Once again, no suggestions. Oh well. Time for the next one! And thanks, Neonimbus, for the review. As always, all times of feedback, aside from flames, are accepted.
Alan yawned as he turned off the light. It was a long day at school, and he was ready to hit the hay. "Just get some sleep...some shuteye...sounds good." Alan muttered as he flopped onto the bed and fell asleep.
Alan woke up with a smile as he looked out the window. "Good morning, world!" Alan said with a big smile before heading downstairs. "Good morning, mom. Good morning, dad!" Alan cheerfully said, but his parents seemed...surprised.
"Alan? You're okay now?" Dexter questioned. "Yeah, why?" Alan asked. "...You know why." Jessica told him. "No. No I don't." Alan said to his parents in confusion. Otherwise, the day went by with him eating breakfast and eventually leaving the house for a new day of school.
"Why did he act like that?" Jessica asked Dexter. "I don't know. He might be in denial now..." Dexter guessed. Either way, they were concerned for their son's wellbeing.
Getting on the school bus, Alan's first thing to do was sit next to Carmen. "Not here, not here...where is she?" Alan questioned after not finding her. "Alan? What's wrong?" a certain voice came into play. Turning around, it was the one and only Gumball Watterson.
"Oh, I'm wondering where Carmen is. Have you seen her?" Alan asked, but got a sad look from Gumball. "You know why, Alan...she moved away a month ago." Alan went stiff.
Moved away.
Moved away.
Moved. Away.
Carmen was Gone.
"You're joking, right?" Alan asked with a slight bit of hope, but Gumball unintentionally sent it to the floor, shattering upon impact. "Alan, we know you miss her so much, but you can't start being in denial. Things will get worst." Gumball told him.
Alan didn't say a word. He simply slumped onto a empty seat. "Poor guy..." Gumball muttered as he sat down again.
Class started as everyone took their seats, but looked at Alan with remorse when he slumped into his chair. "Carmen's gone...she's gone..." Alan muttered. His mind began to flash images of them having fun and all their kiss attempts gone wrong, but was alerted back into reality from a finger snap.
"Eh?" Alan looked at Miss Simian. "Balloon, I know you're sad that the cactus is gone, but you need to pay attention to class. She wouldn't want to find out she was dating a now-deadbeat, right?" Miss Simian lectured, but you can tell even she felt bad for him.
"Um, okay...thanks...I guess..." Alan said as Miss Simian went back to the topic at hand. "So, back to the respiratory system..." Alan however, couldn't keep Carmen out of his mind.
School soon came to a close, and everyone ran out, ready for another weekend. However, Alan was still in deep thought. "She's not here. At times, she was why I was more happy than before..." He muttered as he crossed the street.
He stopped there and then. "I miss her...but I hope she'll come back." He was then alerted from honking. Turning around, he saw a truck driving his way. Just when it was about to hit him...
"WAH!"
Alan shot out of bed. He looked around. He was dreaming, he was fine! "Phew...close one. Wait...what if Carmen did leave?!" He rushed downstairs and left the house without greeting his parents. He entered the school bus searched frantically.
"Carmen? Carmen, where are you?!" Alan yelled. "Over here." Alan turned to see Carmen sitting by her lonesome. Alan smiled. "Carmen!"
He jumped towards his whilst hugging her. "I'm so glad you are still here!" He exclaimed. "What's wrong?" Carmen questioned. "I had a weird dream where you moved out, and I became depressed, then almost got hit by a truck." Alan explained. "Oh, don't worry." Carmen gave him a kiss.
"I'll never leave Elmore."
Another happy ending. If you have any suggestions for the next one, lay them on me!
