The night she comes back from her best friend's apartment after finding out her boyfriend is married, she meets a huge man sleeping on the snow in her backyard. 23-year old Charlie Jordan doesn't know what to do. After so many calls and studying, she finds out the man—Blurin Jameson— is an ex-militant whose address got mixed up on deployment day. It takes Charlie 419 Days to realize how her heart beats faster when ever they're near or when his eyes lights up... Or how she completes his amount of ribs.

Coming Back Home Chapter 21: Likes and Death
LIKE AND DEATHCharlie cancelled Thanksgiving at her house; Theresa understood, Deedah shrugged and Mama Freya threw her medication bottle at her. The only person's reaction she didn't get was Blurin's. The mountain of a man made sure to avoid her through and through.There are a lot of things to recover from; Tristan, Mario and his stupid hot-soon-to-be heroic wife, and Blurin. The man no longer came downstairs to watch her cook or clean. It made Charlie sad. Very sad.It's been two weeks after Tristan's rejection and he has finally moved out of Charlie's apartment. It was enough to trigger her tear duct but she didn't cry. She couldn't. It was going to paint her as miserable and desperate as if she wasn't all those. Her best friend is spending Christmas with Zeus at his father's house and she's all alone for Christmas except Blurin who avoids her entirely.Charlie decides that toda

A BAD DAY... WEEKCharlie isn't sure she has anything to be grateful for.These past few months have been a rollercoaster that has managed to overwhelm Charlie gravely.The gingerhead has always looked forward to any Thanksgiving, especially with Deedah and Mama Freya present in the same room. Those two are like oil and water. Last year, Mama Freya kept dropping inappropriate jokes about Zeus's ass and Deedah almost punched her jaw.Charlie could swear she almost had a heart attack that day.Most times, Deedah even brings her cat, Sambi, for the *awe's* and the *coos*. But Charlie isn't sure she has it in her for Thanksgiving this year. Her friends and acquaintances can be a handful, most times, and she isn't ready for that—especially with the situation on ground.Her humiliating rejection. Her ex-boyfriend's stupid speech to his wife and keeping her feelings organized. Not to

**COMFORT**It hit her the next morning.Tristan doesn't like her that way. The same way Mario didn't like her which caused him to play her like hockey.It is around 2 am that Charlie wakes up from her sleepless night. A truckload of sadness washes over her as she replays last night's conversation.'...I don't like you in that way. I just want us to be friends...'The first dam breaks few minutes after brooding. She doesn't even try to stop it or tune it down, no. The sobs pour violently as she clutches her pillow tightly.She is so deep in her weeping that she doesn't register her door open, or how the end of her bed sinks slowly.When she starts hearing soft humming, she raises her head from her pillow.Bulky is sitting at the end of her bed, his fingers on his lap and his hair falling against his face.She waits for him to talk,

NOT TRISTAN'S TYPEIt's been roughly two months since she shut the door on her relationship. Two months since she rescued Blurin from dying of hypothermia. A month away from Christmas.The snow fell at a more heavy pace. Townswomen and children has started putting up decorations and adding the celebratory 'Seasons Greeting!' to their salutations.Steinfield is always lively this time of year. The airplane crash? Shutting down of the airport? The town's people have a lot to be grateful for. Charlie Jordan, especially.It's been two months since Blurin became her housemate and she still hasn't heard him utter a full sentence. In his case, actions speak louder than words. Charlie has to be lying if she says she doesn't wish to have a friendly interaction with Bulky.In fact, the only interaction they both have is about food—whenever he isn't busy, Blurin helps with making meals in the house. With

POUTING IN A PIZZA PLACECharlie has been busying herself with trimming her vegetable beds since midmorning.The sun was barely up when she wore her rubber gloves and picked up her tools from the side of the house. Nora's apartment has its light on and Charlie could see indistinct movement here and there.She cut the weeds rather viciously. The loud giggles and boisterous laugh still lingers in her mind and that is what fueled her to snap the necks of a few stems.Charlie avoided Tristan the whole of yesterday till the present morning. He'd left a few minutes after Blurin had come down for breakfast. Ha, Breakfast. It was an awkward affair. For the first time—since living with Charlie—Tristan was on his phone on the dining table chuckling softly then coughing afterward.'He's probably sharing dog memes with Theresa,' Charlie couldn't keep the saltiness off her thoughts.Sighing loud

