~Ally's P.O.V~

I couldn't move, my whole body was sore, I saw the walkers surrounding the bus. I heard screams, then they stopped. Evan came up behind me and put his arm around me, I hugged him tight, crying. I felt his hand rubbing my back. It comforted me and I let go.

"We need to leave, lets get the excursion," Evan spoke softly as he grabbed my hand.

I nodded and squeezed his hand as we walked. We got in the excursion, it was hidden in the woods. There were no walkers around us, Evan started the engine and we drove off. We drove to my old house and we took a break, parking in the garage. We walked down into the cave, my blood still sitting on the ground by the pond. I walked over to the pond and sat down with my feet in the water.

"Ally it's going to be okay," Evan spoke gently. "You have me...I hope I have you..."

I faced him and grabbed his cheek gently and kissed him softly.

"You'll always have me Evan," I said blushing.

Evan just stared at me, his face bright red, it reminded me of a strawberry. It made him look cuter than usual.

"A-ally...why...what was that for...." he spoke in a whisper. "Y-you hate me..."

"No I actually don't sweetie...I never hated you, I've never truly hated somebody." I giggled slowly grabbing Evan's hand. "I've liked you since you saved me, you could've let the man kill me. Told everyone you couldn't find me, why didn't you. You came looking for me, you saved me from that man, you stopped me from killing myself, you didn't leave me you helped me the whole time. Why Evan, I was horrible to you yet you cared."

"The first time I saw you, after I....hurt you...I umm...I wanted to get to know you...when you killed your....you looked hurt, about to cry...I felt bad for not asking if you were okay," he blushed leaning in close. "Ally...I need you...otherwise I don't know how to get through this. You made the group stronger, we saw you as leader. To me you still are.

Our foreheads were pressed together, our noses touched, I felt safe with Evan. I've never felt safe with a guy before, he gives me butterflies everytime he speaks or when he looks at me. I yawned and Evan giggled as we separated, we sat face to face, his expression was soft.

"Lets go to bed Ally," he picked me up and carried me inside.

I got out the extra bed, it was clean and not all ripped up like then other one, this one is brand new. Evan put it down on the ground and grabbed some blankets. He threw them in the bed and climbed in. He grabbed my hand and pulled me ontop of him and both of us blushed. I kissed him and then rolled over into my spot, he wrapped his arms around me and pulled me close.

-Two hours later-

I wake up, my heart beating fast, tears streaming down my face. I saw them, in the bus, with the walkers, I sat up and Evan woke up.

"Honey...you okay," he said sleepily as he pulled me into him. "Shhhh Ally I'm here tell me what's wrong."

"I miss them...so much," I snuggled close to him, listening to his heart beat.

"Honey...you dreamed about it didn't you,"he sounded disappointed. "I'm here, I know we're not officially together but...Ally if anything is ever bothering you tell me. Ally....I...I love you..."

"I love you too sweetie," I said blushing. "If you are brave and ask me out you'll get a surprise."

"Okay...Ally Spring will you go out with me," he was smiling.

"Evan Kingston of course I'll go out with you," I kissed him and he kissed me back.

I felt Evan move, he laid me on my back and he looked down at me..

"Sleep babygirl," his hand caressed my face as I started to fall asleep. "Goodnight babygirl I love you."

"Goodnight sweetie I love you too." I said as I fell asleep.
