What if it's us~ Carl Grimes Gay

Chapter 4

Max Dixon's POV

We all continued to eat the fish. Some were talking while others sat quietly. I was one of the quiet ones. I was just too worried about my dad and Merle. They be been gone all day. Are they okay? Did something go wrong? Are they coming back? Are they dead?

Suddenly there was a scream. I looked up just to see a roamer sink it's teeth into Amy's arm. Everyone instantly got up and started screaming as more roamers came out of the woods. I quickly started to shoot them with my crossbow when I heard Carl scream my name. I look over and saw a roamer about to bite his neck.

I quickly shot it and ran over to him. I grabbed Carl's arm and held him close to me. "Do not leave me side!"I yell at him as I shoot any roamer near by. "Get to the RV!"Shane yells. I look up and see everyone at the RV. But there were to many Roamers in our way to get there.

"This way!"I yell taking Carl to a nearby tree. I quickly lift him up into the tree before climbing up myself. Carl was crying and freaking out. "Hey, it's gonna be okay."I say as I hug him close. Then a few roamers started clawing at the tree we were in. I quickly aim my crossbow at them and shoot them down.

Then gunshots started going off like crazy. I look up and see Rick, Glenn, T-Dog and dad coming into camp and shooting down the walkers. I sling my crossbow on my back and hold Carl close to my chest as I rub his back. "Its gonna be okay. It's gonna be okay."I whisper as he continues to cry.

Soon it goes silent. I look up and see everyone looking around to see who's left. "Carl!!"Lori yells realizing Carl's not at her side. "Max!!"My dad yells. I climb out of the tree as Carl wraps his arms and legs around me. I then walk towards everyone else. "We're right here!"I call out as everyone turns to see me with Carl in my arms. "Thank god."Lori says as her and Rick take Carl out of my arms.

Then my dad pulls me into a hug. I break away from his arms with one question on my mind. "Where's Uncle Merle?"I ask as I look at them. "He's alive."Dad says. "Yeah, but where is he?"I ask again. "He left before we got there."Dad says. "God dammit. This wouldn't have happened if you didn't handcuff him to a roof."I growl at Rick.

"It's not his fault."Lori says. "I wasn't  talking to you now was I?"I ask. "Don't talk to her like that."Shane says angrily. "I wasnt talking to you either asshole."I reply. Shane glares at me while my dad smirks. I look around and see Amy dead on the ground with Andrea crying over her.

We lost a lot of good people tonight. Soon Morales starts to move the bodies and soon everyone was helping to take care of the dead. We built a fire and put the roamers on it while we buried our own. I ignored everyone around me as I worked. I was still pissed over Merle being missing. He would be here if Rick didn't handcuffed him to a roof.

I was brought back to reality by my dad yelling, "Y'all left my brother for dead. You had this coming!"Dad yells before walking away. "A walker got him! A walker bit Jim!"Jacque yells. I quickly go over with my crossbow raised as Jim looks at all of us scared.

"Show it to us! Show it to us!"dad yells. Then Jim picks up a shovel to defend himself. T-Dog quickly snuck up behind him and grabbed him. My dad lifts Jim's shirt up to reveal a bite on his stomach. "I'm okay. I'm okay. I'm okay."Jim repeats. Everyone backs up from him thinking what to do.

Everyone else got together and started to talk about what to do. I stood off to the side and just took this all in. This camp used to be safe and peaceful. Now it wasn't. We needed to leave. We needed to find a safer place to stay. Then Rick told us about the CDC.

Said that they should still be up and running. That's when Morales and his family decided they weren't coming with us. We all said bye before heading off. I was in the pickup truck with my dad and his motorcycle in the back while Shane was in his jeep, Lori, Rick, Carl, Carol, and Sophia in the station wagon and everyone else in the RV.

But on the way the RV broke down. We all stopped and walked up to it to see how bad it was. Dale started to work on it while Rick checked on Jim. Then Rick came back out of the RV saying Jim wanted to stay behind so we all allowed him too. Rick and my dad carefully carried him out and against a tree on the edge of the woods.

Everyone said their goodbyes before we headed back to Dale. Jim was a little werid but I'm gonna miss him. He was a good man. Dale had fixed the RV so we all got back into the cars and headed to the CDC. After a couple of hours of  driving, we arrived. We all grabbed our bags and headed up to the doors just as the sun started to set.

There were dead walker bodies everywhere and it smelt really bad. We soon got to the metal doors of the CDC. Rick and them tried to open them but they wouldn't. Nobody was here. Then walkers started to come. Dad and I quickly shot them down with our crossbows. Everyone then started to freak out asking where we could go now.

We soon decided on Fort benning.  We were about to go when Rick said he say the camera move. Then he started to beg to the camera to let us in and banged on the doors. Everyone was yelling at him to leave. More walkers were coming so dad and I continued to shoot them down.

Then the door opened.
