Team Family (Richonne)

Chp 16: I don't need nobody

Michonne's P.O.V

I walked back home happily, so ready to hear about Rick's day and I could tell Carl the cake was coming along great so I could see his big bright smile.

I walked through the door to be met by the boys and Judith playing Monopoly on the dining table, well Judith wasn't playing, she was just watching.

"Wassgud Michelle." Jay said

"Hey Michonne, how was your day?" Carl asked

"Great. Got news for you," I winked at him and looked around, "where's Rick?"

"He hasn't come home." Carl answered

Hm.. That's strange. He's always home by now..
It's 8:30!

I grabbed my coat off the rack and turned to the boys, "I'll be back." I said

"Or like don't because I'd sleep in your bed tonight." Jay joked

God I can't believe he'll be 17. He acts 5.

I shut the door behind me and instantly walked to Maggie's house.
I banged 3 times and stood there waiting for an answer when eventually Glenn came tumbling to the door, shirtless and fixing his pants.

"Hey Glenn, sorry to interrupt--"

"Oh Michonne uh hi, no no, you're fine." He insisted

"Have you seen Rick?" I asked

Glenn scratched his head and pondered for a second,
"I saw him with Jolene earlier.. She lives in the blue one." he pointed to the trailer not too far from theirs.

Oh really? See... Ugh this is what I was afraid of.

"Thanks." I smiled at him and he smiled back.
Glenn is so sweet, he is never angry with anyone and he is one of my favorite people.

"Goodnight." he shut his door and I stormed off down to Jolene's house.

I was about ready to bust down her goddamn door but I realised it was open so I helped myself in.

I heard noises from the back room and loud bumps, I slowly crept back there and all in once I kicked her door open.

To..
Rick?.......

I couldn't move, my body just felt like shutting down.

Rick and Jolene were naked.

Rick was against a wall and Jolene cornered him.

Rick's eyes met mine and everything slowed down, the noises, the motion and my state of mind.

"How could you?" I mouthed

I ran out the room and out the house only to be followed by Rick.
"Michonne!  It's not what It looks like!" he yelled

I burst through the door to our house and rushed upstairs. I couldn't take it. Matter of fact,  I could barely breathe.

I ran into the house after Michonne, still holding on close to the sheet around my body. The boys were already rushing up there so I had to shove through them.

I met Michonne in our room, she sobbed as she threw things into a bag.

"Michonne don't leave! Let me explain!" I yelled

She ignored me and continued  her packing.

"What's going on?!" Carl exclaimed

"Michonne it wasn't my fau-"

She grabbed the bag and walked to my face and smacked me so hard the spit flew out my mouth and onto Jay.

"It's not your fault? It's not your fault you  slept with her? Rick I opened my heart to you and you broke it."
She stared me dead in my blue eyes, chest to chest, and thenshe smacked me again.
"Fuck you! I don't need nobody!"

She pushed me out the way and I tried to grab her back but she dug her nails into my forearms, causing me to release her.

"D- dad you cheated on Michonne?" Carl murmured

"No it's not like th--"

"How could you do that to her? You're such a coward!" he yelled now

Jay stood holding Judith and watched the action.

Carl grabbed Judith and rushed down the stairs, "Carl don't go out that door!" I yelled

"Don't talk to me you shitface!" he slammed the door and then I was alone.

I rubbed the side of my face and went to sit on the bed.
I began crying thinking about Michonne, I want her to talk to me.
I need her I can't do this alone.
Jolene raped me and I bet she won't ever believe me!

I sobbed loudly now, tucking at my curly hair.
My son's gone with my daughter and so is the woman I truly love. They hate me right now. Can things get worse?

I ran my fingers over my colt pistol... What If I ended it now?

I pulled the gun out the holster and lifted it but before I could even put it in position, it was smacked out of my hand.

"Fucking Idiot!' Jay yelled

I cried even more,trying to cover my eyes.

Jay sighed and sat beside me, "let's talk."
