Samantha shot up in her bed, tears streaming down her face "Daddy!" She shouted wanting her father to comfort her.Rick heard the shout coming from his daughter's room and ran upstairs, Sam was sitting up in her bed crying her eyes out.
"Aww, did you have a nightmare baby?" Sammy nodded, Rick sat down beside her and pulled his daughter into his lap.
"What was it about?" Samantha sobbed quietly and leaned into her father more, she mumbled something but he didn't know what it was. Rick lifted her head up and wiped away her tears
"What did you say?" He asked now that her face wasn't in his chest.
"Negan"-
"What happened?" Michonne asked Rick, she noticed that he looked angry and worried at the same time. Must've been something bad because he would never be mad at Sam
"Negan knows about her" was all he said before leaving the house. Michonne stood still for a minute before running after Rick
"What do you mean he knows?" She asked walking beside Rick.
"When Sammy was kidnapped at the prison Negan was one of two men that had her" Rick was fuming inside but he knew that he couldn't do anything about it.
"I need to have a word with-" Rick said but Michonne interrupted him
"You can't do that Rick and you know it" She was right, confronting Negan about it would only make him angrier, he might even try to take Samantha back.-
Rick had to leave again which Sam did not like one little bit, Daryl and Michonne both went with him. Carl was taking a shower at the moment and Shane was exploring Alexandria so Sammy was alone in her bedroom, she was just playing with the toys she had in there. The house was quiet well besides the sound of the shower running but that's it
"Carl?" She called out wondering if he was out of the shower yet but there was no response. Samantha shrugged and quietly walked down the stairs, she reached the front door but couldn't get to the handle, Sam huffed, she walked into the kitchen and grabbed a chair. The little girl placed the chair in front of the door and opened it slowly, she hopped off of the chair and ran out of the door wanting to explore. Since everyone she knew was gone or busy Sammy had to either explore by herself or find someone new to go with. Looking around the community it was pretty empty since most of the adults were out fighting with her daddy.
"Fine, I go by myself " Samantha sighed, she looked around the area for a way out but found nothing, the front gate it was unfortunately. Sam walked up to the front gates and pulled on the metal door, it opened a tiny bit, just enough for her to slip through and close the door behind her. She didn't bring anything with her because no one would let a three year old near any weapons for a good reason.
"Oh! I wike this one" Sammy exclaimed quietly, there was a pointy stick laying on the ground surrounded by other sticks and leaves. Samantha picked up the stick and swung it playfully, she pointed it downwards and started skipping through the woods. It took a while but eventually she found flowers growing
"Woah, so pretty" she sat down in a small little grass area and slowly leaned back until she was laying down surrounded by flowers.
"Are you by yourself?" A voice asked from behind Sam, the little girl flinched and grabbed her small pointy stick, she turned around slowly and saw a very tall man. She nodded but kept the stick pointed at the man just in case
"Hey I'm not gonna do anything, I'm just worried about you here all by yourself" Sammy moved the stick away, she didn't fully trust the man but he didn't have any weapons. The man held his hand out
"I'm Siddiq" he smiled widely and waited for the little girl to shake his hand back.
"Samantha" she shook his huge hands down smiled back, he seemed nice and he didn't look like he would hurt children. Siddiq grabbed some flowers and turned around for a couple of minutes.
"What are you doing?" Sam asked confused, she didn't get an answer but he turned around a couple minutes after. He had a beautiful crown made out of flowers.
"Who that for?" Sammy asked curiously as she stared intensely at the flower crown."You" Siddiq placed the crown on Samantha's head, he watched as her smile grew wide and how her eyes lit up. The little girl couldn't stop smiling
"Can you teach me?" Sam asked hoping that the answer was yes. Siddiq thought about it for a minute before nodding his head
"Y..yeah I can"- (hours later) -
"You should go home, I'm sure your mommy and daddy are worried sick about you" Samantha nodded, she didn't say anything about not having a mother though because Michonne is kind of like her new mom. Siddiq stood up and held his hand out for the little girl to take which he did
"Where's your home?" Sam asked the tall man.
"Uh.. I don't have one" Siddiq mumbled but it was loud enough for Sammy to hear, she frowned and crossed her arms. Samantha smiled when an idea popped into her head
"You have a bed?" Siddiq nodded wondering where this was going.
"Then I stay with you" that idea sounded great to Sam but to Siddiq it didn't, she was only three and she should be with her family. Siddiq shook his head.
"No, I'll walk you home okay?" Sammy quickly shook her head too.
"No you'll be all alone" Siddiq sighed and after a couple of minutes he finally nodded his head, he grabbed Samantha's hand, they both started to walk towards wherever he was hiding out. It took a couple of minutes but they eventually got there
"What this place?" Sam asked as she tilted her head, the place had cars and some weird machine things. Siddiq looked at her confused before he remembered that he didn't know what life was like before
"It's a gas station, people used to fill up their cars here" Sammy made a face when he said that.
"Then why can't we fill up cars now?" She asked very confused at this point, Siddiq sighed, this was way too much to be explaining to a little kid. He shushed her and pointed to something in front of them, a walker, it spotted them and started to growl and move faster. Siddiq grabbed a knife that he had hid and approached the walker, Siddiq stabbed the walker in the head and watched as its corpse fell to the ground.
"You killed him!" Samantha gasped her eyes wide open and her mouth hanging, Siddiq shook his head and walked over to the little girl. He took her hand again and walked them both inside the gas station
"He was a walker, he would've hurt the both of us" Sam has heard James and Negan use that word before but she's never seen a walker in person.
"But why?" Sammy asked wondering why the man would want to hurt them since he didn't know them. Siddiq sat down on his sleeping bag, he held out his hand for the little girl to hold while she sits down.Samantha sat down beside him, she could already feel herself getting sleepy so she leaned against Siddiq.
"Are you getting tired?" Sam nodded her head and yawned right after, she moved closer to Siddiq because he was really comfortable. Siddiq moved and placed the little girl in his sleeping bag, he went to leave but Sammy grabbed his shirt
"Can you stay here?" Siddiq nodded and laid down on the dirty ground beside her.
"Goodnight Siddiq" Samantha mumbled tiredly, she shut her eyes and passed out almost immediately due to being so tired. Siddiq smiled to himself, he rolled onto his side facing Sam and pulled her a little closer to himself.A/n
