These Kind Of Imagines And Fics Are So Sad That I Get Physically Sick - Tumblr Posts
i love the idea that charlie knew that something was going on between neil and todd, but hear me out, what if he didn't knew in the moment? what if he knew that there was something different between them, that they had a special friendship, but didn't exactly knew what made it special.
until 10 years later, while he's living in new york, something happens in a bar called stonewall, at the end of june. and suddenly the streets are filled with all the colors of the rainbow, and queer people demanding for the right to love and live. charlie walks down the street to his everyday job when he stumbles across one of those parades. at the start he pays no attention, until two young boys, no more than 18 years old each, catch their eye. they are holding hands and a rainbow flag covers their shoulders, but their eyes are what makes him freeze. they are filled with something... something that he hasn't seen in almost 10 years, that he last saw between an anxious poet and a now dead actor.
and then, in the middle of a crowded manhattan street, he realizes what made their "friendship" special. because in those two teenagers, in their eyes full of what he now knows it's love, he sees todd and neil again.
