I feel my brother's hand leave my grip.

"Hailey you can't be near me" says Daryl seriously
"Why?" I ask
"There's a disease going around and I've been near it...it even killed Patrick" he says
"You mean the need?" I say
"Hailey" says my brother warningly
"Fine but I can't be away from my only family" I say
"I'll be fine but you have to stay away for a while" says Daryl as he picks up the shovel and start shoveling.

"Fine" I basically yell as I take off my objects bag and toss it on the ground.
"I didn't want to hang out with you anyway" I mumble angrily as I walk towards the prison.

I grip my gun but move my hand away.

"No hails don't think that" I whisper as I cross my arms uncomfortablely.

I take a deep breath and push away the wanting of death and allow myself to only think about seeing Kevin and Caiyden or maybe even Carl.

I now stand in my old cell.

Everything is still together in one piece but I notice my bed sheet thrown everywhere.

I pick them up and throw them at the corner of the cell.

I then open my bag of clothes and lay them on the bed with my child blanket merle and Daryl gave me.

I smile at all the tough looking close.

I put all my clothes in my bag and throw it towards the corner as I fix my bed with my own bed sheets.

I finish up quickly and walk out of my cell.

I turn towards the dining hall and see Carl with his gun.

I start to walk past him but I suddenly feel someone pull me back.

I fall to the ground with a thud but that's when the person picks me up.

"I'm so sorry" says the man
"Watch where your going!" I shout as I push through the guy and walk towards Carl.

I sit next to him and start talking.

"Carl, I want to-" he cuts me off
"Hailey there's no need to apologize" he says
"You never apologize" he adds as he gets up but I grab his arm
"Carl, please just talk. Your acting very strange" I say
"No I'm not acting strange. Its just that I don't want you any where near me." Says Carl seriously
"What?" I say feeling hurt
"Bye Hailey" he says plainly
He then just loosens his grip and walks away

I feel hurt inside.

"I never should have came back!" I shout as I run towards my cell and close it.

I feel empty inside.

"Why'd you have to have feelings for him!" I whisper as I sit on the floor

I close my eyes and let my self be reminded of our good memories.

Carl's pov

I turn back around towards Hailey but don't see her there anymore.

I feel pain for what I did but I had to do it. For her own good.

I take a deep breath and walk past her cell but I don't hear anything besides the sniffling.

I shake my head and feel the memories go through my head.

Flashback

I stand in her cell and lay down.

I hold the ring she threw me and feel a big pain in my chest because of what I've done to her.

I scream because of everything I caused her and before I know it. have all the covers thrown everywhere and I'm standing.

"Carl? Are you okay?" Asks my dad
"It's nothing.." I say as I start to walk away
"It's Hailey..isn't it?" Asks my dad
I nod
"She's gone and I understand your hurt but it's better for you to let her go and allow her to find her way" says my dad
"But I love her!" I basically shout
"And love can be something painful. That's why I'm telling you when she comes back...end it" says my dad as he keeps walking

I take in what he says and now what I had to do that day.

End of flashback

I get up and walk towards my cell as I lay down.

I feel sadness because of that but I just had to live with it.

Hailey's pov

The next day

I open my eyes finally noticing I fell asleep.

I get up and stretch.

"Good morning" says a voice
I look around but don't see anyone so I just walk out of the cell. Forgetting about yesterday and walking towards Caiyden and Kevin's Cell.

I go in smiling but I notice Kevin crying.

"Kevin?" I ask
He looks towards me and runs into my arms
"I thought I'd never see you again!" Crys Kevin
"Well your brother brought me back" I say as I kiss his forehead
"Caiyden likes you" sniffles Kevin
"I know" I say as I remember our kiss
"Do you like him?" Asks Kevin as he separates and wipes his eye.
"Yes" I say as I remember how I feel about him
"My brothers going to be so happy!" Shrieks Kevin as he runs off
I frown slightly as I follow him towards wherever he's going but I suddenly feel something rise in my throat.

I feel myself cough roughly as I notice blood drip on the floor out of a sudden.

I suddenly fall to the ground coughing.

"Help" I cough as I notice a shocked Caiyden and Kevin

My vision goes dark as they get closer.
