Charlie Spring Quotes

Nick Nelson: Can you promise to tell me if it ever gets that bad again?

Charlie Spring: I just don’t wanna annoy you or burden you. I don’t want you to think I’m some fragile, broken mess. Like you need to fix me. I would hate that.

Nick Nelson: You’re not, and I wouldn’t. But I’ve done so many things that were scary in the past few months because you were there, holding my hand. And I wanna be that for you too. Like, you’re my boyfriend. Char, can you just please, please promise me?

Charlie Spring: Okay.

(Nick kisses his forehead and then kisses him on the mouth)

Nick Nelson: I love your hair so much.

Charlie Spring: Nick. I really need to go.

Nick Nelson: I love your eyes.

Charlie Spring: For God’s sake.

Nick Nelson: I love…

(Nick’s mom arrives home, Charlie has to go home, outside he starts to type a message to Nick: “I love you”)

(Charlie starts kissing Nick’s neck…)

Charlie Spring: Is this okay?

Nick Nelson: Uh… Yeah.

Charlie Spring: That didn’t sound very sure.

Nick Nelson: Uh… Sorry. Um… I… I do like it. It’s just, um… I’m… I’m not sure I’m ready to do anything more than kissing.

Charlie Spring: No, I… I didn’t think we’d do… that right now.

Nick Nelson: Oh. I do… I do want to.

Charlie Spring: Yeah. Me too. Eventually.

Nick Nelson: Yeah. Same.

Charlie Spring: And I’d only wanna do it if you did, and… if you didn’t ever wanna do it, then I wouldn’t either. That sounded really cheesy. Oh, I’m so embarrassing!

Nick Nelson: I think we both are, to be honest.

Charlie Spring: Why are we like this?

Nick Nelson: I have no idea.

Charlie Spring: Kissing’s still okay though?

(They resume kissing…)

Nick Nelson: Charlie. I’ve noticed you, uh, don’t really eat a lot. Um… Generally. Or… I don’t know. It kinda feels like it’s gotten worse lately? Like, I feel like you eat less than you used to.

Charlie Spring: Yeah. I’m sorry. I’m really sorry.

Nick Nelson: Hey, no. You have nothing to be sorry about. I just… I wanna understand.

Charlie Spring: I know I don’t eat like normal people. Some days I’m fine, but other days I feel like I need to… control it. I used to do it a lot last year, when everything at school was really bad. Sometimes it feels like the only thing I can control in my life. That makes zero sense. You can forget I said…

Nick Nelson: It does make sense. Okay, maybe I don’t totally get it, but… I still wanna know if you’re feeling like that. If you’re having a bad day, or… if there’s anything that I can do to make things less stressful. Cheering you up. I’m your boyfriend, Charlie. And I… I really care about you.

Charlie Spring: Maybe we should forget the coming-out plan for a while.

Nick Nelson: Really?

Charlie Spring: Yeah. Let’s just stay low-key in Paris, and then it’ll be the summer holidays, and we can just be us.

Nick Nelson: That does sound nice.

Charlie Spring: Yeah.

Nick Nelson: You sure you’re okay with it?

Charlie Spring: Yeah. Just… Obviously I want you to come out when and how you want to. And if that takes a long time, that’s completely okay. But… I guess part of me just wants everyone to know you’re my boyfriend.

Nick Nelson: I promised.

Charlie Spring: What do you mean?

Nick Nelson: When we went to the beach. I told you I was gonna come out, but… I’ve just been finding it so hard.

Charlie Spring: You didn’t promise anything. I think there’s this idea that when you’re not straight, you have to tell all your friends and family immediately. Like you owe it to them. But you don’t.

Nick Nelson: You told Harry to piss off. I enjoyed that.

Charlie Spring: So did I. I’d do it again.

Nick Nelson: Yeah?

Charlie Spring: I’d fight them.

Nick Nelson: You’d fight?

Charlie Spring: I’d fight anyone who’s mean to you.
