"You're…pregnant?" I asked, in complete disbelief.
"yeah." She stated, looking down at her shoes. I was silent, staring off into oblivion.
"I can't-." I began.
"I can't take it any longer." She said, "I'm just fucking with you." She replied. My heart skipped a beat; she really had me going there,
"I was about to cry." I said, smiling. She burst out laughing after that. She walked over and sat down on my lap,
"Sorry about that love." She said, kissing my forehead. There was a knock on the door,
"Hey Kyle, it's time to leave bro!" it was Lenny. I smiled as we packed our bags and exited the hotel room, my arm slung over Mindi's shoulder. She was smiling as we walked down the hallway.
The next day, we walked into school, we were totally perfect together. I always thought the shit we feel only existed in fairytales, but this is real and we knew it. We sat at lunch together, we studied together, and we got coffee together. It was something rarely seen by adults.
"You ever think about leaving?" I ask.
"What?" Mindi responds, confused.
"I'm not implying that we should, but do you ever think about just leaving here?" I repeat.
"I used to, all the time actually. But the people need me here." She replies, "They need you." She added.
"I know they do, but if I keep killing, how can I know I can stop?" I ask, serious.
"You don't, you trust in me." She said, taking my hand in both of hers.
"The dreams-." I began,
"I'll be sleeping beside you." She interrupts. I lean over and kiss her lips, the knot in my chest untying with the taste of peppermint from her lips.
Mindi and I, Hit Girl and Bloody Hood, we stand on top of the Warehouse where we first began our partnership, people stop every now and again and point to us, take a picture or two. Cheering as we run by and all. It's a good feeling, being loved like that, but Mindi is all I need now to sustain my life. Now I know that I don't need to be Bloody Hood, but that I choose to be him, not for myself, but for the people of New York, and that is an even better feeling, and ever since, I haven't had a single dream. Is there more to this? Might be, guess you'll have to wait and find out eh? See ya next issue bitches!-Kyle AKA Bloody Hood.
