Dead or alive, I love you

6.8 start to finish

She falls on the floor next him and Carl runs to her. He pulls her up and they run away from the walkers that walk into Alexandria.

They run with michonne, Gabriel and Ron. They go up to Rick who drags Deanna with him. She stabs a walker but Michonne pulls her back.

She goes into the house of Jessie and holds a crying Judith through the chaos. "Gen! Genevive! Are you there? What's going on?" Daryl yells over the walkie.

She pulls it off her belt, "I'm here, we're okay, we're safe." She says making him calm down.

"What happened?" He asks worried.

"The tower...it fell into the east part of the wall. Glenn's alive, but as soon as we saw the signal the tower fell. They're everywhere, we're in Jessie's house," she explains as Judith stops crying.

"We're on our way back, just hang tight," he says with a rush in his voice.

She doesn't reply and thinks for a minute. "Daryl!" She says loudly into the walkie.

He doesn't answer but she knows he's listening. "I'm..." she pauses. "I love you," she says mentally slapping herself on the head.

"I love you too," he says before putting his walkie away.

Deanna was bit and they can't amputate it. Genny stands by a window with her hand on her belly. She hears fighting in the garage and runs with Rick and Jessie.

Carl and Ron are pulled out by Rick and the couch is put in front of the door. Walkers start trying to get in and Genny puts an arrow on her bow.

"Gen, you stay back. No matter what," Rick commands her.

She rolls her eyes and goes upstairs. She sits on the stairs listening to the ultimate chaos downstairs. "Everybody upstairs, now!" Michonne yells suddenly.

Rick and Gabriel drag the couch in front of the stairs but not before Rick grabs two walkers. Genny immediately knows what he's gonna do and she grabs some sheets.

He looks at her. "You're not gonna throw up, you can't," he says.

She looks at him for a minute before nodding. "I won't," she says and he cuts open a walker.

She gags and moves back a bit with her nose on her upper arm. Her eyes are closed as her hand is pressed against her belly. "You okay?" Rick asks putting a bedsheet on Carl.

"Never been better," she says as Michonne puts one of the sheets over her head.

She gets up and looks at Rick. "There's no other way," he says.

"As long as you get us out of here," she says nodding.

He nods putting the blood on her. When everybody is covered Rick walks over to the bedroom where Deanna is to say goodbye.

He goes into another and grabs Judith. Judith is put under Genny's sheet as Judith is calm with her. Rick walks in the front and moves the couch.

He looks at Genny and grabs her hand. He squeezes it before letting go and maneuvering through the walkers with her.

She holds Judith tightly as she stands outside looking at the herd of walkers. Rick's hand holds her sleeve as Carl's does the same on the other side.

The first step is set and they keep walking hearing Deanna shooting and screaming until it stops. Genny looks at Rick who looks back at her and nods receiving the same nod back.
