Charlie had hoped the ban on travel would be rescinded relatively quickly. He had no belief that it would last days, or even weeks after the quarantine had gone down. They had a cure now, what was the big deal?
In the dome he'd itched to be out of it. Now he was out of it, all he wanted was to be out of Britain! He missed the camping and the hiking and flying of the Dragon Preserve. He missed the freedom of the countryside he'd come to see as his home. Even without the luxuries of modern indoor plumbing, it was paradise to Charlie. Dragons were all he needed.
Now he didn't even have a job. His father had promised to poke around in the Department for Regulation of Magical Creatures for an opening, but it wasn't what Charlie wanted. He wanted to go back to Romania!
To fill his time, Charlie found himself drifting towards the pub. He'd cut off his relationship with Veive (perhaps a little too late to avoid the emotions he'd been afraid of) and he'd been slowly reducing his visits to see his son. Charlie had it in his mind that the moment the travel ban went down he could sever the roots that were trying to hold him down in England and fly off back to his dragons.
For now, he had beer.
At four pm.
On a Monday...
Yes, it wasn't the best set up.
