Bleeding heart

Like a fountain

Y/N POV:

My head was throbbing and when I opened my eyes everything was black. I took like a minute for my eyes to start focusing, and I started to see inside the room, I was pinned to a chair. I tried to get loose, but I was stuck to it with handcuffs. "Where the fuck am I?" I was thinking to myself. All my gear was removed, all I was dressed in was my underwear. I need to get out of here I thought.

The bright lights were turned on, they blinded me and inside it came three men. Two of the had weapons while the third one didn't, he was probably the leader.

"Welcome to our place" the girl said.

"Go fuck yourself" I responded.

The girl laughed and the punched me in the face.

"Not a very nice thing to say.... your mama should have raised you better. Well let me introduce myself... My name is Olivia, it's a pleasure to meet you".

"Still go fuck yourself..."

Olivia once again punched me in the face.

"Now... I have some questions for you, for your sake you better answer them honestly or else I will not be responsible for what happens next, you understand?" Olivia asked politely.

I looked at her and I felt the hate dwell up before I nodded.

"Good, now we'll start out easy... What's your name?" She asked.

I hesitated, but it must be better to stay on Olivias good side, since she seemed to be somewhat reasonable, "my name is Y/N" I responded quietly.

"Pretty name... now, next question, where do you come from and why where you and two other guys scouting around our base?"

"You honestly think I will tell you that?" Y/N with a voice that sounded like he was confused by how stupid she were.

Suddenly I felt a sharp pain at the side of my head, one of the guys hit me in the head with his rifle.

"I will try again, where do you come from?!" Olivia asked, with a more frustrated voice this time.

"Still I won't tell you, you can hurt me all you want, but I won't talk"

She nodded at on of the guys and the once again turned black.

Clementines POV:

I was sitting in the couch, and A.J was resting his head on my chest while I had my arm around him. Negan had told some of his soldier to clean out the apartment for me. It was quiet inside, I didn't really know what to say, after everything that happened, I couldn't even believe I was holding A.J in my arms again, I never thought I would do that again. I closed my eyes and tightened the grip around him.

"Thank you...." a quiet voice was heard.

"What?..." I asked.

"For saving me, I don't know what would have happened to me, if it wasn't for you" A.J said quietly.

"I'm so sorry for what you saw, I couldn't let him hurt you! I just couldn't. It wasn't right what I did, but I couldn't take the risk..." I started rambling.

"I understand... You were just trying to protect me, also he wasn't a nice person."

"What else have he done? Has he hit you before?" I asked. He looked at me with a scared and then tightly hugged me again. "Message received" I once again felt the anger, the hate, the urge to kill. If i had the opportunity I had killed him again in a heartbeat.

"I have heard you call me A.J a few times, why?" A.J asked.

"What do you remember from your childhood?" I had to ask him.

"Not very much, mostly everything is black. The only thing I remember is that a person were carrying me around when I was really small, I don't remember the name, like I said I was really small."

"I see, I know this may sound highly unlikely but that person who was carrying you around was me.... Trust me I know it's really hard to believe that"

"When those things attacked us and you saved us, there was something with your voice that made me feel safe, I don't know... it was somewhat familiar and when you said, you were the one taking care of me..." A.J mumbled.

"I know.. You must think I'm crazy, who would believe such a....." I was interrupted.

"Tell me... please tell me the story. I have no one anymore..." A.J said with a quiet voice.

I couldn't believe what I heard, "are you sure?"

"Yes" he simply responded.

"Okay then, your real name is Alvin Junior.... The story begins with me, I was eleven years old back then, and I was found by a group. Two of them were your parents. At that point your mother was pregnant with you. Their name was Rebecca and Alvin, you got your name from your father. Anyway our group was captured by an evil man, and your father was a hero and sacrificed his life so our group was able to escape, but he asked me to take care of you and Rebecca. Rebecca died later on when she gave birth to you, me and my friend Kenny took  care of you and he also took care of me. He was teaching me how to drive one time, unfortunately the car started spinning out of control, so we crashed which resulted in Kennys death. I was alone taking care of you at that point, until I met this new group. They said you were sick and were going to die, so they took you from me. I was then told you were alive, since then I been searching for you, well.... I was 13 years old at that point... now I'm 18. Well that's it.... that's the story." Clementine said and smiled.

Alvin was just looking at me at this point, he didn't say anything, well what do you say after something like that? Does it even sound trustworthy? I may come out like a crazy lady after all.

"Clem..."

"Huh..??" I managed to get out?

"Is it really you?...... Everything is blurry and I don't remember but I remember one point when there was a lot of talking people around me... screaming, I remember I called out to Clem because that were the only person I knew, I have some memory of that... But could it really be you? That time, was it you that were screaming?!" Alvin asked confused.

"Yes.. Yes.. That was me, I tried to protect you and they took you from me, I tried to get you back but I couldn't" I felt all the sadness dwelling up, and the tears was dripping down my cheeks.

"Then that must be why I felt like I did when you screamed at those things the other day, I knew I recognized your voice, but then...... It must be you.... Clem... my Clem."

He flung around my neck, hugging me tightly, I burst out crying. I never felt such a relief before, he actually trusted med. Suddenly he started whispering.

"I don't remember everything and it's very much to take in, but I believe you... I believe it was you who was screaming that night, that scream sounded horrible and it sounded very familiar when you screamed trying to save us. You think we could... you know be together again?.... just like we were before?".

"Of course, yes, that's why I am here in the first place, I never tried looking for you.... thank you, Axel, thank you for believing me, I know everything sounds crazy."

"If we are going to start over I want you to call me A.J since that is my real name that you gave to me" A.J said and smiled.

I felt the tears pouring out of me again, I need to stop this uncontrollably crying, I'm worse than a fountain at this point. "Of course I will... thank you" I managed to say and then hugged him again. A.J was yawning, "are you tired?". "A little, it's been a long day" A.J responded. "Tell me about it... we should go to bed, it's getting late".

I stood up from the couch and so did A.J and then we went into the bedroom. I crawled down into my side of the bed, A.J turned off the lights and then crawled down next to me. I nodded for him to come closer which he did, he put his head on my arm and I put my arms around him, holding him close to me. Then I rested my head on his, closed my eyes and quickly fell asleep.
