The Walsh's (UNDER EDITING)

Chapter 8

It grew darker and darker as we approached the CDC. I looked at Shane with a worried look as I pulled Jason closer to my chest. Darkness equals walkers, that's never a good sign. "Shane, it's getting dark." I said, "I know darlin' but we just gotta pray." he replied placing his free hand on my thigh. We pulled up to the CDC, Shane jumped out and grabbed his shotgun before taking Jason into his free arm and letting me get out the truck. I took Jason from him and we followed the others, Shane kept me close to his back incase of any dangers. "No one's here." stated Cody pulling Ryder on to his hip, "no something has to be here." said Rick. "Rick, it's dark. We need to go, there is nothing here." I said as Jason hid his face in the crook of my neck. Rick wouldn't take no for an answer,  he began banging on the shutters and claiming he saw the camera move. "Rick! Come on brother, think about your sister. That's my wife and then there's ma child. I need them alive man." Shane said trying to pull Rick back. I felt a strong arm wrap around my waist and pull me towards the vehicles. I turned round to see Daryl, "your brother's a little off his rocker Kit-Kat." he said and I nodded.

Suddenly the shutters opened and blinding white light shone at us. Daryl shielded me and Jason as we stood in aw of the light. Daryl gently grabbed my wrist and pulled me inside the CDC. Shane ran over to me, pulled my head into his shoulder and nodded his thanks to Daryl. "Hello! Anyone here?" Rick shouted, "everyone keep close." said Shane keeping my head in his shoulder. A gun cocking made me jump and Shane pulled me closer. "What do you want?" asked a man with a rifle in his hand. "A chance." said Rick, the man kept his gun raised causing Shane to raise his own gun. I pulled my head up, "anyone infected?" the man asked. I thought about Jim and Amy and everyone else we'd lost along the way, a tear ran down my cheek which made Jason kiss my cheek. "Thanks baby." I whispered. "We had a man but he didn't make it." Rick explained. "Everyone submits a blood test, that's the fee of admission." said the man and Rick agreed even though he knew of his sister's fear of needles. "If you've got bags bring them in now becauee once this door closes, it doesn't open." the man said. The men grabbed our bags and ran back in. Shane grabbed my hand and we followed Rick and the scientist type man. I had to have Shane hold my hand during the blood test, I could bare the thought of a sharp object in my arm.

After that we were allowed to eat, Shane looked unimpressed but his son made him smile at least. I clutched his arm and leaned against his shoulder. He would occasionally kiss the top of my head and I'd kiss him back. Jason sat on Shane's knee and everytime he smiled, me and Shae smiled at each other. It was as if we were trying to say "what a beautiful boy we made." everytime. Of course, wine started being passed around and I declined. Rick had become a little tipsy and allowed Carl to try some. His reaction was as excepted and we all laughed except Shane, who causally sipped his wine whilst smiling at Jason. "Maybe you should stick to soda there bud." he said handing Jason a cup of soda. I kissed Shane's cheek, he smiled but continued sipping his wine. "What happened here doc?" Shane asked the man we now knew was called Edward Jenner. Everyone went silent and I nudged Shane in the shoulder. "We're celebrating Shane, this can wait." said Rick, "no Rick, we came looking for answers and well we found him. One man. Why?" Shane asked. He made a good point and I decided to stand by my husband.

"Yeah Shane's right, what happened here?" I asked. Shane looked shocked but smiled at me. "When everything started most people went home to be with their families. Those who stayed, well it became too muh and they opted out if you like. There was a rash of suicides. I stayed because I thought there was a way out of this." Jenner explained. Everyone sighed, Glenn turned to Shane with a bottle of wine in his hands. "Your such a buzz kill man." he said, "back off." I snapped . After eating, Jenner led us to where we would be staying and of course Shane kept a firm grip on my hand and Jason's. "The living quarters were shut down about a month ago but the couches are comfotable and there are cots in storage. There's a wreck room down the hall you kids might like just down plug in any of the video games or anything that draws power. That goes for showers too. Go easy on the hot water." Jenner explained walking off. Glenn turned round and smiled. "Did he just say hot water?" he asked in disbelief, "that's what the man said." said T-Dog. Everyone scattered to find a room big enough to fit who ever they were bunking with. I followed Shane to a small room at the hall, "you up for a shower Kat?" he asked and I laughed. "Shane, I'm flithy. Of course I'm up for a shower." I said. Carol took the kids into a separate shower room to clean off whilst the adults stepped into heaven.

