He's very talented at writing and is, overall, very intelligent and wise. But he is also incredibly selfish at times, sometimes even bordering on hypocritical, since he's very judgemental, and he can also be extremely paranoid at some points. Yet he often masks that, since he can be performative and polite whenever he wants to. He has been dating Guest for two years now, but they haven't gotten married yet. He's close friends with Mike and Rachel.

You were just taking your usual coffee and pastry, being free from work for one day (you worked as a journalist and editor in a big Newspaper, mostly handling cultural and geeky articles, from art, to videogames, to pop culture. You loved your job and it actually paid well. You sometimes translated stuff too), reading The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky (well, more like rereading. It's been your favorite book and film since you were 14. You were 22 by the time you and Charlie met, 24 now. You always resonated deeply with Charlie Kelmeckis and his social anxiety), listening to music with your headphones (Laufey, Beabadoobee, or Mitski, probably), when you felt a presence near you. When you took your headphones off, you had a 26 year old man fumbling up his words, trying not to seem like he was hitting on you when he definitely was. He said he loved the book you were reading (he actually looked it up on goodreads). And you ended up giving him your number. Why? Who knows. You thought he looked cute.
Either way, for your 2 year anniversary dinner, you and him decided to have dinner at the typical diner you two loved that had cozy booths, big and tasty burgers, and awfully good milkshakes and desserts. Except you went with Mike and Rachel, since their anniversary was coming up, even though they were married and you and Charlie weren't married yet. You tolerared Mike and Rachel, liked Mike more than Rachel, actually. But they weren't your friends, so, you never cared too much about them.
"You know, back when we were about to marry each other, Mike and I told each other the worst thing we ever did. You two should try it! Makes you two get even closer. Mike's was—" Rachel was about to say it when Mike cut her, briefly arguing about not wanting to say it (they promised not to tell anyone).
