°•°•°•

Eventually, after raiding the gas station, we found a small suburb. We camped in the smallest house. Yay... Currently, Carl is setting up our beds as I stare out the window. I wounder what it would be like for Carl and I when we get together. When...? If we get together. The first time the new me met him, the excitement he had when he saw me made me feel so good. But when I told him I had no motherfucking clue who he was, the pained look on his face made me feel uneasy. Why does he 'love' me? From my knowledge, I'm not that interesting. Like Goddamn. // // // I got suspended for saying Goddamn in class😂// // // My eyes shifted over to Carl's working body, then back at the window.

"Why do you love me?" I whispered,

The words just slipped out..

"Because you're beautiful, wreckless, badass, sassy, funny, you always know how make me smile, stubborn, you make me nervous, you're a pain in the ass, but sure as Hell Mariah, you won't get out of my fucking head." He said wholeheartedly,

Awe. I just glued my eyes to the window. I can't find the heart to look him in the eyes right now. Those beautiful, pulse increasing, blue eyes.

"You won't get out of my head either." I spoke truthfully,

He just 'hmph'ed in response. Not a bad one, but a frustrated one. I get it. He loves someone who doesn't know him.

Carl's POV

// // //

Listen to it nowwwwww

// // //

I just admitted to the women I love why I love her. And all she says is 'You won't get out of my head either'?! Why can't she just remember?! It hurts to not be with her. But I guess I fucked up big time. I mumble a quick 'stay here, I'll be back' and walk out of the house, slamming the door shut. I walk down the small suburb and to the forest. I need to be alone. I slammed my body against a tree, and drag myself down it. All the things I done. Defended Amy when she shot Mariah, I bet the bitch did it on purpose. But I couldn't help but feel sickly sorry for her when her father, the rapist of my Mar, had touched his own daughter. Typical. Fucking pig. I fucked up bug time. I chose a girl I thought I loved over the girl I've wanted for a ling time. Why? Because I'm stupid. I practiaclly led that ignorant son of a bitch to Mariah. Fuck! Why can't I just have her?! Somewhere deep down, I know she loves me too. But she can't admit it to herself. Or she's just fucking with me. Seems like a Mariah thing to do. But, once she would see me like this she would drop it. I don't understand. This can't be real, we are sapposed to be together.

"Fuck!" I yelled, putting my head in my hands,

"Carl?" Her voice whispered,

Typical Mariah, stubborn as Hell. I love it.

"Mariah, lease let me be alone." I whimpered,

"No. I want to talk to you." She protested,

Awe.

"Go away."

Don't listen to me Mariah. Don't.

"No."

I groaned and stood up, standung infront of her.

"You can't tell me you don't feel the same way I feel about you." I whimpered,

She blushed a little and shook her head. She's lying... I know her better then she knows herself. And the sad part is, it's actually true.

"Carl...-"

"Mariah, you don't know what it's like! Loving someone who doesn't know you! I love you Mariah, I swear I fo! But honestly, I feel like you're glad you don't remember." I cut her off,

"Carl, no I...-"

"I get it." I cut her off agian, "You're just the one that got away."

She bit her lip and looked up at me through her lashes. God I love when she looks at me like that.

"Hey um... Guys?" A unknown voice squeaked,

A small girl emerged into our veiw. She had hiney colored hair, and green eyes. I pulled Mariah behind me, and aimed my gun at her.

"Who are you." I growled,

"I've been watching you guys. I have a place." She smiled delicately, "A town."

Mariah squeezed my shoulder. I looked back and she nodded. I shifted my gaze back to the girl our age.

"Prove it." I spat,

She slipped her backpack off and looked through the front pocket. I held my gun tightly, making sure she didn't pull out a weapon. She pulled out some pictures and handed them to me.

"Their Polaroid. Found one on our last run." She explained,

I held the pictures in my hand, examining them. It had a picture of large steel walls and houses. Parks and roads. It looked... Normal.

"I can take you there." She suggested,

"No."

"Okay." Mariah sqeaked,

"Mar, we can't...-"

"It looks safe. I'm so untrained Carl, I can't survive out here like this. In my state. Please Car, I need this." She begged, cutting me off this time,

The same stubborn Mariah I love.

"Fine." I groaned,

Mariah's POV

After an hour or so of a drive, we approached a huge metal wall. Wow. It's real.

"Here." The girl sang, letting us out,

"Hey Jake! Open up! Newcomers!" She yelled,

The gates swung open, the view of kids playing outside and people walking safely down the street xame into veiw. It's perfect.

Perfect.
