___
Forgive me, Peter, my lost fearless leader
In closets like cedar, preserved from when we were just kids
Is it something I did?
___
That night, Glenn and Rosanna don't sleep a wink. They spent the whole night in Glenn's tent discussing the barn.
They never got a chance to talk like Glenn wanted because of the situation they're in now.
The next morning, the two stick together. Maggie walks up to them with a basket of peaches.
"Are you trying to buy our silence with fruit?" Rose asks.
"Of course not. There's also jerky."
Glenn pushes the basket away. "Will you please tell us why your dad has a secret barn full of walkers? It's creepy."
Maggie holds her hand up. "Shh."
"It's concerning." Rosanna concludes.
"Shh. Just trust me on this, okay?"
Glenn groans. "I suck at lying! I can't even play poker. It's too much like lying."
"Y'all have to keep this to yourselves. You have to. Please."
Rosanna takes a deep breath. "Okay..."
___
"You haven't told him yet?" Glenn asks Lori.
She ushers him to be quiet. "But you have to. You're pregnant."
Rosanna, who was bringing some peaches to Lori, gasps. "You're pregnant?" She whispers.
Lori groans.
"Lori. You need vitamins. Medicine." Rose says, setting down the basket.
"Maybe a nice pillow." Glenn remarks.
"Just tell us what you need." The girl says.
Glenn nods. "Yeah. We can run back into town."
Lori shakes her head. "I need y'all to be quiet about this."
___
Later, Rosanna and Glenn are in the RV waiting for Dale. He walks in and raises his eyebrows at the sight of both sitting at the small table, whispering to each other.
"Want to tell me what's going on?"
Glenn stands. "You're old."
Rosanna quickly stands as well. "Um. You... know things."
Dale rolls his eyes.
"What if somebody told you something that somebody else should know...?" Glenn says biting his fingernails.
Dale sighs and crosses his arms. "Glenn, stop being dramatic. Spit it out."
Glenn and Rosanna look at each other before both talking at once.
"There's walkers in the barn and Lori's pregnant."
"There's walkers in the barn and Lori's pregnant."
Dale's eyes widen as he looks at both of them. He looks out the window to the barn. He looks back at them. "What?"
___
Lori walks up to where Glenn and Rosanna are by the fire.
Rose speaks first. "We're sorry. It just came up. And it was Dale."
