Clementine's P.O.V
I have a feeling something happened in there. Nothing goes right when a walker shows up like that. I'll find out sooner or later. I went back to the family and told them to go through the back. "Thank you." Patricia said. I smiled. "Are you sure about this?" Christa asked me. "We can start something here, Christa. Just like Carver did." I replied. "I don't know." Christa muttered. I opened the door and let them in. The first thing Randy reacted to was Carvers corpse. We'll clean that up.

"Who the fuck are they?" Jake said entering the room with Abigail. "We're friends. The girl let us in." Randy said glancing at me. Jake glared at me with anger. "Jake, I know you don't trust strangers right away. But we can start something here." I said with a friendly smile, hoping to calm Jake down. "Whatever." Jake said walking away. "He's had it pretty hard." Christa said. Randy just looked at her and took a look around.

Abigail's P.O.V
I feel like shit lying to Clementine. But it's what Jake wants me to do. Jake said he'll tell her when the time comes. "So how'd you find this place?" Carl asked at dinner. Randy took a sip of his water and spoke. "We walked for miles. We came from Atlanta." "Atlanta huh? That's quite a ways." Kendra said. "Yeah, my boy saw things no kid should've seen." "I bet." Carl said. I looked at Gill with a sad expression. "I'm gonna make sure there's no hunter coming." Jake said leaving the table. "Is everything alright hon?" Kendra asked. "Yeah I'm fine." "Jake wait!" Clem said running after Jake. "Oh shit." I muttered leaving the table. "Abigail?" Kendra asked me. "I'll be right back." I said before taking off.

"Look sis, I'm fine. Stop worryin'." "I do worry. I don't want you getting yourself killed." "Jake?" I said entering the room. "What are you two hiding from me?" Clem said. "Nothin' Clem go eat!" Jake said. "Please listen to him Clem." "You're my best friend. You're my brother. Tell me. Now!" Clementine ordered putting her hands on her hips. Jake sighed and nodded toward me. "Clementine. Jake was bitten a few hours ago. By that walker."

Clementine's P.O.V
I looked at Jake and Abigail in shock. "Why didn't you tell me Jake?" "I didn't want to freak you out. I was gonna tell you when the time came." "That's the same thing Lee did." A tear fell from my face. "I'm sorry sis, this wasn't supposed to happen again." I ignored Jake and wrapped my arms around him and cried. "I can't lose you again." I whimpered.

"What do you want me to tell my sister, Jake?" "I'll tell her Ab, you don't need that on your hands." She nodded and hugged him to. Their relationship strengthened since he defended her from that man. "What's goin' on?" Kendra asked entering the room. Jake sighed and broke the news. "I gotta tell you somethin' Ken."
