immune..? (TWD) BOOK 1

chapter 19

since I was done I sat in my cell and tried to get a moments of peace.

"Y/N, HES STOPPED BREATHING" I hear maggie yell

I jumped out of bed and ran into hershels room.

maggie moved out of the way.

shit.

I pressed down on his chest making sure to go at least 2 inches deep. I debated with myself for a second. I looked behind me and saw maggie and beths face.

I put parted hershels lips and gave him air. then I went back to pushing down on his chest. I repeated the process until woke up and scared this shit out of me. I jerked my hands back and placed a hand on my gun.

I looked at hershel and he passed right back out, but he was breathing again.

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

I heard ricks shoes hit the floor over and over again and I knew he was headed this way.

"hershel stopped breathing. y/n saved him." carl said

"it's true." glenn said

I was sitting at the end of the bed with my head resting on my arm that was on the bed.

"still no fever." lori said

I stood up and left hershels cell. if they needed me again I'm sure they would call me.

I moved the blanket that was covering the frame of the cell door and I went inside. and I laid down on my bed.

saving someones life sure is tiring.

no wonder why some doctors hate their jobs. they don't get home until late just in case someone needs emergancy attention. that had to be annoying at times.

I closed my eyes for a second and carl walked in and laid down next to me.

"he's awake" carl said

"I'm glad." I said

"you're not going to go see him?" carl asked

"I'm tired, so not at the moment. but tell him I said I'm glad hes okay." I said

"I don't think you've ever told me, or maybe you have. you just gave me your first name and when I asked about your last name you brushed me off. what is your last name, y/n?." carl asked

"thats not something you should worry about." I said

"come onnnnn, I haven't asked since we were at camp." carl said

"fine, smith. my last name is smith." I said

"I thought it would be cooler than mine." carl said playfully

"it is." I said

"nah. its not." carl said

"whatever, but you know its cooler." I said

"maybe a little." carl admitted

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

its been a few weeks and rick and a few others went outside to clear the courtyard up. I was told to stay with lori and make sure she got everything.

it was pretty boring, I was reading my book and lori was just laying down.

"y/nnnn" carl dragged out my name a little

I rolled my eyes and went back to reading. lori chuckled and looked at me

"why do you keep rereading that book?" lori asked

"well, its teaching me about the body. you're pregnant and hershel will probably need help. you told me that you had to get a c-section with carl which means its more than likely you'll have to have one again with this baby." I said

"do I ever tell you how smart you are?" lori said

"no, and theres no need to." I said

carl stepped in the room and plopped down on my lap.

"dude." I said

carl raised an eyebrow and looked over and read some of my book.

"what are you doing?" carl asked

"reading and watching over your mom. something you should be doing as well." I said

carl hummed and looked over to his mother. he started talking to her and I pushed carl off my lap.

"why did you do thatt" carl whined

"because, you didn't ask and I'm clearly trying to read." I said

carl rolled his eyes, he stood up and leaned over my shoulder so that he could see what I was reading about.

"nosy ass." I whispered under my breath
