A New World

Return Of Someone Unwanted

Miranda's pov

I am so tired of boys. I'm tired of dating. I'm tired of caring about someone deeply only to be stabbed in the back. Maggie finally came back from up north right when we were getting close. "it figures. I just can't hold on to love." I mumble, sitting in front of the door, the tears slowly slip out. Jason sits beside me scaring the crud out of me. "you scared me!" I gasp. He chuckles. "what are you crying about?" He asks. "just when me and Glenn were getting close, Maggie comes back." I grumble, crossing my arms. He smiles and puts an arm around my shoulder. I lay my head on his. "what should I do?" I ask. "fight for his hand." He says, making me laugh. "that will not happen. I don't chase men. They chase me." I gripe. "hm, well what would've happened if Jess was still here while we were falling in love, what would you have done?" He asks, making me think. "well it doesn't matter because she wasn't." I say, nervously. "well, just think what if she was?" He says. My eyes start tearing up again. "I would've fought tooth and nail to get you to be mine." I say, in full blown tears. "it's okay, it's all okay." He says, hugging me. "I wish you weren't dead." I whimper. "me too, sweet heart."

I pull her close to my chest. "honey, ya have to fight for Glenn just like ya would've fought to get me." I whisper. She nods and sniffles a little. "what would you have done if Daryl didn't die?" she asks. "I don't know, sweet girl, he died before I started developing feelings for you. But if I did, I'm sure I would've fought just as hard." I say, kissing her. "it must be hard for a big tough cowboy to talk about his feelings." she says, mockingly. I smile. "not to mention the fact that I'm dead." I grumble. "well ya just mentioned it." she says and we both laugh. She stands up. "where are you going?" I ask. "to fight for my boy." she says, smiling. I stand up too. "care to join? I'm sure it'll be an interesting show." she says. "nah, baby, I can't. They need me back." I mumble, looking over where Daryl stands. Why do they always send him to fetch me. "you'll do just fine without me." I say. She hugs me tight. "just don't forget your promise to come back and visit, okay." she cries, beggingly. "of course not!" I say, hugging her back, surprised she'd think I would. I can tell she's crying again. "what's wrong? I'll be back. I promise and a cowboy doesn't break his promises." I say, smirking. She smiles too, remembering when I first said that. "now get in there and rope ya another win." I say. She stares at me confused. I laugh slightly. "sorry dear, rodeo talk. It means go get your man." I explain. "I'll certainly be back again tomorrow." she nods and waves as I leave.

Miranda's pov

I walk inside where Maggie and Glenn are yelling at each other. "what's going on?" I ask. Maggie spins around furious. "Glenn likes you! And wants to date you!?" she yells. "that's what happens when you stay gone for four months up north. And don't lie! I saw you when we came up there to deal with the governor! You were holding hands with that guy." I grumble, angrily. I walk passed her to Glenn. "so technically Maggie it was you first." I say. I know I'm lying but it's the only thing I could think of. Maggie shakes her head, her jaw dropped. "I don't even know who you are!" Glenn gasps, a hand covering his mouth. "no Glenn she's lying!! I didn't!" she cries. "just get out!" He yells. She tried to defend herself more but he doesn't want to hear it so she leaves. I go to the bathroom to get a break and to collect myself. He appears standing against the wall, making me jump. "God, Jason are you always gonna be scaring me?" I grumble, glaring at him through the mirror. He laughs. "only when ya deserve it. That was wrong and you know it." He says. I sigh. "I don't care. It worked didn't it?" I say, annoyed. "you lied!" He says, "that's not what I wanted you to do." He says. "well, I'm a different person now. This time I'm not going to let love die. This time I'm going to do whatever it takes to keep it." I say, turning around. "this is not who you are! This is not the innocent helpless walker ass kicker I fell in love with!" He cries, grabbing my shoulders. "like I said different woman different tactics. I've changed Jason!" I shout. "no you haven't. You're still my honest little princess. And if you don't tell him the truth, this lie will eat you up inside and you know it." He whispers. I look at him defiantly. "no it won't." I say. He pulls away. "I guess you aren't the same girl I fell in love with! My girl never would've ruined a marriage for her own selfish needs." He growls, irritated. "like I said I'll do anything." I whisper sitting down. "but you should do it the right way!" He says. "don't argue with me on this!" I yell. "There's an old saying. Do it right or don't do it at all." He says, angrily.

I can't believe she lied like that! But now we're both pissed at each other. Her intense glare settles on the floor. I try to say something but she cuts me off. "just leave me alone." she whispers. "what!? You want me to leave now!?" I gripe. She nods and looks up at me with rage filled eyes. The only time I ever saw her like that was when Daryl died. "just go away!" she screams, standing up. I'm only here because of her. She shoves me! "just go away and don't come back!" she screams, tears falling down her cheeks. I'm shocked but fine she doesn't want me coming around anymore. I won't. "fine, you'll never deal with me again." I grumble leaving as fast as I can.

Miranda's pov

Oh no! Why did I just say that. "no! Jason I didn't mean that! Come back please! I'm sorry! Come back!" I shout falling to my knees, "please." but he doesn't reappear.

Jason's pov

I stand behind the closed bathroom door, hearing her yells from inside. "I can't." I whisper, disappearing.
