Stay With Me *Walking Dead Fan Fiction*

Chapter 2

*Carl's POV*

I can't believe that Rachel is here, I've missed her so much. Now I get to protect her.

So we're walking down to her cell for bed, and when we get to her cell, I turn to face her and say, "I've missed you so much." hoping that she would say it back, and maybe even kiss me.

"I've missed you so much, too." she says, fulfilling half of my wish.

And then she kisses my cheek.

As I'm walking back to my cell, I can't stop blushing. I can't believe she actually did that. Does she like me as much as I like her? Does she even have feelings for me? Will I ask her to be my girlfriend?

With those questions in my head, I fall into a deep sleep, dreaming of her lips touching mine.

*The Next Morning*

I slowly sit up and rub my eyes. I walk to the living room and smile once I see Rachel's beautiful face smiling back at me.

I hug her and say, "Good morning." She smiles back and says, "Good morning, Carl." I love the way she says my name.

After everybody eats, me and Rachel decide to hang out in my cell.

"So you've been alone all of this time?" I ask her. Her head drops, and she says, "I had to kill everyone in my family, except for my Aunt Andrea."

"Andrea is your aunt?!" I say, shocked. She looks at me and nods slowly. I realize the sadness in her eyes and I pull her into a tight hug and say, "I'm so sorry, Rachel." She sobs quietly into my shirt.

I take my hat off and put it on her head. I lift her chin to look at me, "You look cute in my dad's hat." She blushes and looks into my eyes.

I slowly lean in to kiss her. Our lips collide. Her lips are soft and I wrap my arm around her waist and pull her closer to me. I love it, I love all of it. I really think I love-

"Hey, lovebirds! Time for dinner!" Daryl yells from the living room, forcing us to break apart.

She smiles and looks down. "C'mon Rach, let's go eat." I say, remembering that used to be her nickname. She stands up to walk out and I grab her hand.

We all eat in silence, and the only thing I can think about the whole time was how much I hope that kiss can happen all the time.
