Charlotte usually went wherever Elodie did. Her cousin was older than her, and spent a lot of time at their house, so it made sense. Plus, Elodie was older and even if she liked weird things and was a bit violent, Charlotte still liked her. She was cool. Today, she was over at Xavier's house playing with her stuffed unicorn while Elodie and Xavier played with their dolls.

Charlotte glanced at the other boy in the room, who she'd met a couple times but was too shy to talk to, and watched him chew on his sheep for a bit before she crawled over to him. "Hi," she said, sitting next to him. "I have a unicorn."

"If we get to take the pictures home, I will show you." Bruno promised her and then shrugged. "Why aren't you wearing your name tag now? What if you get lost? I don't want to have to look for you."

Cepheus nodded. "I know Blaise." He told him with a grin. "I've seen him come over when my Mer-Dad has a poker night. Sometimes they let me stay up and watch them play. It's my favourite."

Albus glanced at Scorpius's lunch, then shrugged. "That's okay. I don't like that kind of stuff. I like gummies and stuff."

"It's not for me. It's for my desk," Charlotte told Bruno, laughing. "You won't ever have to look for me. I'm not going to get lost. I'm going to be right beside you." She gave his hand a reassuring squeeze. "We're going to be together for a long time."

Jude nodded, smiling at Cepheus. "They play poker at our house too sometimes," he told the other boy. "Dad lets me stay up with them for a bit and have snacks. You could come over with your dad one time, maybe. Your brother could come too, if he wants."

"Mum and Martin don't let us have many sweets," Scorpius told Albus. "We get chocolate sometimes, but not gummies or anything. Oh, but Mum really likes cheesecake and then grandmum always have cakes and things when we have tea with her." Scorpius ate some more of his vegetables. "We're supposed to eat boring things."

Bruno was laying on his stomach in Charlotte's room while he was being babysat. He could hear her parents arguing over the kitchen, something about not eating enough, but he was drowning it out. His mother and Rider were always fighting about things.

He coloured the bear in the book with a pink crayon, then pulled Persephone a bit closer to his chest. "Do you like your new friends more than you like me?"

Charlotte looked up from the horse in her colouring book which she was slowly turning into a unicorn and shook her head. She was used to the sounds of her parents arguing too. They did it a lot. "Course not," she said. "You're my best friend. You and Elodie, but she's my cousin so it doesn't really count."

She frowned to herself for a moment as it occurred to her that Bruno might be asking for other reasons. "Do you like your new friends more than you like me? I know they're boys."

"No." How could she even ask him that? He shook his head and ran a hand through his hair. "I don't know why you'd think that. You're the only friend I've ever had other than Xavier. And Jaden is kind of stupid. Jude is self-centered."

He shrugged. "And Albus just listens to music all day. They're not you." He sighed. "And Xavier has been grumpy since he and Caspar lost touch."

	Charlotte smiled at Bruno. He was the best. "Good," she said. "I don't want you to ever like someone more than you like me. We're going to be friends forever. You and me and Persephone and Crystal Diamond." She leaned over and kissed his cheek. "We're never going to lose touch, I promise." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Bruno looked at himself in the mirror and sighed. He wasn't huge like his father and sometimes Rider picked on him about it. But, he was only twelve. He didn't have to be huge. Right? He was tall enough. And he'd get muscles eventually.

He sighed and stepped out of the bathroom, walking down the hall to his room. He stopped when he found Charlotte in there. "I thought you were going home. I didn't know you were in here or I'd have put on a shirt."

Charlotte looked up at Bruno and laughed. "I don't care if you don't have a shirt on," she told him. "We've been friends since we were three. I can handle it."

She crossed her legs under herself and played with the ends of her hair. "I thought I was going to go home too, but I'm pretty sure my parents are fighting again. I called home and I heard Mum yelling in French in the background. I thought I might just... stay here for a little longer. What were you doing?"

