My life in the apocalypse

Chapter 17

*roxie's p.o.v.*

We have been walking in the woods for awhile. A girl named Tara is holding Judith. I met her a couple hours ago along with Rosita, Abraham, and Eugene who says he knows a cure for all this but I highly doubt it.

Me and Carl are talking about life before the apocalypse. "I never met my mom." I say. "That sucks. I had to kill my mom. I know you know that story but-" "It's ok. You don't have to say it again. Do you ever wish it was like before?" "Sometimes." "What do you mean sometimes?" "I mean that if it wasn't like this then I wouldn't have met you and that is a life I don't want to live in." I smile and look down at my feet. I grab his hand and kiss his cheek.

"You missed." He says and I laugh. I kiss his lips and ask, "Is that better?" "Much." I chuckle and look ahead.

We hear screaming and stop walking. Carl walks up to his dad and says,"Come on. We have to go help." Rick sighs and starts running towards the sound. We all start running behind him and we end up by a huge rock with walkers around it. There is a guy on top of it with a suit on screaming. This dude is an idiot.

I sigh and shoot one of the walkers with my crossbow. The rest of the group takes them out and I go to get my arrow. The guy comes off the rock and pukes. "Dude, man up." I say and laugh. I see dad looking at me and he chuckles.

"I have a church. If you would like to come. My name is father Gabriel." He says. I look at Rick and he nods. We start going to the church. When we get there Rick goes inside to make sure it is not a trap.

"Come on in." He said. We all walked in and looked around. "Hey Rick?" I said. "Yeah?" "We need food. Or at least we need to get food for Judith." "I know."

"Hey, Gabriel, where is the closest place we can get food?" I heard Rick ask. After that I kinda zoned out. I started getting light headed and I sat down. "Babe, are you ok?" Carl asked. "I feel light headed." I said. "You look really pale. Someone hurry and get Roxie water!" My eyes started getting really heavy and I couldn't keep them open.

Someone ran up to me with a bottle of water that only had a little in it. I took it and drank it. I still didn't feel good. I try to stand up but the next thing I know I pass out and fall into Carl's arms.

*Daryl's p.o.v.*

Roxie just passed out and fell into Carl's arms. I ran to her and picked her up. "Help!" I yelled. Gabriel said that there was a couch in his office and I ran to lay her down. I put her down and sat down next to her.

I put my head in my hands. I looked up and saw her hand twitch. I stood up and looked at her as she slowly opened her eyes. She looked at me and said, "What happened?" "You passed out. I don't know why." "Oh."

She stands up slowly and I help her. "You good?" "Yeah." She walks out with my arm around her for support. Carl runs up to her and hugs her tightly. I guess he really does love her. I know she really loves him.

*a few hours later: Roxie's p.o.v.*

I was sitting on the floor waiting for them to get back from the place they went to to get food. Carl sits beside me and puts his arm around my waist. "You know I love you right?" He asks. I chuckle and says, "Yes." "Good." It just got really quiet after that. The door opened and everyone walked in with a lot of food. I smiled as they set it all out.

When we all started eating Bob walked outside to get fresh air I guess. I walked over to my dad with a can of green beans and a spoon in my hand. I sat down beside him and started eating.  "Where did Beth go?" "I don't know. I was with her and we were in this funeral home. It was attacked by walkers and I told her to run. When I got out she was no where to be found and all u saw was a car with a white cross on the back driving away." "Oh. I miss her." "I know you do."

After that he went outside and said he was gonna look for Carol. I sat down beside Carl and finished my food. After I finished I laid my head on his shoulder and closed my eyes. He put his empty can down and took some random jackets and put them down like pillows for us. He then laid us down and I put my head on his chest. He put his arm around my waist.

Rosita came over and put a blanket over us and told everyone to be quiet so we could sleep. I think I might have a good bond with her. The last thing I heard before I drifted off into peaceful sleep was Carl whisper, "You are every reason that I keep going. I love you and that is the beginning of everything."
