Life or Love (Very Old)

Lucinda and Amanda

⚠️authors note⚠️
I forgot to mention this but during the time in the prison, clem and duck were extremely close and when he died, clem was sad everyday and she was just heartbroken (like Lees death)

(Clem's POV)
"Lee?" I asked.

"Ya, he was one of my brothers, why?" The lady replied.

"He.. He.." I sputtered.

"I was eight, and I was all alone in my treehouse when he found me, we met up with other survivors and tried to survive, but that didn't work."

"Someone kidnapped me and he got bit on the way trying to save me."

The woman looked down at the ground with a sad face.

"He saved me, he's the reason I keep my hair short" I finished.

" he was a good man" she said.

"I'm Clementine by the way" I said.

"I'm carl, were in a group together" carl said.

"We also have two babies with us, there in steves office" I managed to choke out.

"Don't talk, it'll only make your throat worse" carl said.

"Well I'm Lucinda, and my daughter over there is Amanda" lucinda said and looked at the girl sitting in the lawn chair.

(Carl's POV)

Clem was just about ready to doze off.

"It's okay" I whispered to clem as a sat down next to her beside the bed.

"As long as we're together, your safe and sound"

One of her eyes opened slightly but then closed again.

"Even the best fall down sometimes" I said and kissed her cheek.

"Come morning light, you and I'll be safe... And... Sound." I quietly sang.

I backed away and sat down in a lawn chair next to Amanda.

*the next morning*

I wake up and see Clem's still asleep.

Everyone else who's stuck in the prison they call a school is awake.

The guards and Steve round us up and are about to tell us our jobs for the day when one of the guards say "you suck" to Amanda.

I was just about to stick up for her but she said "and you swallow".

All the other guards said "ooooh".

But that one specific guard couldn't handle it and he slapped Amanda hard across the cheek.

She fell to the ground and her cheek was really red and started bleeding a little.

I noticed something behind the guard that hit Amanda and seen clem with a knife.

"How did she get a knife?" I thought inside of my head.

Before anyone could do anything she dug the knife into that guards neck.

All the guards pointed there guns at clem.

"No, Clem run!!" I yelled.

She started to run but Steve tripped her, took her foot, and dragged her into the middle of the room so everyone could see her.

"Don't you dare touch her!" I yelled.

Steve hit her and I immediately ran up and tackled Steve.

I pulled his ear and his hair to get him away, but the guards took me arms and pulled me away.

Every time he hit her I cringed.

Amanda got up and stood in front of clem.

"Stop it father!!!" She yelled.

"Father?!?!" I screamed at her.
