Sun light filled the courtyard. Louis had the biggest grin on his face as he turned on his feet to face the table. There was Tenn, Aj, Emily, Willy, Christa, Aasim and Gabe sat at the table, all chuckling away to themselves as they were flinging little bits of food at each other.
"Thanks, Omar." He grinned warmly as he grabbed his steaming bowl of rabbit stew.
Clem showed up, her hat and denim jacket aside for now as it was a heated day. She held the tiny infant in her arms, wrapped in a little cream blanket.
"Morning Clem. Morning Bean." Louis smiled, as he went over to plant a kiss on his girlfriend's cheek. This what it. This is his union. His home. His ninja family.
"Louis..." Aasim sighed as he walked over towards him.
The sun went away, heavy foreboding clouds took over the sky. He looked back at everyone, there was no laughter, there were no smiles. They all sat in the same position. Their hands in a ball at the table, looking down apathetically.
"Your grief...you're not handling it very well." Aasim frowned melancholically, as he placed a hand on Louis' shoulder.
"What? no..." He muttered perplexed. He turned around to his right to see no one there. Clem wasn't there with her smile. And she wasn't with the baby wrapped in a little cream blanket.
"NO!" He suddenly yelled as he stumbled backward, tripping over a stone and falling back. He shuffled back in a state of panic, looking up at Aasim with his fear-stricken eyes.
"I'm sorry Louis..." He heard Clem's voice whimper in the back of his head.
"I'm so sorry."
...
Louis sat on the end of his empty bed in his candlelit room. Holding the whimpering infant in his arms. Her tiny hand wrapped around his finger, poking out through the dirty cream blanket. He bounced her gently in his strong arms.
"I love you little one." He smiled lovingly at his child as her heavy eyelashes began to flutter.
"I love you so much..."
...
Aj sat at the table alone, murky clouds covering the sky. He put his chin in his hand as he slouched against the picnic table.
"Aj...you alright little dude?" Louis asked cautiously as he walked over to the young afroed boy,
"Nothin..." He mumbled as he fiddled with broken chips of the wooden table.
"Hey. What is it?" Louis pried as he sat next to the young boy, and placed his hand on his shoulder.
"It's just... I was wonderin..." He continued as he looked up at Louis. Then cutting himself off with a sigh and looking down again.
"It's okay Buddy. You can tell me." Louis smiled kindly at the child, trying to get him to open up.
He sat up straight, knocking off Lou's hand as he turned to face him. Louis listened carefully with a confused frown.
"What's depes- depeson?"
...
Louis had tears running down his face. His hands on his chest, clutching on his shirt as he struggled to breathe.
He suddenly gained a look of anger. Looking out his bedroom window, into the darkness. He ignored the tears that were spilling from his eyes. He dropped his pocket knife on the floor.
He turned on his heels, with a stern apathetic look. And headed out his room. Losing all senses of emotion.
...
Aasim ran out the top of the belltower frantically. The moon being the only source of light.
"Louis!" He gasped as his eyes went wide.
Louis stood on the other side of the railing, looking down at the large drop. Clinging onto the metal. The tears still flowing. But no emotion on his cold face.
...
"GET BACK HERE YOU MOTHER FUCKER" Louis screamed as he ran after the black van that drove away from the school gates.
He fell down on his knees in defeat.
"Please no..." He sobbed.
...
The gates opened, revealing a young petite woman. Her ginger curls tied up in a bun. Louis, Gabe, Aasim, and Ruby stood on the other side. Weapons in hand in case things were to go sideways.
"I can't fucking handle all these new people coming into our lives. First a baby, then your sister. Now this girl? We may as well form a band or some shit." Gabe joked slightly with a light-hearted sigh, nudging Louis's arm slightly with his elbow. Louis chuckled lightly, and then looked back at the woman in suspicion
"So... what's your name," asked Louis as he took a step forward.
"My name is Bonnie."
