Lovely Nightmare (Carl Grimes FanFic)

Chapter 4: Back

We arrived back at the prison.

Ha. Funny how fast things change. For the past 2 years my home was everywhere. Now it's a prison with my favorite uncle.

That reminds me.

Where's Merle?

We got back up to the building and I was a little cold.

"Emma?" Daryl yells, "You back".

"No sorry I'm still at walmart" I say sarcastically.

"Haha very funny" he says walking over to me.

"Daryl... Where's Merle?" I ask.

His face goes down.

"When this first started.. We went on a run to atlanta, and well he was being annoying and punching people so Rick handcuffed him to the roof. Then Tdog dropped the key and locked the roof. When we came back his hand was the only thing there." he said.

my heart dropped.

"Who's T-Dog?" I ask.

"He died saving Carol a few days ago" he says.

"Okay I'm gonna go clean my cell now." I say.

I scrub all the dirt out of it and I spray Lysol everywhere.

I clean my bed and put a sheet that Glenn found on the two bunks and a pillow case.

Something is missing.

Paint.

Prisoners usually paint as a project.

I'm gonna go find some.

I sneak out into the tombs, as they call them.

I kill every walker I find.

Then, the paint room.

They have every color.

I decide I'm gonna paint it yellow.

THEY HAVE CARPET FOR CELLS? Im so getting that.

I bring my supplies back and I got weird looks.

"Emma where did you find this?" Beth runs up and asks me.

"There was a supply room and I feel like decorating" I say.

"Oh... okay" she says.

"Wanna help" I ask.

"YES" she screams, probably louder than she meant to.

"okay" I say and giggle.

"let's go" she says and runs into my cell.
