*Present Day*

My mind raced as I wandered around the hallways. What if I am pregnant. What if this CDC thing doesn't work out and we are back on the road with barely anything and I'm pregnant. I picked my head up and a tear escaped my eye. What if the father of this baby dies. It's Shane's baby. What if something happens and he doesn't make it. How am I gonna raise a child alone, let alone in this world?

I bumped into someone and looked up. His bright blue eyes met mine and he looked concerned. "You coming?" He asked and I nodded. I followed him with my head down until he stopped. I glanced up at him to see he turned around and was now facing me. "Why you so upset all the sudden?" He asked and I glanced back down. "Did you finally figure it out?" He asked and looked up and watched him carefully. "Find out what?" I asked slowly and he tilted his head slightly. He rolled his eyes and glanced down at my stomach. Oh my god. He freaking knew. I took in a deep breathe and he looked down. "If it makes ya feel any better, I didn't tell anyone. These people are too dumb to figure it out by themselves so you should be good for a while, at least until you can tell your carrying." Daryl said and I closed my eyes.

I took deep breathes and when I opened my eyes Daryl was biting his nails. He glanced up and started walking towards the dinning room. I took a deep breathe and walked in after him. Everyone was waiting on the food but Jenner had broken out the wine. My brother was already half lite and I chuckled. Dale offered me some and I shook it away, knowing I can't drink just incase I am pregnant. Soon the food was really and we all sat down and are. The food was amazing and I stuck to soda with Carl and Sophia. I didn't really wanna get wasted anyways.

Everyone was talking and having a great time. Their smiles became contagious after a while and I started laughing. "You know, in Italy, children have a little but of wine with dinner. And in France." Dale said jokingly and I smiled at where this was going. "Well when Carl is in Italy or France he can have some then." Lori said and I rolled my eyes. "What's it gonna hurt? Come on. Come on!" Rick said drunkly and I laughed. "Lori, I would have to agree with my incredibly drunk brother." I said across the table and Rick stuck his tongue out at me.

I laughed as Lori snickered and moved her hand away from Carl's glass. Dale poured some wine into his glass and everyone went silent. I stood to watch his reaction. He took the smallest sip and instantly recoiled. I laughed as he shook his head trying to get rid of the taste. Lori took the wine and poured it into her own glass. "Well, just stick to soda pop there, bud." Shane said a few seats down from me and I snickered. "Not you, Glenn." Daryl said from behind me. I turned slightly to see Glenn looking at a bottle. "What?" He asked nervously and I giggled. "Keep drinking, little man. I wanna see how red your face can get." Daryl said and I laughed along with most of the men.

Glass clanged and I liked over at my brother. "It seems to me that we haven't thanked our host properly." Rick said as he stood up and I held my glass up. "He is more than just our host." T said and I smiled. There was a chorus of 'here here' and I heard Daryl behind me. "Booyah!" He said and I snickered and said booyah loudly along with him.

Everyone clanged their glasses together and Shane interrupted. "So when are you gonna tell us what the hell happened here, Doc? All the uh, the other doctors that were supposed to be figuring out what happened, where are they?" He said and I glanced over at hi. He was deadly serious. "We're celebrating Shane. We don't need to do this now." Rick said but Shane shot him down. "Whoa, wait a second. This is why we're here, right. This was your move, supposed to find all the answers. But instead, well, we found him. Found one man? Why?" Shane said and I sighed.
