[color=black]|| BIOGRAPHY ||[/color]
- When his first wife was pregnant, starts digging graves looking for money


[indent]
A farmers son, through and through. from six to sixteen he was in the barn tending to the cows while dad handled the greenhouse where they grew their hemp (happy cows make good milk, stoned cows make great milk). For the first ten years he was the only son, then Montana came along and life changed a little. When dad died on Charels sixteenth birthday, life changed a lot. When mom left two years later, his life ended. He had to be the dad for an eight year old sister, the next ten years were hell on that farm. 
He couldn't hire hands without risk someone would spill or steal the family secret of potfarming cowpies. The only others who knew was the dairy 'next door' a mile down the road, who processed the milk for him since he couldn't make the cheese as well as run the farm all by himself. What help he got from mo, little as it was, was harder than pulling teeth from a rattlesnake and took ten times as long.  "You're not Dad, Charles! You can't tell me what to do all the damn time!" Was a weekly mantra that usually ended with someone out the front door.

Just when it all seemed lost, came Clementine.

She came to the dairy down the road trying to get away from some 'city trouble' and they asked Chuck if he needed a farm hand he could trust. Lust became like and like became love. It took a couple years of trying with the farm springing back to life before life sprang up in Clementine. Against his better wishes, Clementine insisted that they keep their door open to Montana. 

[color=00aeef]"She needs to know she has a safe harbor, no matter how bad the storm is outside or the storm brewing in your heart." [/color] 

When Clementine announced that she was pregnant, Charels didn't seem that happy as he walked out, he came back that night covered in mud and told her he got a new job to help pay for their new addition. He started working as the graveyard caretaker and put all the money from the second job into a coffee can (that Mo would pick out of behind his back and clementine would cover for her). While digging one of the graves, he came upon an old trinket for her, a civil war bet buckle. He figured one day they could sell it for her college, until then. it just got more valuable the older it got.  

The day their daughter was born, they agreed that each one got to pick part of the name, Clementine could pick any first name, he got to pick the middle name. She chose Cameron for the Scottish name for a crooked river, for it was at the river she was conceived. He picked Victoria for Clementine's first name.

The first year was heaven, then it all went to hell. She went for a drive in the truck to pick up their daughter from the babysitter after their anniversary 'date'. Coming up the other side of the road was old man parkers 67 camero but he was driving a bit off. Normally what happened next would have just been a fender bender, but the collision happened on the wet bridge. The truck made a quarter turn, the back tires slid off and flipped it into the mostly mud river. If she hadn't been flattened, she would have drowned.

The drunk driver wasn't even parker, it was some snot nosed kids. Not even fifteen for a permit and barely looking over the dashboard! He'd have killed them, he'd have killed them and slept like a baby that night... But he had a baby of his own now. Now she was his everything.

Anyone could tell you he changed that night. Everyone expected him to be just as bad as his sister, toss his baby girl in a hole and bury her alive then crawl inside a bottle. He seemed like the walking dead for the first year on that farm. Then one day, he up and moves to town. Him and his little girl living in the shack on the grounds while he lets the farm go fallow. Technically, he gave the keys to Mo for a place if she needs it. He goes back once a month, on the 13th, to do maintenance. More than once hes had to drag people off his property or clean up their squatting, but the land his his and as much as it eats him up inside, he's saving it for Cameron. Graduation, wedding, moving out, whatever, its hers in a heartbeat. 

Until then they have the cottage on the hospital grounds he keeps in order, the 67 camero he won in the court hearing to replace his truck, any any honest money he can earn. She never goes without with him around, except perhaps for the fact he's hardly around. Sure she can call and ask what job he's doing, but it seems the older she is getting the later he stays out.

[sub]
Years roll by without you, honey.
Seventeen have come and gone, 
I've raised her with my best intentions.
But there's something I can't tell her,
I'm lost without you here,
I am living out a lie.
[/sub][/indent]
[color=black]|| NIGHTMARE ||[/color]
[indent]His dead wife, Sometimes completely hale and healthy in that summer dress he loved... other times she is the twist of skin and steel crawling towards him as nothing more than a severed torso with her entrails dragging behind her. Honestly, seeing her unharmed hurts him more. He knows what he had and lost.[/indent]
