The walking dead Fanfic: The Estate

The Reids Part Six

Konnor and Presley eye the snow and Presley comments staring down the piling snow.

"We need shelter, we won't last the night out here..."

Konnor nods his head agreeing and shift motioning to a car as he tries the door and it opens. he smiles to himself and motions into it.

"after you.."

She stares him down and he smiles wide as she looks him over.

"if you try anything.."

She motions down to her gun and Konnor smiles as he asks his wife.

"how fast can you draw..."

He licks his lips and she rolls her eyes as she crawls into the back of the car. Konnor gets in after her shutting the door over, and Presley stares him over smiling as she eyes his brown hair and a crooked smile. She shifts shaking her head and Konnor asks.

"how long has it been?"

He goes to lean forward and she kicks him back.

"not, that long..."

Konnor sits back annoyed and Presley stares him down as she shifs her view as she asks.

"any ideas how to stay warm?"

Konnor smiles to himself and jokingly replies.

"Yeah, a few but none you want..."

Presley nods her head agreeing with her husband as she comments.

"I rather freeze to death..."

Konnor crawls over and she flinches as he sighs and motions to himself.

"body heat, I won't try anything.."

Presley feels tense as Konnor places his arm around her and feels herself warm up as he comments.

"I have a few blankets in my pack, we can use them and we should survive the night."

He gets the blankets from his pack and drapes it around himself and Presley as she asks him unsure if she should.

"how many girls did you rape out there?"

Konnor stops himself and thinks as he counts in his head and shrugs giving her a vague answer.

"a few..."

He wraps his arm around her pulling her close as he comments.

"does that scare you ley?"

she pushes his hand away and he pulls up the blanket as he comments staring at the back of his wife's head.

"I killed some people, raped some people, watched some people steal, murder, but I lived, and if I didn't do all that, I would be dead..."

Konnor leans forward whispering into Presley's ear.

"I survived and that doesn't mean I am proud of how I did it, I carry it with me..."

Presley leans back into Konnor's hold and goes to whisper to him but he puts his hand over her mouth and she hears the groans of the nearby walkers. She peaks her head up eyeing the herd dragging by the car and hears konnor.

"don't make a sound.."

He clasps his hand over her mouth and Presley eyes the walkers outside the car and hears konnor.

"try and rest..."

Presley feels konnor's hand come off her face and hears the walkers groans as she rests her head down onto the seat and slowly drifts off to sleep. 

***

She awakens hearing Konnor curse out and hears a loud bang. Presley sits up eyeing Konnor kicking up at the window and cursing to himself. She shifts staying under the blanket and asks.

"konnor?"

He stops and glances back to her as he nods his head.

"time to go, the snow stopped, we have a hike to the estate, and we shouldn't waste any more time.."

Presley stares at the back of Konnor head and replies.

"about last night."

Konnor stops himself and glances back at Presley as he remains quiet and a smile graces his lips as Presley looks away and comments.

"don't fucking say it konnor.."

He shrugs and turns back to the window as he grips the small baton in his hand and comments back at his wife.

"you were really cold, weren't you?"

Presley remains quiet and Konnor puts up his hood as he motions back to her and she covers herself as he knocks out the window with the baton. it shatters and he glances back at his wife as she quickly puts her shirt back on and zips her jacket. She stares down Konnor as she finally replies to him.

"it was freezing, don't get any ideas that I did that for any other reason..."

Konnor kicks out a shard of glass and smiles to himself as he whispers back.

"Whatever excuse you need, ley..."

Konnor pushes up the small bandanna covering his mouth and pulls up his hood as he crawls out of the car and lands in some heavy snow. He goes to get up and Presley throws his bag out at him and it lands close to his head and she smiles to herself.

"Guess I missed..."

Presley throws her own bag out and slowly pushes herself out of the car and Konnor catches her in his arms helping her out. She stands there gripping his forearms as she looks up into his eyes and he smiles under the bandana covering his mouth but she pushes him back and he trips over his bag cursing to himself.

"fuck..."

She looks down and he grabs his ankle feeling the old injuries come back and Presley looks over him as she whispers.

"you okay?"

He stretches out his leg and feels the pain in it but nods his head as he stares up to his wife.

"I'll live, but no more games ley lets get to where we need to go..."

She helps Konnor up and he drapes his bag around his shoulder and they both begin walking. A few walkers down the road stop and stare, eyeing the two walk and one whispers to the other.

"konnor....is....back.."

The other whisperer nods to his friend and whisperers back.

"alpha....wants him, alive..."

He turns and motions forward as a large horde of walkers and whisperers walk forward and the two men at the front limp on pretending to be walkers as they make their way towards the estate.
