Light Turning Dark✖️Carl Grimes

[13] Telling her the ankle story

Quinn's P. O.V

I never thought in all my days Carl would get shot. It was all so fast and so confusing.

I was upstairs at the time they arrived. I was in the shower. Then I went and changed and after that I went to sleep.

But the thing was I couldn't sleep. So I sat up stairs alone and quiet hearing the commotion that was happening downstairs.

There was a quick set of feet coming up the stair. The door swings open and in pops Luca and, Kaylee?

"Kaylee?" I ask with a smile. She smiles back.

We run at each other like one of those love movies. I engage her in a hug and cry on her shoulder not caring who heard me or saw me.

I had my sister back. That's all I could ever hope and dream for was too have her back. But, then she looked down at my bandaged ankle and a sadden wave came over the room.

"I'm going to go downstairs and help out. Is that okay?" Luca asks us.

We nod and sit on the bed.

"How?" She questioned me as I twittle my thumbs.

"When Luca and I went into the woods for a quick stroll walkers started to follow us. So, we ran away. I sloped and, I guess someone left behind a knife and it cut me. Hershel said it should heal under a week." I explain. She nods at every word taking it in.

I take a big breath and let it out. "I went into a coma from it and died. But I saw mom and dad. Well that's what I thought. Mom is are mom but dad, he's, um," I cough a little. ", he's are step dad, Kaylee. Mom told me and I feel so abandon. But I think I !may know who he is. But you don't know him as well as I do." I tell her looking down at my ankle.

"I know. Not that dad was our step dad but that you never liked the male sex, because of the bullying you've had. And that you died for a little bit, so did I. In my dream a little while ago I had a strange dream. It came true." She only had to say that for me to know what she means.

I cry even harder. "I'm sorry." I say as I get up and walk into Beth's room where she was writing in her diary.

"Help or talking, or even both?" She asks with a smile that then made me smile.

"Both." I answer as I close the door and lock it.
