His savior ( A Carl Grimes fan fiction)

Chapter35-The Best Of It

Mia's P.O.V.

"The Governor do you think he'll retaliate?" I ask as Carl rubs my arms up and down with his hands. "Yes." Momma says. We were all talking about what was going on, what had happened, and what we were going to do about The Governor, and his "mini town" Woodbury. I was sitting down in front of Carl on one of the tables they had in our cell block. "Let him try." Glenn growls still very pissed about what this Governor guy let happen to us. I go to stretch but stop in pain since my body was still very sore and I had gotten a cold from being out in the cold the other day. "Ow." I whimper as I hold my side that Merle kept kicking. "Take it easy Mia." Carl tells me as he rubs my shoulders with his hands. I place my head in my hands and sigh in frustration. Me being sore only had gotten worse today. It was so bad I couldn't even get my shoes on without Carl's help because it hurt that bad to bend over even while i was sitting on my floor. "Hey it's okay." Carl whispers to me. "You just need rest still, let your body heal." Pawpaw tells me as I sneeze . "And until then I'm right here to help you with what ever you need. Oh and bless you." Carl says. I nod as i take my head away from my hands. I wince a little as I sit up straight. "The Governor it sounds like he has a whole town, were out numbered and out gunned." Carol explains. I lean back and press my back against Carl's stomach. Carl softly wraps his arms around me. "We could use some reinforcements." Pawpaw nods. Carl nuzzle's his head into my back carefully. Rick nods "Carl I need the keys to see these new people." Rick says. Carl pulled his keys out and handed them to Rick. Nanny came over to me and held out her hand "Your gonna need help." She says. I sigh with a frown then sneeze agin. I sniffle with a nod "Yeah I know." I take her hand and Nanny helps me stand up as Carl placed his hands on my hips lightly. I close my eyes tightly and whimper "Ow, Ow, Ow, Ow" I cry out in pain. Carl stands up "It's okay baby we got it." Carl kisses my cheek. I nod and then walk to the other group with everyone. "You wanna sit?" Carl asks me. I shake my head "No, no. I like standing better right now." I shake my head. Carl nods as I place my hand in his. Rick walks up to the group "Im Tyreese." Tyreese tells Rick. "Sasha, Ben, and Allan." Hershel points our everyone. "How'd you get in?" Rick asks. "Theres a wall thats down." Tyreese says. I pull on Carl's shirt to get his attention like a little five year old. Carl looks at me "Yes?" He asks as i turn my head and cough into my arm. "Do we have medicine?" I ask as I sneeze. Carl nods "Ill go get it, you just stay here." Carl says. I nod as i sneeze agin. "Mia you okay?" Glenn asks. I nod "Carl's going get me some medicine." Glenn nods as Carl runs back over to me with some medicine. "We only had the liquid kind." Carl says as he pours some of the purple liquid medicine onto a spoon "Ugh, are you serious?" I groan. Carl frowns "Im sorry." he apologizes. "It's not your fault." i shake my head. I open my mouth and Carl puts the spoon of the disgusting tasting liquid in my mouth. I swallow it and Carl hands me a water bottle. "Ew." i shake my head. I quickly grab the water bottle and gulp it down. Carl picks up the medicine and spoon "All good now?" Carl asks. I nod "Thank you baby." Carl smiles at me with a nod. "You all good now?" Rick ask. I nod in response. "How'd you all make it that side was filled with walkers?" Rick asks Tyreese and his group."We lost our friend Donna." Tyreese explains. "I found them in the tombs." Carl says. "And you brought them here?" Rick raises his voice at Carl as he turns around to looks at his son. "He had no choice they were screaming." I defend Carl. Rick nods "Im sorry about your friend." Rick says. "We know how that is." Rick nods. "Hershel said you could use some extra hands, we could help you." Tyreese says "We'll get our own food, water, supplies, and you have a problem with anther group we'll help you with them." Rick shakes his head as Tyreese goes on. "No." Rick says. "Please!" Sasha