Perilous~ Carl Grimes

Chapter 11

Its been a couple days since I've noticed the bruises on Jessie. I know she said she fell, and I shouldn't be concerned but I am. She quickly dodged my questions that day, which made me suspicious. It's none of my business, which is why I am going to let it go to the best of my abilities until I discover more. 

I also haven't had a proper conversation with Carl in the last couple days. More times than not this week he has been with Enid. As a friend I know I should be happy he found someone else to get along with, but I'm not. Maybe I would be, if he didn't ignore more or drop me as soon as she shows up. 

But since Carl is deciding to go off with the new girl instead of his actual family and friends, i've had to spend most of my days with either Ron or Noah. I can't complain though especially when it comes to Noah. We always manage to have great conversations that come with many laughs, and Ron may be extremely annoying, but after spending some time with him I realized he's pretty awesome.  

Our friendship is more jokey and full of pranks compared to Noah's and I. Ron and I don't have heart to hearts. We don't talk about the shitty world, we just spend time together and enjoy each other's company. 

Currently I was sat in the kitchen with Isaac and Addison listening to them complaining about how they can't go on the run today with Glenn, Tara, Noah, Eugene, Nicholas, and Aiden.

"I just don't understand. The more the better right?" Addison stated sighing and shrugging her shoulder's.

"In this case, I guess not." I snickered which earned me an not so friendly face from both my siblings. "Seriously you two, It's one run. I think you'll be ok."

"Maybe Rick and Daryl need help with something." Isaac sighed in defeat before walking out the door sulking.

"Yeah maybe I can help Maggie or Jessie out with god knows what." Addison exclaimed before repeating Isaac's actions.

I rolled my eyes before hopping of the chair and making my way to the front gates. 

"Is there anything specific you need?" Glenn asked coming up from behind me and wrapping an arm around my shoulders. 

"I think I'm good." I smiled up at him playfully resting my head on his shoulder.

"Your sure?'

"Yeah, just be careful ok?" I looked up at him with worried eyes.

"I'll be fine, I promise." he smiled before pulling me into a hug. 

"You too." I said pointing to Noah as I released from the hug.

"I will." Noah smiled before repeating Glenn's actions. 

I did this two more times with Tara and Eugene before they got in van and made their way out the gates with awful music playing really loud.

Now that everyone had cleared out, I started making my way back to the house. As I was about a foot from the house, I noticed an all to familiar face sitting on the front steps.

"Ron what are you doing here?" 

"I was bored, so I planned on hanging with Enid, since you know we're technically together and I wanted to see my girlfriend, but I can't find her so I came here." he sighed

"Wow second choice, I'm honored." I sarcastically said placing a hand over my heart.

"Whatever, lets go to the pond." he said before standing up and pumping my shoulder playfully. 

Once we reached the pond the two of us sat in silence for awhile. Ron seemed like he had a lot on his mind so I decided to ask.

"What are you thinking about?"
