Property Of Negan

Chapter Eleven

It's been at least a week since (Y,n) has been accepted at The Hilltop. Alexandria? Not so much. They've been through a hell of a lot more than the Hilltop has and having their leaders son date Negan's wife was not sitting well with most of their people.

"Why did you name him Anthony?" Carl asked while grabbing her swinging hand as they walked down the road finally breaking the peaceful silence that surrounded them.

"It's always been one of my favorite names" She answered back swinging their hands back and forth causing him to smile, 

"That's cool--"

"Plus he's named after my favorite Avenger".

Carl stopped walking and stared at her as she held in her smile and looked away from him but it didn't last long as he started to laugh making her do the same, "He is going to be so mad when he finds out" Carl chuckled bringing her hand up to place a kiss on the back of her knuckles, 

"Well he isn't going to find out" she pushed him playfully falling onto his side once he didn't move.

This was one of the moments they cherished. The silence that washed over them making it seem like the world was the way it used to be back then, but then some walker always had to roam by making them snap back into reality, 

Carl let go of her and started walking towards it but she held onto his arm, "Just let it pass, we shouldn't waste our energy" He listened to her and allowed it to walk past, he looked down at her as she looked up at him with a smile silently thanking him for listening.

"You know..." (Y,n) started stepping in front of him while taking his hands as she walked backward lightly biting her lip, "Sasha and Jesus are taking care of Tony". Carl chuckled and let his girlfriend pull him forward,

"What about it?" He asked, wanting her to go on.

"We don't have to go back right away..." She looked to the side as he pulled her towards him causing her to press against his chest, 

"(Y,n)... Are suggesting we stay out here for the day?" He asked as his hands went towards her waist still walking forward.

"Every parent needs a break from their kids" She replied, moving back and taking his hand directing Carl to the woods, she didn't exactly have an idea as to where they were going but she had a hunch where an old house sat waiting to be used.

With their walk, they each took turns saying random things, pointing stuff out, even climbing trees to give their feet a rest.

It was times like this that made them feel at home, that made them feel like this is as normal the world was going to get.

This is their world and the Dead are just in it.

"Do you think there's any food?" She asked opening the house door as Carl drew his pistol with a silencer at the end, 

"If not--" He opened the first door down the hall, making sure there was no walker or person inside. "I can go hunting".

As (Y,n) knocked on the wall by the kitchen a walker came stumbling out, swiftly, she pulled out her knife from her holder and stabbed it in the head before turning back to Carl. "You never told me you could hunt" he walks from out the hallway with a smirk on his face, 

"Yeah, an old friend of my dad's taught me. Along with Daryl, I can go catch something if you want" He cornered her against the counter, both hands on each side as she looked into his eyes trying not to smile before she stopped and started thinking.

"I never thought I would get out of that place..." her hands grabbed the loops of his belt bringing him closer just trying to make sure that everything was real, "I never thought my baby would grow up in a safe place surrounded by people who cared for him, I never thought I'd have a family",
