Roses (Glenn Rhee x reader)

31| Staying Put

Y/n POV

"Why is she still here?" I mumbled as Hershel was bandaging my knuckles. They were bloody and bruised. I didn't hit her so bad and she would be fine.

"Cut her some slack" Hershel said gently as he cleaned up my wounds.

"Not after her comment about my dad child" I said still in a quiet tone. "My dead child! Who does that?" I said loud enough so wherever she was in the prison she could hear. "And then she goes off acting like nothing happened with Glenn and Maggie." I ranted as Hershel finished up.

"It's how some people think. I know we are going to take down the governor. But right now you should take to Glenn" Hershel said as he patted my hand. I nodded. He was outside on watch, in one of the towers close by.

I walked into the guard tower and he was standing with his gun and watching over the field. I walked over to him and I wrapped my arms around his one and leaned my head on his shoulder.

"You okay?" I asked him as I felt him loosen up he didn't say anything for a while and then he moved other to look at me.

"It's my fault we don't have our baby right now. I should have never let you go. If I would have taken that bullet we could have them." Glenn said with tears in his eyes. His face broke my heart into a million pieces.

"Hey, stop. We can always try again you know? And our baby is in a better place where it's safe. And one day we will be safe." I said as I cupped his face and pulled it down to mine where our foreheads touching.

"I'm sorry" He said as he pulled me into a hug and wrapped his arms around me. I could feel him shake in my arms and I felt his cold tears hit my shoulder. I hugged him even tighter.

I hated that he was feeling this way and I wish I could take his pain away to make him feel better. He was my sweet boy and he didn't deserve the hate and pain.

...

Glenn was off to pick up a car for Andrea to use I stayed inside. I wasn't saying goodbye to her and she didn't even deserve to look at me.

I waited inside with Merle as he was talking my head off talking about how he told me I was so badass for doing what I did to her.

"I taught you well" Merle said as he slapped me on my back. I glared at him.

"Sorry I don't remember you teaching me about what happens when someone makes fun of your dead child" I mumbled out as I looked at him. He put his head down. I laughed slightly at him.

...

I sat in my cell on my bed. I didn't know what I was doing. A million thoughts raced through my mind. I thought about my baby and it was making me go crazy.

I started to hear Beth sing and it pissed me off even more. We weren't in a fucking musical. I put a pillow over my ears to try and make out of the noise as they held hands and went around the table saying something there thankful for.

...

Rick, Hershel and Daryl went to discuss plans to meet for the Governor. They went early to look out at the place to make sure nothing bad would be there.

I sat around feeling worried about everything, what if they tried to kill them? I felt a weird feeling and I didn't like it. I was with everyone else as Glenn was going over the plan while we sit and wait like idiots.

"Carl, come here" Glenn said as Carl walked over to him "you stash these at the landing dock. All right?" Carl nodded and walked out of the room. "Beth, put more up on the catwalk. If anyone gets pinned down, we need to make sure that they have plenty of ammo." Glenn told us. "I'll go work on the cage outside." Glenn said as he grabbed some stuff, before he could walk out of the room Merle started talking.

"What we should be doing is loading some of this firepower in a truck and paying a visit to the governor. We know where he is right now." Merle said, which was a smart idea but if it went south we were stupid and dead.

"Are you suggesting that we just go in and kill him?" Glenn asked as he held all of his stuff in his hands.

"Yeah, I am." Merle said simply.

"We told Rick and Daryl that we'd stay put" I said as I leaned on a wall and reloaded some guns.

"I've changed my mind, sis. Being on the sidelines with our brother out there ain't sitting right with me." Merle said as he shook his head, which I knew was also right.

"The three of them are right in the middle of it. No idea we're coming. They could get taken hostage or killed. A thousand things will go wrong" Glenn said as he started to walk out of the room before he was stopped again.

"And they will" Merle said as he crossed his arms over his chest.

"My dad can take care of himself" Carl said sharply.

"Sorry, son, but your dad's head could be on a pike real soon" Merle warned. I walked over to him and pushed him.

"What the fuck? Don't say that in front of Carl" I warned as I walked back over to where Glenn and Carl were. Carl walked out of the prison without saying anything.

"It's not the right move. Not now. Can't take the risk of putting them in the crossfire. That's my decision. It's final." Glenn said firmly as then he walked out of the room.

"You heard the man" I said to Merle as I poked him with one of the empty guns in the chest.