begs Rick. "No" Rick says. "Lets talk about this we cant just let them go out there." Pawpaw says. I sneeze agin and also cough."Mia, baby girl go lay down." Carl instructs me. I shake my head "No. I don't wanna." I cough "The medicine should kick in soon." I nod. Carl looks at me then sighs "Alright." He says and leaves it at that. "We kept the prisoners look what happened." Rick says. "But Axel and Oscar-" Hayes begins and Rick cuts him off "And wheres Oscar now?" Rick shouts. Carl places his hands on my waist as I jump back from Rick's shout since it took me by surprise. Everyone stayed quiet. "I cant be responsible." Rick shakes his head. I place my hands on top of Carl's that were on my waist. I rub my thumbs over his hands. Carl kisses my shoulder. "You turn us down you are responsible." Tyreese says. "Rick." Pawpaw calls Rick over to him. He started talking to him quietly. "Come on Dad let them stay." Carl whispers. I slide my hands up Carl's arm then back down to his hands "He'll do the right thing." I whisper. Carl watched his Dad as he was thinking about what ever my Pawpaw had told him. Rick sighed and looked up at the staircase that was behind us. He looked confused and shocked. I look behind me and look at the staircase. There was nothing there. I furrowed my eyebrows "Whats wrong?" Carl asks.Hayes looks at me "You okay there Mia?" Hayes asks. I look back at Rick as he rubs his eyes then looks back at the staircase. Rick shakes his head "No, no no no no." he whispers. I was so confused "Rick are you okay?" I ask. Rick looks up at the staircase and shakes his head. He walks up to the staircase. "Wh-Why are you here? What.... what do you want from me?" Rick asks. Everyone looks at him confused. There was nothing there. Carl frowns "Dad?" He asks worried. Carl lets go of me and takes a step towards his Dad. Hayes does to but I stay where I am. Rick steps back as he shakes his head "I cant help you! Get out!" Rick yells. Carl jumps back and I grab his arm. Carl looked at his father in fear. Hayes looked shocked at his Uncle's sudden out burst."Get out!" Rick yells as he turns around to face everyone. Rick started pacing around the room and freaking out. Carl grabs my arm looking for some support. He was scared and confused just like Rick. I pull Carl closer to me. "Hey easy Rick theres no need to-" momma starts but Rick cuts her off "You don't belong here get out!" Rick yells at Tyreese's group as he still paced around the room. I pulled Carl back towards me as I jump back from Rick. Carl shakes his head as he looks at his Dad in fear. Rick pulled out his gun and Carl pushed me behind him. Momma grabbed Hayes and ran towards me and Carl and stood in front of us. "Okay okay were going, nobody has to get shot here." Tyreese says. "Why are you still here?" Rick yells. Carl clutches onto my shirt and I place a hand on his back. "Go! Just go!" Glenn says and guides the group out. Carl was scared I could tell. I wrap my arms around Carl's neck and stroke his hair as he wraps he arms around my hips. "It's okay." i whisper to Carl and kiss his temple. Carl stared at Rick as Rick still paced around with his hands over his face. Momma hugged me Carl and Hayes"Lets go to our cell block and talk." She whispers to us. I nod "Come on Carl." i say. Carl nods and I bring him to his cell. We sit down on his bunk and Mom stands up in front of us as Hayes sits on the floor. "You okay Carl?" Momma asks. Carl shakes his head "My Dad is going crazy." Carl says. "Carl he just lost your mom he's going through a lot. Im sure he'll be okay soon." I reassure Carl. Carl shake his head "I think....I think he saw mom." Carl looks at me "Mia he pulled a gun out when people were trying to have a perfect calm conversation with him. He's getting......he's getting dangerous." Carl explains to me. "Carl don't say that your father is....just going...through a tough time." Momma says. "I don't want him to hurt y'all." Hayes shakes his head "He wouldn't hurt any of us Carl" Carl looks up at Hayes. "You dont know that any more Hayes, none of us do." Carl says. Carl squeezed my waist a little too