed at how adorably beautiful the bowtruckle was and how much Charlie cared for him. “Not really, I was just taking a walk around the castle and couldn’t resist to come talk to you.” She gave him half a smile. “That sound perfect, I would love to.” She said trying to hide how excited she was about helping him. Apart from the fact she loved almost all kind of animals, what she truly needed at the moment was to spend some time with someone like Charlie. But on the inside, she couldn’t shake the feeling that maybe he just wanted to be alone and she was too sticky, even though she really hoped that was just all in her head.

“Well come along then,” Charlie told her, tucking the bowtruckle in his pocket. He tossed a bag of grain over his shoulder, then grabbed a bucket of meat, but his leg buckled in reaction. Once he steadied himself, he smiled at her. He knew better than to make a passive comment about her gender, so he just smiled at her. “If you think you can grab one, please, by all means. It’s a bit heavy and hard to stomach, so I don’t blame you if you can’t. If not, can you grab one of the bags of apples? We’ll go see the Thestrals and unicorns first, if that’s alright with you? Seth’s got the little buggers trained to expect food when I’m feeding the Thestrals now. Quite annoying, actually. Have to talk to Katie about that one when I next see her. Get him to pay for the food. Do you know Seth? Met him? Probably Mr. Stephenson to you, I suppose.”

Selena was worried about Charlie. Despite him being seemingly happy about his new job, she felt like something was going on. Having the day off, she decided to go visit him and found him talking to the animals . “Hey.” She said softly in hopes not to startle him. “Having fun?”

Unlike with most people, Charlie didn’t jump when Selena snuck up on him. She already knew how much he talked to his animals, so it wasn’t really any surprise when she heard him. He smiled a little at her and again tried to encourage the bowtruckle into the tree. “Oh, you know,” he replied quietly. When he wouldn’t budge. Charlie brought him over and offered him to Selena. “Pickett, this is my Selena. The one I talk about. You have to be nice to her, okay?” He put his hand out flat, offering him a better view of Selena. After a moment, he reached his spindly little arms up to her and Charlie smiled. “He’s quite shy,” he said again, offering Pickett to her before leaning in and giving her cheek a soft kiss. “Thank you for visiting me, I feel better already.”

Today was one of those days when Annora couldn’t get herself to do anything productive without getting lost in her thoughts. This would happen to her very often lately, but she could never figure out the reason for this. There were many possible factors, but at the time of the event the young girl could never figure the exact one bothering her. When this happened, she would just walk around the Hogwarts grounds to try and get her mind off of things. And as she did so, she crossed paths with her favorite red head. Annora noticed Charlie himself was a little too deep into his own thoughts as he wandered around with one of his little creatures. Unconsciously, a smile appeared on her face and a feeling of happiness filled her chest. She approached him carefully as not to scare him or the the animal away. “That’s one beautiful creature you’ve got there.” Annora said as she walked slowly towards him with a soft smile on her face. Having Charlie around made her feel ten times better than ever, but talking to him as a teacher would never be the same as talking to him as a friend, so she would take any opportunity she got to talk to him outside of the school schedule and for sure that was time well spent.

Charlie jumped when Annora spoke to him, but he smiled anyway, knowing this was a stressful time for her. “He’s a bowtruckle. I’d let you hold him, but...” he laughed a little, trying to put him back on the tree. “He has some attachment issues...” He smiled over at her. “Did you come by for any specific reason?” he asked, bringing the animal closer to his chest so he wouldn’t get cold. “I’m just doing the rounds, putting everyone to bed, would you like to join me?”

When Aria had heard that Charlie had a new job, she had to see him. Well, she always felt like she had to see him but now she felt like was the perfect time. So, her and Maia bundled up and went off to Hogwarts to visit. It took a bit to find hi, but she finally did and smiled as she watched him. “Hey, Charlie. I’m not interrupting, am I?”

Charlie jumped when Aria talked to him, despite her care not to sneak up on him. He was just so involved with his other conversation that it felt like he was caught in the act. “No, no!” He replied quietly, tucking the Bowtruckle in his breast pocket. “Just having... A bit of a conversation. How are you feeling? Why are you here? Not that I don’t want to see you here, I love seeing you, it’s just a bit of a surprise!” he replied, stumbling quickly over his words, nervously. The animal, knowing Charlie’s nervous voice, peeked his head out to observe Aria, who didn’t seem like a threat, then looked up at Charlie, trying to comfort him. “I’m sorry, how are you here - I mean, how are you, now in this moment?”
