After a long night at the Grimes, Shane and I had been getting at each other throats all night due to me failing my Spanish test, he started going off on me as we got into the car so it didn't take long for me to quickly exit the car and head back towards Ricks."Madison Nicole Walsh if you don't get your ass back into the car, you will be praying to Jesus by the end of the night" I continued to ignore him until I reached Rick and Loris door, I knocked softly hoping someone would hear, and thankfully Rick did. He looked shocked to see me back so quickly but opened the door for me "Hey honey why are you back her-"

That's when Shane pulled into the driveway, he looked like he wanted to tear  my head off as he rushed over apologizing for me disrupting their night but all Rick could say was "Madison's staying here tonight. You are at each others throats, I don't work tomorrow, you do." Once Shane started to open his mouth "I said what I fucking said Shane." My brother just walked off, it was clear he didn't care about where she was tonight...much like every single day and night.

Present Time
It had only been a day since Glenn left and I was already bored out of my mind. Glenn Rhee keeps me sane in this mess, luckily I had Amy. Her sister went on the supply run with Glenn and some others. "Why do you think Blake likes to sit by the lake so much?" The curious girl asked me as we were sitting on top of the rv taking in the breathtaking view, which made my attention turn towards the clearly upset Dixon boy.

It had been a few days since Blake had seen his older brother Daryl and with Merle gone, he seemed more angry at the world than normal. I felt sad for the poor guy, I turned towards Amy saying "I think he's lonely, you know since his brothers are gone? Maybe we should try to get him to hang out??" She laughed at my comment, "Madison, he hasn't talked to us besides the first day of camp. It's been weeks since then, he probably won't answer us. I mean hey, if you want to try give it a shot but i'm not going to.." Amy said climbing down to the ground. I am going to give it a shot.

I always fucking forget walking down to the lake is a bitch. Along the trail, I noticed Carl. As soon as he noticed me, he started jumping up and down smiling saying"Madison! Madison! Do you want to go to the lake with me?! My mom won't let me go without someone!" I giggled and nodded telling him to lead the way.

I don't think I have ever seen Carl run faster, it had been a while since he had been this happy. Okay don't let him distract you from the "mission" Madison. Get the Dixon boy to talk.

I was nervous to just walk up and talk to Blake so I just walked up and sat next to him. He looked surprised to see me, he honestly looked like he wanted to rip my head off because of it "Madison right? Why the fuck are you here? Leave me the hell alone." He scoffed while he stared at the water. I was taken back by such a remark but I decided to talk to him anyways, "Listen Blake. I know you don't really like talking to the other people in the camp but we are both 17, we got to stick together you know? Even if you are an asshole to everyone including me." He looked angrier that I had said anything to him but he just sighed and said "i'm not 17..i'm 18. my birthday was 3 days ago, but no one even remembered or cared to."

My heart ached for the boy. I couldn't imagine if someone had forgotten my birthday, let alone my 18th birthday..."Don't think I like you just because I told you this. I still dislike everyone at camp.I just.." he sighed again before continuing "I just want Daryl to get back from his hunting trip okay? I don't care about Merle,.he left whenever our dad started hitti-" but he paused and just looked at the rocked below us.

Was he going to say hitting him? Were the Dixon boys abused by their father before the outbreak? Ugh this poor boy just needs a hug or a swim, something. So I did just that, well tried to at least. As I looked over at Carl playing near the women who were currently doing laundry "Hey, how about we go for a swim? Get your mind off of it." He just laughed a little and said "Right. Now we are best friends just because the Chinese boy is gone right? I don't fucking think so." He got up and started walking off.

He's Korean asshole.
