Little Rhee (A Walking Dead fanfiction) *Under Editing*

Chapter 15

I opened my eyes to see a few community members around me. I tried to sit up but moaned in pain amd laid back down. All the whispers between them stopped. Everyone stared at me.

"Don't hurt yourself. Take it slow." A soft voice imstructed.

Someone placed their hands on my back and slid me into a sitting position. Another hand held a glass of water in front of me. I took it and drank it quickly.

"What happened?" I asked.

"You shoved Noah and fell. You hit your head really hard and it knocked you out. You're probably, uh, sore from... things." Maggie's soft voice explained.

Noah took the glass from my hands and got me some more water. I nodded my thanks and chugged it again. I was about to say something when the door boomed open and my dad ran in. He was by my side in seconds.

"Are you okay?" He ran his fingers through my hair, just like mother used to do when I got hurt.

"I'm fine." I hissed, turning away from him.

"Rhylee, who hurt you?" He asked.

"No one!" I stood quickly and got off the bed.

I winced in pain but quickly regained myself. Maggie helped me to the house. I helped Carol cook and we talked.

"Who did it? Who hurt you?" She asked.

"No one did. I fell." I tried to lie.

She put her spices down and grabbed my hand pulling me to the table and making me sit.

"Don't lie to me Rhylee. Maggie told me what happened. She just didn't say who."

"It doesn't matter. It happened and it's over." I looked at my feet.

"Rhylee."

"No! Okay? It's over. It doesn't matter anymore. It happened, but it's not happening anymore! Just stop!" I began to get annoyed.

Carol stood up and went back to her dishes. She didn't ask me for anymore help. I started to feel bad.

"Carol, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to get mad. I just want this to all blow over." I started to tear up.

Carol hugged me tight as I cried. The door opened and Noah padded in followed by Maggie. They joined our hug and for the first time since the breakout, I feel loved.
