I was alone now... Daryl had gone in search of Merle and I had to stay and mind the camp...

"Lana" came the call of my favourite person here

"What?" I grumbled, my boredom seeping out

"Wanna catch frogs with me and Shane?" I sighed loudly... It wasn't a secret that I hated Shane everyone knew

"No but I will walk down with you anyway" I replied. I might as well spend some time with him, he dale and Glenn are the only people I talk to hear... The others have only heard my voice  when I yelled at Rick. I climbed out of my tent and walked Carl down to the large lake Daryl and I used to swim in during our first few months of dating. I remember standing before it in my wedding dress which cost Daryl three months salary in a job he started just to pay for the wedding.

"You know what I might go for a swim" I announced taking my jacket of along with my boots leaving me in a tank top and jeans

"You have tattoos that's so cool!" Yelled Carl tugging at my shirt to get a better view

"Yeah... I have quite a few actually" I answered looking over my body

"Can you show me?" He asked looking very excited. I nodded and sat down to show him. I held out my wrists to show my brother's name along with Daryl's written in stunning italics, then I lifted my tank top to show him the wings tattooed on my back

"You have a lot of scars on your back... Were you in a car crash?" Carl innocently quizzed. I smiled

"No... My dad gave them to me" Carl nodded understanding not to ask anymore

"Have you got anymore?" He quickly scanned over my body. I nodded and turned around showing him the back of my upper arm

"What does it say?" He asked looking at the quote that was written in white ink

"It says, while not knowing; would be unable to say... It's something my brother used to say" he nodded and pointed towards my chest. I lowered the strap of my top showing a small devil on my heart

"What's that?" I laughed

"It's a tattoo me and my husband share... Daryl has it in his inner arm" Carl smiled and looked like he was going to say something before he was interrupted

"Carl! Come on! The frogs aren't gonna catch themselves!" God I hate Shane... He is such an bigot idiot. Carl waved good bye and ran towards Shane who gave me a small glare to which I replied with the glorious middle finger. I backed up from the water slightly before running and diving gracefully into it. The feeling of the cool water on my boiling skin was practically orgasmic. I swam to the centre of the lake and lay on my back allowing my body to float. The small waves that the wind caused sent me slowly in the same direction before I heard a lot of shouting from Lori. How did I know it was Lori? Well for starters she never shuts up!

I swam over to wear the rest of the women were doing the laundry. I took a seat beside them and began to ring out my hair. I took of my tank top and quickly squeezed all the water out and put it back on before anyone noticed my scars... When I tuned back into their conversation I was a bit awe struck at how it escalated

"I miss my vibrator" came from Jacqui. The girls giggled and stared at her until Carol also spoke

"Me too" everyone burst out laughing excluding me, because I noticed Ed watching Carol very closely. He came closer and I found my self zoning out again. I thought about how the lake was almost completely transparent but Ed raising his hand snapped me out of my thoughts I sprung up and grabbed his hand before it made contact with anything, the women behind me ushered Carol away and kept her safely away from her husband. I noticed Shane coming closer so I twisted Ed's hand behind his back until his shoulder snapped out of the socket. He yelled in pain and I kicked him forward until he landed in front of Shane who then continued to beat the shit out of him. As I began to walk away a sharp pain hit my wrist, I turned to look at my hand to find it trapped in a bear sized hand. When I looked up I found an enraged Shane