hard and i hiss in pain. "Shoot im sorry." Carl apologizes as he lets go of me. I nod as the pain goes away "It's fine. Im fine." i say with a nod. Carl looks at his hands "I don't...I don't think I want you or Judith next to Dad for a while." Carl tells me. "Carl you cant take his daughter away from him!" Hayes disagrees with Carl. "If I feel like she may not be safe yes I can!" Carl protest. I place my hand on Carl's shoulder "He needs his family. Taking her away would kill him Carl. He needs you and Judy. Talk to him, tell him how you feel." I suggest. Carl nods "I guess" mom places a hand on Hayes's shoulder "I don't want y'all to be scared of him. Any of you. Do you hear me? He needs us. All of us. We are a family and we stay together." Momma says. We all nod in agreement. "Good. Now im going....rest. Mia take it easy okay sweetie. Your sore and sick you need rest." Momma tells me. I nod "Ive got her Maggie." Carl tells my mom. Momma smiles "Thank you Carl." Momma thanks Carl and Carl smiles. Momma leaves and we all stay quiet for a little while. "Mia i hate to ask but what happened when ever they took you? No one would tell me and each time I came check on you you and Carl were sleeping." Hayes explains. I explained everything to Hayes and Carl just stared at the wall as I explained. "That sounds horrible." Hayes says. I lift up my shirt and show Hayes the bruises Merle left on my sides and stomach then the marks the boy left. Carl grabbed my shirt and yanked it down aggressively. Then looked back at the wall. "I was just showing him." i say. "Yeah well not everybody is comfortable with seeing their girlfriend all beat up Mia." Carl snaps. I nod "Im sorry." I apologize. Carl sighs "Can we talk about something not bad?" Carl asks "Well these last few days everything has been screwed and if The Governor comes we are screwed so what else is there to talk about when thats the only thing happening." Hayes says. "The Governor wont get us." Carl shakes his head. "But if he does?" I ask. Carl shrugs "We fight." Carl says. "We fight as a family. As simple as that, and if we go down....we go down as a family, like Maggie said. Were a family, we stick together. We all need each other." Carl explains. I nod "Fighting just doesn't seem like our things though. We've never had to do anything like this before, fight against people." I say. "If we even have to do it." Hayes reminds me. I nod "True." Carl sighs "Can we go outside?" Carl ask. I nod and we go outside into the field. Rick ran outside and towards Lori's grave. Carl watches his father carefully as we all sit in the grass. "Do....do you think he's hallucinating and is seeing my mom?" Carl asks. "Why would think that?" Hayes asks. Carl shrugs "He's right next to her grave and he would look at my mom like that at times....I dont know it's stupid." Carl shakes his head. I look at Rick. "You may be right." I tell Carl. "He'a looking at nothing as if it was Lori." I explain. Rick looks around and around confused then looks towards outside gates. He runs out of the gates "What is he doing?" Hayes asks. Carl and Hayes stand up to see what Rick was going to do. Carl helps me up carefully "Careful baby." Carl tells me as I stand up with his help. Michonne who was outside too came running towards us "What is he doing?" She asks. We shrug "We don't know." Hayes answers. Rick lifts his hand up and reaches out as if there was something he could touch, and he still had that look he would give Lori when ever they were having a sweet touching moment, or just a happy moment. "Carl we need you!" Glenn yells. We walked towards Glenn who was in the court yard. "We need you to tell us where you found Tyreese's group." Glenn explains as we walk inside. Glenn kneels down to the ground and starts drawing a diorama of the rooms the prison had. "You found them here?" Glenn asks. Carl nods "Right there while Hayes watched the group for me yeah." he says. "We secured this." Glenn says. "Yeah but Tyreese thought he came through here." Carl points to where Tyreese said he came from. "Okay. The whole front of the prison isn't secure. If The Governor just