Fretting!

I began playing yesterday with my boyfriend. Later on I decided to make another knight and noticed the pool was shared. It was slightly irritating, but nothing that I couldn't get over. I used the justification of "Well, my boyfriend will probably be busy all day with work and house work anyway. And I would like to play, so I can just use my first character to play with him tomorrow so I don't surpass him."
Well, being uneducated about the game and finding out later. This morning, I decided to get on his computer. He has the fast running tower and I have a slow and aged laptop that feels like it takes 20 minutes just to load each loading screen (I feel terrible for making people wait). Well, later I found out that the account was shared after asking about Crystal Energy from someone online. I started freaking out. What if he does get on tonight to play a bit and sees that I used up his energy?!
Is there anyway I can fix it? Could I send in a ticket or proof that we're not the same people? Can I just try to use my laptop from now on and not log on his computer anymore and it won't affect his account? Because I wasted all his mist energy without even realizing it. So it was almost a double blow of using my energy for all my characters and then using all his energy on top of that.
What should I do?

1 more option
Go hustle and bustle and sell your materials. Make 4000 crowns, and buy a 100 energy for him to play on.
Or, just pay like a quarter of real money and buy him some energy on his account (also this way your accounts will no longer share energy and you can play on his computer in the future and not worry about using his energy).

Continued-ish:
Well that part I kind of figured :[. Not discounting what you said. Thank you for the help and information.
My other main worry is... if he plays, lets say tomorrow. Will it drain my energy? Or if I go back to playing my laptop, will it drain his energy in the future? Because I want to be able to play together like we did yesterday and not have any issues.
EDIT: Didn't see your second post. I'm guessing that'll solve that question ~^ ?

From what i understand
accounts on the same computer share energy. So if you are playing on your own computers you should be fine. But once one of you pays any real money at all the accounts no longer share energy even if played on the same computer. That's why it would probably be worth paying like a quarter on one of the accounts so you can use the better computer when you want. Also, you still get the benefit of that quarter spent (in game energy). So even if you are of the mindset that you are not gonna spend money on the game, the 1st quarter would a great utility and make playing more convenient for the rest of the time you play the game...and for just the price of a gumball, lol.

Thanks~
Thank you so much! Life saver!
I think I saw the price earlier and it said .75cents. But that is not too terrible either. Does the price fluctuate or is that just CE on the in-game market? Definitely though, paying once won't kill me. At least until I can get some decent money to donate to the company to say that I enjoyed their game.

The real-world currency price
The real-world currency price for CE does not fluctuate, as that is a controlled market run by OOO. The in-game crown price for CE fluctuates, as that is a player-driven market.

:I think I saw the price
"I think I saw the price earlier and it said .75cents. But that is not too terrible either. Does the price fluctuate or is that just CE on the in-game market?"
The real-life money cost of Crystal Energy doesn't fluctuate.
The in-game conversion rate of Crystal Energy to Crowns, and vice versa, does.
EDIT: Oh, dur. Scooped.

Thanks ^-^ . Much appreciated.
I don't think there is anything you can do.
On the other hand, you guys are in a relationship-->mist energy replenishes every 22 hours-->i think your best answer is gonna be tell him, 'i'm sorry i didn't know that...'. And then he waits 24 hours and plays as usual. Not to be calloused, but him having to wait a day should be remedied by a simple i'm sorry.
Also, i'd tell him as soon as possible. IT would be better for him to be disappointed now, than looking forward to playing and finding out he can't when he logs in.
