Damn, now she was crying! Charlie would have blushed a little if he was capable of it. His smile softened though, and his eyes grew warmer. Hugging her back tightly, he gave her a good squeeze before letting her go. The kiss on the cheek was a nice addition, and he looked quite proud of himself. "You're welcome. Make sure to thank your mom too."
Charlie watched as Cassie touched her new car for the first time. He remembered that feeling. Cassie looked just as excited as Charlie did the day he bought his first bike. The giddy mood translated into her being all too eager to get behind the wheel. His gait was long and slow as he came around to join her, crouching over to look inside once she let herself in. "Maggie picked it out. I didn't tell her what it was for, because she's miserable at keeping secrets. I just said you needed a new keychain. So.. that's your present from her. She wanted to give it to you herself, so I'm gonna have to steal it back and we'll pretend you've never seen it before, alright?"
