After graduating from Georgetown, Charlie was forced to make good on a promise he made to the President to move on and leave his job as the President's bodyman once he graduated. Charlie found it hard to leave the White House and began passing his resumé around the West Wing. C.J. Cregg, the newly appointed Chief of Staff, asked Charlie to stay in the West Wing as a special aide to the Chief of Staff. A man named Curtis replaced Charlie as President Bartlet's bodyman.

Charlie began dating Zoey Bartlet, the President's youngest daughter, in Season 1. Because of this, he was the target of an assassination attempt by a white supremacist group at the end of Season 1. He and Zoey later broke up, though he often professed his love for her, much to her chagrin (and secret delight). As Season 5 progressed, Charlie briefly had a new love interest. At first there was no clear indication on whether Charlie and Zoey would reunite, although he asked her out on a date and they were later sighted sitting next to one another at Zoey's birthday party in the East Room watching Penn and Teller burn a flag. Later in Season Six, it was revealed that they have gotten back together, as evidenced by Charlie sneaking out of Zoey's room and being caught by the President. The next day, Charlie hinted he was planning on asking Zoey to marry him, but the show never revisited this plot. Elisabeth Moss as Zoey Bartlet in The West Wing episode Commencement (2003). ...

After finding many and having them all rejected by his boss, Charlie finally asked why it was so important, only to be told that a knife should be an heirloom which is passed from father to son. Charlie asked why, in that case, Bartlet himself didn't have one, and Bartlet replied that he had, but was giving it away.
