Team Family (Richonne)

Ch9: Little red

Michonne's P.O.V

Today has been a really rough day and I can't help but wonder, is it even worth it?..starting off the morning bright and happy and now I'm stuck in a shed with an unconscious boy and 2 mourning women. Make that 3 if you count me.

Denise stayed by Jay's side throughout the night and she made sure his breathing was picking up. She is going to save his life I know she will..

"How is he?" I asked.

"He's okay, not too well.. Not sure when he will wake up, or if he will wake up, but when he does he may not be able to move for a while." she said

"Thank you Denise, for helping him." I said

"Yeah, It's nothing. It's what Tara would want.."

"I'm sorry again.."

Denise nodded and held her head down, crying again.

I tried comforting Sasha and Denise but they didn't seem to want my help.. And they didn't try to comfort me.

I walked over to Sasha by the window and hugged her, "You okay?" I asked

"I'm doing better. I just prayed 8 times." she murmured

"8? What did you pray about?"

"I asked god for everything to go right, for him to give me Abraham and for him to give you Rick and Carl and Judith, for Jay to be alright," she looked down at her feet, "for everything to go right.." she said

Her voice was so shaky it gave me chills.

"You want to talk about something tha--"

"I'm pregnant.." she cut me off

I looked her in the eyes before giving her a big hug "Congratulations Sasha."

"Thanks I just-- I haven't told Abraham and I need to tell him. I have to find him and tell him and I'll be happy again." she assured

"We'll find him.."

I wasn't so sure but who knows what fate has in mind?

Rick's P.O.V

Carl and I didn't find a place to sleep tonight, so we decided the best place to sleep would be the car. We pulled off to the side of the road and leaned our chairs back so we could get some rest.

"Night." Carl said, turning over to sleep.

I laid there, just holding my tears back. I could hear Carl sniffling quietly to himself, he was crying but he didn't want me to know. Carl doesn't like showing his weakness.

I tried to go to sleep, I really did. But I just couldn't. All the memories with Michonne played in my head and I just wanted to die. They hurt worse than my starving stomach, worse than a gunshot, I felt like I did with Lori.
"I'm still with you."

Michonne has been with me through everything and she never gave up on me. I'm not going to give up on her. She is strong and she made it I know. I just have to tell her how I feel if I ever get a chance.

Michonne's P.O.V

I woke up to Sasha hovering over me and shaking me senseless. "Wake up," she said

"What what is it?" I asked, Jumping up, ready for combat.

"You promised we'd look Abraham today." She whispered

I looked around the old shed we were lying in, Denise laid crouched up in the corner and Jay still unconscious laying on a bit of hay we found to support his head.
