Surviving The Walking Dead

Ch:20 Helping Sasha

I walked over to a book shelf and looked at the books. They were all books about love and family. I walked away because I didnt want to think about my family. I didnt have time to let emotions come out. I examined all the things inside the dresser drawers. In one there were bottled of perfume and deoderant. I put some deoderant on and sprays 2 squirts of perfume on me. I opened another drawer and looked inside. It was packed to the top with make-up, There had to me enought make-up in here to last me the rest of my life.

I took out some eyeline and mascara. I put the eyeliner on the top and bottom then looked at myself. The eyeliner brought out my green eyes. Then I put some mascara on that brought my eye color out even more. For the first time in awhile I actually felt pretty. I walked over to the closet and looked around. There was a huge camping backpace so I took it and brought it over to the dresser. I grabbed all of the make-up and put it in a huge side pocket.

I grabbed all of the eye liner pencils and the tubes of mascara. I put them in a huge side pocket and I couldnt zip it. I moved the make-up around and it finally zipped shut. I walked back over to the closet and allowed myself to pick out an outfit for winter. I has clothes for spring and summer, but I need warm clothes for fall and winter. I grabbed a think long sleeve hoodie and 2 pairs of sweatpants so I could wear 2 layers. Then I remembered that I already had on sweatpants so now I would be wearing 3 layers of sweatpants.

I grabbed about 2 more black cami's to match the 2 black bra's I have. I found the one here and wore the other one before we found this place. I walked to the back pack and put everything inside of it. I had room for about 3 more things so I looked around my new room. I walked over to the nightstand and opened the drawer. I looked inside and found a flashlight. I packed it inside the bag and looked for 2 other things.

I looked under the bed, but there was nothing under there. I walked out of my room and went downstairs. I grabbed a box of feminine products and said "ok, one more thing". I walked into the living room and seen a book that caught my eye. It was a survival book. I already knew how to survive, but I took it just incase we ever needed it. I ran back up the steps and put those 2 things in the backpack. I grabbed it and put it on the floor next to my bed.

I looked out the window and seen that it was night time. I walked to Daryl's room and opened the door. He was sitting on the edge of his bed and it looked like he was crying. I walked over and asked "Daryl, are you ok"? He looked up and in a quiet voice said "yeah". I asked "then why are you crying"? He said "just miss Merle". I sat next to him and gave him a hug. I said "it's ok to cry, dont hold it in like I do or else you will just turn bitter and not trust anyone. But I'm coming around and learning to trust again".

Daryl said "you probably think I'm a baby for crying". I leaned my head on his shoulder and said "it keeps you human and it shows that you are still compassionate and trusting". I kissed his cheek and said "goodnight brother". He smiled and said "goodnight sister". He gave me a hug then I got up. I walked over to the door and he said "oh yeah one more thing". I looked back and asked "what is it"? He smiled and said "you look beautiful with make-up on". I smiled and said "thank you". He laughed and said "my sis is growing up so fast". I smiled and walked out of his room.

I skipped Carl's room and went into Rick's room. I opened the door and looked at Rick. He looked at me and smiled. I said "goodnight". He said "goodnight Shelby". I was about to shut his door when he said "you look very pretty with make-up on". I smiled and said "thank you". 

Wow, I'm going to wear make-up all the time now that Ive gotten 2 compliments.

I quietly walked to Carl's room and knocked on the door. Carl said "come in". I opened the door and shut it behind me. Carl was sitting on his bed so I walked over and sat beside him. I wrapped my arms around him and I gave him a kiss. I took my lips off of his and I said "goodnight". He kissed me back qiuckly then said "goodnight babe". He kissed me again and said "you look really beautiful with that make-up on". I blushed and said "Rick and Daryl said the same thing". He smiled and said "because it's the truth". He kissed me again then somebody knocked on the door.
