Rarl Oneshots (REQUESTS ARE OPEN)

15

So quick story time. My creative writing class last year asked me to write a story with a story starter and I did. It somehow ended up being a lowkey Hiddlesworth fanfic. So chapter 15 is the same story with Rarl :)

Carl felt chills go down his spine. He shouldn't be looking at the face he's looking at right now. Ron is supposed to be dead. He died three days ago in a car accident. Carl saw him dead. He saw the blood dripping from Ron's fingertips.

"I thought you would be more excited to see me, Carl." He's more shocked than anything. To Carl, there's no explanation for why Ron is standing only a few feet away from him. The only explanation he's got is he's going insane.

"How are you here? Ron, I saw you dead." Ron walked closer to Carl. He could almost feel the cold that is leaking off of Ron. He looks alive, but he shouldn't.

"I did die, but when I went up, I had two options. The first one is to stay up there. The second one is to come back here. The catch is, no one would be able to see me but the one person I choose. I chose you."

Carl is speechless. He just found out that God exists, Ron chose to come back to Earth, and he chose Carl when he has his whole family to choose from.

"You chose me? Ron, you have your whole family to choose from." Carl sits on the couch and stares at nothing. He feels Ron sit next to him. Carl is not sure if he should try to touch Ron, but he's afraid that it's just his mind playing games with him. That he's going insane.

Carl reaches slowly to touch Ron's thigh. Instead of feeling the couch, Carl feels Ron thigh. He pulls back his hand a bit and looks at Ron. Tears quickly form in his eyes. Carl embraces Ron in a tight hug and starts crying on the blonde's shoulder. Ron hugs back and lays his head on Carl's.

The two stay like that until Carl falls asleep. Ron carefully picks up Carl and takes him to their room. He places Carl gently onto the bed and lays down next to him.

Ron feels alive, but he knows he's dead. The reason that is making him feel alive is Carl. The three days he didn't see Carl was horrible. He felt the way he should've felt. Dead. It wasn't rocket science to pick to obvious choice.

<~>

"Enid I think I'm going insane. Ron's death isn't doing well for me." On the other end, Enid smiles weakly. Ron's death isn't doing well for everyone too.

"Why?" Her voice sounds week, but Carl doesn't comment on it.

"He's with me right now. I can only see, hear, and feel him. No one else can see, hear, or feel him. Only me." Enid stays quiet on the other end, trying to think if Carl actually is going insane.

"Prove it to me. I don't know how you're going to do it, but you better prove it to me." Enid hangs up and Carl looks at Ron. The blonde gives a 'I don't know' look to Carl. Suddenly Carl's phone dings. It's from Enid.

'I'm on my way.'

Ok that gives the couple about ten minutes to figure out how to prove to Enid that Ron's spirit is here. It's quiet for about three minutes when Ron shoots up.

"I got it! Ok so you're going to tell me to do something. Like maybe knock over something or give you a book. Enid won't be able to see me, but she'll be able to-."

"See the object." They both smile at each other and laugh a little bit.

"Bingo." The doorbell rings indicating that Enid is at their front door. Carl gets up and opens the door. Enid's physical appearance doesn't look so well, but what do you expect when your best friend just died.

Carl and Enid exchange a hug without saying a word to each other. Enid makes herself comfortable on the couch near by the window.

"Is he here right now, Carl?" Carl nods and Enid tries to look for a sign that he is.

"Ron, can you get me a drink please." Enid looks toward the kitchen to see if anything is happening. When she hears the refrigerator door open to gets up to see if anyone is in the kitchen. She's expecting Mikey or Judith being there but she finds no one.

A cold water is grabbed by "nothing" and given to Carl. Carl smiles to his right and opens his water. Enid looks to Carl's right and smiles too. Ron looks shocked. It seems Enid knows exactly where his eyes are. Enid looks back to Carl and tears are already forming in her eyes.

"I don't know if he can hear me, but can you tell Ron I love him? And that I miss him so much."

"I miss you too Enid. And I love you too so much." Ron says. Carl repeats what Ron says shortly after.

Enid nods and looks down, trying to cover her face because she's crying. Carl goes over to her and hugs her tightly. Ron walks over and hugs them too. If Enid thought hard enough, she could almost feel Ron's arms around her too.
