It was 3 AM and in this neighborhood a pound on the door isn't what you want to hear. I was sleep walking down the steps when I heard someone continuing to pound on the door.
"Hold the fuck up, I'm coming." I said annoyingly.
"Y/N, please I need to talk to you!" the deep voice which I recognized was Carl's.
I slowly opened the door to see Carl's horror stricken face. I was surprised to see him after we had our fight. I was pretty upset that he wouldn't talk to me or be seen with me anywhere because of his new "personality" and all he said was that was I too good to be around his bad boy ways. I secretly liked Carl and I didn't mind being around him because even though he was a bad boy he was my bad boy. The one who would hurt anyone who hurt me and I appreciated it.
" What are you doing here? I thought you didn't want to be ne..." I questionably asked him but suddenly got cut off.
"Nick killed someone earlier today and I don't know who else to go to." he said near tears.
"Come in."
I lead him to the pull out couch and ran upstairs to go fetch some blankets and pillows. He had already stripped out of his clothes just into his boxers. It literally took me everything not to jump on him.
"Well goodnight"
"Thanks. Don't know what I'd do without you."
"No problem. Goodnight Carl." I said as I crossed my arms over my boobs that were exposed due to my flimsy tank top.
"Goodnight, Love" he said getting under the warm covers.
I blushed as I turned off the lights and ran up the stairs.

6 AM
I hear the floor boards creaking and then I hear my door open slowly.
"Who's there?!"
"Sorry Y/N! I didn't know you were awake. I'm sorry! uhhhhh....I'll leave" he said seeing that I was just frustrated that I wasn't sleeping.
"Carl, what the actual hell. What's wrong?"
"Remember when we were little I used to climb into your window when Frank would wake up the whole house and just lay with you. I guess I just missed being with you."
"Carl, that was a long time ago. You hate me now so..." I said with hurt and anger in my voice.
" I don't hate you at all. You are my best friend. Just don't leave me right now, I need you." he said adamantly.
"Lay with me. I guess I missed you too." I said with a smirk.
He quickly shut the door while I peeled back the covers for him. The rest of the night we had talked about anything and everything. I truly missed my best friend and now that's he's back in my embrace I don't plan on letting him go.
