Y/n's Pov

When we got to their little group, I glared at every person. Evan looked at me with a calm smile, whispering to me. "Shh.. If anything goes wrong, we will handle it." I nodded and noted each feature of every person. They all looked like they could handle walkers, their eyes staring at me with caution.

Addy introduced us to the group. "Guy, these are the people that cleared out the rest of the Z's. They might be joining us." The guy with a cocky smile started walking towards me. "You, miss, can join me anytime-"

I gripped my knife, which was strapped to my leg. That instantly made everyone tense up. Evan held a hand up in defense. "It's ok, she doesn't mean it. We have just-" He looked over at me, staring at the cocky man with hate. "-we have had a rough journey."

The man in charge nodded in understanding. "Just.. Lower your weapon. Murphy doesn't mean it, he's just an ass." The guy named Murphy looked back at him with annoyance.

I scanned my eyes over the group again. They all looked tense. Evan looked down to me. "So?" I sighed, nodding. He smiled looking at the man in charge. "If you don't mind us coming along..."

The man in charge smiled down at us. "The more the merrier. I am Garnett, this is Warren, Doc, Murphy, Cassandra, and you have met Addy and Mack. Ah, and here comes 10k. Where you guys heading to?"

Evan shrugged. "Just anywhere that isn't here." Garnett nodded. "That's smart, this place isn't safe." Evan nodded back and Warren twirled her finger in the air.. I looked over at the male Who was running towards us. He had two gas canisters. My eyes widened seeing him. Tommy.

-

Tommy's eyes stared down at the waterfall with sadness."Just promise me you'll return." I nodded. "I promise."

-

He ran to me. He looked down at me, setting the canisters down and instantly scooping me into his arms. "Y/n!" I couldn't answer him, shock was written all over my face.. I couldn't even hug back. "I thought.. I thought you were dead!.."

He smiled down at me, hugging me again.

"Everyone load up. We leave.. Now." Mack ran over and put the canisters in the back while Evan and I climbed in the back of the pickup with Tommy, Mack, and Addy.

Tommy, stared at me quietly as I sat in the corner opposite of him, leaning my head against the cab. Evan sat next to me, tilting my head with one hand to lean on him. I looked up at him, nodding gratefully.
