I spent the next morning researching OCD. I want to understand Charlie better, be able to help him if I can. I learnt that there are many different forms, I'm not really sure which he has, but I do know he likes routine.
He told me that he likes things done a certain way, and I'm quickly learning how this materialises at work. I've watched him methodically organising the fridge in the mornings, and I've watched how he does things behind the bar.
I also learnt about compulsions, and I've noticed that sometimes when Charlie is stressed he squeezes his arm. I don't know if he does it to cause himself pain, but from what I've read all I can really do is try to help ease his stress when he does this.
I have rugby practice today, if I don't start getting ready now I'm going to be late. I close my laptop, climb out of bed and go for a shower. I think about Charlie, I'm always thinking about Charlie. Especially after last night, the things he was saying to me in the car, the way he was kissing all over my face and neck.
I had two wanks last night thinking about it, if he does want to come over tonight, maybe we can we find a way to be intimate that won't push too far out of my comfort zone. We don't have to jump straight in to actual sex, there's loads of things we can do.
Once I'm out the shower, I start getting dressed and my phone buzzes. I glance at it, a wide smile spreading across my face when I see it's a text from Charlie.
Charlie
On my break now, I miss you 😘I stare at the message for a couple of seconds, beaming. Not only has Charlie finally opened up, and we both admitted we like each other, but I don't feel worried about being too much myself. He saw me last night, and he messaged to say he misses me.
Nick
I miss you too 😘 I'm just getting ready for rugby practice xxCharlie
Oooh 😏 xxI exhale a laugh, I was right to assume he likes the whole rugby thing. I decide to take a photo in my mirror and send it to him, he's only ever seen me in my work clothes. I'm a little nervous for his reaction, I hope he still fancies me when I'm just dressed in a t-shirt and shorts.
Charlie
Oh shit! 😳🥵 xxOkay, that's a good reaction. The slight anxiety I was feeling eases, I now want to flirt and tease him a bit while he's at work.
Nick
I thought you might appreciate that 😏😂 xxCharlie
This isn't fair, god I wish I wasn't at work 😩 xxNick
No more sneaking off into the staff toilets 😜 xxCharlie
Oh my god 🫣😂 you're never going to let me live that down are you?! 😂😂 xxNick
I still can't believe you did that 😏😂 xxCharlie
I was desperate 😩 you looked so fucking hot that night, I couldn't cope 😂 xxI did notice Charlie was acting a bit weird that night, knowing now that it was because he wanted me so bad that he had to into the staff toilets and relieve himself is making me unbearably horny.
He also looked really hot that night, and now I can actually tell him that.
Nick
God so did you... I felt my dick twitch every time I looked at you 😂 xx
