Dr. Charles
A gay boy in El Paso who is Dante’s kissing partner. He and Dante meet at the drugstore where they both work. Though Dante insists to Ari that Daniel is attractive and nice, Ari finds Daniel a despicable and cowardly person—he ran when Julian and his cronies tried to attack him and Dante, and he didn’t try to visit Dante in the hospital or make sure he was okay. Dante eventually comes to agree with Ari.
