Apocalyptic Love

Guess Who Is Back- Chapter 41

Carl had woken up with his hair kinda messy. He got up and went to the bathroom to brush it. He created a knot in his hair since he never brushed his hair on his own. He sighed and looked down. "I wish Leslie was here...she always made my hair soft and knew exactly how to brush it and not make knots..." He buried his face into his hands and decided to leave his hair how it was. Marie was the second one to get up and she saw Carl. She walked up to him and says "Carl? What's up with your hair?" Carl says moving his hair away from his face "My hair is messy, I accidentally created a knot attempting to brush it." Marie says giggling a little "Carl, why didn't you just say something, one of us girls would've helped." Marie goes to the bathroom and comes back out with a brush. Marie drags Carl to the living room and Carl sits on the floor. Marie sits on the couch and starts brushing his hair. Carl says sighing "I remember when Leslie always used to brush my hair..." Marie sighs and says "Yeah...You really miss her, huh?" Carl nods his head as his response. Marie continues to brush his hair and says "And I bet she misses you too, she always talked about you." Carl says "S-she did...?" Marie nods her head and says "She always called you handsome, and she always talked about how you guys met, your first kiss, how you guys always held hands, all that stuff, she loved you so much." Carl sighs and says "I wanna see her again so badly..." Marie sighs and finishes brushing Carl's hair, gets down from the couch and crouches in front of Carl. "You will see her again, maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, or even next week. But you guys will see each other again because you guys were the cutest couple ever. You guys were meant to be in love, meant to be together. Forever." Carl moves his hair out of his face and says "Forever?" Marie nods her head. Carl smiles and says "I guess we will meet again. I am still sad about her, but I just need to be patient and me and her will see each other again." Marie says "That's the spirit!" Judith walks over to them and says "I'm hungry." Marie looks at Judith and says "Alright, she woke up." Asher runs to Marie and Carl and says "Food?" Marie picks up Asher. Carl picks up Judith and they both go to get them some breakfast.

At about 5 o clock. Carl was in the house when he heard some walkers at the door. They were groaning and Shiva kept growling. Mochi was hissing at the door. Carl went through the back door because the walkers must have been right at the door and he probably would have died if he opened it. He walked to the front and it was 5 walkers. Carl whistled and the walkers turned to face him. Carl started walking backwards and the walkers, of course, started following. Carl kept walking backwards watching where he was going. Luckily, Marie was out there and whistled and only one walker went towards her. Carl got shocked. Marie killed that walker. The walker fell to the ground. Marie whistled again and one walker went towards her. Carl was still shocked. Carl killed one of the walkers that was following him and Marie killed hers. Marie then whistled again and once more a walker went towards her. She killed it. Carl killed the other. After all the walkers were dealt with, Carl looked at Marie with a shocked look. Marie shrugged and says "I seriously have no idea what it is either."

At 9 o clock. All the teens were in a circle outside in the backyard staring at the fire. Hiro says "Since we are all bored, how about we talk about who we lost and who we miss, like, to help get to know each other." Lia says looking at Hiro "It sounds like a good idea. We don't really talk to each other so much since we are always so busy scavenging for more food and water. We need to start socializing more." Hiro points to himself smirking and says "I shall go first. I lost my brother, and I thought I lost Mochi too but thank god I didn't. My aunt died and my parents died before this whole thing even started." Lia goes next and says "My mom and siblings. I have no idea where my younger siblings are but, I miss them. My mom died and my older sister and dad are somewhere." Eliza says "My mom." Drew says "My mom and my 3 older siblings. We had a dog too, no idea where he is now." Sophia says "My dad, he was abusive to my mom but, I lost him." Queen says "My parents. My sister is somewhere out there." Alyssa says "My parents. My dogs are out there somewhere." Tuba says "Parents and my brother." Marie says "Parents and sibling." Blake says "Parents and twin brother." Enid says "I don't even remember anymore." Kelvin says "Parents and siblings." Carl says "My mom, Glenn, T-dog, Hershel........and even Leslie..." Sophia says "But, she isn't dead..." Carl looks down and says "She may not be, and she just might. She hasn't responded to me in days...she hasn't even left one sign for me..." 

Suddenly they all hear a knock. Kelvin rushes to go and open it. He opens the door and he sees a familiar face. Carl opens the door and is shocked. 

Ron waves at them and enters the house. Carl says "Where have you been?" Ron says "I was at the community for a while, trying to help re build it, we did some re building but there is still more to be done, places have been burned down. Houses have been torn down and destroyed. Blood was everywhere which involved a bunch of cleaning. Getting rid of all the bodies of everyone and burning them. Some people who were special would have a proper funeral." Carl just goes back to the backyard, sad that it wasn't Leslie who knocked. 

At night, Carl goes out for a walk. He walks into the woods and goes to the area where he left the food. It isn't there. There was only a note that was left on a tree. It said "I accept the food. I was scavenging and found that this was from you. I'll accept it because I don't want you to be sad. I hope we do meet again, and I hope everyone is doing well without my lame ass. -Leslie." Carl reads it and smiles. 

THE END 

So, Leslie is still alive.