A TRIVIAL COMPETITION"Mama, I'm fine! I wanna go in now, pleaseeee!" The 5-year old whines loudly. He keeps prying his mother's fingers from his hair as he huffs."Okay. Okay," His mother chuckles softly, "Did you pack your monster trucks, my handsome?"Charles pouts, his knees bouncing impatiently, "Yes Mama! Russ and his family is in my bag pack, can I go in now?"Mrs. Pulgo smiles softly, a proud flower blooming in her chest as her son kept glancing at his babysitter's house with his knees bobbing eagerly."Okay, let's go."They walk hand-in-hand till they get to Charlie's doorstep. Mrs. Pulgo raises her hand to ring the doorbell but Charles tugs it back forcefully."Mama, I wanna ring it!" He hollers as he points to the shiny gold button on the wall."Go ahead, Charles, but not too hard."Tel

A STEP CLOSER"I take it the meeting didn't go well?"At least, Tristan's teasing—but concerned—voice was able to add a tinge of color in her grey day. Coupled with her stressful meeting, the taxi she'd boarded developed a fault in the middle of the road so she had to walk back home in the cold. Without a coat.Charlie sighs, "You can say that again."She drops her bag and heads straight to the refrigerator where she pulls out a can of soda and downs it in one go.Fuck brain-freeze.Tristan chuckles from his spot on the couch, "I made dinner.""Oh my God, tha—" She grunts loudly. Her palms rubs her temple softly as she plops on the space beside Tristan. Add brain-freeze to the list.The mini torture lasts for a minute before Charlie blinks tiredly and relaxes further on the couch, another sigh escaping her lips.Tristan lowers the v

HE'S NOT WORTH ITThe Denisons preferred to arrive fashionably late.What did Charlie expect from a dramatic couple? The wait wasn't long, maybe forty-five minutes to one hour but hey, who's counting?Charlie doesn't understand why she's so riled up to meet their client. Maybe it's because one of the client is her ex-boyfriend. Her hot sexy ex-boyfriend.The doorbell rings and Charlie's head snaps towards its direction. The tiny flicker of hope evaporated when a short woman struts in with her ridiculously wide purse.The ginger head huffs loudly before her eyes trials to her boss; the man currently gobbling down his second plate of food. Charlie is suddenly rethinking if it was wise that she agreed to hold the meeting in Mr. Gibson's favorite restaurant."Are you sure we didn't mix up the ti—" Charlie begins but her assistant immediately cut her o

A SURPRISE VISIT"Charlie?"A surprised voice bellows from the side of the half-covered counter. Theresa Boston, Charlie's supposed assistant, laughs loudly before walking out and pulling her into a hug."Theresa, how are you?" Charlie smiles widely.Charlie begins walking as Theresa continues to chew her ear off on the 'eventful' events that has happened with the four months they haven't seen each other.That's exactly what Charlie loves about her job. Not seeing people often. One doesn't need to edit from a confined cubicle or go the lunch with co-workers while they discuss their latest hookup."—oh, and you have a meeting with the boss around 12:30pm, it's gonna run till 2 o'clock, I think?" Theresa trails off.Charlie pulls her laptop from her bag, "A meeting? Why?"Theresa shrugs with a smirk, "Well, I don't know... It seems like LeCara doesn't

Chapter 1: Just a side chick
JUST A SIDE CHICK"Hey. Hey, baby, wake up." The 6'2" man shakes the sleeping dinosaur beside him. His head is foggy and messy and the events of last night were blurry but he knew it was long. Very long.Charlie moans as she rolls herself awake. Her eyes stay shut for some seconds but almost immediately, she opens them and grins sluggishly, "Hey, Marrie,"'Marrie' cringes and shoots Charlie a playful glare to which the latter giggles and leans upward to place a chaste kiss on his lips. Mario Denison moves his head so fast to avert the kiss."Morning breath." He simply states.Charlie nods and places a peck on his cheek instead. She jumps from the bed to the floor which was probably a bad idea because she came tumbling face-first to the floor."Ow. You definitely tore me a new one, Mario."A smirk appears on Mario's face at the power boost to his ego and... Down ther...
