Rory

"There was no way they didn't know." I shook my head. The Greene family claimed that they didn't know she was in there, that Otis dealt with the walkers.

I had seen Maggie and Patricia go in there multiple times, how would have they not known.

"If Otis put her in there, that meant she didn't make it past a day, because Carl was shot the next and Otis died that night." I talked to Daryl. He sat there and listened to me spew my thoughts.

"This just doesn't make sense to me right now." I bit my lip. This wasn't adding up.

"Daryl." We both looked up as Lori walked up to the tent. "Beth, she's went into some type of shock." I felt bad for Beth, when everything was done she leaned next to a walker. Her mom. But she wasn't dead, Beth was close to being gone.

"Hershel ran off, into town. Rick and Glenn went after him but they're not back. We need you to go get them."

"No." We both looked at Daryl as he continued to shave away at the stick.

"What?"

"You heard me, Olive Oyl. I said no, your bitch went window shopping, go get him yourself." He waved off and she scoffed.

"How could you be so selfish." I now turned my attention to Lori, at first I was on her side. But after that I'm not, he went out every day he could to find Sofia, he took a bullet and a arrow in the process.

"Lori." She turned towards me and I shook my head, telling her to not right now. She huffed before stomping off.

"I'm sorry she said that, you're not being selfish." I shook my head.

"I know I'm not, I've been treated like a errand boy and I'm done with it." I didn't know what to say, so I didn't say anything at all. It started to get darker and darker.

"Hey Rory, have you seen mom?"

"No, Carl. I haven't seen your mom."

"Ok, I'll go ask Dale." He walked off, away from me and Daryl. I watched as he worked on his bow, or made arrows. Something I did on a daily basis. I was about to speak up when we were interrupted.

"What the fuck did you say to Lori?" Shane stomped up to us.

"She wanted me to go get Rick and Glenn, said no, that she could do it herself." He shrugged. Shane looked at me and I nodded, backing him up.

"Are you kidding me! You sent a pregnant woman out there alone!" Pregnant? Lori was pregnant?

"Lori's pregnant?" Shane ignored me and kept glaring at Daryl.

"Didn't know she was pregnant." He shrugged. Shane let out a frustrated grunt before walking away.

"Lori's pregnant?" I said to no one in particular. What the fuck. I watched as a car left the driveway, guessing that was Shane.

I stayed with Daryl the rest of the night, before I went back to my tent to sleep.

When I woke up, the sun was just beginning to rise. Rick and Glenn weren't back yet, no one else was up yet. So I sat in a rocking chair that was on the porch to watch the sunrise.

"Good morning." I looked over to see Maggie coming out of the front door.

"Good morning Maggie."

"Would you like something to eat, take a shower?" Uhhhh... I didn't know if she was being nice or that was her way of telling me I smelled.

"I could really go for a shower right now." I said truthfully. She walked into the house, and I followed her. she lead me into the familiar bathroom.

"I'll be right back with some clothes and a towel." I nodded and watched as she left. A couple of minutes later she came back with a larger tee-shirt and some pants.

"Here you go, I'll go start breakfast." She left the room. I closed the door behind me and locked it. I quickly took a shower, and shaved myself while doing so. I got out and dried myself. I put on the clothes I was given, a pair of shorts, a tank top and a flannel. I brushed my hair before making my way downstairs. Maggie sat at the table with a book.

"Thank you." I was sat a plate of eggs, toast and bacon in front of me. I haven't had bacon in so long.

"So... you and Glenn." I spoke up after a couple of seconds. Maggie stopped the bite she was going to take and slowly put her fork back on the plate. She gave me a small smile before looking down.

"Uh, it just kinda happened." She admitted, which was perfectly fine.

"That's cute, you both deserve to be happy." I tell her. Glenn did deserve to be happy, he had lost his whole birth family, and Maggie, I could tell she needed someone.

"What about you, any love." I shake my head. "What about Daryl, y'all are usually together."

"Yeah, but that doesn't mean anything, he's an adult, I'm a minor."

"I don't think age matters anymore." She shrugs. Hmph, maybe she's right, There weren't any laws anymore, but morals.

We still had morals.

"I think of you really want it, go after it." I bit my lip and nodded. Go after it.

Me and Maggie talked for a little while longer, maybe till, what I can only guess is 8:30 in the morning. She went to go check on Beth and I went outside to see if anyone was awake.

No one was, so I went to Daryl's camp. waiting for him. He was either asleep still, or he went out for a little bit. But I waited there, drawing things in the dirt.

"Whatcha doing up so early?" Daryl's tent zipped open.

"Woke up, couldn't get back to sleep." I twirled my thumbs around each other. He took notice of that action.

"What's wrong?" He slipped on his boots and he zipped up his tent before sitting down next to me.

"I don't know, a lot on my mind lately." A lot meaning you.

"Yeah, I think we've all had a lot on our minds lately."

"You're right." I bit my lip slightly. I mustered up the confidence to do a little action. I leaned my head to the side, laying it on Daryl's shoulder. I felt his body tense a little before it relaxed. He picked and pulled at random grass as we sat in silence. I lifted my head up when a car approached.

"C'mon! that has to be them." I lifted him to his feet, dragging him behind me to the car that just pulled up. Rick got out of the driver seat, I squealed a little, jumping into his arms.

"Uh, who's that?" I pulled my head from Rick's shoulder and looked to where T-dog was pointing. In the back of the car, all tied up was a boy.

"That's Randall."
