"GUTS."︎
────୨ৎ────────୨ৎ────
THE SECOND THAT JULIET PUSHED RICK GRIMES INSIDE THE BACKDOOR OF THE STORE—which was kind of like the temporary hideout for her and the group—He was attacked, pulled away and shoved into a stack of boxes and straight into a wall.
"You son of a bitch! We oughtta kill you!" It was Andrea, shoving a gun that Dale, one of the group members back at their camp had given her.
Juliet likes Dale, but God...
Why would he hand her the gun?
She's been using it none stop, trying to make use of it somehow even though she doesn't know how to use it.
Juliet had to physically stop herself from not slapping her hand on her forehead as she realized the safety was still on.
Andrea continued to scream at him about the fact that he's the reason they're all doomed while the rest of the group tried to calm her down.
Glenn and Juliet glanced at each other, silently regretting their heroic actions.
"Come on, ease up." Jacqui sighed, earning a glare from Andrea.
"Ease up?! You're kidding me, right?! We're dead because of this stupid asshole."
"Andrea, I said back the hell off." The sort of leader of the trip here, Morales, ordered, "Well, pull the trigger? Since you're so tough."
Andrea's tear welled eyes, turned to look at him...The gun in her hand fidgeting under her grip and with a huff, she pulls it back.
Fucking finally...
"We're dead...All of us...Because of you." Andrea's voice breaks as she backs away, glaring at Rick through her teary eyes.
Juliet looks at Glenn, pretends to check her pulse and then shrugs with a humerous grin on her face.
Glenn snorts and suddenly all eyes are on him.
He chokes on his own spit, shaking his head, speechless.
"I don't understand...Why are we dead?" Rick's clueless voice pulls them away from the youngest two in the group.
Morales took in an annoyed breath and grabbed his shoulder before ushering him into the store.
"Look, we came into the city to scavenge supplies," Morales explained, pushing Rick through the hallway, "You know what the key to scavenging is? Surviving. You know the key to surviving? Sneaking in and out, tiptoeing. Not shooting up the streets like its the O.K. Corral!"
Once they're in the store and Juliet sees the geeks surrounding the building through the glass doors...Her heart sinks to her stomach at the sight.
"Every geek for miles around heard you popping off rounds." T-Dog said. He was probably the only one of them who wasn't Glenn that Juliet liked talking to.