strolled in then well have a big problem." Glenn explains. "Why are we even so sure he'll attack?" I ask. "We don't honestly know." I say. "Yes but it's better to be safe then sorry." Carl explains to me. "Maybe with what ive been told how Rick went to go back and got Daryl and Rick had to start shooting maybe that scared them off." I say. "He had a fish tank full of heads." Michonne tells me. I frown "Walker and human. Trophies is what he thought of them as." Michonne explains. "Thats horrible!" I gasp. Carl stands up from where he was kneeling next to Glenn. "He's coming." Michonne nods. "We should hit him now." Glenn suggest. "What?" Carol asks. "We'll sneak in and put a bullet in his head!" Glenn says. "Were not assassins." I shake my head. Glenn stands up "You know where his apartment is." Glenn tells Michonne. "You and I can end this tonight." I shake my head "Glenn no! Things can go south then you die and we lose you! We cant lose someone agin this week! We've already lost to much!" I argue. "Mia's right Glenn. You cant go." Nanny agrees with me. "Last time you went, you got beat, so did Mia, Daryl get taken, Mia nearly got rapped, you and Maggie were nearly executed and a few more really good punches and kicks for you and you would've been a goner Glenn." Pawpaw explains. "You cant stop me." Glenn says. "Rick would never allow this." Pawpaw shakes his head. "You really think he is in any position to make that choice?" Glenn asks. "I think he should go." Carl says. I l look at Carl "Are you crazy?" I ask. "The man nearly got you rapped Mia! It would be his fault if it happened because it was The Governor who got Merle to get y'all! He's the one who told Merle what to do to ya'll!" Carl shouts. "Kill him! Kill the son-of-bitch!" Carl yells. "Carl!" I yell at him shocked at the words coming out of his mouth. Carl was mad just thinking about what happened. Him and Glenn felt the same way. The Governor tried hurting me and my mom so now they want revenge. "I wanna go with you." Carl tells Glenn. "You go i want to come." Carl says. I grab his arm "You....you are not leaving me." I shake my head "You can't Carl." Carl grabs my hand "He goes. I go." Carl tells me. "If he is really on his way we should be out of here by now." Pawpaw says. "And go where?" Glenn asks "Anywhere but here." Pawpaw says. I pull Carl aside as they talk "Your not going." I tell him. "But Mia I am." Carl says. "You cant! These people they're stronger then us Carl. If something happened to you and Glenn came back with your dead body that would kill me." Carl frowns "Please Carl just stay with me. I need somebody and that somebody is you." I tell Carl as I place my hand on the back of his head and grab his hair then twist it in my fingers "I need you baby.Don't leave me." i whisper. Carl sighs and places his hands on my waist "Fine, I wont go." Carl says. Relief washes over me and I smile "Thank you." i say and kiss Carl's lips. He kisses my lips back then pulls away "Im not happy about it but ill do it." Carl grumbles. I frown "Carl it's for your own good." I say. Carl shrugs "Whatever" he grumbles. I frown "Please don't be mad." I whisper. Carl just crosses his arms over his chest and leans on the wall next to him. "Carl, im sorry it's just.....I need you.Please don't be mad." I tell him. Carl looked up at me and titled his hat back since it was covering his face. Carl stares at me as if he was annoyed. I frown and start to get tears in my eyes because i really didn't want Carl to be mad, i needed him right now. "Im sorry Carl, but I need you alive." I croak.Carl watches me as I shake my head and my hair falls into my face. He wasn't going any where any more for sure. I had him feeling sorry and he was wrapped around my finger. I could tell. Don't get me wrong I was really upset with Carl leaving, but I may have been trying to over due it so he would absolutely one hundred percent stay.Carl sighs and pushes my hair put of my face as a single tear slips from my eye. "Don't...don't cry." Carl sighs in frustration. "Your mad at me now. You might as well go because your not gonna talk to me since your mad, and