The Walking Dead: Eye for an Eye

Plans for the future

(Violets pov)

I watched her as she thought on my question. Would she marry me? Does she want to marry me? I mean we can't have a proper wedding and the people she knew were mostly gone except for AJ that is. I told her I would wait too and I will, if she's not ready now that's fine we have time.

"Do you remember when you asked me the first time?" She asked and I nodded. I was a god damn mess when I asked her, sweating a lot, a stuttering mess, everything. I chuckled a bit and nodded.

"Yea, I was stuttering a lot."

"Don't forget swearing, can't forget that too." She says and we both laugh a bit at that and I look at her.

"Yea now that I think about it, asking you to marry me while fishing didn't seem appropriate." I said and she laughed.

"You fell into the stream too, god it was adorable." She says and I turned a bit red and I looked out the window a bit then back at her.

"You still don't have to answer you know? You can answer when you feel like it." I say and she nods a bit and I hold my hands a bit and I get in my knees and I look at her.

"I.... yes I would love to marry you." She says and I smile a bit and I kiss her hand and I chuckle a bit.

"We can't tell the others yet, make it a surprise." I suggested and she nods and leans close to me and kisses me and I kiss her back.

"Now all I got to do is get you a ring." I said.

"Oh we don't need that."

"Come on, Louis is gonna make me get you one anyway, probably say something like 'people got to know you're together' or something like that." I said trying to mimic his voice and she chuckles a bit as she moves her hat off my head then places it to her left and leans her forehead against mine. I close my eyes a bit and I hear her breathing.

"Alright, we can go see if they have any in town, I think they would unless people looted them." She says and I nod as I kiss her hand gently. We just sat in silence for a bit and I got up slowly and made her move so I could sit behind her and she could lean her back against my chest. I hold her waist from behind as I lean my chin on her shoulder and she grabs her hat and looks at it a bit. I grab the alcohol and place it on the side after screwing the cap back on it and I hold her waist again.

"You know... Minnie is pretty good at sewing, maybe she could patch it up." I suggest and I watch her stroke one part of the hat a bit. It looked like a blood stain but I'm not to sure.

"I like it like this.... Basically shows all the hell its been through for the past.... God almost nine years." She says and I kiss her jaw gently.

"Yea.... You said it was your dads hat right?" I asked and she nods a bit.

"He said I could borrow it till he got back.... He was a good man." She says and I nod.

"Well he raised you." I said.

"Yea."

"I might not have liked my parents after I got sent here, especially my mom.... But I do wish I had something to remember them by.... Hell I can't remember what they look like." I said and closed my eyes to try and remember.

"I can't remember my parents voices.... I miss it when my mom use to sing me a lullaby she'd make up.... Helped me sleep when I was younger." She says and I look at her hands as they hold the cap more.

"You know, it's weird when I don't see you wearing that cap." I said and she chuckles.

"It's weird seeing you without that vest." She comments back and I smile.
