All On My Own

I Love You Forever

Ok I said that the chapter will be called no more but that's for later, since some of you messaged me and told me to have Sam and Rick together so get your tissues ready because this is going to be romantic❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Well the end is. Also the pic above is not how they really look unless you want them to look like that.

"What do you mean hope?" Rick asked angrily. "Hope that the dead will come back alive?"

"No," I replied.

"Then what?" He leaned in close so his lips almost touched mine and our foreheads connected sending a burst of energy down through me.

I staggered back and nearly tripped but answered,"He always loved me. No matter what,"

Rick took a step towards me and placed his strong hands on my shoulders, pulling me in so there wasn't even an inch of space between us.

"You don't think I love you?" He whispered, his voice tickling my neck.

"I-I do," I said, my breath uneven and shaky.

"Then?"

"It's just... If he hadn't died, I wouldn't be here with you. I would be with him and you would be- God knows where. But he did die and we're here now."

"So what? You owe this all to him?" He scowled and narrowed his eyes. I cringed at his angry face. He gripped me tighter and I tensed up, barely able to breathe.

"Rick," his face softened at my words and I chose my next words carefully. "If you were in his place, would you want me to run off with someone else and just.... completely forget about you?"

"No. Of course not. But I would say move on. Because it happened and it's over and there's absolutely nothing you can do about it,"

"But you wouldn't know that!" I bursted out. "Because you didn't lose people like I have. I've lost my mom, my dad, my brother, Cameron.... I can't lose you!"

Suddenly, he took his arms off my shoulders and wrapped them around me, slowly under my arms. I stood there stiff, then finally relaxed and wrapped my arms around him too.

"And you won't,"

"Yeah yeah," a voice interrupted our moment. "This is sweet and all, but can you do this later and please help us?"

I unfolded my hands from Rick and scowled. "Why would we help you?" I asked angrily.

"Hey lets go," the boy whispered to Bonnie.

"No!" Bonnie hissed. "You can go if you want Troy, but I'm getting help,"

"Um, no you're not," Rick said, grabbing my hand. He swung his pack over his shoulder with the other and I did the same.

We strode away with Bonnie and Troy right behind us.

"Please!" The girl called after us. "We lost our family just like you and we need another one,"

I stopped cold, letting go of Ricks hand, and swung around.

"No." I stated, sharply. "You don't. And neither do we,"

Rick looked at me and I grabbed his hand once again.

"Bonnie..." Troy warned. "Let's. Go."

She stood there for a while, her dark cold eyes staring deeply into mine.

"Fine!" Bonnie exclaimed, turning around and grabbing the pack from Troy's hand, shoving him on the process.

"Ouch!" He yelled. "Geez Bon-Bon!"

"Hey!" She spin around and launched herself at Troy. She pushed him to the ground and hissed,"Do NOT call me Bon-Bon! Ever!"

Troy stood up and stick his tongue out at his sister. They raced off, leaving me and Rick alone.

He wrapped his warm arms around me again and I did the same, putting my head on his chest as we swayed back and forth in silence.

"I love you," he whispered. "I really really do,"

"I love you too," I kissed his cheek.

He pulled back a little and reached behind him to pull out a small blanket, which he draped over us. I closed my eyes and steadied my breathing.

Then, he kissed both my eyes, drawing down to my cheek and then he got to my lips.

Opening my eyes, I traced a line down his temple to his cheekbone and whispered,"I love you, I love you, I love you," over and over again.

He pulled me so close, I could feel his every move, bringing my hand down to my sides as his lips crashed against mine and everything seemed to glow.

I closed my eyes again and moved my lips in sync with his for about 17 seconds, until I had to pull away for breath.

[there is NO bleh in here just so you know]

Before I could say his name, he pulled me in again and I felt a tingling sensation deep down, one part saying "no this is wrong. I can't have this. I don't deserve it." But the other part said "it's fine it's fine. I'm with Rick now. It's fine"

"Baby," Rick said as he pulled away. He kissed my cheeks over and over. "I want you so badly," he said in between kisses. "If I lost you...."

"It's ok," I said quickly. "You-you won't. I promise I will always be with you and I'm sorry I didn't tell you that before,"

Rain started dripping down, and the wind made the blanket drift away but we didn't care.

We were in love.
