Chapter 47

Glenn's P.O.V~

I'm back to sitting in front of Ruby's bed, but this time I've got Daisy in my arms asleep and Max outside playing with Mika.

"Hey Ruby." I whisper in hopes she can hear me.

"Do you want to see Daisy? I'm sure you would love her. She looks like you, but she is pale like me, she has my eyes too. Apparently if you had my eyes you'd still look beautiful. Her hair is so long. And she's quiet, very quiet. Like a little mouse. She can't do anything yet, it'll be ages till she can even hold her own head up!" I tell her before I put Daisy down in her arm.

"See, now you get to hold her as well." I whisper as I watch them together.

"Um excuse me Glenn." Someone calls from behind me.

"Yeah?" I say turning around to see Beth.

"Have you seen Daddy? Can't find him anywhere?" She inquires worriedly.

"He went out for herbs about an hour and a half ago, why?" I reply quietly so as not to wake the baby.

"He hasn't come back, and we're all getting worried..." She says anxiously.

"I'm sure you'll find him soon, did he have someone with him?"

"Yeah he had Michonne with him, but nobody can find her either!" She tells me.

"Well I have no idea where either of them are but i'm sure they'll be around." I comfort her.

"Okay, let me know if you need help with the baby." She says as she leaves to look for her father.

I pick Daisy back up and hold her against my shoulder, then I walk out into the hallway to see if anyone knows where Hershel and Michonne are.

I pace the hall to see where Daryl is, since he'll probably know when I notice a gathering of people heading outside.

I follow behind the group to see Rick at the fence, standing in front of a convey of vehicles, one of which being a tank.

In front of the vehicles is the Governor, with Hershel and Michonne.

I spot Max standing nervously at the fence.

"Max!" I yell quietly, not loud enough to cause a disruption.

He turns his little red head towards me and I see the look of true anger in his eyes.

I motion for him to come towards me and he complies, taking slow steps so as not to attract attention.

He reaches me and I tuck Daisy into his arms.

"Take her to Ruby and put her in her crib on the top bunk." I say passing him my key to the door.

"Lock them in and put one key inside the room hidden next to the door and you keep the other one." I instruct.

"I'll grab your gun okay?" He says before taking off to the cell.

As I look back the Governor unsheathes Michonne's katana and holds it against Hershel's neck.

I can't make out what Rick's saying but his tone of voice sounds pained.

They just keep talking back and forth and I can't hear either of them for the rumble of the vehicles and the murmurs of the group.

Suddenly an idea hits me.

I run back inti the prison and almost collide with Max as he runs out.

Without asking a thing he hands me my gun and heads back outside armed with an MK 47.
