Charlotte's father hadn't been able to hide his glee when Charlotte and Jaden had broken up before she'd returned to France for her final year of schooling. He didn't think Jaden was an appropriate choice for her. Charlotte spent a lot of time around Jaden when he didn't have his shirt on, so she disagreed. The only thing she didn't like about it was that tension between Jaden and Bruno was always heightened because Bruno had decided he was her big brother or something stupid.

When she'd gotten back from France, she and Jaden had flirted a bit again, but Charlotte wasn't going to date anybody until she was sure she was sticking around. And now she was. She was starting at King's College, London, at the end of the week, after spending what felt like forever on the waitlist, thinking she might end up in Edinburgh. Charlotte texted Bruno to meet her over something urgent and sat in a coffee shop with a drink ordered for the both of them, waiting to tell him the good news.

"I had a pretty good idea that you'd stay even if I hadn't invited you." Bruno pointed out with a laugh, then kissed her forehead.

He hugged her back when she hugged him and snorted. "Don't be so quick to get into my room or I'll get the wrong impression." He told her, then led her to the kitchen. "I know how to cook now. So this is good." He pointed down the hallway. "Down there."

Charlotte loved every inch of the little house so far. The kitchen was perfect. "I like this place a lot," she told him. "It's so nice. Maybe Cepheus should be a real estate agent."

She pulled away from him, walking down the hall and opening the doors there. She smiled, looking around the bigger bedroom. "I'm definitely going to camp out with you in here. It's gorgeous, Bruno."

	Bruno laughed and nodded. "I thought you'd like the bedroom, but I wasn't sure. Watch this. This is Cepheus's present for me. Belated birthday present, he said." He grabbed a remote on the bed and clicked it. A television appeared at the end of the bed and started playing Cinderella. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Charlotte stared at the television for a moment, then laughed and crawled onto the bed. "Cepheus is the best," she said, grinning at the screen. She looked at Bruno, patting the spot on the bed beside her. "Come here. We can watch some of our movie."

She leaned back against the pillows, surveying the room again. "I really like it here," Charlotte said. "We're going to be really happy, aren't we?"

	"As long as I can make you really happy. Yeah." Bruno nodded as he pulled her close to his chest. He kissed her forehead and then pulled the blankets up over the both of them. "You can stay here tonight if you want." Bruno told her quietly. "I have my group at seven, but I can bring home dinner." (Reply to this)(Parent)
