Small World ( A Carl Grimes fanfic)

Chapter 21

~Normal P.O.V~

I woke up and groaned. As I tried to roll over, I didn't feel any pain. Confused, I sat up and took off the thin blanket covering my lower half. My leg was still wrapped in gauze, but no blood was leaking through. I stood up to confirm my theory, and there was only a slight ache in my leg. I walked out of my cell, still half asleep and confused, and entered the main room. When i entered, all heads turned towards me. The first to react was Dad, jumping out of his seat and running towards me, giving me a bear hug.

I laughed lightly and wrapped my arms around him. He pulled away and he was grinning like an idiot."What?" I asked curious."You were out for 5 days, Can't I be excited that you're up?" he retorted, his smile only growing wider. I gasped and looked towards everyone else in the room. There was Glenn, Hershel, Maggie, a whole bunch of people I didn't recognize, and Beth with a baby? I frowned in confusion at the baby, it was really cute. Dad saw my expression and sighed."It's Rick's, but Lori died in childbirth" he explained, an un-readable expression on his face.

I gasped again and felt tears well up in my eyes. I was really close to Lori, she was like a second mother to me. I froze when I remembered what happened before I fell unconscious. Carl and Hailee, hand in hand, smiling and kissing each other without a care in the world. Carl was a brother now.. not that I care about him anymore, he moved on, so should I...

Dad leaned towards me and whispered."You know, right after you blacked out, Carl broke up with Hailee, she went crazy and called you a whole bunch of shit names.." he sighed afterwards, putting a hand on my shoulder and squeezing lightly, not wanting to make me stress out from all this new information. I snapped out of my thoughts when the door opened. I turned towards it, and immediately frowned. It was Rick. I wasn't frowning at him, I was frowning at the shorter, younger person behind him, Carl.

I turned around and started walking to my cell when I heard my name get called."(y/n)!" I froze, and hesitantly turned back around. Carl was running towards me and when he got close enough, he hugged me, and didn't let go."Carl,let go" I spoke calmly and quietly. He pulled away from me and frowned."I'm just really happy you're awake..." He trailed off, looking towards the ground. Dad saw that he was slightly embarrassed and laughed."He visited you more then I did! And I went everyday!" He exclaimed, making a few other people chuckle.

I saw Carl's blush deepen in colour, and I laughed along with everyone else. I couldn't help it, I still like Carl. He's just so..amazing. Just looking at his flustered state, I couldn't help the slight blush that made it's way upon my cheeks.
