If you haven't played the first episode of the walking dead, season four, this chapter may be a little confusing for you. Also, there are some (somewhat) spoilers. Contains cursing and other stuff. Anyway, hope you'll enjoy reading this story!
As Marlon's corpse lays on the muddy dry grass, I notice everyone staring at AJ. Everyone is shocked in what just happened. It was so silent, you could hear a pin drop. "We just lost our fucking privilege of staying here," I say to myself.
Everyone splits off into groups, to talk about what just happened. I walk towards AJ, with a stern look on my face. "AJ! I was compromising with Marlon! You can't just shoot him!" I see the depressiveness in his dark brown eyes. "He was going to hurt us, Clem. He was a threat to us." Replies AJ. I breathe in, and then out. AJ does have a point, I must say. Marlon traded young kids, to keep the rest of the group safe, which was uncalled for. Brody said we were in danger, if those raiders came back. We still are, if that strange guy survived. I say to AJ "You are aware, we have a chance of being kicked out now, right?" AJ looks at the ground. "Give me the gun, AJ. You have to earn my trust with this." AJ tosses the gun at my chest, and runs off into the school. I put the gun in my back pocket, and chase after him. I see him storm up the wooden creaky stairs. I figure he's going up to our room. It's probably for the better if I let him be for awhile.
I wonder if I should go talk to the rest of the group. I have no clue if my reputation has dropped, or not. II open the school's wooden door, and close it behind me. As I walk down the stairs, I see Louis sitting alone. I feel my heart sink into my stomach as if I shot Marlon. I feel so guilty. Louis was best friends with Marlon. I feel so bad for him. I sit on the steps, and let out a huff. I see Violet come and approach me. "Hey. Been quite a night, hasn't it?" Violet says in a low soft voice. "Yeah. I just hope AJ and I won't be kicked out. I don't think we'll make it out there, without a vehicle." Violet sits down on the steps with me. "Not everyone's going to be a fan of AJ killing Marlon. I think he and you made the right decision anyhow." A smile skids across my face. "Thanks. I just hope everyone won't hate AJ."
Violet responds with "Marlon was acting like a crazy dude. I mean, I wish he wasn't shot and killed. But, everyone makes bad decisions." "Yeah. Just wondering, who's going to be the leader of the group now?" Violet pauses to think about my question. "I think we're going to decide tomorrow." I look over at Louis, and notice he's still sitting alone. "You should probably talk to Louis. He needs someone right now." I consider what Violet says. "Why don't you talk to him? You know him better." Violet responds with "Haven't you noticed he has a thing for you? Just go and talk to him." She slightly nudges me in his direction, as I start to get up.
"Everyone knows you have something for him. Just be smooth talking to him." I see Violet smile, for the first time.
"Thanks Violet," I say. I get up from my spot, and smile as a goodbye to Violet.
I walk towards Louis with a knot in my stomach. "Hey, how are you doing?" I say with a cheerful voice. He looks at me, with the words "lost" written across his face. "Not that good, if I'm being honest." I sit next to him, to try and comfort him. "I am so sorry for what happened. I had no clue AJ would do something that idiotic." I hear Louis sigh under his breath. "I know Marlon lost his marbles back there. I just think we could've helped him become more stable, y'know?" "He lost more than his marbles," say to myself. "It's hard losing your best friend. It's one of the worst feelings in the world," Louis says in an upset voice. "I know you were close with Marlon. I know it probably tears you up inside, losing him," I state. I see Louis look at me, with tears in his eyes. He quickly wipes the tears away, with his worn out coat. "I hate crying. Life is too short to concentrate on the negative stuff. I just can't let go of Marlon this quick." I agree with Louis. "It's normal to feel negative. Our society isn't what it used to be. Everything was so much better back then," I say. "You have a point there," Louis replies. Silence fills the empty dark sky. "Our society may have changed, but the universe never will," states Louis. "You're right there," I say in an agreeing voice. "I think I'm going to go rest up. Hopefully tomorrow will be better than today," Verbalises Louis.
"I think I'm gonna go to bed too. See you tomorrow," I say. "One more thing, Clem." "What's that?" I question. "Thanks for comforting me. I really appreciate it." I see him grin, and take off into the school. Everyone has pretty much settled in for the night. Wish I had a watch, so I could know the time. I get up from my spot, and go into the school. I walk up the stairs, holding onto the handle bar. I open my bedroom door, to where I see AJ clonked out on a bed. I take off my hat, and put it on the medal desk. I lay down on the bed, and soon enough I'm fast asleep.
