I heard the nightly tapping on my window, smiling to myself as I knew exactly who it was. I roll my hands into fists and place them gently on my closer eyes, slowly rubbing the sleep out of them. I open my eyes and squint, getting used to the dark of my room.
I finally find the strength to pull myself onto the cold, metal floor. The room I sleep in is cold and heartless- no matter how many decorations I put up. I still find myself haunted with the deaths my father caused. Their ghosts haunt my walls, freezing all comfort away that I could possibly take refuge in. The only thing that seems to warm me is the long-haired boy at my window.
I make my way to the opposite side of my room, and pull the window open. Almost automatically, Carl and I fall into our nightly rhythm. I help him climb through the window, adjusting his hat as needed, and before I know it I’m wrapped up in his strong arms.
“I missed you…” He mutters.
“Carl… it’s been a day”, I lightly chuckle, feeling my attitude soften with every soft breath of his that finds its way to my neck. He suddenly pulls back, and places a soft kiss to my lips before I can even begin to whine. The kiss isn’t rough, or lustful. It’s gentle, his pretty lips dancing with mine to express our love. We pull back, just as Carl says “God, you’re the prettiest boy I’ve ever seen. And you’re mine.”
Our moment is interrupted, as my door suddenly swings open. We freeze, looking like deer in headlights as my father’s shadow stands strong on the floor. I can feel my palms quickly clam up, I feel my heart beat speed up with the adrenaline that is suddenly pumping through my veins. I can’t bring myself to do anything- knowing what’s about to happen.
“Well, what do we have here?” My dad’s booming voice echos throughout the complex, causing me to let out a shaky, unstable breath. My father takes slow, heavy steps towards Carl and I. I can feel his hand squeeze my arm in utter terror, and as a tear slips down my eye, I take my chance.
“Carl… I’m so sorry. I love you…” I whisper, knowing that is all my fault. I shouldn’t have made him sneak in here. I shouldn’t have ever pursued him.
My dad reaches us, and in a sudden motion grasps Carl roughly by the collar of his shirt. “So this is why you’ve been so unfocused, huh son? Well we can’t have that! Now can we?” he announces loudly, hot tears gaining speed along my cheeks. I whisper to myself, the weakest and tiniest “no”.
My dad lets out an evil, disgusting laugh. “I always knew you were a pansy, I guess we’ve gotta toughen you up!” he says, before turning Carl to face me directly. Before I knew it, my very own father had stuck a knife right into the abdomen of the love of my life. I scream out, sobbing as I watch the crimson liquid spill out of Carl. My dad- no, Negan now- drops Carl to the floor, and turns on his heel to walk out the door. “Well, that ought to work! Oh, and he’s going to turn. Have fun…” Negan says, swiftly finding his way out the door and locking it.
I sprint to Carl, dropping to my knees and grabbing his hand tightly. I look him in his bright blue eyes, watching the light from them evaporate by the second. “Carl.. Carl baby I’m so sorry. I’m sorry. I love you…” I whisper through my sobs, throwing my head down towards his chest. I feel his hand squeeze mine, and I feel the wet palm of his other push my hair out of the way of my forehead. “..It- it’s okay my love, the last thing I get to see before I go is you. That’s enough…”.
I can’t help but sob even harder, as we whisper “I love you’s” and hold each other close. Within minutes, I feel Carl go limp. He’s gone.
I close my eyes, and take a deep breath. I gently push myself until my back hits the cold wall of my room, the moonlight just barely illuminating the rest of the area through my window. I know what has to happen now. I know I just have to wait. But, what I don’t know is if I’ll have the strength to do what I need to do….