I need you but if you wont talk to me then it's like you left so just go." i ramble. Carl frowns "Im not mad I just......I wanna make sure that filthy bastard never does anything like this agin.You could've gotten hurt even worse then you did because of him Mia, he has to go." Carl says as he hugs me. Carl lifts one hand up then wipes my tear away. He hugs me agin and I return the hug. "You need me?" Carl asks. I nod "Badly Carl." i say. Carl nods "Then ill stay to take care of you babygirl." Carl says as I look up at him. Carl smiles "I love how your shorter then me so you have to look up at me." Carl says. I smile with a giggle as Carl leans down. He kisses my lips and I kiss him back. When Carl pulls away Carl brings me back to the group. "We stay put." Glenn says. Carl nods "She didn't want me to go so I wasn't going to any way." Carl says. In look what around the room "Where's Momma?" I ask. "She walked to her cell." Carol tells me.Momma seemed upset. She was only talking to me Pawpaw, Nanny, Carl, and Hayes. She hasn't even uttered a word to Glenn yet. It was weird. I nod in response "were gonna defend this place, were gonna make a stand." Glenn explains. I sneeze and sigh "Not agin" I groan. Carl frowns as I cough into my arm. I groan agin as pain shoots through out my throat from my cough. "Ill get the medicine." Carl says. I nod "Please baby boy?" I ask. Carl nods and quickly gets my medicine. Carl comes back and pours some on a spoon "Are you sure we don't have the pill kind?" I ask as Carl brings the spoon up to my mouth "Theres no pills my baby. I'm sorry, we picked this up a while back while clearing a house. It isn't even from here. Now open up Kitten." Carl says. I open my mouth and Carl sticks the spoon in my mouth. I cringe at the disgusting taste and swallow it. Carl pulls the spoon out of my mouth as I scrunch up my face. He laughs "Oh thats an adorable face." He says as I take a sip of water to wash down the horrid taste. "Shut up." I say as I close my water bottle. "It's adorable how you let me treat you like a five year old while I'm giving you medicine too." Carl teased with a smirk. "Once agin, shut up!" I say and playfully punch Carl. "Mia I do need Carl though." Glenn says. I wrap my arms around Carl's neck and he wraps his arms around my waist softly "Why?" I ask. "I need to bring him to the tombs and he needs to show me where to go, where he found Tyreese's group." Glenn says. I loosen my grip around Carl's neck "Oh okay. Thats fine." I nod. "You sure you dont need me?" Carl asks. "A hour. Ill be fine by myself for an hour." I nod. Carl nods and holds my cheeks in his hands. He kisses me roughly. I kiss him back and he pulls away "i love you." Carl says as he rubs his thumbs over my cheeks. "I know Carl. I love you too." I tell him. Carl smiles as he continues to run his thumbs over my cheeks. Carl kisses my lips agin. I place a hand on his neck to pull him more down towards me. "Okay you cant kiss her forever." Glenn says. Carl kisses me harder then pulls away "Yeah I can." Carl argues. Carl wraps his arms around my waist then dips me down carefully to kiss me like they do in the movies. Carl kisses my lips agin and i cup his cheeks in my hands as he holds me up by my back gently with his hands. I pull away and kiss him agin. I giggle "You gotta go Carl." Carl stands me back up then twirls me around once. I almost fall into Carl's chest but he quickly and softly grabs me so i wouldn't get hurt since Im sore still, Carl holds me close to him. "Got you my beautiful princess." Carl shows his beautiful perfect smile and I blush. Glenn by now had went with everyone else so we did too. "Hayes is on watch right?" Glenn asks. "No Hayes went put Judith down for me." Nanny says. Glenn looks at everyone "Who the hell is on guard duty?" He askss. Glenn sighs as he shakes his head "Damn it." Glenn curses and walks outside. "I think our trip is a little delayed." Carl tells me. I nod "Guess so." I nod. "Carl come on!" Glenn yells. I frown "Never mind." I sigh. Carl frowns "It'll be okay. Look how bout you go lay down. Rest up. I don't want you getting up and