Lexi's POV

  It's been two long months. I have a stomach is a small bump now. Me and Carl grew closer for a few weeks than he's been hanging out with Ron a lot too. We talk occasionally when he comes back from Ron's and we got to sleep. We still say I love you'd and stuff but I'm not sure he means it anymore. I know I do. Him and this baby is the only thing that's keeps me going.

  I changed and walked downstairs. Daryl smiled at me as I walked into the kitchen. Everyone pretty much knows I'm pregnant and they're all pretty cool about it.

" talk to Carl." Carol asked me and I shook my head. I grabbed a banana and ate it, throwing away the peel.

" he wasn't there when I woke up so I'm guessing he's out with Ron again." I said and sat my hand on top of my stomach.

" why don't you go find him, talk some since into him." She said and I nodded. I made sure my knife was in my waist band as I walked outside. It's been a habit to carry a knife for a long time so I've never stopped.

  I walked down the sidewalk to Jessy's and knocked on the door. She opened it and smiled.

" he's Lexi, Come in." She said and I nodded, walking in the door. I waved at Sam who was sitting at the kitchen table eating cereal.

" so what you need?" Jessy asked while wiping sa,s face when he was done. He ran outside and I looked back up to her.

" I need to talk to Carl." I said when Ron walked in.

" Carl? He's not here." He said and I suddenly broke out in a sweat. I thanked them and walked outside. I walked to Nicholas who was guarding the gate.

" did Carl go in a run?" I asked and he shook his head. I groaned and heard glass break. I heard screams and jogged to the sight. Pete and Rick was on the ground fighting. Jessy's window was broken and she was trying to comfort Sam and Ron.

" Rick what the hell!" I yelled and grabbed his shoulders to try and pull him off. He elbowed me in the stomach and I screamed in pain as I fell to the ground. Rick then got a gun out and pointed it to everyone.

" you don't want to do this Rick." Diana said. He started saying crazy stuff when Michonne knocked him out. I saw Carl run through the wan as with Enid and I walked up to him.

" are you serious Carl!?" I yelled in his face. He didn't say anything.

" all this time I thought you were with Ron but no. You were wi another girl. How could you when your girlfriend is two months pregnant with your baby." I yelled. He was about to say something when I turned and looked a Enid.

" and you. You think you can just go and run away half of the day with my boyfriend and I wouldn't find out. Well if he wants you he can have you. Apparently he doesn't appreciate what her already has. A girlfriend. A baby in the way." I said and looked at him. Tears were at the brim of my eyes when Carl reached for my arm. I shoved him away and looked into his eyes.

" if you don't want to be in the baby's life. Then don't. That's your decision. I don't give a shit about what you do cause you don't even bother to tell me where your going. Where you lying to me when you said you were hanging out with Ron?" I asked him expecting an answer.

" just let me explain." He said and I can see he was about to let tears fall. I crossed my arms cause I wanted to hear what he had to say.

" I saw Enid climb over the wall and I followed her."

" you followed her. Like that makes this any better. You know what! J-just forget it." I said through sobs. I walked off and found myself at the gate. No one was here so I opened it and shut it he best I could and ran through the woods. I dodged trees and rocks till I found a clear spot. I sat on the ground and cried.

  I probably made everything worse by yelling. I fell like shit. Carl shouldn't be with me. I don't even know why he is. I picked up a rock and threw it over a ledge with a grunt.

***

  By now it was dark and I still haven't moved. I cried out all my tears. My pants are ripped and dirty along with everything else. I know I'll have to go back sooner or later but I can't get myself to.

  I heard a growl and got out my knife. I stood up and saw a female walker stumble towards me. I pushed her back and backed up myself. I tripped over a rock and landed on my back, dropping my knife. Maybe this is how it ends. Everything would be better if I was gone anyway. Carl would be happy. And that's all I want. But this baby. I can't let it die.

  I grabbed onto the walkers neck to hold it back while my other hand searched for my knife. I looked to the side and it was about a foot away from me. I knew my hand wouldn't reach it. I put both of my hand around the walkers neck and dug my finger nails into it. Blood squirted all over my face and short and I screamed.

  It wasn't dead yet. It checked at my face and I laid my head back. I'm took weak to keep holding it back. I felt the walker stop moving and looked at it. An arrow was through its head and I pushed it off of me to meet eyes with Daryl. I cried and ran to him, hugging him.

" thank you." I said through tears and he rubbed my back. He picked me up and I wrapped my arms around his neck.

" we need you Lexi. " he said and I nodded.

  When we made it back to Alexandria he took me to the infirmary. As the doctor checked my stomach for a heart beat and just I laid there. I was getting anxious as she would stop in one spot, listen, than move to another. She finally stopped and looked up at me.

" it's still alive. But please for your own good, don't go outside the walls till its born."she said and I nodded. She left and Carol walked in with tears in her eyes and hugged me. I hugged her with all the strength I had and cried with her.

" I thought you ran away." She said and sat down in a chair next to me.

" I kind of did. But I know now it was a mistake." I said and she nodded. She kissed my head.

" get some sleep." She said and I nodded. I closed my eyes and went to sleep.
