Safe haven, Rick Grimes

095. I LOVE ALL OF YOU, SO MUCH

Chapter ninety five

"I love all of you, so much."

Having been on the road oceanside, a few others had met up with them, as Scarlett was still driving the wagon, Luke was whistling while Judith was writing, Rick was taking a nap, as Caroline and Daryl played this hand slap game, Scott was walking ahead "whoa." he said, as Scarlett stopped the wagon, Scott crouched down and then stood up, walking over to them "what is it?" Scarlett asked "I'm not as good a tracker as Daryl but those prints look recent and clean, not dragging like a walker." Scott shared "well we know the whisperers don't travel alone, so it's someone who's been out here on their own possibly." Scarlett shared.

"Could be one of their scouts." Scott shared "well the longer we take to get their, the quicker one or more of them will find us. But if there's only one if he comes close.." Scarlett shared "I'll shoot him." Daryl and Caroline said, as Scarlett turned to them "I meant more along the lines of being as quiet as possible. And I'm not talking to the children." she shared, looking at Luke, she turned back to the front and pulled on the reigns, as they continued down the road "I take no offense. I am here as a representative of hilltop, as a soldier of peace and justice." Luke shared.

As Rick sat up "didn't you two say something about his.." he said "girlfriend." Daryl and Caroline said "who's name is Jules." Judith said "what? Stop it." Luke said, as Scarlett chuckled "what were you whistling before?" Judith asked "I'm glad you asked me that. I'm whistling one of the most whistle able, is that even a word?" Luke asked "no." Scarlett told him "it is now. Whistle able sections of rachmaninoff's variations on a theme of paganini. It's like one of the greatest pieces of music ever. It's my favorite. And I can only hear it in my head nowadays." Luke shared "I wanna write that down, but you've gotta spell it for me." Judith shared.

As Luke took her book and pen "I got ya, what do you got here?" Luke asked "I record everything that happens to us. Our stories for the future." Judith shared "yes because we as a family will fondly look back on the time where we were buried alive." Daryl shared "killed before we were even born which for the record Rick would mean you would've never been born." Caroline shared "everything that makes mommy cry?" Rick asked, and when he did, Scarlett's face fell "that sounds dark. But maybe I can help you out. If you wanna do a great personal history, you've gotta read a little. And this road leads right though waterford, right? And I remember they had a really excellent library there. Maybe we wan to stop and pick up some inspiration. What do you say, ma?" Luke asked.

"Nope. This trip is for one destination and one destination only." Scarlett shared "come on, please, mom? I've read almost every book in alexandria." Judith shared "I prefer comic books." Daryl shared "comic books, huh?" Luke asked "our big brother Carl had a lot of them." Caroline shared "well I don't know if the library will have comic books but I think we could all find something, huh little duck?" Scarlett asked, as Judith put her head down "mom." she told her, as Scarlett smiled, continuing down the road.

Making it to the library, Scott walked in first as Scarlett followed behind holding onto her axe, Judith, Caroline, Daryl and Rick followed right behind her along with Luke, where there didn't seem to be any walkers as they began to look around, Daryl grabbed a book off the shelf "so this place is filled with books with no pictures." he shared, flipping through it, Scarlett chuckled russian english dictionary for Eugene. Satelite parts." Judith shared, as Scarlett looked over at her "okay, smart one." Luke told her, taking the book "I'm gonna go check out the music section. Just cause, you know, we're here." he told them.

"So he can find a love song for this girlfriend." Caroline said, as her and the kids laughed, Scarlett laughed with them "I'll go see if there's anything worth taking." Scott shared, as the two walked off, Judith turned walking to the right, Scarlett made sure the rest of the kids followed her as she followed behind, they passed a couple shelves and as they did, Scarlett saw the wizard of book on one of them and started to think about Rick "hilltop to Scarlett. Are you there?" Magna's voice came through the walkie, Scarlett pulled it out of her holster and pressed down on the button "I'm here." she said, letting go of it.
