Into Darkness
Chapter 14
Oh god.
"Holy f*ck this is embarrassing" I wanted to hide under my blanket and never come back out.
"Hey, calm down. It's nothing to be embarrassed about, everyone pees and poops" He said, laughing slightly and this made me blush even more.
"Oh f*ck me" I groaned and he laughed.
"I'd love to, but I'm pretty sure the idiot doctor wants you to rest" He smirked and I hit the back of his head with my palm, making him laugh even harder.
"That was pathetic" He mocked me and I stuck my tongue out.
"However, my leg feels pretty okay. It doesn't hurt as long as no one touches it or I move it" I ever so smoothly changed the subject, the consequence being Lou rolling his eyes.
"Who's Nora?" I then asked hesitantly, I didn't want to upset him.
"She was my little sister"
I froze at the words were and looked down at my hands.
"I'm sorry" I quietly mumbled and he shook his head.
"Wait, how do you even know of her?" He asked, scrunching his face.
"Err... You were kinda screaming a few nights ago and I ran into your room... Well tried at least, and you were moving and sweating. I tried to wake you up and you eventually calmed down... Then you said something about how I reminded you of her... Nora" I whispered the last part, it felt to personal to say out loud.
"Oh" Was all he said, he looked down at my hands and I gulped.
"She was only 6 years old" He choked out and I felt my heart brake.
"You don't have to-" I started but he cut me off.
"No, I want to tell you. You've been so honest about your family and I need to talk about this" His voice broke at the end and I grabbed his hand.
"It's been killing me" He whispered and I gave him a sad smile.
"I was sitting in the kitchen, cooking pasta carbonara, Nora's favorite food, I was on holiday from College and I hadn't been home for over a month... My parents were in the garden, trimming the grass and watering flowers... And then I heard screaming. I immediately ran to the window and looked out, that's when I saw a Zombie for the first time. I freaked and grabbed a knife out of the cabinet. I grabbed Nora's hand and ran out of the house, to see if my parents were alright" He took a deep breath and I gulped.
"They weren't" I could see him, trying to hold his tears back and I squeezed his hand.
"There were more Zombies, at least 10. And it only kept coming more and more... Nora cried when she saw the zombies eating my parents organs and I wanted to, but I had to stay strong for Nora. She was holding my hand so tight, and we started to run away, she got up on my back and we ran with everyone else, towards the forest... But then someone, a zombie, grabbed her. And pulled her off me. I tried to-" He stopped, his eyes were filled with tears and he was sobbing and so was I.
I didn't know Lou that well, but he seemed like a pretty closed off person and I felt honored that he wanted to open up to me.
"I tried to save her, but... The zombie, he snapped her neck" He had stopped sobbing and was only looking at me with pleading eyes. I was full on crying though.
"He snapped a six year olds neck, she had barely seen the world. She was too young, too- too pure and innocent"
I kept quiet, not knowing what to say.
'I'm sorry' wasn't enough.
"It's okay to be sad, it's okay to cry. The only thing that isn't okay... Is to give up. You have to believe that life is still worth living, because if you don't. You'll never be able to move on and live a happy life" We were looking each other and I realized that he was leaning in.
While I was in a diaper.
