Safe Haven ~Carl Grimes Love Story~

~13~ Together

"So I heard from Daryl" Beth suddenly appears in my cell with Judith as I put on my shoes.

"Heard what?"

"That you kissed Carl!" She squeals.

I laugh and roll my eyes. "Yeah, well we did"

"So you guys are officially together?" She asks. I frowned. He hasn't asked me to be his girlfriend just yet.

"Actually Beth, he hasn't asked me"

"Yet" She winks and I laugh at her.

Judith tries to get my attention as she struggles to speak and holds her arms out at me. I laugh and take her from Beth's arms.

"Hey li'l lady, how are you doing today?" I smile a little and she claps her hands.

"Do you mind watching her for a bit?" Beth asks.

"Nope, not at all"

"Thank you so much, I'll be back" She says before disappearing. Gosh, I wish Carl was here right now. Sadly, he's doing his perimeter watch and a few hours after, it'll be my turn for perimeter watch. Judith cuddles onto my chest before yawning. I smile and kiss her forehead, keeping her close.

"Go to sleep li'l lady" I whisper and started swaying back and forth.

"Just close your eyes, the sun is going down,
You'll be alright, no one can hurt you now,
Come morning light, you and I'll be safe and sound" I sing softly, my voice echoing in the cell. I hear Judith snoring lightly and I smile.

"You're really good with her" A voice says and I flinch, turning to see Jason standing there.

"Thanks" I reply.

"So, how did you end up here?"

"To make the long story short, I rescued Carol and she rescued me" I reply, not really in the mood to talk to him right now.

"Ah, you're lucky" He says stepping close to me, causing me to back up nearer against the wall. His eyes were glued to mine.

"You're really pretty, you know that?" He asks reaching up a hand to place some hair away from my face. I glared at him.

"Jason, I think you should go" I mumble but he doesn't listen, he just continues to gaze creepily. Judith starts stirring and I sway.

"Why don't you sing again? It makes her relaxed" Jason smirks. I gulp and try to gather the strength to say something.

"J-Just close your e-eyes..." I sang.

"That's not how you sang earlier" Jason snaps and backs me up against the wall. Tears in my eyes start to form and my heart starts beating rapidly. What was he going to do?

"Jason, please leave me a-alone" I say and he just chuckles.

"Why? It's the only alone time we get. Your lover boy isn't around, what he doesn't know won't kill him" He says leaning closer and I turn my face to the side.

"Aw come on, don't be like that" He softly whispers in my ear, his hands on the sides of my waist, trapping me.

"Jason..." I mumble.

"Is there a problem in here?" I hear the familiar deep voice I always found comfort in. Except when he spoke, he had a tone of anger. Jason pulls away and I look at Carl thankfully as he held a sniper gun in his arms, glaring at Jason. Jason glares at Carl and then the gun.

"No, there isn't a problem. Just saying how lovely Nathalia sings to little Judith" Jason says placing his hand on Judith's head, but I pull her away from his touch.
