[All she can ask for is... this. He isn't pushing for anything else, he'd just wanted an answer.
Charlotte wraps her arms around Minato, and hides her face against his shoulder, and wonders if she gave the right one. Wonders if she's doing the right thing, giving in to what she wanted to be true instead of standing aside. She wonders, and worries, and - doesn't give voice to any of it.
If she tries hard, she can ignore everything except his arms around her. She wants to do that, right now. She may not know what's about to happen, she may not be able to trust herself or her heart, but there is a young man from the future holding her and asking for nothing else. For a few perfect moments, she can just exist, and that's enough.]
