KARL'S POV:

The tv in front of me flickers with bright colors, none of which I can pay attention to. That's when I hear a loud banging on the door.

I stand up with a sigh and make my way to the door. Before I open it I look through the window to see a small figure standing there. One that I recognize. I quickly unlock the door and come face to face with them.

"y/n? what are you doing here? And why this late...?" I ask, glancing at my phone, brightly glowing in my face, showing the time

2:16 AM

I take a good look at them, it's been years since we last spoke... yet they still look the same...

"I uh.... I don't know." They say as their eye shift to the ground. They fumble with their hands as they look back up to me. Guilt hiding behind their eyes. "What did you do..." I ask.

"I can't say too much... but— I just wanted to come say goodbye.. I know we haven't talked in years, but I felt horrible and... I wanted to at least say goodbye before I leave." They say, running their hands through their knotted hair. I notice the dark bags under their eyes, showing they haven't been getting enough sleep lately.

"Leave..? Why are you leaving? What's going on y/n?" I ask, tilting my head in confusion.

"I said I cant say anything. I'm sorry.." They look into my eyes and let out a sigh, before saying

"Goodbye, Karl."

As they turn around to walk away, I panic and quickly grab their wrist, pulling them towards me and attach my lips to theirs. Their eyes widen in shock, not knowing what to do. After a few seconds, they relax and melt into the kiss.

After a few seconds, we pull back, both of us breathing heavily, faces inches apart. We sit there, staring into each other's eyes as we share a breath.

With tears in my eyes, I wrap my arms around their waist, holding their body flushed against mine. I keep my grip on their body tight, like if I let go they would disappear.

"Please, y/n... Please stay."

Their grip around my torso tightens, as their eyes look everywhere other than my face.

They shake their head and grab my arms, peeling them off of their body and stepping away from me. They stare into my eyes, tears running down their face.

"Hey man, I love you, but no fucking way."
