faded, carl grimes

chapter 8

after everyone welcomed glenn back, rick drug Carl off you assumed to talk to him about leaving. then maggie and glenn came over to you and ron.

maggie started to talk but glenn shushed her.
"hey ron we gotta have a talk with y/n, you can come by later okay?" glenn said sweetly
"sure, bye y/n!" ron said giving you one last quick hug before walking away.
"let's go y/n" glenn said turning your body towards the house, him and maggie walking beside you.

once you got in the house you sat down on the couch and you knew you were in for it.
"wanna tell him what you've been doing while he was gone?" maggie started
"oh for fucks sake Maggie!" you yelled
"language!" glenn said
"i can't do this glenn! she's out of control!" maggie yelled
"i am not!" you retorted
"y/n, go to your room. let us talk this out? please?" glenn said in a caring voice
"fine" you said as you got up and ran up stairs slamming your door behind you. you sat on your bed and listened to their conversation

"glenn! your not listening!" maggie said
"i heard y-" she cut him off
"she was in ron's bed! she ran off and slept with him!" she said
"im sure if she said-" she cut him off once again
"glenn shes 16, she's gonna lie!" she said
"y/ns trustworthy, and she's not a kid. she's grown." he said back
"they were kissing, and she's been treating me like shit!" she yelled at him.

hearing maggie yell at Glenn made your blood boil. no one went looking for him, but you. and he's getting yelled at for your actions as soon as he got back? she's crazy you thought.

"glenn, i know you love her and your the only person she has but-" he cut her off this time
"she has all us maggie. she trusts me more, i was close with L-lilly before s-she" he stopped.
"im sorry glenn. but we've gotta do something about her, maybe we could send her to stay with Rick for a few days?" she suggested
"i-" she stopped him
"after all, her and carl were so close and he was there for her when lilly disappeared." she said. the way she tossed your moms name around like it was nothing made you sick.

and send you to stay with rick? was she really crazy? sending you away from glenn? why was she like this.

"y/n! come down here please!" glenn yelled up to you and you walked downstairs.
"yeah?" you said giving maggie a look
"will you please pack a few bags" maggie said looking back at you
"no I'm-" glenn stopped you
"just for a few days y/n. i promise, and you only have to sleep there. i don't care where you are during the day" he said
"fine. but maggie can't make my decisions for me" you said sternly
"she won't" glenn said looking at maggie.

great. things just started going great with ron and you believed the plan to make carl jealous was working, but now you have to stay with him? how the hell was that gonna go.