Reaching up, Bruno mussed his wet hair and shrugged. "I just got out of the shower. And I was going to watch something on my laptop before I go to sleep." He admitted, falling onto his bed behind her, laying on his side.

Bruno pulled her down beside him and dropped a soft kiss to the back of her head. "You can stay." He told her, then reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone, texting his mother that Charlotte was staying. "What do you want to watch, Princess?"

Charlotte smiled at Bruno, shuffling a bit closer to him. "Good, because I texted Daddy and told him I was staying over already. I don't care how long it take him to check his phone. I'm tired of getting caught in the middle of all their fights."

She shifted do she was lying on her back beside him, looking up at him. "Can we watch Cinderella again? Or we can watch something you like more if you want to."

Bruno loved Cinderella, but he thought they were getting a bit too old to keep watching Disney movies about princesses. Also, he was becoming a man. He was already having to shave. But, he would watch it with her. Because it made her happy.

He grabbed the remote to his television and turned it on, along with the movie that was already in the player. "Of course. Anything you wish." He told her with a grin and settled in beside her, resting a hand on her hip. "You can stay here whenever you want. My mum won't complain. I think my father is weird about it, but Walden is weird about everything."

Charlotte laughed, setting in with her eyes on the television. Cinderella was the perfect comfort movie and she didn't care if they were getting old for it. It was theirs. Along with unicorns and lambs.

"My parents sometimes say we're getting too old to have sleepovers, but I think they're stupid. We're best friends. We're always going to have sleepovers. Even when we're thirty." She glanced at Bruno. "You don't get too old for friendship."

	"I don't think we're that old. We're only twelve." Bruno pointed out. Her shampoo smelled good. He put his face in her hair a little bit more as the movie started, his eyes closing. Sometimes laying with her was the only thing that calmed him down. He ran a hand down her side and rested it on her hip. "We can have sleepovers until you find your prince."

Charlotte laughed a little, glancing back at Bruno. "Scorpius and Cepheus are kind of like princes," she said. "I think their flat is comparable to a castle. I don't think I'd want to marry either of them, though. Cepheus is too messy and Scorpius is too fussy."

She curled up on the bed, humming along with the opening of the movie. "It's be much more romantic to get swept off my feet by a prince when I'm older anyway."

Bruno wrinkled his nose at that. "You wouldn't want to marry either of them. I'm fairly certain that they're both huge homos." He informed her with a grumble. He couldn't help that he suddenly felt very grumpy.

"Yeah." He agreed. No one was allowed to take her away from him. Even if he wasn't interested in being her prince, she was still all he had. "Much older. Like when you're fifty."

	"You're probably right," she said. "About Scorpius and Cepheus. They're both so pretty. And rich. It's too bad. It's a loss for girls everywhere." Charlotte sighed. "Fifty?" Charlotte laughed at that. "I wouldn't be able to have babies if I got married when I was fifty. I think... maybe when I'm eighteen would be okay. Or sixteen." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	bru 2012-11-30 08:09 am UTC (link)
	"No. That's too young." Bruno informed her with a frown. "The only people who get married when they're sixteen are whores who get pregnant. And you are not a whore. So you're not allowed to get married." Ever. He shook his head. "How about... forty. You could still have a kid when you're forty." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	charlott 2012-11-30 08:14 am UTC (link)
	"Forty is still too old," Charlotte insisted. "I'll get married when I fall in love. And I'm not going to get pregnant until after I'm married for sure." She smiled at Bruno. "It's nice that you're worried about me. You're a good best friend. Maybe I'll wait until I'm twenty-five. I have to do university and everything too, so that would make sense."

***

Bruno waited until he knew everyone was out of the house. He double checked twice and then walked into his room and stripped off his clothes. As a fifteen year old boy, it was only natural that he watched porn. Every waking moment. And that he was constantly thinking about it.

But, now he had the house to himself and he was going to take advantage of it. He sat back on his bed and squirted some lotion into his hand, then turned on the film he'd found on the internet, stroking himself.
