I love you, forever-Carl Gallagher (book two)

Nick

It's been a couple of hours since Carl left. me, Ian, Debbie, and Lip where all laughing and having a good time and then I hear someone coming into the door.

"Hey mamma" Carl says from behind the couch.

"Hey" I say and laugh.

Carl comes and sits next to me and puts his arms around my shoulder. "I'm having a friend over in a little, you can hang out with us if you want. But we ain't gonna be here for long, you can also come with if you want" Carl says to me as he plants a kiss on my forehead.

Some time passes, and we're all drunk as fuck. Then we hear a knock at the back door, and Carl runs up to get it.

"My sleepover is here" Carl says and let's the guy in

I look at him, he is a very tall, very big, very scary looking guy.

"Nick this is my girl, Mya. Mya, this is my friend Nick" Carl says standing in front of me. Nick just stands there staring at me, no expression in his face. Just a blank stare.

Carl grabs my hand, and we go up to his room. I sit down on Carls bed, and he sits next to me. Nick sits on Ian's bed.

"Ok Nick so here's the deal, we're going to go pick up the shit, and then bring it here. But we gotta make sure no one sees us, ok?" Carl says to Nick, and he just nods.

"What are you talking about" I say looking at Carl and Nick.

"Don't worry about it" Carl says and scoffs.

"Yea I am going to worry about it, because last time I went to a deal with you, you ended up in fucking  jail so yes Carl I am going to worry about it" I say annoyed, "you just got out. I don't want you going back in" I say holding back tears.

"Fine, guns, we're picking up guns. Can can you please shut the fuck up about it" Carl says and stands up.

"Fuck you Carl, call me when you're not trying to be black. And let me know when the old Carl comes back ok. Bc you can't just sit here and expect me to not worry. That was traumatizing for me to see. So until then, you can fuck off" I say and slam the door, and walk back home

I hear a faint "whats wrong" from Ian, but I ignore it and keep walking.

I get home and see Kev and V sitting on the couch, they look at me and can tell something is wrong.

"What happed" Kev says "Carl got out, and he's very convinced he's black" I say "and he's being such  a dick. I know he hasn't interacted with a girl in a year, but fuck I didn't think it would be this bad" I say with tears rolling down my face.

"Well just give his some time, he'll be crawling back in no time. Because I know damn well he's horny, and I know damn well you haven't had sex since he's gotten in. So, I say 2 hours at most." V says and stands up and walks into the kitchen.

"Well he has a friend over, his name is Nick. But Carl is already doing all of that sneaky shit, he's going to buy Guns from someone right now" I say in a worried tone.

"He'll be fine" Kev says

I go up to my room and watch T.V until I fall asleep. But I have a nightmare

Dream pov-

Me and Carl where walking to a drug deal "I love you" Carl says and looks at me, squeezing my hand. "I love you too" I say and smile at him.

We get to the deal and sit on the corner. I lay my head on his shoulder, and his hand is on my thigh, while his index finger makes circles on it.

We're sitting there for about 20 minutes when we see a car pass by, and a guy hanging out the window.

"Fuck you Gallagher" the guy says and points a gun at him, and shoots him, right in the head.

"CARL!!" I say, crying and checking his pulse. Nothing.

I rip my shirt off and wrap it around his head, hoping to stop some of the bleeding.

After I do that I quickly dial 911.

After I get off the the phone with them I hear sirens, then I realize Carl has shut in the pocket, I quickly grab it out and shove it in mine.

The EMS gets here and they put him on a stretcher, and load him into the ambulance.

I call Fi and tell her what happened.

We get to the hospital, and they bring him in.

I wait out in the waiting room and see Fiona run in with a panic look on her face.

"Where did he get shot" she says "right in the head" I say and her face goes pale, and I start to get sick, replaying that moment in my head, and looking down and seeing his blood on my hands and pants.

"Gallagher" a doctor says, me and Fi practically run over there.

"I am so sorry for your loss" the doctor says.

Everything goes dark.

END OF DREAM!

I wake up in a cold sweat, I quickly text Carl

Carl🍆🫶
      Hey baby, I'm sorry for yelling at you.     But did everything go ok? I love you.

It's fine, I understand you had every right to yell at me. And yea it went fine. Nick is staying over tonight. But, he's leaving early in the morning if you wanna... ya know. I hope you still have those condoms and that plan B I bought you. 😉😉💦

I laugh and put my phone down in relief, and I quickly fall back asleep.
