How could she expect him to form words when her mouth was so close? Charlie felt as if his mind had started to burst into tiny explosions, and whether or not it actually was occurring or the fireworks in the literal sky were starting to go off, he could not tell. He just nodded, unable to answer her question because he bent at the knees, gravitating towards her to seal their distance with a kiss. Charlie wrapped himself around her small frame and pulled Penny as close to him as possible, the ache he'd been carrying around in his chest finally bursting. It was like he'd been walking around, alone and confused for the past three months and now he knew exactly what he'd been searching for.
Merlin---he never wanted to leave this balcony. Charlie knew that this fairy tale of a moment wouldn't and couldn't last forever, but he had no desire to go back to the real world and deal with the mistakes they've both made, he didn't want to try to repair things with her family, he just---he wanted Penelope and the idea that they could be happy together to last him through the night.
"Real, real," he managed to say when he broke away for quick, split seconds. Please let it be real, he needed this happiness more than he'd realized.
