Sicily had run Spoons and was currently feeding him whenever Glenn approached her.

"Glenn I am really not in the mood."

"Yeah I... kinda figured but your dad is nowhere to be found."

"What?" 

" We can't find your dad. Rick and I are going to look for him."  Her jaw drops.

"I'm coming with." Glenn nods and lead her to the car. Rick doesn't spare any questions as they pile into the car. They make it out on the road before rick asks.

"You sure you're okay coming out here?" He eyes her in the rearview mirror.

"Pretty damn sure, I've been out here with Spoons a couple of times. I think i know it okay."

He nods

"Just don't want ya freezing up when you see something bloody."

"You don't gotta worry about me."

A pregnant pause. Glenn clears his throat.

"So how is Daryl?"

" You wanna keep your tongue boy?" She snaps her head towards him, crossing her arms as she leans against the window. He lets out a snort.

The car comes to a slow roll as they browse the town, eventually seeing the local bar. 

"He doesn't drink but after last night we might as well try." She leans on the center console, looking between the two men. 

"If not, we can tear the whole town apart... he wouldn't go far. " Rick says, kicking open his door, Sicily follows him closely. All three whipping their heads to make sure no wondering walkers are lurking. Or worse, people. 

All the enter the bar cautiously, rick keeping a hand close to Sicily. Glenn watching their entrance. They lay eyes on the man of the hour.

Sicily makes way by quickly taking a seat beside him.

"Daddy... what are you doing?" She asks slowly, disappointment laced in her voice.

"If you came here to lecture a grown man you can go on back home."

"Only if you come with." Rick says, circling to the man's left.

"Who else is with you?"

"Just Glenn, Daddy."

"Maggie sent him?"

"He volunteered. He's good like that."

" How many have you had?" Rick questions."

"Not enough."

" Why don't we finish this up back at home?" Sicily tries to take the bottle from him, he grabs her wrists eyeing her. She sighs and walks back towards Glenn. She knows he won't listen to jack that she has to say.

" Beth collapsed, she's in some catatonic state." Sicily's head whips towards Glenn. His head turns slightly, and he guides her to a corner. Not to disturb Rick's progress. 

"Shes just in shock, we didn't want to worry you, and we knew we would need your help with Herschel." 

Her face contorts in anger.

"Beth comes before my father's hissy fit. You ever keep something like this from me again i swear to God-"

"Shes with Maggie, she'll be okay." He places his hands on the sides of her arms, waiting for some response. She nods and lets out an exhale. He nods with her, bringing her into an embrace.

" You can't blame yourself for holding out hope." Ricks conversation is heard. 

"Hope?" Herschel smiles.
