Ride or die

Michonne took Judith to Oceanside, Ethane went to, he told me that he wanted to go over their a few more times. 

While they were gone Rosita and Nathan stayed in charge while I was in Hilltop. I was informed that the girl that Ethane hit with car had woken up. She was in a comma for a year. I tried talking to her but that didn't go well. 

Look, all I want to know is if your in a group, or have a family out there. I asked. 

And didn't I say go screw you self. The women said. 

Listen, I know what you are doing, your playing the tough girl act. I said. 

Yeah, I don't don't really give a shit, about your backstory. The girl said. 

Mae than came in the room. 

Alright, look there's two ways we can do this, you either a tell us why you had blood all over your face or we can keep you in here for the rest of your life. Mae said. 

Well than my ass well get comfrey. The girl said. 

---------------------------------------------------------------

Later that day Mae and I we talking about what to do with her. 

We have to keep her in their. Mae said. 

How about we wait for the others to come. I said. 

Quinn, I will do right by my people, and if it means keeping her in there than so be it. Mae said. 

After Mae and I talked I went by Alden's, I saw that he was carrying the baby that Earl had. 

You know you would make a great dad. I said. 

Yeah, well this is Earl's baby, not mine. Here hold him for a minuet. Alden said as he gave me the baby. 

Once I held the baby, I felt a feeling of protection. 

What's his name? I asked. 

It's Adam. Alden replied. 

Adam, he's a cute boy. I said.

It was late when I got back to Alexandria, as I was on my way to check on RJ, I heard noises coming from Siqqiq's house. I ran inside only to find Siqqiq dead, and Danite knocked out. I turned and saw Rosita being comforted by Nathan while holding her daughters. 

Later that day we buried Siqqiq. Rosita and Nathan were sitting by his grave. I told Manga to call it in. 

People were scared, they were looking to me for answers. Bub I didn't know what I was doing. 

Quinn. I heard RJ. 

He buddy, you okay? I asked. 

Yes, Mommy wants to talk to you. RJ said

I took the walkie. 

Hey Quinn. I heard Michonne's voice.  

Hey, you okay? I asked. 

Not really, listen I met this friend, and I'm going to help him get home, so Ethane is taking Judith back. And I want you to look after them for me. Michonne said. 

I will, I promise. I said. 

Quinn, I love you, and I want you to know that your my kid. That's why I'm trusting you with your Judith and RJ. Michonne said. 

Why are you saying this like it's a good bye? I asked. 

It's not. I just wanted you to know. Michonne said. 

Okay, well I'll see you in a few days. I said. 

Yeah, in a few days. Michonne said. 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Once Judith got back, RJ and I all had dinner together. It was weird not having it with Michonne, but Judith  always knew what to do when people were sad. 

You know, I saw a library today. Judith said. 

Oh really, what kind of books did you find? I asked. 

All sorts of different books. Judith said. 

That's great. I said. 

RJ, than started throwing food at us. We all started laughing together. I knew, and in that moment I wished it could be like this, be I had to face the fact that Alpha is still out there waiting for her time to strike.