I stepped under the warm water and let it run over my hair and shoulders. Shane slid the door open and side stepped in. He wrapped his arms around my waist and began leaving a trail of feather like kisses on the back on my neck. I shivered and turned around to his lips slamming against mine. I ran my hands through his damp black hair as his huge chocolate orbs met my baby blue ones. I pulled back to catch my breath, "what's wrong Kit-Kat?" Shane asked pressing me against the wall. "Nothing, just we have done this in a while." I replied as he kissed up my stomach and chest. "Come on, I'm sure we can handle it." Shane said, he continued kissing up my neck and soon came back to my lips. After a steady make out session that almost got serious, Shane and I dried off and went to get our son. As we walked into the kids showers, I saw Hunter sitting with Jason on his knees, laying on his chest and sucking his thumb. "Aw Hunter, thank you." I whispered as Shane took Jason into his arms. I kissed Hunter's head, "thank you sweetie." I said and he smiled. "Kat, can I talk to you later? In the wreck room?" Hunter asked and I nodded. "Of course Hunter, you can always talk to me." I said as Daryl entered the room. "C'mon Hunter, yer uncle Cody wants to try get Ryder down early." Daryl said as Hunter stood up to follow his father.

I thought I was looking at twins, they really looked so much a like. "Is that so you and him can go drink?" I asked, Daryl glared at me but it soon turned into a smile. "You know us Kat." he replied. "Please don't get drunk." I said but he just laughed leading Hunter out the shower room and to their room. I caught up with Shane, I got dressed into a huge T-shirt and some leggings. "Why don't I get a book for you and Daddy to read?" I suggested kissing Shane's cheek and Jason nodded. I walked down to the wreck room, Lori, Carol, Carl and Sophia were chilling in there. "Hey there Kat." said Lori looking up from her book, "hey, any good kids books?" I asked and she tossed me one. "Thanks hun, I'll be back in a minute." I said running back down the hall to my room. "Here, Lori gave it to me. I'll be back in a few." I said and Shane smiled. "Babe, stop panicking. We're safe now." Shane said before turning to face Jason with the book. I wanted to believe him but something about Jenner kept changing my opinion. I walked into the wreck room and spotted Hunter hidig out by the video games.

"Hey there kiddo."

"Hi mom."

"I haven't heard you call me that for a long time."

"Yeah well, Shane and Rick don't know, so that would be awkward."

"Yeah, sure would."

"Mom, I wanted to talk to you because I wanted to ask you something."

"What is it baby?"

"Do you love me and Ryder as much as you love Jason?"

I was stunned by Hunter's questioned, I know I wasn't winning mother of the year but I was trying.

"Hunter Dixon, did someone tell you I didn't love you?"

I didn't think Daryl or Cody would tell them something like that but I had to make sure.

"Uncle Merle said that you ditched us with dad and uncle Cody because you don't care or love us. You just want Shane and you never cared about dad."

I nearly fainted, I know Merle could possibly be dead but the asshole told my first born child that I didn't love him. I hugged Hunter as he cried into my shoulder. At that moment Cody walked in and took Hunter from me. "He ain't lying, Merle told him all that shit after you left Ryder with us. Hunter never believed it because you always came back." Cody said leading Hunter back to their room. I felt a huge blow to my heart, if I ever get my hands on Merle Dixon again, I'll strangle him. I walked back to my room and collapsed on the bed next to Shane. He could tell something wasn't right with me, so he flipped me on top of him.

"Walsh, what are you doing?"

"Giving you a good time Kit-Kat."

He rolled over so he was on top of me.

"What if we wake up Jason?"

"Nah, he'll sleep. Trust me baby."

Shane began attacking my neck and thrusting. A moaned escaped my lips before he began going faster and harder. "Shane." I groaned gripping his shoulder as our bodies collided with each other. I rolled on to my stomach and Shane jumped behind me and did the same. I gripped the blankets as Shane got to work. "You feeling better Kit-Kat?" he asked as he thrusted. "Fuck yeah Shane." I said.

Soon we gave up and collapsed beside each other. Both of us breathing heavily and sweating. I cuddled up next to Shane as he drapped his muscular arm over my shoulders. "I love you Shane." I mumbled into his chest. "I love you too Kat." he replied before we before drifted off...
