Carl's POV~

I still felt terrible about what I said to Callie the other day. I was sitting on my bunk when dad came in to ask me to get the girls in the guard tower for dinner. "Guys, it's getting dark. Rick, I mean dad said that it's time for dinner." I climbed down the tower and walked, more like jogged to block C

Callie's POV~

As Beth and I walked through the heavy doors of block C, all I got were stares. I sat down in between Carl and Beth and decided to end the awkward silence that was eating me alive. (No pun intended). "Thanks for taking me in. I really appreciate it." "No problem Callie. We hope you feel safe here." Rick said with a smile.

I noticed some new people at the table. Their names were Glenn, Maggie, Hershel, Tyreese, and Sasha. They were each having their own conversations about random things, when Daryl brought in the deer and canned beans. "Yum!" I thought. Usually I would be creeped out by the dead deer on my plate, but I haven't eaten in days so I didn't complain.

"Can I have all of your attention?" Rick exclaimed throughout the cafeteria. "We have a new guest staying with us. Her name is Callie Esterguard." I smiled and waved at everyone. "Hi, I'm really happy to be here."

After meeting the other survivors, I walked back to my shared cell with Carl with Carl right on my heels. "Look, Callie, I really didn't mean to make you upset. I was just trying to make a conversation with a really gorgeous girl." "I forgive you." I mumbled out the corner of my mouth.

"Wait what?" Carl asked. "I forgive you." I said a little louder for him to hear. "And thanks by the way. For calling me gorgeous. I haven't heard that in ages." I stepped out of our cell and ran to Beth's ready to spill everything.
