The Farmer's Daughter (The Walking Dead)

//Chapter Three\\

Carl's P.O.V

Suddenly there was screaming and yelling, Riza got up and ran towards the screaming, I quickly followed her.

The screaming came from a cell and the yelling came from four prison guys that survived.

Riza started to scream/cry as well as she saw Hershel. He was missing half of his left leg and bleeding out.

There were lack of supplies, medical supplies to be specific, and Hershel being old and all... His life is slowly slipping away.

I don't know if it was a natural instinct or something but I grabbed Riza and hugged her. We were the same height so she just placed her chin on my shoulder.

She wasn't crying as much as her sisters, but she was still crying.

"WE NEED BANDAGES!" Someone yelled as Daryl and T-Dog ran somewhere.

I pulled away from the hug

"Hey Riza suck up your tears, I have an idea." I said as she lightly giggled.

"Jerk, you could have asked me to stop crying." She said as I released her from our hug.

"I'm sorry but listen, your father, Hershel, is missing half of his leg." I said as Riza frowned, "But I remember my dad taking me to a prison before, and the prison there's an infirmary or something like that, it's has things there could save your dad." I said as I took a knife and keys that was laying on the table and took Riza's hand.

"H-Hey where are we going?" She asked as I stopped in front of a door that leads to another room or to another block.

"To the infirmary, were you not listening to anything I was saying?" I asked.

"Your crazy." She said.

"Thank-you." I answered sarcastically while opening the door.

Riza made sure to close the door quietly so it wouldn't catch any attention from the group or the walkers that might be in here.

I quickly grabbed a bag and started to fill it with anything that could save Hershel.

Suddenly I heard a thud.

"Riza?!" I whispered worriedly.

"I'm fine it was just a walker." She answered after a while.

The room was quite big, five windows, and corpses laying on the floor. To be honest I was scared, I quickly found Riza, and went back to Hershel.

Riza's P.O.V

"Mom." Carl said as he taps Lori's shoulder, she turned around and gasped.

"Carl!" She said with anger, "Where did you get this?!"

"In the Inf-" "It doesn't matter, you cannot go somewhere else with out anyone with you." She said as Carl walked away.

He didn't rat me out.

I looked at Lori then ran off to find Carl.

"Carl?" I said looking into every cell.

"C-Carl?" I question wondering if he's still in the same block, he can't just run off!

Probably he's outside wait for someone to go comfort him, even though we haven't clear the other blocks there is a small possibility that he's in the other blocks. Dammit Car-

"Riza." Carl said as he stepped in front of me.

"There you are y-you scared me!" I exclaimed as I lightly punched him in the arm.

"Why-" "Never mind, just don't run off like that please." I said before walking away to see my dad.

"Riza." Carl said placing his hand on my shoulder.

"Yeah?" I said turning around.

Carl's P.O.V

She turned around to face me.

Dammit, what do I do now? We're still young, and I don't want to ruin our relation ship... Dammit.

"I- uh... It's um... If you need me I'll be with my dad." I said as she nodded her head, but when she did she seem sad.

"Ugh." I groaned.

~~~

"Dad how do you know when you like someone?" I asked as he sat beside me on my bunk.

"Well your only eleven and I wouldn't expect that question until you were thirteen or fourteen but explain her." Dad said with a smirk.  

"Well, she's pretty, young, smart, her eyes are a wonderful colour of brown, and although she's turning ten soon she acts mature. But there's this one thing about her that makes her so unbelievably... wonderful." I said, whispering 'wonderful'.

"Listen Carl, I get that you like her, and I'm okay with that. Hershel not so much, but listen, she's still young. Be friends with her for now okay?" He said as I nodded my head.

"Carl, you got to learn how to read girls. Riza needs you right now, even though she doesn't show it, she's screaming at the top of her lungs for someone to be with her, more specific she needs you by her side." Dad said.

"How do you know that?" I asked.

"I saw everything from the moment you ran away and she ran after you to when you were about to say something and the sad look on her face when she walked away." Dad answered.

"Oh." Was all I could said as I slowly parted from him.
