The Farmer's Daughter (The Walking Dead)

//Chapter Eight\\

Riza's P.O.V

I walked up to Carl knowing that I'm not suppose to be with him.

"Carl did you kill someone?" I asked a little angry. I trust him and I know he wouldn't do that so why would he?

I should make wild assumptions, I don't know his story yet.

"No! I would never kill someone!" He said shaking his head.

"Then what happened at the farm?" I asked confused.

"How do you know-" "So you did!" I exclaimed stepping back.

"No, no, it's not like that!" Carl said as he grabbed my shoulders.

"Listen please," he said as I looked at him. "Shane turned into a walker, my dad, Rick, shot him! I killed walker Shane!" He said.

"But you didn't kill him?" I asked as he nodded his head.

"I promise I would never kill anyone, just to protect myself!" He said as he held out his pinky.

"Okay." I smiled as we linked pinkies.

~~~

The days went by, then weeks, months, season, a year, and before I knew it Carl and I turned eleven and twelve, another year passed and I was twelve and he was thirteen.

One thing that I was never prepared for was puberty.

~~~

After explaining Carl's side of the misunderstanding he allowed me to hang out with Carl.

"Riza?" Carl said his voice changing.

I looked at him in a wired way. His voice just went from his normal voice to a low pitch voice.

I started to laugh at him. "H-Hey that's not funny!" He exclaimed as his voice went from low to high.

"Riza!" He said as I laughed harder when he said my name.

"Fine I'm leaving!" He said walking away.

"Carl okay, I'm sorry!" I said calming down.

"Yeah yeah." He said walking back.

"Awe come on I said I'm sorry." I said as he looked at me.

"And I forgive you." I tried really hard not to laugh as his voice changed once again.

"What's going on with you?" I asked as got off of my bed.

"Let's go outside." He said as I followed him.

"Okay now can you tell me what's wrong with you?" I asked once we were outside.

"I don't know. My dad said I'm going through something called puberty. For guys we grow taller, out voice change, we get hair, and something call pimples and acne." He answered.

"Oh..." I said, "Does girls get puberty?" I asked as he shrugged his shoulders.

"I don't know. Asked Beth or Maggie, thy might know." He said as his voice changed again.

"Okay." I said as I excused myself and went to find Maggie or Beth.

~~~

"Maggie?" I said as I found her.

"Yes Riza?" She said as he put her knife down.

"What happens to girls when they go through puberty?" I asked as I heard a snicker from behind me.

~~~

"So?" Carl asked as I sat down beside him.

"I want to stay at the age of twelve for the rest of my life." I said looking at the sky.

"Why? What does girls go though?" He asked.

"You'll have your turn to make fun of me." I said as he gave me a confused look.

It was silent for awhile, it was nice, until a sudden crash was heard.

Standing up, Carl and I ran to the front gate.

"Dammit!" Carl said as he grabbed my wrist and dragged me inside the prison before anything happened.

As we ran I looked around me, there was blood and bullets everywhere.

The prison dude that survived is dead, I never got the chance to know his name.

And as if time has stopped, I froze and fell.

"Riza!" Carl yelled as he fell to the ground and came by my side.

"No! No! No!" He said as he put pressure on my waist.

Carl's P.O.V

I quickly took my plaid shirt off and tied it around her waist.

Picking her up gently I ran inside the prison. She held tightly to me with every step I took, I could hear her whimpering in pain.

"HERSHEL!?" I yelled as tears formed in my eyes.

"HERSHEL!?" I cried as he came.

"What is it?" He asked worriedly. 

"R-Riza." I said as I held her tightly.
