Forever and ever (sequel to the redneck has feelings?)

Gave up

Carls pov

It's been 2 days since dad, Glenn, Maggie, and michonne went on a run. I tried to go too but of course dad said no. Why the hell can't he see that I'm not a kid anymore! I'm 17 years old for Christ sakes. So here I am sitting on the porch of the house we are held up in stabbing my knife into the banister. I heard someone clear their throat behind me. I turned and saw tayloR. I rolled my eyes and turned back towards the banister. Ever since this girls got here, she's been getting on my nerves. She won't leave me alone. She also is all over Connor and elaina. They aren't her family, they're mine and she thinks she can just come in and take em from me? Ha! They are the last thing I have left of kayla and Im not losing them. I wonder where daryl is? I heard footsteps get closer to me and saw her out of the corner of my eye lean against the banister next to me. I continued doing what I was doing, hoping she'd leave. She didn't.

"You trying to cut through the banister?" She joked.

I ignored her and continued stabbing it with my knife. She sighed,

"Ya know Connor and elaina are worried about ya"

I looked at her,"you need to stop"

"Stop what?" She asked,

"Leave them alone. You ain't their family, you ain't ever gonna be so stop trying." I said sternly.

"I'm just tryin to help until their mom gets..." She started to stay but I cut her off,

"She ain't comin back so ya need to stop getting their hopes up"

"Why are you so sure she and daryl are dead?" She asked.

"She hasn't come back, she ran into a herd. She's gone. Dead." I whispered.

"You don't seem to have much faith in yer sister." She whispered.

I glared at her,"I just accept what it is and don't live in some fantasy land like everyone else" I snarled.

"Well when I met daryl, he seemed like he could take care of himself." She said.

"You don't know nothin" I said.

"She's still alive and so is he" she said.

I stood up tall infront of her,"why are you even here"

"Cause I was given a chance. I'm stronger than you think Carl grimes." She said.

"Will you just leave me alone" I glared.

She sighed and looked into my eyes with her bright blue ones. She started to turn away when I leaned on the banister again. She stopped before she was off the porch,

"If you love your Family you should never give up on each other."

"O yea? Where's yours?" I grunted.

"I gave up on them" she whispered and walked away.

I was takin back by her answer, but went back to my work on the banister. I sighed and about turned to go inside when I heard small, piercing screams. The twins. My heart sped up and I immediately jumped over the banister and landed on the ground as I ran towards the crys. No I couldn't lose them too,

"Connor! Elaina!"
