I watched as Jennie fell to her death as footsteps were heard from the bushes.
I looked over to the bushes, seeing Ron running towards the tower.
"What happened!?" He screamed as Jennie's scream was cut off with a sickening thud.
I walked over to the railing and peered over the edge. Jennie fell head first, and her head was bent back a little too far, along with her body.
I looked over at Carl, who had his hands gripped onto the railing.
I looked back at Ron, who was now by Jennie's side, screaming at Carl.
"Why?! Why would you do this?!"
Glancing back towards Carl, I saw that he tightened his grip on the railing, but didn't answer.
I watched as Ron fell to his knees and sobbed, cradling Jennie in his arms.
Another pair of footsteps were heard...
"Ron... What happened?" I heard Rick ask.
Ron was still crying...
Just then, I felt Carl grab my wrist and yank me towards him.
He ducked down, and so did I.
"Carl..." I started, but he shushed me, putting a hand over my mouth.
I kept quiet until Ron and Rick went back to camp.
I took Carl's hand off of my mouth. "We need to go back... They could be leaving." I said, but Carl shakes his head.
I felt his lips press against mine softly, so I kissed back.
He wraps his arms around me as I felt the air getting colder...
"I want to go back." I said, feeling my eyes slowly starting to close.
"No... Not yet." He mutters in my ear.
I sigh softly and closed my eyes, snuggling closer to him to get more heat.
