Blake's POV


Things have been going smoothly ever since I killed Jessica. Since the police station was now abandoned, we went back and took all of their supplies, which were a lot. Maggie and Beth also started planting a garden with fruits and vegetables for us to eat. Another big thing that happened, or is going to happen is Maggie and Glenn's baby is supposed to be due any day now, so she's been taking it easy the past couple weeks.


I hear a knock at the door and when I open it I see Tommy. It was kinda awkward that he was here since we haven't really talked all that much since we got in our fight about killing Jessica.


"Can we talk?" He asked.


I nod and let him come in before shutting the door.


"I want to apologize." He told me. "I know I freaked out when you wanted to kill Jessica and I shouldn't have. At the time I just wanted to try to keep our humanity and I thought that killing her would make us lose that. But I was wrong and I'm sorry."


"You weren't exactly wrong." I told him. "I didn't realize it at the time, but I wasn't killing Jessica for the right reason."


"What do you mean?" He asked.


"I only wanted to kill her for revenge for killing Carol." I tell him. "I wasn't thinking about me or you or Carl or anyone else here. All I wanted was revenge."


"But it was the right thing to do." Tommy told me. "Because now we're able to live here without having to worry about her and her people coming back and attacking us. I'm just glad you were able to do it when I couldn't."


"Honestly, there was a part of me that wish I wasn't able to do it." I confess.


"How come?" Tommy asked me.


"Because I liked it." I tell him. "I liked killing Jessica. I like killing people in general, and that scares me. I'm scared that one day...I might lose control."


"Lose control?" He asked. "You mean like..."


"Killing you." I tell him. "Or Carl or my mom or anyone else I care about. I don't want to hurt any of you guys, but I'm scared I will. And I'm scared I'll like it."


"Bullshit." He tells me. "You might like killing people but you also care about people. You care about your mom and Carl and everyone else here. And no matter how much you enjoy killing people, I know you would never kill anyone you care about."


"Thanks Tommy." I said with a smile.


"Anytime." He told me before getting up and looking out my window.


"What is it?" I asked looking out the window.
