Lexi's POV

  Tonight Alexandria is throwing a small party for us all. It's really nice of them considering they don't know us all that well.

  I got out of my bed and walked downstairs. Carol saw me and gave me a half smile as she walked over to me and gave me a hug.

" when I was pregnant with Sophia the smell of the movie theater popcorn butter made me so sick." She said and I slightly pulled away and looked at her.

" I won't tell anyone, but if you need anything don't be afraid to ask." She said and kissed my head. Carol was always like a mother figure to me, since I really never had a mother. I felt guilty that three people already knew and I haven't told my one family member I have left. Daryl. But he would probably murder Carl and I couldn't let that happen.

  I walked outside and sat on the porch. I saw all the kids running around and smiled. I hope this place is still safe when my baby comes.

  I felt a hand on my shoulder and looked up to see Carl.

" morning baby." He said and kissed me, looking down at my stomach. " baby's "

  I smiled and held his hand.

" I'm kind of excited for this party tonight cause ya know we never had our first dance before." He smirked and I giggled.

" well I want you to be my first everything." I said and he smiled. We walked back inside and Beth walked up to me.

" can I help you get ready tonight? Jessy next door gave me some pretty dresses to look through." I nodded and smiled.

" yeah that would be great." I answered and she walked away. Me and Carl sat down and ate our breakfast, no biscuits.

  The memory of Hershel dying at the prison flooded my mind and I thought. Who's gone deliver the baby. I heard stories about Carl's mom and how she died and I don't wanna end up like that.

  I put my plate in the sink and ran up to my room. Soon Carl joined me.

" what's wrong?" He asked and I turned to him with tears in my eyes.

" who's gone deliver the baby." I asked.

" Aaron said they have a doctor here." He said and grabbed my waist.

" but what if they don't have the stuff. What if I end up like your.." I stopped myself and Carl backed up.

" I'm sorry I didn't mean to." I said and reached for him.

He shook his head and walked out the door. I fell on my bed and cried. And we were just talking about our first everything.

  " you look great." Beth said. (Outfit at the top!)

  I smiled at my reflection and turned to her.

" thank you" I said and hugged her. I walked downstairs and saw Daryl.

" where's Lexi." He said and looked around. I giggled and he hugged me.

" I never saw you with makeup on. You look ridiculous." He said and I slapped his chest.

" whatever lets just go." I said and we all left.

When we made it to Diana's house there was quit a few people here. There was food laid out and drinks. The was soft music playing and people just talked like nothing in this world was going wrong.

I walked over to the food table and ate a cookie. Or two.. When a boy walked up to me.

" I'm Ron, Jessy's son." He said and is hook his hand.

" nice to meet you, I'm Lexi." I introduced my self and he smiled.

" I don't think we actually met I mean we saw each other while I was hanging out with Carl."he laughed and I agreed.

" so where is Carl." He asked and I looked around.

" I don't really know. Excuse me." I said and walked outside. I walked back to our house. I checked every room in the house and Carl was nowhere to be found I started panicking and sat on my bed. I felt a breeze and looked to see my window open. I never leave my window open. I slipped off my shoes and climbed out the window and looked up. I grabbed onto the roof and pulled myself up. When I was safely on top I saw Cael sitting on the back looking out at the woods.

  I walked over to him and sat next to him. He slowly looked over to me but I just stared in front of me.

" I'm sorry Carl. I shouldn't of said that." I said and he moved my face so I was looking at him.

" I know. I was stupid to take it that hard. I mean she died a log time ago." He said and I held his hand. We sat there for a few minutes in silence before her got up and reached out his hand.

" may I have this dance ." He said and I giggled. I grabbed it and stood up. He placed his hands on my waisted and mine found there way to his neck. We swayed to nothing. Just our silence and happiness.

" you look beautiful, but you look better without the makeup." He said, making me blush. I laid my head in his shoulder and sighed. I felt him lift up my head and he connected his lips with mine. These are the moments I loved. Just us.
