The Walking Dead: Eye for an Eye

Let's Just Talk

(Violets Pov)

"But I want to be near Clem I have to protect her." AJ said as I helped him into the bed and I smiled a bit at him.

"She's gonna be fine, I'll protect her for you tonight and then tomorrow you can protect her." I said. I was still going to watch her tomorrow either way but AJ needed to be around Clementine again.

"So we take shifts?" He asked and I nodded.

"Yep, we take shifts, I've got night and you've got day, deal?" I asked and he nodded a bit and then hugged me and I hugged him back.

"Keep a close eye on her." He said and I nodded.

"I promise I will." I told him and he let me go and laid back down. I looked over to Tenn, and Willy who also wanted to sleep in AJ's room, their own small sleepover so to speak.

"You guys good?" I asked as I went over to them and they nodded.

"Yea we're good." Tenn said and I nodded as I pulled the covers over him.

"You're acting so much like a mom." Willy commented on.

"Hm, no I'm not, just making sure you guys are warm like every year." I said and I saw Tenn smile a bit and I chuckled.

"Ok, bed time for you guys, tomorrow is gonna be a pretty busy day." I said and they all said goodnight as I went to the door and I waved to them. I closed the door and headed to my office. As I passed the others I told them to head to the music room for a small get together and they all nodded and I got inside my office. I looked around for the bottles I mentioned to Clementine. Once I found them hidden in the the old safe that no longer worked I headed down to the music room and heard Clem mention something school related as I opened the door. She smiles and we all go to sit in the center of the music room.

"Oooh So that's what you got for us." Louis said and I rolled my eyes.

"Let's be honest here we all need a drink, especially Omar, Aasim and Clementine." I said as I sat the bottles on the ground and I looked at Clementine who sat next to me.

"Alcohol hu?" She asked and I nodded.

"Last time I had a drink it was after AJ was born." She said and rubbed her neck a bit.

"How Old were you?" Louis asked as he opened one of the bottles, I think it was rum or something.

"Eleven.... But my first drink was this homemade whisky with Nick, 'it'll be your first and probably last' He was wrong but... he didn't stay around long enough." She said and I watched her a bit.

"Damn, see now that would have gotten you sent here." Aasim commented and she laughed.

"Maybe... not sure if my parents would have been ok so long as it was a sip." She said and she grabbed one of the bottles and it was fireball whisky.

"So what was the last drink you had?" I asked a bit curious.

"Rum... Jane was telling me a story on how she was drinking this... damn she couldn't remember it, but it had sugar crystals in it, she told me that glass looks a hell of a lot like sugar crystals too." She said and looked at the bottle a bit. Everyone was able to have their own bottle but if we wanted to share that was fine by us. So Clem took a huge swig of her drink and shook her head and made a face then handed me the bottle.

"So what other bad things have you done to your health?" Ruby asked and Clem smiled a bit.

"Got to smoke a cigarette, actually it became a nasty habit but not to the point where I smoked everyday you know, I stopped when I was.... Fourteen I think... it was around winter time I know that." She said and rubbed her neck. I took a drink from the bottle and handed it back to her and she held it. Then took another huge swig.
