We buried Beth today

We buried Beth today. Gabriel prayed over her grave. We all cried for her. She was family. Our family. She would never be forgotten. I would be sure to tell Judith about her, and how her Aunt Beth always looked out for her and sang to her. I would tell her about the kind of person she was. She would never be forgotten.

The next journey was to look for Noah's family. So that's what we did. We had to make a journey to Richmond, Virginia. Noah spent time telling Rick about it, and how Beth was going to go with him.

"It's a long trip, but if it works out, it's the last long trip we have to make." Rick says.

"And what if it isn't around anymore?" Glenn asks.

"Then we keep going." Rick responds.

"Then, we find a new place." Michonne says, smiling and holding onto Riley's bicep.

We started our journey. It was long and hard. We had already made it 500 miles. Luckily, we had cars along the way. Along the way, I found out why I was sick.

About 250 miles in, we had to stop. I kept getting sick. The nausea was getting bad. We had to scavenge an empty town for medicine. Rick and I went alone. We found an abandoned pharmacy and walked in, then took out a handful of walkers that remained.

Rick looks around. "What am I looking for?"

"Anything for nausea, vomiting..." I trial off, looking at the feminine section. "Dammit."

"What?" he asks, making his way over to me.

"How long since we left that neighborhood?" I ask, referring to the house we stayed in after the prison, before Terminus.

"Long enough." Rick says.

"I'm late." I say.

Rick rubs his forehead. He grabs a pregnancy test. We head out back near the woods, away from the others. I stand behind a thick tree.

"Okay." I say. "But close your eyes."

He laughs

He laughs. "I've already seen everything anyways." as he reaches over and hands me the pregnancy test.

"Just cover your ears, close your eyes, and shut up." I say, as he chuckles. I pee on the damn stick. How did I get here, again? Oh right...
