A Dixon Sister?

Chapter 37

Emma POV

What am doing?

Why am being so emotional?

I am usually so good at hiding my emotions. Why can't I hide them now?

I need to stop, I need to hide them, from everyone, even Daryl and Merle. I need to be strong. 

I need to be a fighter.

I pulled out of my hug with Merle and wiped my eyes. I stood up and rubbed my face with both of my hands. I heard footsteps run into the room.

"Guys come quick there's something weird outside". A small voice said. I soon recognised the voice as Carl's.

I grabbed my weapon's, ran out of the cell  and towards the door leading out of the cell block. I was about to follow Rick out of the door before I was stopped. I turned around to see Daryl holding me by the arm.

"Your staying here". He said assertively as he released my arm.

"WHAT". I shouted. "That's not fair".

"Yes it is fair because number one if things go south you'll be safe and number to we need someone to keep everyone in here safe". Merle informed as he walked next to Daryl.

"Fine". I huffed.

I walked off and stood in the canteen area with Sophia and Carl. We waited  and played a card game on the table with a deck of cards we had found in the cells. After a few minutes Rick, Daryl, Merle, Glenn, Maggie, Michonne and Andrea came back into the room.

Wait......Andrea??

She died. Why is she here?

"After you saved me, we thought you were dead". Carol brought me out of my trance to notice that Daryl and Merle were standing/sitting either side of me.

Andrea pulled out of her hug and looked around everyone. "Herschel....Emma, oh my God. I can't believe this. Where's Shane". Andrea asked. I shuffled on my feet.

"He's dead. He tried to kill me and Rick so we killed him. He's the one who gave me this". I pointed to my scar.

"What about Lori". Andrea asked.

I saw Rick stiffen, Sophia walked over to Carl and gave him a small hug.

"She had a girl. Lori didn't survive". Herschel said.

"Neither did T-dog". Maggie said.

"I'm so sorry, Carl, Sophia.....Rick, I.....you all live here". Andrea asked changing the subject.

Rick stepped back and took a deep intake of breath.

"Here in the cell block". Glenn confirmed. His eye still bruised from being kidnapped.

"There". Andrea asked pointing to the celled area.

Glenn nodded in response.

"Well can I go in". Andrea started walking towards the cells. I quickly stood infront of her stopping her from going in.

"I won't let you do that". I said.

"Well it's not your choice Scarface". Andrea spat.

I squared up to her. "Call me that again". I said. My voice raised slightly but somehow still sounding calm.

"Andrea back off". Rick huffed.

"I'm not an enemy, Rick.". Andrea pleaded.

"Then back off". I said. She stood back a bit.