hurting yourself more then you are." Carl tells me. "Carl ill be fine with walking it just hurts when i extend my torso or bend it." I tell Carl. He nods "Still id feel better if you stayed resting while Im gone." Carl tells me. He takes my hand and brings me to the stairs "Ugh these make me hurt too." i groan. Carl grabs my hands and waist lightly "You got it come on." Carl says. Carl helps me up the stairs. We go into his cell because thats where i wanted to be. Carl helps me lay down on the bed. I bite my bottom lip as I lay down and pain takes over my side and stomach. Carl kisses my forehead as my head hits the pillow. "Carl ill be bored with out you." I whine. Carl nods "I know so I grabbed you a book." Carl says. I look at the big book he takes from his bag. "I found Harry Potter somewhere along the road before we came here so if you want I have a book for you, but thats it Kitten." I grab the book and smile "This is fine." i say as i pull Carl's comforter over me. I smiled as i took a whiff of his comforter that smelled like him. Gosh i loved how it smelled strictly like him nothing else.I open the book "All good?" Carl asks. I nod "Okay i promise ill be back soon." Carl says. He kisses my forehead then leaves the room. I read a few pages of the book then decided i didn't want to read. I wanted to be downstairs with everyone not here by myself. Okay this will hurt like hell but i gotta get out of here. I move Carl's comforter off of me and grab one of the bars to help me sit up. I groan in pain as i sit up. Momma walks into the cell "Mia what are you doing?!" Mom asks. "I don't wanna stay up here by myself." I say. Mom helps me up "Next time call me and ill come help you." Mom says. I nod and mom brings me downstairs with everyone else then goes straight back to her cell. Everyone talked and waited for the boys to come back. Nanny opens the door and i see Glenn and Carl walk in breathless. "The boiler room is over run agin." Glenn says as he tries to catch his breath like Carl. "Full trail of walkers leading to it." Carl breaths. Carl and Glenn had walker blood on them. I stood up to quickly then grabbed the table "Ahh." i hiss in pain. Carl Looks at me "Why aren't you resting?" Carl asks. "i got bored. Why are you full of walker blood?" i ask. "We had to kill some walkers thats it. Were fine." Carl explains while walking towards me "Are you okay?" I ask him as he sits next to me still trying to catch his breath. "Yeah just uh... uh we had to run a little." Carl nods. "Were waisting time. The Governor is supposedly on the way and were stuck in here with walkers." Pawpaw says. "Running isn't an option! We have to stay! We have a baby that cries every four hours and Hershel only has one leg! We wouldn't get far at all so we stay!" Glenn says. Carl removes his hat then wipes the sweat that was on his forehead onto his flannel. He puts the hat back on his head. "The tombs are filled up agin. It may just be a matter of time before the walkers push in here." Carol says. "We just have to go to the far side of the prison. Kill the walkers then make sure they stop coming in from where ever they are coming in from." I say. Glenn nods "We'll do that." he says "Ill help." Axel says. Glenn shakes his head "Ill take Maggie." Glenn says. I shake my head "Momma doesn't seem to happy with any one but me Carl and Hayes today. I don't think she'll do it." I say honestly. Glenn walked off to find momma. "Pawpaw how long should i be this sore?" I ask as i rub my side and stomach lightly. "Tomorrow it should start to feel better." Pawpaw tells me. I nod as Carl places his hands where mine were "You need me to do something?" He asks. I shake my head "No im fine." I tell Carl. Hayes suggested we go outside agin so we did. I was standing next to Carl and Hayes and Carol was next to Axel a little further away from us. Everything was fine until a gun shot went off and Axel fell to the ground with blood covering him. "Get down!" Carol yells. Carl pushed me down into the tall grass and pulls Hayes down with him. Gun shoots went off as we hid in the tall grass. I placed a hand over my mouth as my