Father

Chapter 12 : My Plan

I stared at Maggie unaware how she would react to me ." Hi Maggie." She stared." Hi." Her expression was unreadable. She grabbed an glass of water for me." How's the baby ?" I asked . She gives me a small smile.

"It's kicking and growing ." She responds. I nod and look away but she pulls  up an chair ." Look at me Fergus." I look with teary eyes." I'm so . So . Sorry Maggie if I would've known what was gonna ...-."

Maggie cut me off by hugging me and I just sobbed into her arms she wiped my tears." Fergus I never blamed you . I looked at her." Really?" She smiled and nodded. "Yeah If anything I blamed myself but now I know it wasn't no one's fault but Negan's."

I agreed as I looked down. She gently lift my chin." You know how this ends right?" I thought about it for the first time he was my Father but he was an crappy one but he did try sometimes and I still loved him but I knew what all he's done could'nt go unpunished.

"My Dad has to Die." She nodded in agreement." He stopped being ypur Daddy when he hurt you and tried to steal Jade from you I'm sorry fregud I am but try to remember the good memories understand your Dad is gone." I accepted that I had no say on if my Dad died.

She helped me and gently put me in an wheelchair." Let's go see the others yeah ?" I nodded. We wheel through the hall of the hiltop house and soon we were out the door as we got closed I noticed an girl wearing her regular jean and flannel ...jade .

"Hold on Maggie." She halted." Are you sure ?" I nodded. I got up as I yelled ."JADE. JADE!" She turned her and ran to me as we got closer my eyes got blurry suddenly I felt an body crash into me her hair smelling like strawberries and her peach body spray over taking my nose.

"Fergus I knew you were gonna make it I knew." I smiled." I almost did'nt ." She paused and held my face and I did hers I did something I ain't done in weeks....I kissed her. She hugged me as hugged her I felt at home .

"I thought I could let you go I honestly did but I can't ...I love you Jade Grimes ." She brought her forehead to mine." I love you too Fergus Smith." We just stood there and hugge until we both hiss through our teeth.

"Maybe we should lay off on being passionate for little bit after all I'm pregnant we both just got shot ." I smiled." I agree but don't make me wait too long because I can't to do many things to you ." Jade rolled her eyes.

"Just like your Father with the sex drive." I shrugged." Well ....about that what did he react to me being shot?" Jade responds as where walking ." He was an mess he was definitely beside himself he said things that I never heard him say let alone no one he has an soft spot for you."

I scoffed. "He never will admit to me ." Jade grabs my hand." He does love you I know he's never shown it but he does care for you he admitted he screwed up as an parent and you deserved better but he doesn't hate you."

I shrugged." I wanna hear from him." Jade nods." So, I he letting us stay?" Jade shakes her head." You maybe but me he said he'll be back to pick me up at the end of the day." I signed." He's not gonna let us be together ..what if..."? Jade looks at me ." Yeah...what if what ?"

"I have an plan let's go talk to everyone else."

......

We reached the group and I saw Daryl I ran to him like a boy excited to see his Dad." Daryl !" He hugged. "Yer awake and alive." I smiled." Yep well I almost died how many time Rick?" Rick scrathed his head." 31 times." I looked at him crazy.

"With in  31 times? "He nods." Jade, lacey, and your sister would'nt leave your side." I cussed in scottished. Jade looks at me ." What was that ?"  I shrugged." Damn it Grandpa your bad habits are rubbing off in me even in the grave."
