*MEGAN'S POV*

We've been going on these stupid train tracks for two hours. Carl would look back at me but every time I look at him back, he turns away. I wonder what's wrong with him. I walk up beside him and slightly bump into him. "Hey. You ok?" I asked. "Just fine." He said and walked a little faster to get to Michoone. What in the hell was that? I shrugged it off and walked past them to Rick. "We should head into the woods shortly. It's going to get dark soon." He said looking down at me. I nodded and kept walking along side Rick. I could hear Michoone and Carl talking but I couldn't really understand what they were saying. Rick started walking off the track, so I followed. We stopped in a little clearing and I started working on a small fire. Once I got the fire going, I got out some cans of food. "On a scale of one to ten, how hungry are y'all?" Rick asked. "Twenty" Carl said. "Eleven" Michoone said and looked over at Rick. "Man, y'all don't know how to count." I laughed. Rick and Michoone Chuckled but Carl just stared at me. "Um. Rick,could you take over for me? I need to go talk to Carl." I said. Rick nodded and I got up. I walked over to a tree with Carl following me. "Look, I don't mean to be pushy or annoying but-" "Then don't be." He cut me off mid sentence. Oh no he just didn't. "Excuse me?" I said letting the anger inside me show. "What do you want from me?" Carl snapped. "I want to know What in the hell is wrong with you and why your acting like you are." I said bitterly. Carl looked at me with hatred and said "Maybe I'm acting this way because I just lost my sister. Maybe I'm acting this way because I just lost my home maybe I'm acting this way because we're out on the fucking road again and I'm tired of this bullshit of always running, being scared, being cowards." "Do you not think I feel the same way? I just lost my father. I just lost my home and now I think I'm about to lose the love of my life because he's being a jerk." I screamed. "You're not the only one thats lost someone or something. I always go by what Hershel said, we all have jobs to do and we don't have time to get upset. Our job is to look for the others and we cannot get upset if we can't find them or we do find them and they're dead it doesn't matter we all have jobs to do so we have to stick to them and try not to get upset because getting upset makes you stupid,and stupid gets you killed. That's just a fact of how it is now. Survival of the fittest Carl. Either survive or you don't. We don't have time to get upset." I stated blankly. Carl just stared at me. "Your right. I....It's just that this morning. After breakfast. I've just been out of it you know. I just really really miss her." He said letting a single tear fall. I pulled him into a tight hug and shushed him, trying to calm him down. "Come on. Let's go eat." I smiled at him. He sniffled and nodded. "Are you guys ok now?" Rick asked between bits of corn. I nodded and kissed the back of Carl's hand.

After we ate it started getting dark so I decided I would keep watch. "I'll go with you." Carl said. I nodded and walked out a little ways away from the camp. "I'm glad we're away from there" Carl said facing me. "Why?" I questioned. Carl gave me a devious smirk and stepped closer to me. I took a step back with every step he took twords me. Finally I was up against a tree. Carl kept coming closer until he was only about a few inches from me. He reached out and grabbed my waist pulling me twords him. "Carl wh-" I was cut off by him kissing me passionately. I wrapped my arms around his neck and I slowly backed up never breaking the kiss. I hit the tree and pulled away for some air. "I wasn't done." Carl said swiftly leaning in taking my bottom lip in between is teeth and tugging gently. I blush and look down hoping Carl won't see. He lifts my head up and looks at my face. He smirked and started kissing me again. He placed his hands on the small of my back and slowly started making his hand go down until he had his hand on my butt. I gasped but Carl didn't stop there. He pushed himself up against me which made me gasp big-time (*wink wink*) Carl did another one of his famouse smirks into the kiss and pulled away. "Your so fucking adorable." He smiled at me. By now I was blushing like crazy because of his..... you know, pushing up against me. I think he could tell why I was blushing because he leaned in and whispered in my ear, "what do you want?" He growled suductively and lightly bit my ear lob. "C-carl please." I wimpered. God do I sound thirsty. Carl smiled at me and carried me farther away from the camp. He set me down and got down to hover over me. We stared kissing againg and. Well. You know.

"Were did you guys go lastnight?" Rick asked raising an eyebrow. I looked over to Carl and he gave me a  reassureing nod. "We thought we heard something so we walked out a little more to see What it was" Carl said still looking over at me. "Sure" Michoone said trying not to laugh. Rick snickered and looked down. "Um..... I....I think we should go now." I stammered. "Ya. It's going to get dark soon. And the sooner we get going, the sooner we can get to Terminus." Carl backed me up. Michoone and Rick nodded and we started getting our stuff together and went on.

"We should stop here for tonight." Rick said dropping his bags next to a car. Carl nodded and checked the car. "It's clear," he said walking back to me. "Okay. Me and Michoone will make a fire," Rick said, "Carl, will you go with Megan to find something before it gets too dark?" He finished looking at us. "Ya, come on Megan." Carl said dragging me to the woods.

"I have a squirrel for each of us." I said setting them down next to the fire. "Good. Thank you. Now how about you and Carl go get some rest? We have a long day ahead of us." Rick suggested. "Carl you go on, I need to talk to Rick." I say sitting down next to Rick. Carl hesitated for a minute then nodded and went to the car. "Rick. Do you think we will ever find the oth-" "Stop that. I know we will and we will find your dad too" Rick cut me off. I nodded and stood up. "Claimed!" I hear someone yell and then a piece of cold metal on the back of my head: a gun. "Shit." I mumble.

People started coming out of the woods. All men, all looking thirsty for blood. The man that had the gone to Rick looked to be the leader. "You killed one of our men, now I'm gonna have to kill you" he said in a low voice. A fat, creepy man had Carl on the ground.

I couldn't take it. I wanted to scream and cry, but I know that wouldn't be good. "Let my boy and girl go. Now!" Rick demanded. "Oh no. I don't think That's going to happen, especially with her." The man motioned over to me. "Let em go" I hear a familiar voice say. "Daddy?!" I look over to see him. My dad. Right here. In this moment. To help us. "Megan!" He said, eyes filled with tears of joy, "my baby girl." He started to come over to me but got stopped. "Now, where do you just think you're going?" The person holding me said. "To see my daughter" he snapped back. "I don't think So." The man laughed. "NO!" My dad screamed. Next thing I knew, I was on the ground and everything was getting dark. The last thing I could hear was the fat man begging for his life.
