Carl's PoV

“Hah, fall in love? You are a murderous killer! How can a killer, such as yourself, fall in love? Hell, who would even fall in love with a monster such as yourself?” I would flinch quite a bit, that had stung deep into my core... I knew I had a slim chance of love but.. Hearing from her had stung way worse.

"I… I understand Juli." With that I left her a trail out of here and disappeared from her sight... I sighed as I walked over to the spot to meet up with Jeff and Toby. When I arrived there, I saw Jeff with Kasitey, if I could show how pissed I was I would.

“Jeffery Woods, what in the hell were you thinking?! Bringing Kasitey here!?”

“What boss? It isn’t entirely against her will y’know.”

“A-As much as I hate to say it... Jeff isn’t wrong, he made sure I was fully ok and willing to do it... Actually, would you have let me live if I had said no?” I roughly sighed and shook it off. This night has been a long one, I just wanted to get home and sleep all of this off.

~One Week Later~

    I would be in my office, wishing the last of my homework for the day. I had emailed my teachers about doing my work online. Of course I would have to turn them in myself sometimes, projects more so. I would lean back in my chair, I kept thinking about Juli… I wondered how she was doing, if she was ok. I know the last we spoke was a week ago, but then again, I think she made it perfectly clear that she wanted nothing to do with a killer... 

‘I can’t return to the real world... Not while Juli knows who I am... After what had happened, I’m sure she wouldn’t appreciate a killer like me still remaining in her school..’ If I had eyes right about now, I’m sure they would be tearing up due to all the regret and sadness I carry within me.

    What felt like days passed by, I would hear someone running up the stairs. I would sigh, either Jeff or EJ coming to me with a problem or complaining about Ben. When I see the door slam open, I see Toby instead. I found it a little bit odd, he usually doesn’t come to me unless it's work related.

“S-Sir! She’s h-h-here!” I would be a bit confused, I wondered who he had meant. I realized he had said ‘she’ I began to wonder if Juli was actually here. I wanted to make sure I had the right person.

“Who is here Tobias?” I would see him giving me a look that screams “are you fucking serious right now?”. 

“Juli sir.” He would tick vigorously, somehow I forget about his ticks sometimes. I would sigh heavily, I wondered why she was here. She should be out there enjoying her normal life out there.

“Bring her in here Tobias, just be gentle with her alright?” He would nod and head out. I would have my head in my hands, I was confused with this girl. One minute, she was saying how monsters could never love and be loved and now she's here... Why are women, teenage girls more so, are so damn confusing?

 After a while, I would see Toby bring her in. She had looked so frightened and terrified. I looked at Toby, seeing if he had done anything to scare her.

"Sorry… Sorry… Sorry sir, she made it difficult…" I would sigh and wave him off. I would look back at Juli, she was in the process of calming herself down. I let her take the time in doing so… I knew we had a lot to talk about…
