When they said “a fresh start” they really weren’t kidding, Charlie realized as he posed for the picture. He’d gone to Mile High because he needed a fresh start. He was only 21, but he already had a drinking problem and massive debt. He didn’t really have much in the way of options left.

The idea was to keep them away from temptation. “Katherine” was in school on a full ride scholarship, had several siblings, and was working at Hooters, of all places. Charlie didn’t really like being a chick, and definitely didn’t enjoy working at Hooters, but what the hell. Better then what he had, that’s for sure.
