The Walsh's (UNDER EDITING)

Season 2 ~ Chapter 12

Shane pulled me gently, by the wrist, out of Rick's tent. His beautiful chocolate eyes clouded with anger as we returned to our tent. Jason had a few tears falling down his cheeks, he was trying his best to hide his face in Shane's shoulder but I could still see his little blue eyes with tears in them. "Am I in trouble Daddy?" Jason asked and Shane stopped dead in his tracks. "No bud, you did what you had to, to protect your momma. It's your Uncle that Daddy's mad at." replied Shane making Jason relax and hug his Daddy's neck. I waited outside the tent whilst Shane put Jason back to bed. Once he emeraged, I wrapped my arms around his neck and held him there for a solid ten minutes. "What's up with Rick? Why'd he attack you?" Shane asked and I pulled back. "Shane, I don't care what about anything you've done, I still love you." I said earning a confused look from Shane, "what's that suppose to mean?" Shane said, a smirk forming on his face. "Dale came to me today and said you murdered that man who shot Jason." I said. The smirk quickly faded and Shane gipped my shoulders gently. His now clear chocolate orbs starring into my icey blue ones, "Kat, anything that happened that night was for you and Jason. My intention at first wasn't to kill him but the situation got dyer and one of us wasn't gonna make it." Shane explained kissing my hands throughout the entire speech.

He lowered his head, resting it on my shoulder letting my hand run over his shaven head. I smiled as I brought his head back up to meet my gaze. "Shane, I don't care about that. I don't care if people think your dangerous, your still my husband and father of my children. This doesn't change anything between us." I said making Shane smile and embrace me again. "Is that why Rick flipped?" he asked and I nodded into his neck. "He wanted me and Jason to stay away from you." I explained and Shane tighten his grip on me slighlty. "That's never gonna happen baby, I won't let that happen." he replied and I smiled. "I know babe." I said following Shane to bed.

"The least you could do before running off is apologise to your sister, her husband and your nephew!"

"I will when I get back!"

I propped myself up on my elbows as I woke up to the sound of Rick and Lori arguing right outside my tent. I pulled on my boots and crawled out in front of them. "What the hell is going on?" I asked trying to adjust to the sunlight. "Hershel's gonna missing, Beth's in some kind of shock and Rick and Glenn are going into town to find him." explained Lori as Rick gave me another disapproving look. I glared at him as Shane wrapped a protective arm around my waist and pulled me close to his side. Rick groaned, "I'm going and that's final." he shouted storming off towards the car Glenn was sitting in. "Jerk." I mumbled slipping out of Shane's grip and walking over to Daryl and my other kids.

"Kat. You ok? I heard about what Rick did." said Daryl leaping from his place and quickly checking me over. I giggled and pushed him back. "I'm fine, it was my son who saved my life though." I replied looking over to Jason, who was playing with his cousin and aunt. "Brave kid." stated Daryl, "it's all Shane. Nothing to do with me." I replied making him chuckle slightly. "Nah, there's something kicking about him that's all you." said Daryl nudging me. I scoffed and punched his shoulder playfully. "Momma, you wanna come draw with us?" Hunter asked catching Daryl and I's attention. "Sure sweetie and Daddy's gonna join us." I said dragging Daryl down to the ground with me. "Wait. What." said Daryl as we sat beside the boys, I pulled Ryder up into my lap and began drawing with them.

Jason ran over and jumped on to Daryl's back. "Hi Daryl." he shouted as Daryl pulled him gently over his shoulder and into his lap. "Hey look, it's Sharp Shooter." said Daryl tickling Jason's sides causing him to squeal. "Stop it Daryl." shouted Jason playfully, flailing around in Daryl's arms. I pulled Jason from Daryl's grasp and pulled him into my lap with Ryder. "Can I play?" he asked and I nodded. "Of course." I said and Daryl smiled. I couldn't exactly say no, Hunter and Ryder are Jason's half brothers. So they are his family. "Hey, I gotta go find Shane. Could you watch him?" I mouthed to Daryl who nodded his response. I placed Jason beside Daryl and jogged off to find my husband. "Playing Momma Bear with all the kids instead of one." I heard Andrea stated from my left. I growled and continued walking towards Shane's truck. "You can't hide forever Kat, it's never gonna happen!" Andrea shouted as I stormed on.

"Bitch." I grumbled reaching Shane's truck. He was fiddling with our old family picture that we took for Jason's fifth birthday. "We're gonna have to get that updated." I joked rubbing my stomach. Shane laughed to himself, "if we ever find a camera." he mumbled stepping out of the truck. I kissed his cheek, wrapped my arms around his neck and then went straight for his lips. Shane accepted quite happily and our lips quickly melted together. We pulled away to catch out breath as Shane's hands travelled down to my hips. "Now, what did you want me for?" he asked quietly making me chuckle. "I just wanna talk about lat night and ask you something." I explained and Shane raised an eyebrow. "Do you think Jason would have fired that gun?" I asked and Shane attacked my lips again. "No babe because that's not his nature and he knows that's his uncle. He couldn't have done it." replied Shane and I sighed.

"What? Isn't that what you wanted me to say?" asked Shane, "it's not that, it's just... What if that was a walker?" I asked. "Rick was there, he would have saved you. Your brother might have flipped but he still cares about you." said Shane and I hugged him. "Thanks babe, now why don't you come draw with me and Jase. Daryl and his kids are joining us." I said tugging on his arm. "Ok, ok. I'm coming." he said laughing at me...

-------------------------------------------------

We had seen sight of Rick, Glenn or Hershel all night and Shane was getting ready to go out just as Rick's car pulled up. "Holy shit, they're alive." said Cody earnig him an elbow in the gut from both Isabella and Daryl. Rick ran straight up to me and wrapped his arms around my neck. "What the hell?" I said confused. "I'm so sorry for the other night, I shouldn't have made Jason point that gun at me. Please forgive me." Rick begged and I hugged him back. "It's ok Rick, just please apologise to my husband and son." I said and he nodded his head into my shoulder. "Who the hell is that?!" exclaimed T-Dog pointing to the back of the car where a young boy, no older that 18 or 19. This was gonna be an interesting day because I could see the look in Shane's eyes and it's not a good look...
