This World We Live In(the walking dead fanfiction)

Chapter 42

Carl got up and walked out of the room to one of the cells.

Everyone looked at me as I watched him walk out. I knew he needed his space but everyone looked as though they want me to go after him.

I sighed and got up.

I started to walk and look through all the cells.
He wasn't in them.
I walked to the very last cell, the furthest away from everybody.

I looked in to see Carl was sitting on the bed with tears streaming down his face.

I tried to open the door but it was locked.

"Carl, please unlock the door. Please, I just wanna talk." I asked but he didn't move.

"Carl? Come on don't shut me out." he didn't move.

"Carl do I have to stand here all day or are you gonna let me in?" I asked and Carl finally stood up.

He then proceeded to put his hands on my shoulders and push me away with all his force.

he pushed me and I fell into the railing that kept me from falling off.
I looked down at everybody. They looked worried.
I looked back at Carl to see him walking to his cell.
I could feel a bruise start to form and my back really hurt but I'm fine.

I walked back downstairs.
"Well?" Beth asked as I passed her.

"Have fun talking to him." I say grumpily.

I trudge to the guard tower.

"Hey. Slow down would you." I heard Daryl say.

"Someone needs to be on watch." I said as I kept walking not looking at him.
"Lizzie, stop. What's that point of keeping watch over something that ain't even safe yet.

Come on down and help us clean out the lower levels." Daryl said I sighed and turned around.

"No." I said.

I walked to the guard tower and climbed up.
I watched Daryl walk away inside the prison and I sat up here.

I heard a door open and close. I heard Lexi's little voice and a little baby giggle.

"Lizzie, come here." I heard Beth say.

I didn't say anything.

I heard whispering and then someone started walking up here.

I turned and saw Alexis.

"Hey Alexis just go back inside okay?" I said. She nodded and went back down.

After a few minutes I heard Beth come up.

"Hey." she said sitting beside me.
"Hey." I said.

I looked at my baby sister. I haven't even held her yet. I'm scared I'll do something. Like when Carl was a baby I was scared to hold him.
I grabbed her hand and she squealed.

"Why are you really up here?" She asked. "Daryl said you were keeping watch but I don't believe him."

"Getting away from Carl."
