Chapter 5: The truth

While Stan was watching the mandalorian he heard a knock at the door. He walks over to open it. There Charlie stood.

Charlie: Hiya Stan.

Stan: What is it?

Charlie: Well I was giving you a reminder of your appointment tomorrow.

Stan: Oh. I already told Vega about it.

In the background the mandalorian is playing.

Charlie: I see. Hey what are you watching?

Stan: Oh I'm watching the mandalorian on Disney plus. The TVs here are able to use it.

Charlie: Oh. I didn't know. Well can I watch it with you?

Stan: Sure. I only just started so it's fine.

Charlie: Great.

She sits down on the bed and Stan later down. They watched it up to episode 8.

*Scout trooper hits baby yoda*

Charlie: Bur-But why'd he do that? That's so mean.

Stan: I know right. It's only a baby.

Time skip to end of the episode. Charlie is fast asleep. Stan checks the time it's 2:13am. He picks her up and brings her to where her room is and tucks her in.

Stan: Well I need to go to sleep anyways.

He goes back to his room falls flat on his bed and falls asleep. He wakes up at 10:00 am and does his normal routine. He waits until his appointment starts.

Stan: (in head) It's weird how Charlie easily fell asleep in my room. I thought she'd be awake until the episode ended but eh.

*TIMESKIP to 12:50*

In Charlie's office.

Charlie: (in head) Stan's appointment is in 10 minutes. I hope he isn't late. Last night I did have fun watching the mandalorian with him but, maybe I do have feelings for him.

Then there's a knock at the door.

Charlie: Come in!

Stan: Hey Charlie I'm here for my anger management appointment.

Charlie: Ah Yes Stan sit down. So last time you didn't get to tell me why you were so angry and hated demons.

Stan: Oh... yeah. I'll tell you. About 4 years ago when I went into the military there was a demon invasion. I went to my house with my best friends Nash and Guile *he pulls out their dog tags* and heard screaming. We broke down the door. A-and *sniffles* I saw my wife and son there dead. The hell knight had broken in and killed them. My beautiful Rose and shining star Conor laid there in blood. I was married to her for 15 years. And she-she was just killed like that. My son had the greatest grades in his school. They helped me through so much and-*starts screaming and bawling his eyes out*

He gets up and flips over the table as Charlie tries to calm the silverback gorilla of a man he was. He threw a chair at the wall and broke down the door and sits back down.

This basically happens.

Charlie: Hey Stan it's ok.

She hugged him.

Charlie: They are in a better place. And will always be with you.

Stan: Thanks. But the worst thing is this. You remind me of her.

Charlie: *Blushing* Really?

Stan: Yeah. She had beautiful blonde hair, rosy cheeks, and even a smile that can warm even the coldest of hearts. Just like you.

He said that and then blushed instantly after seeing Charlie's reaction.

Charlie: Wow. I didn't know that. I'm so sorry about your family though. I now understand everything.

Stan: I'm glad I was able to finally talk about my issues with others.

He then left but Charlie was thinking about how he said his wife looked just like her. Maybe just maybe he was meant for her.

2 weeks later.

One night when Stan woke up from a bad dream he heard the sound of banging coming from Charlie's office. He listened in to hear what she was saying.

Charlie: Why doesn't anyone listen to me. I have been nice to the people of hell and they just spit in my face. I want to help them but they won't listen.

Stan: Hey Charlie.

Charlie: Wah. *jumps up* Stan. What are you doing up so late?

Stan: I had a bad dream and came down here to look for some coffee. Also why are you so hard on yourself.

Charlie: I-I just can't deal with the fact that people don't listen to me. I want people to go to heaven or become reincarnated but nobody wants to.

Stan: I know how we can make them listen.

Charlie: Really? How?

Stan: Here I'll tell you.

Stan briefs her in on his plan and tells her to get another spot on the news.
