    Summary

    "When they reached the door, Edwin peered through the glass as Charles pulled on the handle.

    "Locked", Charles mumbled, unhappy. He straightened to look at the paper. The letters were clear enough, but they were mirrored, and it took Edwin's brain a few seconds to work them out. Charles did not seem to have that problem.

    He read without hesitation: "Gym closed for the day due to weather warning."

    Edwin stared at him.

    "You read that mirrored so easily?"

    "Yeah. Why?"

    Edwin gestured helplessly, trying not to think about how attractive he found that. "That is witchcraft, Charles."

    "One does try." Charles gave a modest shrug.

    Edwin looked from the sign to the locked door and back again. "So. We are stuck.""

    or

    A thunderstorm brings Edwin and Charles closer together than they expected.

    Summary

    Edwin is still seated at the desk, his heavy brows set in a frown. “Where are we going?”

    “Dunno. Out.” Charles strides over to lean next to him. “What's that museum you were going on about? Or we haven't scared the daylights out of ghost hunters in ages, that’s always a laugh. Or gone sightseeing, I've always wondered if we'd be able to mirror hop to the reflecting pool at the Taj Mahal.” He nudges Edwin’s leg with his foot. “Come on, Edwin. The night is young and so are we.”

    Summary

    But it did rather give him an idea. He had been withholding his own affection since realising the extent of his feelings, terrified of taking advantage of Charles’ kindness. Yet now Charles knew all, and, although he did not return those feelings, still accepted Edwin as completely as he always had.
    Surely, then, he would not mind if Edwin continued to speak the truths of his heart?

    Or: Five ways Edwin shows his love for Charles, and one way Charles returns it all.
