Shortly after Rick hadn't woken up yet so I got up and began to walk back, I stopped for a moment I remembered Jayce saying where he lived and I wanted to see him, I hesitated for a few seconds and then made my way over, I haven't seen him in a while, I walked over to the apartments he lived in and opened the door and made my way upstairs, I knocked on the front door and waited, I heard banging on the door and low growls I furrowed my eyebrows and knocked again, this time it was louder it sounded like a walker, I didn't know what to do was Jayce in there? Why was there a walker in his apartment

"Jayce? Are you okay?" I opened the door stupidly, and I was met with a walker not just any walker, it was Jayce, It reached for my shoulders snapping its teeth at me, I panicked and ran into his kitchen, He followed me almost as quick as I was, I looked in a drawer for a knife and immediately found one

He came rushing towards me and I quickly jabbed my knife into his skull, his body fell to the ground, I snapped back into reality and looked at his lifeless rotting body, I kneeled and looked at him and felt my stomach drop to my knees, I could feel adrenaline being rushed into my body, I hadn't noticed I was crying until my vision blurred I completely broke down into tears next to his body

I cried for ten minutes until I decided to get up I had to tell someone about it I couldn't just let him stay here to rot, As I walked into the living room I noticed something it was an empty pill bottle and four letters, This was a suicide?

I looked over at the letters and looked at the names, Mark, Rio, Max, and Nyla, I picked the one up that had my name on it, I looked over at the kitchen and opened it

I had sobbed even more whilst reading the letter, I knew what he wanted me to do and was scared of what would happen if I did, why on earth would he do this? did he always feel this way? I had to go to Deanna to tell her but what comes after this, I put my knees to my chest and started sobbing uncontrollably, I had missed him so much and when I thought he was back he had died, was it my fault? for talking to him at the party and telling him about Mark? was it my fault for coming here? or for going to terminus and meeting Rick and his group? everything led up to his death and it was all my fault

I got up and groaned, I folded the letter and put it in my back pocket and grabbed the other letters, and then made my way out and shut the door, our apartment was very close so I just ran to it and up the stairs avoiding anyone who would stare at me I opened the front door of the apartment and slammed it shut and slid Max and Rio's letters under there doors and tossed Mark's one on the couch scared of what would've been inside it, I went back out I had to tell Deanna! right now, maybe not about Mark yet, but about Jayce!

I wiped my tears with my sleeve as I walked out I began to walk, to Deanna's house annoyingly enough Ron's house was just a couple doors down, Ron had always sat out on his porch oddly enough when I'm walking past so that didn't do any good right now considering the situation "Nyla! Are you okay?" He exclaimed as I walked by, "No, Jayce is- He's dead!" I rasped

"Jayce? He was the one in your group right?" 

I nodded, "Does anyone know? Did you find him?" He asked, "He was a walker when I found him, in his apartment, I'm the only one who knows right now," I told him fighting through tears, "Come here" He pulled me in a hug, wrapping his arms around my shoulders tightly, I sobbed in his arms "He was my best friend" I cried "It's all my fault!"

"It's not your fault Nyla, Don't say that" Ron reassured me, "Come inside" 

Ron walked up the porch steps with me and when we were inside we went into his bedroom. I hadn't been there since the first day I met him we both sat down on the edge of the bed, "Tell me about him" Ron said, "Uh, I remember when we'd always pretend to go on supply runs but really we'd be hanging out and climbing trees and taunting walkers, yep it was very stupid of us, He always stood up to uh mark, He was Ukrainian he said he hated it there, he had no friends and just a year before the whole outbreak happened he moved to Atlanta when his Mom died"

I gave him a whole runup of what I knew of Jayce and our friendship, and I hadn't realised the time it was getting quite dark outside, "I'll tell Deanna tomorrow, it's too late" He agreed, "You can stay here if you like, My mom's just gone out to go to that meeting and I owe you" 

"Thank you"

I smiled slightly at him, I looked up to meet his eyes, I was staring at him and he was staring right back, He looked down at my lips and then back at my eyes catching me off guard, He leaned in and just like before he pressed his lips to mine and wrapped his arm around my waist, I wrapped my hand around his hair and kissed him back deeper 

-.- 

We were making out on his bed like there was no tomorrow while laying down when we both heard a gunshot coming from where the meeting was making us both jump, "What the hell was that?" I breathed, and we were both panting for air, Ron got up from on top of me and I sat up, He quickly put his shoes on and so did I, It was quite a struggle getting converse on so I did it as quickly as I could

We both rushed out of the house and ran to the place the meeting was which was also where the gunshot came from, We walked in and observed what had happened, I looked down at the floor and saw Reg's lifeless body blood gushing from his neck his eyes open, looking traumatized, And Pete, blood was pouring onto the ground from the bullet wound, I looked at Jesse her jaw was dropped as she saw her ex-husbands body

Deanna was holding Reg's body and sobbing, I looked at Rick he looked emotionless he had blood on his face again, I saw Mark in the small crowd of people looking quite mad but also quite scared, Ron's grip on my hand got tighter as he looked at Rick and Pete's body, "Let's go." He spoke coldly, He glared at his mother as he walked away, We made our way back to Ron's house, and he didn't speak a single word while we walked back 

When we went into his bedroom he instantly hugged me tightly, I hugged him back straight away, and I wrapped my arms around his shoulders, "You can cry" I assured him, He shook his head "I can't." He muttered, shortly after a long hug we both went into his bed and just kept on hugging, his arms held tightly around my waist, and mine over his
