~Carl's POV!~

      My Dad went on and on about what the group had found and the things we were going to do. To be honest with you, it was a complete bore to me! I looked over and watched Angel, her eye flickered to my face before a  soft blush crept to her cheeks and she sternly looked back at Rick. I chuckled under my breath and continued to stare at her. Her cap was taken off and her blonde hair was in a loose pony tail. I never saw her with her hair down before and made a mental note for later. Her intense light brown eyes were always empty and clouded with her attitude. Her slender jaw was clenched tightly and she was grinding her teeth. Her full pink lips looked soft and kiss able, and I knew I had to stop thinking.

    Her clothes were torn and soaked with blood and guts, anything from inside of a Walker was most likely on any of us. I sighed quietly and looked around the room. My eyes landed on Alice, who had her eyes locked on me the whole time. She gave me a small smile, and motioned for me to follow her. I hesitated before walking towards her and following her out the door. I took one last glance back at Angel and saw her focused on whatever my dad's boring speech was saying. I smirked and continued to follow Alice outside and into the sunlight. The sun was high overhead and just as hot as ever. I wiped the sweat from my forehead and stopped when she stood in front of a gate, far from the prison.

   "What did you need me for? Why are we all the way out here?" I asked curiously, seeing a different smile forming on her face. I felt one spread across my face also and soon we were both smiling at each other. You could tell she was beautiful. She had a tan face, full lips, sparkling eyes and wavy hair that swept to her neck. Anyone could tell she was breathtaking, but she didn't mean that to me. Angel did, that was all. My thoughts were interrupted when I felt her hand on mine, I looked down and then back at her, my eyebrow raising. She giggled and winked at me, making me chuckle and grin along with her. Her grip slipped from mine and I had the urge to grab it back.

What are you doing Carl? A voice sneered inside my head. Your betraying Angel, I thought you loved her!? What is wrong with you!?

 Did i love her? I knew I felt something towards her....but love? No, I don't love her. I cant love her, its not possible.

Do it Carl! Angel isn't the girl! Angel is shy and worthless, Alice is beautiful and is so much better for you! Angel is too shy to tell you how she feels, what she wants, Alice wont! Do it Carl, Do it.

    The voices lingered in my brain and I felt like I had a devil and an angel sitting on both shoulders. I looked at Alice who smiled sweetly at me and I looked back at the ground. I felt her gaze burning me so I looked up and met her soft eyes.

"So Carl.... What about you and Angel?" The question made me a little confused but I shrugged and decided, Why not? It wont hurt anyone.

"What about her?" She flashed me a perfect smile and my heartbeat sped up. I knew I had to get back to Angel, I wanted her and only her. Alice was nice, but Angel was my Angel.
