Ao3, Please Come Back 🥲

“Peace was never an option”

“I’m here for my family too.”

Okay hear me out :

(It’s a vague idea that I just had while reading “Old times” from Harold Pinter)

Charles and Erik were old friends, they met when they were rlly young (maybe around 10) but Erik moved away when they were in their twenties. They haven’t seen in almost 20 years.

Charles is now married (with Moira) but doesn’t have any kids.

One day Charles receives a letter. Erik is asking if he can come over to his house for a weekend.

Charles accepts ofc.

Erik isn’t married (he was but had a nasty divorce a few years prior)

As soon as he arrives, Charles realizes something was missing to his life all those years.

Erik is flirting openly.

Moira doesn’t seem to realize (she doesn’t but doesn’t say anything bc Charles seems finally happy)

Charles decides to go take a bath.

Moira and Erik talk about Charles. About his twenties. She tells how they met, so does Erik.

She realizes what kind of relationship the two of them had all of those years ago.

They were lovers.

Erik had to leave bc his parents died and he accepted a job offer back in Germany.

[something happens]

At night Moira talks to Charles, tell him that she knows. Charles panics bc homosexuality is still illegal. She reassures him and explain that she’s happy he’s being his true self. Bc in almost twenty years she hasn’t seen that much joy and love in his eyes.

He says that he loves her.

« I know, my love, but you don’t look at me the same way you look at him. Your heart has never been mine. It has always been his. »

The next day, Moira decides to go to her sister’s just to give them time together. She understands. She supports it.

Erik and Charles talk a lot. They play chess. And it feels right.

For the first time in years, Charles feels like a whole.

Erik puts his hand on Charles’, locks his eyes in Charles’ and with a smile, lean over the chess board and kisses him. A gentle and loving kiss.

After all these years, they are reunited. They are together. Where they should have always been.

« I have been dreaming about this day, mein schatz. And it is even better than everything I could have dreamed of. »

Magneto, who came so hard from Charles tele-topping him from the other side of the country that he went blind for like twenty minutes this morning:

Hi !

I just wrote my first Cherik fic on AO3, so if you like sad endings it’s a good fic for you ! but I swear it’s good and worth it !

Here’s the link !

This but it’s Erik going on a mission with the Brotherhood and Charles is pissed off at him for leaving that long again

"If I don't reply by tomorrow, then consider me dead." It's been two years since you got that message, and you haven't seen them since. Suddenly, your phone lights up: "Sorry, that took longer than I thought."
