*so sorry for the wait guys! Anyway I hope you all enjoy the chapter, don't forget to vote and comment!*

I didn't even know that it was possible to feel this empty. Another person just ripped away from me. I didn't understand what I could've done to feel all this pain.

Daryl is all I have left. He is probably the reason why I'm staying alive right now. If he died what would my purpose even be for living? No more family, friends or pretty much anyone who cares about me.

Morgan was the one person who understood me. Probably the fact that we were going through the same things at home. She was also that friend that you can rant to and she would just sit there and listen to you. I couldn't thank her enough.

Daryl came in and told me that they were doing a funeral for everyone we lost. I just starred at the wall in front of me. I haven't spoken since Morgan. That was 18 hours ago. I haven't moved, or eaten anything. People would come in and check on me. Mostly Daryl. They haven't been coming in as frequently now because I guess they understood that I needed to morn.

Just then Daryl came in.

"We are going to start the funeral now"

I looked over to him

"I'm not coming" I said emotionless

He came over and sat next to me

"I'm worried about you" he said quietly

"Don't be"

He stood up about to walk out of the RV and then I said

"There is only so much loss a person could take" he then looked back and gave a sympathetic smile and exited the RV

~several hours later~

It was staring to get late and I still haven't moved. No one has came to check on me since Daryl. I was kinda hoping carl was going to come see me. Should I go out and look for him? No he's probably sleeping. Maybe I'll check in the morning.

~the morning~

I woke up to someone's voice. My hand was also touching someone.

"I'm so sorry Courtney, you don't deserve all this. I care about you. I've also been thinking and I think I love you. I know it's crazy because we barely even talk but I hate to see you hurting"

I then realized that this was carl. Should I say something back or pretend like I'm still sleeping. This might be my only chance though.

"I care about you to" I whispered

I heard him tense up, u probably scared him. I don't think he was expecting me to be awake.

"I-um wasn't expecting you to hear that" he said quietly

I just smiled and sat up.

"So uh what does this make us?" Carl questioned

"What do you want us to be?"

"I um uh not sure"

"Aw is little grimes nervous"

He just blushed

"Let's just take things slow" I said then pecked his lips before turning over and going back to sleep.
