This was my gift to baseballchica03 for the 2011 fandom_stocking holiday exchange. It's a story that's been brewing in the back of my mind for a couple of months now, with little more direction than "I want to write some Charlie & Janine fic!" fandom_stocking proved to be the perfect deadline-maker, LOL.

( Points of interest... )

baseballchica03 seemed to really enjoy this story, and I'm glad, considering how heavy it is. These two are starting to feel more and more comfortable to me, and I'm sure this isn't the last time I'll be writing for them, either individually or as a pairing =)
