My Rule

Chapter 14

I woke up to a strong arm wrapped around me and looked over to the face of my Angel. He smiled which made me smile back and he kissed my nose. "Come on babe, breakfast is gonna be ready." He purred in my ear. I squirmed and then got out I'd bed doing my hair putting it in pig tail braids.

We walked down to breakfast and ate with everyone. Maggie squeezed my hand and smiled at me. I smiled back and ate the rest of my toast.

I walked into my cell and put on my green long sleeve with my green jeans and converse. I slipped my black vest on I walked outside.

I loaded up my gun and walked outside and walked up to the towers and stayed up there shooting the distant walkers. I shot them never missing one. I never usually missed one. When I was little my older cousin Justin always took me to the shooting range downtown. He was captain of his rifle team in his grade. He was my best friend, and he loved me. I knew he was out there somewhere. He was too smart and too strong to die. I'm sure he was okay. I just want to see him one more time.

After a while I heard Carol come up and she and I talked for a bit. She told me about her daughter Sophia and how she died. "You two would've been best friends, I'm sure." She told me. "I'm sure she was perfect." I said. She looked at me and she smiled. "You remind me a little but about her. Beauty-wise." I smiled and thanked her. "You remind me of my mom a little too." I told her how she risked her life trying to save me and died because of it.

I wiped my tears and she comforted me. "You're like a daughter to me Lilly." She said. That made my heart warm. "You're like a mother to me, Carol." She smiled and said, "Well don't call me by my first name then." We laughed and hugged each other and then went inside.

I walked into my cell and grabbed my journal.
'These past 2 months have been the best of my life. I was reunited with my sister, met the love of my life, met a while new group that I could trust and have fun with, and am now able to call my favorite adults mom and dad. Even though our situation is really bad, I'm thankful for the experiences I have made over the years. And I hope to make many more.

I heard someone walking past and it was my baby. "Hey babe" he said. I smiled and kissed him. He rubbed my back and gently pushed me into the wall. I love these moments. He then pulled away and smiled at me holding my cheek. "You're my favorite." He said.

I laughed and we went to go eat dinner. But we took it outside and had dinner together. We just looked at the stars and talked. "That one looks like a sailboat." I said. "And that one looks like a heart." He said smiling. Then we pointed out a Little Dipper! I always wanted to see one of those! I laughed and cuddled into Carl's chest.

He wrapped his arms around me and brought me into our cell. I changed into my pajamas and took my hair out of my braids. I looked in the mirror and frowned.

"My hair is really long." I said. It almost went down to my butt. Carl came up behind me and reassured me. "Your hair is perfect. Now lets get to sleep." I smiled and got under the covers with him. I hummed a song so we could sleep soundly. And we did.