stomach and side got hit with pain, this time it hurt extra bad though because Carl pushed me not meaning to hurt me though. Carl looked at me "Oh shit Mia im sorry!" Carl says. "Hayes get Mia inside ill cover you." Carl says as he pulls oit his gun. "Are you crazy im not leaving you!" I say. Carl looks at me "Go with Hayes now!" Carl says. Hayes helps me stand up. He runs with me towards the doors and Carl shoots at the people who tried shooting at us and him. Hayes opens the door "Go!" he yells "But Carl!" I yell at Hayes and grab my gun "Im helping him." I say. "Mia no!" Hayes yells as I run towards Carl. I bring my gun up and start shooting at the people who were shooting at us. "What the hell are you doing?" Carl yells over the loud gun shoots. I hide behind a barrel with him that was in the courtyard"Im not leaving you." I yell as a bullet hits the barrel. "Mia you gotta go! NOW!" Carl yells as a bullet flies past my shoulder. I aim at the guy who tried shooting me and pull the trigger nut only hit next to the guy."Im not leaving!" I yell as Carl attempts to get him too. Momma ran out with some guns and gave one to Hayes and one to Nanny. It went silent for a while then a few more gun shoots were fired. Then a few more, after that they went back to how they were before a constant on going row of fires, until we heard a truck. The truck rammed through our gates knocking them down and stopped in the field. Carl grabbed my hand "I want you to go inside now" carl growls. "Im not fucking leaving you! What do you not understand Carl?" I growl back at Carl. The truck stayed there for a moment. The back of the truck came down and walkers poured out of it. "Carl my grandpa is in that field!" I panic. Carl nods as we shoot at the guy we just couldn't seem to shoot down. "He'll....he' be fine." Carl says. Momma shot the man who was shooting at us from behind us with Carol. It was now obvious who had done this. It was The Governor. He got in his truck with his people and drove off. We just had to deal with the walkers now, but we didnt have enough bullets. We run to the gate and open it as Glenn came back with Pawpaw in the truck and Michonne because Michonne helped get Pawpaw safe, and Glenn had went check out Woodbury, well the outside of it. He came back just in time though, thank god. Carl closed the gate behind the truck. Carl grabs my arm "Why the hell didn't you go inside when i told you too? You could've gotten killed Mia!" Carl says. "I told you I wasn't leaving you! You could've gotten killed too Carl!" I tell him. Carl sighs "Mia i dont care about me! I care about you!
Your already hurt Mia!" Carl stresses. "I care about you though Carl! I couldn't just let you fight by yourself! We are a family. We fight, we fight together." i tell Carl. Carl nods "Plus Carl i know your scared to lose me but I'm not going anywhere. You cant keep me from helping the group. If you get to do these things i wanna do them too." I say. "Okay,thats..thats fair enough I guess." Carl sighs. I knew he didn't like the fact that I wanted to help out with the things like this in the group, but he was gonna have to get over it. "Are you okay. You didn't get hit?" Carl asks. I shake my head "Are you okay?" I ask. Carl nods and kisses my lips. Everyone looked out at the field that was now covered in walkers. "It's never gonna end will it?" I ask. Carl frowns and Momma puts a hand on my shoulder "What never will end?" Carl asks me. "The pain, the sorrow, the running, the hiding, all of it. Its never gonna end.....will it?" I ask everyone. They look at me and I look at them. "We don't know Mia." Glenn says as he puts a hand on my shoulder. I frown and Carl places a hand on my back. "We can make it okay Mia." Carl whispers to me. "How?" I ask him. Carl holds onto my waist "It may never end, but me and you can still make the best of it, and I will for you if you want." Carl whispers in my ear as he holds me close to him. I wrap my arms around his neck and grab onto his hair, twisting and pulling on some of it lightly as Carl wraps his arms around my hips. "Make the best of it for me." I whisper in his ear.
