Alone

          "Are you sure?" I asked Tara. She nodded.
"I have Michonne." She said. I nod and go down the ladder. I head to the house and see Carl on the porch reading a book. I get closer to him and see that he was reading Dream House.
"Hey, I'm still reading that." I said smiling. He looks up at me and smiles.
"I know but- how come you never told me it was such a good book?" He asked. I chuckle and I go over to him.
"Cause didn't think you liked those kinds of books." I said sitting down next to him.
"You know since you always read comic books." I said. He smiles. He closes the book and sets it down on the porch.
"Let's go for walk. We never went on walks before." Carl said. I smile.
"Okay." I said. We get up and he holds his hand out for me to hold it. I grab it and we started walking down the street.
"Do you think Glenn and Nicholas are alive?" Carl asked. I look at him and look at the ground. We turn the corner.
"Well, Glenn is with Nicholas and he gets everyone killed so I doubt Glenn's alive." I said.
"I think he's alive. He has to be. I mean it's Glenn." Carl said. I nodded.
"True but even people like Glenn die too." I said. Carl nodded. I see something green in the air. I quickly look at but do a double take.
"Whoa, Carl, look." I said pointing at the balloons.
"Those are the safe balloons." Carl said. I look at Carl.
"It's Glenn." Carl said. We go over to the main street to see them better. I see that everyone there was looking at the balloons too. Suddenly, I hear a cracking noise. I look at the noise and see on of the watch towers falling over onto the wall. I watch in horror as walkers slowly started coming inside.
"Everyone, get back! Get into your houses, go!" I hear Rick yell. Carl grabs my hand and starts run to the other side of a house.
"What are we doing?" I asked panting.
"Waiting for my dad." Carl said peeking out.
"Where's Judith." I whispered.
"Sh- She was with Carol last time I saw them." Carl said. I hear running footsteps coming from behind me. I quickly turn around. I was about to grab my knife when I realize I didn't have one but it was a good thing too cause, it was just Ron and Gabriel.
"Next time give me warning would you." I said sarcastically.
"Found him, come on." Carl said. Ron, Gabriel and I follow Carl. Carl grabbed my hand as we go into the center of everyone. Me being the only one without a weapons. I felt useless and I hate feeling protected. I wanted to defend myself but I couldn't. Walkers got in our path and someone shoots them down.
"Come on, I have Judith!" Jessie yells. We all run inside her house. Rick and Michonne took Deanna upstairs since she was hurt. I go into the kitchen and start looking for a knife.
"Here." I hear Ron say from behind me. I look at him and see him holding out his knife. I grab it.
"Thanks." I said to him. I look at Carl and shake my head.
"It's a good thing you took my weapons away." I said sarcastically. Carl frowned.
"I thought we would be safe." Carl said. I shake my head.
"Carl, we're never going to be safe. Even if you think you're safe, you're not." I said. Carl doesn't say anything.
"We thought we were safe in the prison but then the Governor came and everything went to shit. People died." I stare at Carl frowning.
"A lot of people we loved died. And now it's going to happen again." I said. I look out the window and see walkers passing by. Dominic and Avie are out there. I hear someone go up stairs. I ignore it and go to the window. Where are they? It's too dangerous for me to go out there and I'm pretty sure Carl wouldn't let me go out there. I look around trying to look for them. Wasn't Avie here? Where did she go? Last time I saw Dominic was when he was at the house. Is he still there? They're probably both dead walking among these damn walkers. I started looking at each walkers face trying to see if they actually turned. I suddenly heard banging from the garage. I quickly go over to it and try to open the door. But it wouldn't open. I started hearing grunting and glass breaking. I hear people running down the stairs. Rick called out fro Carl. Wait, Carl's in there!? I started banging on the door even harder.
"Carl, open the door." I shouted.
"Back up." Rick said. I stop banging on the door and move. Rick starts to hit the lock with his axe. Once he broke it, I see Carl trying to keep the walkers out and Ron on the floor. They both run inside and we close the door holding it closed so the walkers wouldn't come in.
