Breaking Point ~Carl Grimes Love Story

↠ Back in Hell

✑ Beth's POV

"There there Judith, here's your bottle" I whisper silently to Judith, who whimpered in my arms. I directed the bottle to her mouth, and she immediately drank, trying to grasp the bottle with her own tiny hands. I rocked her back and forth gently.

Carol was making some food while Daryl, Rick, Glenn, Maggie and Dad joined at one table. Sasha and Tyreese were gone outside to probably run for some supplies.

"I'm finding out if that Claire chick still has her ass in the forest Nath and I went to yesterday" Daryl says simply, cleaning his arrows with a damp dirty cloth.

"You shouldn't go alone" Hershel says.

"That's why I'm bringi'n Arabella with me"

"Alright. I'll come too" Rick says and Daryl just shrugs.

The room turns completely silent. We just stayed there enjoying the morning silence before Carl comes in, with a pale face.

Everybody's gaze was on him curiously, as Rick stood up and walked to his son.

"Carl, what's happened?" He asks. Carl just looks up at him, before handing him a letter before turning around and walking away.

We all stared at Rick who read the letter's every word. He was awfully quiet and he had this expressionless face on.

We became impatient as 30 seconds have already gone by.

"Well? What is it?" Daryl asks patiently.

"She's gone" Rick whispers.

"What?"

"Arabella left!" Rick hisses, placing the letter on the table only for Daryl to read.

...

"Ugh! That girl is so stupid sometimes" Daryl angrily growls, pacing back and forth.

"Now let's be calm about this" Rick says calming him down.

"Calm?! The stupid bastard's got her, who knows what he's doi'n to her as we speak"

"We have to look for her" Carl walks in with a cold face on, placing his gun in his holster.

"Wait! We have to think this through" Rick says pinching the bridge of his nose.

"What do we have to think about?! We are looking for her!" Daryl snaps.

"She did say not to come for her, it was her decision" Rick replies.

"I'm not leaving her. She saved me, and I'm looking for her whether you like it or not" Daryl says.

"I'm coming too" Carl says marching up next to Daryl.

"Carl-"

"We're goi'n. She saved us too" Glenn says and steps forward with Maggie.
Rick sighs and looks down.

"Fine. I'm comi'n too. Sasha and Tyreese should stay behind. We leave before sunset" Rick finally says facing the group.

"We leave. NOW" Daryl growls.

"Before sunset, and I ain't changi'n my mind" Rick snaps back. Daryl gives him a glare before walking away into the cells.

Arabella left? She better be safe. She was another girl I could have fun with, and she saved my sister. She was part of family, and I really hope they find her and bring her back home.

✑ Arabella's POV
I panted as I pushed through the woods, the crunching of leaves and sticks heard after every slow step I take. So far, I've killed already 10 walkers, and my side burned with pain. Walker blood spilled down my arm, not my blood.
