BRUISED [ twd gif series ] ✓

carl,

carl when he builds up the courage to show you his eye, or the space where it had once been. his hands shake as he takes off the bandage, tilting his head forward so that his hair falls in front of his eyes. he doesn't look up. he had froze up because he was afraid that you would find it disgusting, despite the fact that you were one of his friends and had been for a very long time. you place your hand upon his, stating that he didn't have to do it. but he shakes his head, and he looks up at you as your brows furrow in sadness, something like that should never have happened to someone like him. he inhales deeply, as you send him a small smile.

" i feel like a monster with it. "
