Stronger than before...

Its finally over

"Hey you awake?" I asked Glenn as I stood in the doorway of his cell

"Yeah" mumbled a half asleep Glenn "Clementine?"

"Hey, I brought you some of Hershel's tea" I said to him as I handed him a cup

"Thank you" he said as he sat up and took a sip of his drink "You should be resting"

"Yeah I know" I replied after I took a sip from my own cup "But I'm just excited that I'm being released in the morning, plus I wanted to check on you"

"How'd you convince Hershel to let you be released?" Glenn asked

"A lot of begging and whining" I replied with a laugh

He smiled and took another sip of the tea.

"So how are you feeling?" I asked Glenn

"I should be asking you that" he said "you were in worse shape than anybody"

"Well I'm fine" I replied with a smile "now answer the question"

"I'm fine too" he said with a smile

"So do you think your fine enough to be released soon?" I asked him curiously

"Well... I'm probably not gonna be released anytime soon" he said "I'm gonna stay and help everybody else"

"Your gonna risk it?" I asked him as I finished up my tea

"Yeah" he said "I-I have to. There's kids here and people who are depending on us"

I nodded, I didn't personally agree with his decision but I understood why he was doing it.

We talked for about 10 more minutes before saying goodbye.

I went back to my cell and started packing my stuff.

I let out a sigh as I pulled out Bella's bag from under the bed.

I opened her bag and dumped all the contents on the ground. There were her clothes, 1 granola bar and a picture.

I picked up the picture and looked at it, it was of her, her parents and her twin brother. They all looked so happy.

I put the picture in my bag along with the granola bar. I put all the rest of her stuff back in her bag and slid it under the bed.

I started going through all my books, I left behind all the ones ruined with the blood from the floor.

When I was feeling finished packing I put my backpack on my bed.

I couldn't help but smile, it was finally over. I could finally go back to block A and not feel like I was going to die every hour of the day.

"Clementine?" Maggie said as she came into the cell interrupting me from my thoughts.

"Maggie" I said with a smile

"How ya feeling?" She asked as she returned the smile

"Good" I said "it's finally over"

"I know" she said with a smile "but I actually came here to ask you if you've seen Hershel within a couple of hours?"

"No" I said "why is something wrong?"

"No" she said trying not to worry me "Everything's fine"

"You sure?" I asked curiously

"Yeah, 100%" she said before he placed her hand on my forehead "and if you want you can go back over to block A now"
