For You // R.G.

Chapter 84

Sena's POV

"Maybe we should just go back to the church, they'll know we're gone and go back to the church." Derek says, I shake my head.

"No, no... Because they were heading east, and east is that way." I pointed, I was searching through my mind, trying to remember every detail of what Rick was saying, like what direction and how far.

"I said leave me alone..." I heard max say. I turn around and see Luke trying to talk to max. She was staring ahead of her, Luke was trying to do something. I didn't like it,

"Hey, buddy, back off." I told him, he looked at me. He sighed, looking like he just got busted by the cops.

"I'm not doing anything, I'm trying to help her, she's really mad-" he tried to explain to me,

"Hey, I know. She's my friend and frankly she doesn't want to be bothered by another guy for awhile. Leave her alone." I took my eyes off of Luke to talk with Derek and discuss what the possible options were for finding the group. Derek started to say something but Luke didn't give it up,

"Look, I know all of you hate me for some reason, I don't know why, but I'm just trying to help." Luke says. I looked over at him again,

"I don't care. You're doing more harm than good, leave it be." I stated. He sighed, I thought our argument was over until he says,

"They were going north. The expressway is north of here by a mile or two."

I looked back at Luke. He slung his gun over his back,

"We could go East, back to Terminus." He jokes. I was about to ask him how he knew where terminus was but I saw black smoke just above the trees a few miles away to my right. I looked at Luke who was now confidently going north. I looked at Derek,

"If we see the tree that looks like an S, we'll know he's right." Derek reassures. I smiled a little at his comment. I was about to call over max but she walked past me with a straight face and her gun across her chest. She looked like a new person.

"Is that it?" Derek asked once she was far enough to not hear us. He was asking if that was all of Max's breakdown, I shrugged,

"I don't know... She looks good though. Strong, like a drill sergeant." I joke a little. Derek shakes his head and we keep following Luke, hoping he knew where we were going.

An hour passed, and we still hadn't found the S tree. I got angry with Luke,

"Why the hell would you lie to us?" I yelled at him, he had his face in his hands, he looked ashamed.

"I didn't know we were going the wrong way." He started to say,

"It sure sounded like it!" I shouted. Derek started to call out names from our group,

"Jamie!"

"Rick!"

"Sasha!"

We'd yell all of them, over and over again but nothing happened. It was dark out, Derek and max built a fire. We'd hope that the group would see it and come but with every passing second, we lost a little bit of hope.

I looked over at max, she was staring into the fire, a blank expression upon her face. She had her gun around her still,

"We'll find them." Luke says. I darted my eyes at him, he saw and then shut his mouth.

Rick's POV

"I don't know, Rick. We've been out here for hours now." Alvin says.

"I have to find my son, do you think he's still out there?" I looked and saw Pete grim with worry. I had a straight face, I was angry though.
