Nightmare

"I went outside of the fence and I got a bitten," Lilly began to cry.

"It's ok we will tell Carol," Rose grabbed Lilly's hand and walked to the area she saw Daryl go.

"Carol!" She yelled. Rose finally ran into Carol and Daryl.

"Lilly got bit," Rose said as she tugged on Carols shirt.

"What! Lilly how did this happen?" Carol seemed surprised.

"I went outside the gate," Lilly cried.

"It's ok baby, we can go fix you up," Carol grabbed Lilly's hand and walked away.

"You did the right thing telling me and Carol you know that right Rose," Daryl had a stern look on his face. Rose nodded her head.

"Good, now Carl has been looking for check your cell block ok," Daryl motioned his head towards the wall as he picked up some more fruit out of his bowl. Rose suddenly hugged him the ran off in search of 'Lover Boy'

"Carl!" She called out.

"Rose there you...." Carls voice trailed off and he got silent. "Wow, you look nice." Carl smiled as he complimented her.

"Thanks lover boy, what's for dinner?" Roses cheeks got rosie.

"Daryl caught a deer so deer," Carl said sarcastically.

"Sounds good, where's Rick?" Rose asked. "Getting us food," Carl grabbed Roses hand. Together they held hands and walked to their cell block. Rose stopped at the cell door. "Hey Carl, does this mean we're dating?" Rose asked. Carls face got bright red. "I guess so why?" He shrugged. "Just wanted to see if you would agree," Rose smirked back.
**************************
Rose was outside in the shop where Carl and Rick had found her.

"Rose get over here NOW!" The voice was to deep to be Ricks.

"Coming Bruce!" Rose replied. Not Bruce anyone but her stepdad.

"Come here, so the group and I have been talking and I don't know how to tell you but your mom died," Roses eyes began to water.

Bruce opened his arms. She ran into his arms.

"Uhh, B Bruce?" Rose backed out of the hug. Suddenly her shirt was filling with blood. "You stabbed me Bruce why?" Rose looked at her ribs and saw a knife. "You were a liability it had to be done," Bruce had the look of triumph on his face as he spoke. He walked away. "Wait don't just leave me I don't have any weapons Bruce, I am going to die!" Rose cried. The roar of a car, great he wants me to die. She thought. Walkers came from all directions. She ran inside a building and slammed the door. She quickly searched the area and found a gun. Rose struggled to open it and found it had 5 bullets she turned as flesh eaters walked through the door. She hit one then another until she ran out of bullets. "Crap a walker fell on top of her. She pushed it off and ran out she turned her head and ran into another it grabbed her and bit her! She screamed. Her eyes flickered open her face wet with tear stains and sweat as her curtain was nearly ripped off. "Rose! Are you ok?" Carl had his gun out. Pointed it at her as she had wiped tears off of her cheeks. "I just had a bad dream the worst part is it almost was completely real!" Rose sniffled. Carl walked in and lowered his gun. "What happened Rose?" Carl asked. "When you found me I had a stab wound, well my step dad Was kind of crazy and he stabbed me, he also brought a whole bunch of flesh eaters on top of me I kill most them, but one of them bit me in the dream," Roses voice shakes as she spoke. "I will never let that happen to you ever, I promise." Carl held out his pinkie to Rose, she took it in hers and shook it. "I'll stay with you until you fall asleep, you'll be safe with me I promise," Carl was finally showing Rose his soft side and she enjoyed it. "I'm in love with you Carl and there's nothing you can do about it," Rose kissed Carl on the cheek after she spoke. "I'm in love with you too Rose," Carl placed his hand on roses cheek and rubbed his thumb across her forehead. Slowly she drifted into what we call sleep. Slowly Rose opened her eyes. Carl was gone and the prison was still. "Christ said to Abraham....." Hershel was reading the bible to Beth and Maggie. Rose grabbed her knife she strapped it to her hip then put in her gun holster. She finger combed her curly hair then walked out of her cell. "Where is everyone?" Rose said with a yawn. "Carl and Rick went on a run Daryl is outside with Judith and Carol," Beth quickly replied. Rose nodded her head and began to walk outside. As soon as she stepped outside she saw Daryl holding Judith and feeding her. "Good girl Little ass kicker," Daryl was surprisingly really good with the baby. "Hi Daryl!" Roses face glowed as she spoke. "Still snowing I think ass kicker likes snow," Daryl had a smile on his face letting words flow freely. Hey so thanks for dinner last night I guess we got lucky," Rose looked up at Daryl she saw him as a brother maybe even a father figure. "Luck ain't got nothin to do with it, Cherokee," He placed Judith's bottle on a table. Rose stepped out into the snow. She felt the world spin around her as the snowflakes touched her hair and skin. She felt as if none of this happened no zombies food water a bed. She dreamed it was a hotel and she meet these people and they adopted her. A car slowly pulled up to he front gate of the prison. "Rose let Rick Carl and Michonne in," Daryl yelled as he took one hand off of Judy into his pocket and threw the prison keys at her. The trance was lifted and Rose ran and grabbed the keys, she quickly opened the prison gate. Rick stopped the car and Carl stepped out. "Lover boy,"'Rose slammed the gate shut and ran up to him. He opened his arms dropping a bag of food on the ground and they embraced each other. "Wake me up next time ok," Rose whispered in Carls ear. She picked up the basket Carl dropped and began to walk towards Daryl and Judith. "Come on Lover boy!" She yelled not turning to face him.
