~Two weeks later~

"Be safe on your run ok?" Carl hugs me tightly and I wrap my arms around his torso, resting my head on his left shoulder. I breath out in comfort. Carl is the only one that I can hug and feel safe. Enid isn't exactly the hugging type, and when I hug Charlie, which is rare, is only when I'm comforting him.

I release from his comforting hug. "Always am." I smile and look deeply in his sea blue eyes. Whenever I look in those beautiful blue eyes of his, my body melts. They're like a twinkling light blue sea, and I'm drowning.

My hand slides up his neck, through his hair and up his head as I passionately kiss him on the lips. I release and smile.

"See you soon!" I say while walking out the door. He waves back, with one hand in his jeans pocket, smiling.

I walk to the entrance of the gate to meet the rest of the group. I notice Glenn immediately, and wave to get his attention. He waves back half smiling. I can tell that something is wrong. He's probably still scarred after Noah.

Glenn moves to the side to reveal Maggie and Daryl, opposite of him. I walk to his side and join their conversation.

"Glenn, are you sure you're gonna be ok going on this run?" We would all understand if you don't want to go. I can cover for you." Maggie and Daryl nod agreeing.

"No, no I'm fine. I need to go anyway. Judith needs new clothes."

"I can always get those, but you sure?"

He takes a deep breath in looking ahead. "Yes." He sternly looks at me with sincerity. I nod accepting his decision.

"Let's go, we don't got much time before it gets dark." Daryl comments.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"We're here!" Glenn tells everyone in the van. Daryl pulls into a small parking lot connected to a small shopping center that consists of a grocery store, baby store, pharmacy, clothing store, and an ice cream store.

We all jump out of the van and start to kill off the walkers. A large heard is heading towards our direction.

I don't think we're going to be able to kill them all off.

I grab my machete from my pocket and stab some walkers in the eyes and forehead. I realize quickly how fast the walkers are piling up, so I grab my gun and shoot a few in the head, not missing a single walker.

"Shit," Daryl yells to himself while stabbing walkers. "Everyone get in that store NOW!" He points to the clothing store up ahead, just a few feet from where we are standing. Daryl starts to sprint towards the store followed by Maggie and Glenn, and then I trail behind, killing walkers as I go.

I run in the building last and Daryl and Glenn close the doors right behind me as I dash in the store. Glenn and Maggie hold the doors while Daryl grabs a plank of wood to put on the door to hold it. Glenn, Maggie, and Daryl catch their breath for a second.

"I'll start looking for supplies." I suggest seeing that I'm the only one not out of breath.

"Yeah go check it out. We're right behind you." Glenn says breathing in and out heavily.

I nod my head and start checking for walkers. I walk down each rack and checking every corner to make sure it's safe.

Two walkers come up behind me and I stab one in the head while I kick the other one back. I retrieve my knife and kick the other in the face a few times, with a large amount of pressure. I walk down the last two isles and find no walkers.

Well didn't I get lucky?

"Clear!" I yell. I head to the back to find two doors. I go through the closest one to the right and find an opening through the back, to outside. Absolutely no walkers are anywhere near there. It's a perfect escape. I come back in the building and go find the rest.

Daryl, Maggie, and Glenn are all scavenging through the front of the store, trying to find things to bring back.

Now that I have a second to look at the store, it might be the most disheveled and messed up store I've ever seen, and I've see a lot. Racks of clothing are tipped over, clothes are very messily scattered all over the floor, and dirt and rust sits on every inch of the store. Blood is trickled on one side of the wall, with about a million hand prints and blood splats.

"I found a back door with no walkers anywhere to be found. You guys can check the other stores from there."

"Alright. Are you sure you're ok staying here by yourself?" Maggie asks concerned.

"I'm sure." I assure her.

"Alright, I'll check out the pharmacy." Daryl suggests.

"I'll go look at the baby store." Maggie says.

"And I'll check out the grocery store." Glenn says.

"Ok. Let's meet back in here in about twenty minuets. No longer." I say sternly while giving instruction.

The others nod and I show them the door in the back.

I start checking the area and grab some clothes for Charlie and me to wear.

I start looking in the back for anything useful for me to use. I find a new pair of unworn black combat boots and look back at the current ones I am wearing. They're in awful condition. They have a few holes all around and the sole is thinning. I untie my shoes and take them off. I switch my current shoes for the new shoes.

As I lace up my new shoes I hear the sound of a door opening to my left. I quickly finish zipping up my shoes and check out the noise. I walk closer to the door with my gun raised. The door creaks open a little, and then flies open. I flinch, taking a few steps back with my guns still raised.

The door reveals a young dirty and disheveled boy, looking around my age, with bleach blonde hair and dark brown eyes. It takes me a few seconds to realize who he is.

My eyes light up and widen, my gun lowers into its holster, and my mouth drops to the floor at my realization.

"Connor?!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ok so I know your going to hate me for this cliff hanger. It's kinda why I did it. Lol :P

So remember when I mentioned Connor at the beginning of this book? Yup he's coming back :)

To refresh your memories, he is the kid that Hazel was friends with when they were younger, and he liked her, but she didn't like him back in a romantic way.