"Move!" Rick said bringing a couch over. We all move out of the way while Rick and Gabriel put the couch against the door.
"We need more, and we need to be quiet." Rick whispered.
"I'll see what I can find." Michonne said going to the living room.
"Me, too." Gabriel said going with Michonne. Carl went to help Rick and Jessie while Ron and I stood behind them. I looked at Ron and he looked nervous.
"Hey, hey, what happened in there?" Rick asked Carl.
"We were looking for tools and knocked over a shelf." Carl lied. I frown, knowing he was lying.
"We heard yelling." Jessie said.
"Yeah, Ron saw them break through the gates. We had to move." Carl said. I shake my head not believing him. They were fighting. Ron goes over to Carl and whispers something to him.
"Hey, it sounded like you were fighting." Jessie said to Ron.
"Yeah, but we were fighting them." Ron said not sounding convincing. Ron went upstairs.
"Carl? It's okay?" Rick asked.
"It's okay." Carl said. Carl followed Ron upstairs. I looked at Rick.
"Go." Rick said. I nod and follow them. I see Carl close the door. I quietly go over to the door and listen.
"Hand me the gun, grip first." I hear Carl say. Ron has bullets in his gun?!
"Carl, I'm sorry." I hear Ron say.
"Yeah, I know. Now give me the gun." Carl said in a angry tone. I could hear shuffling. Wait, Ron was going to shot him. Ron was trying to kill Carl. I could feel my blood boiling.
"Look, man I get it. My dad killed your dad, but you need to know something. Your dad was an asshole." Carl said. Carl opened the door and I quickly went inside. I pointed Ron's knife at Ron.
"If you ever try lay a finger on Carl again, I swear I will not hesitate to kill you." I said coldly. Ron looked scared. Carl pulled me back out into the hall.
"Don't even trying to defend him, Carl. He tried to kill you." I said. Carl looked at the ground and nods. Ron comes out and I glare at him. We go down stairs and see everyone there.
"They knocked the sculpture over." Jessie said looking out the window.
"All that noise, it's drawing more." Michonne said. Judith started crying.
"I'll get her." Rick said going upstairs. More walkers started coming over to the house. The walkers started banging on the window breaking the glass. Carl grabs the coffee table and puts it against the window holding the walkers off. We all help him.
"Rick!" Jessie calls out for him. I hear Rick running down the stairs. He comes over helps us.
"There's just too many of them." Gabriel said. I hear something fall over. I look to my side and the walkers coming in the house.
"Everybody get upstairs now!" Michonne yells as she killed a walker. We all let go of the table and run upstairs.
"The couch! Let's block the stairs." Rick says. Gabriel and Rick grab the couch and pull it to the stairs block it off.
"I got this one, you get the one behind it." Rick said. He kills one of the walkers and Michonne kills. They grab the walkers and pull them in. They bring them into the room and they started gutting them.
"You two stay here. You see anyone squeezing through, you get me." Rick says to Carl and I. We both nod and go to the stairs. I could see walkers hands reach out.
"Uh," I look at Carl.
"I know this isn't a good time but-" He groans. I look at him confused. He starts digging in his pocket.
"I wanted to give you this since today is your birthday." Carl said taking out a ring. I looked at it shocked.
"Carl, we're still young." I said looking at him. He nods.
"I know but it's a promise ring." He said.
"A promise." I said. He nods.
"It's a promise that we will always be together until the end of time." Carl said. I chuckled. I felt that icy feeling in my chest. I haven't felt that in so long. I smiled. I hold my hand out and he put on the ring. I notice his had a ring on too.
"You have one too." I said. He smiled.
"Of course." He said.
"I love you." I said.
"I love you too."



So that it for now. See ya on the mid season premiere! Ask me more questions and I'll answer one here every week!
Question: Does Fatima like killing walkers or people?
Answer: Walkers: She likes killing them because she hates them for killing all the people she loved. People: Honestly I think she doesn't want to like, cause she thinks it goes to make her into a cold, heartless person she doesn't want to be.
