Walking dead

No Way Out

I'm on my needs and Rick comes up to me, "he's ok, he's ok. Something happens but, he's okay, he's alive." I look up at him and he's covered in a walker book Carol comes out and hands me, Dj. " Come on."

I sit outside the infirmary with everyone else waiting for Carl to wake up. When eventually Rick comes out, " he woke up!" he says and that's the most excited I've seen him since the rain.

Time skip to ( who the hell knows when Because this show is so unspec)

We are all in the house after Carl is better and I'm downstairs with the twins on their playmats. *think, think, thunk* "I'm going to hit him," I say to Beth because I know that the thunking is Carl beating that stupid fucking ball against the wall.

I grab Carl before he leaves. My hands are on his shoulders, "I love you but, if you keep bouncing that ball I'm going to kill you, okay?" " ok," he says laughing and heading out the door. " I love you" I call before he can take off "Love you too" he calls back before the door can fully shut behind him.

"Hay Rick, if you guys see a bouncer that would be great, if not don't go looking for it or anything." "yeah, we can do that, no problem." After Carl comes back from her morning, I'm pretending to be a nice white woman, walking. I take off to the community pantry.

" where are you going?" " I've got a class, 'how to make more with less,'" "Sounds interesting," Carl says picking up Beth. " hopefully," I say before leaving the house.

"Ok," I start looking around at the people in the small crowd. I grab a can of beans and pasta as well as some saus "Follow me, ladies and gents" I say this although I know all the people here are women.

I'm on the kitchen side of the island and all the women are on the other side. " so if you take the pasta and boil it one noodle at a time, which sounds grueling but is, unfortunately, a good way to save water. Then take the beans, these are kidney beans but you can use practically any bean except for refried beans. Then you frame them and chop, not mash. Then add a bit of water to your pasta, no need to water it down just add a tablespoon at a time You tell it's thin enough that there is more but it's not so thin it's Grose."

Once the class is done I go back to the house Beth is sitting there holding herself up on the table I set my backpack down, and scoop her up. "Good job. You get some catching up to do little man," I say down at DJ.

Later that night cleaning up around the house I pass by the front window and see Carl and Michone hugging I smile, because for a moment car has a mom again, and he's not so lonely, and he's got me but, I know what it's like to not have a mom, because I lost my mom a long time before the apocalypse. Carl comes in with Judith and puts her to bed then helps me put the twins to bed.

" how was your day?" I ask taking off my hands and shirt. " pity good actually, you?" " Good," I say slipping on one of Carl's T-shirts which hits to about my mid-thiy. I climb into bed, " love you," I say before drifting off to sleep.

The twins mostly sleep through the night but they do wake up sometimes, so when I wake to Carl getting out of bed that's what I expect but there's no crying. " what are you doing" I ask Grogaly but I don't register that he could be going to the bathroom. " stay here love," he says as grabs his gun.

I do not obey him and grab the knife on my dresser. Carl and I creep thou the hall until we get to the corner. I'm behind Carl who has his back pressed against the wall gives me a nod then flies around the corner cocking his gun. "What the hell are you doing in our house?"
