Jess's pov
After days that went by , rick finally woke up .
"Dad, you're up.. " carl said.
Rick engulfed carl in a hug ..
"Has she pulled anything on you carl ? Has she even spoken?" Rick asked.
"Dad calm down. No , she hasnt pulled anything on me . And yes we had a couple conversations . I asked her the basic questions and she hasnt killed anyone, but shes killed only twenty walkers . " carl said .
"Dad , she didnt want to be there , she really had no part in what the governer was planning . Give me the keys so i can take the cuffs off ." He said .
"Carl .. I dont want you getting hurt , are you sure this is right..?" Rick asked .
"Dad , shes gone through alot , im sure we can trust her . " carl nodded.
He got the keys and set my hands free.
I rubbed my hands and looked up to carl and rick . "Thank you.." I said.
Rick looked at me with his beaten up swollen face .
I walked to the kitchen to find a cloth , i got clean water and wet the cloth .
"Rick , sit still for a minute , im going to clean your wounds up , looks like you got the beating alot harder .." I said .
He looked at carl and i washed the blood off ricks face , his eye , not so swollen anymore , i gave him water to spit out the blood , which made his mouth clearer .
"There ." I said .
"Thank you , and thanks for talkin' to my son for me and keepin' him company." He said .
"Its no problem " i said .
"Dad , ive been going on runs and getting food .. Im going on another one right now . " carl said .
"Carl , i told you to stay here and to not leave this house . But i understand . You were hungry .. Take her with you , be safe ." He said .
"Alright we'll be back soon." Carl said .
We walked out the house and started off quietly .
"What was it like at the prison .. " i asked .
"It was nice , but we were attacked frequently, and there was a horrible flu going around and many died." He said .
"Oh.. Well im sorry for your loss . " i said .
"Its fine. I didnt even know everyone so thats a step of getting over it ." He said .
"Okay.." I said .
We stopped at a house and i grabbed an empty backpack . I looked through the cabinets and found a huge fudge pudding can. Score ! I grabbed water bottles and first aid kits , and granola bars , and all sorts of healthy snacks , and candy.
We walked upstairs and heard some banging on a door .
Carl opened the door and a walker grabbed him . They fell together and i grabbed the knife that was on the floor and stabbed it in the head.
I sat back gasping and panting and carl crawled next to me .
"Its alright im fine , see no bites ." He showed his shoulders , his arms and his neck .
"Oh okay good ." I said .
"Come on , theres walkers downstairs , we have to go to the roof ." I he said .
"Yeah , i was just thinking the same thing ." I said .
We made it to the roof and found our way down .
"You did good jess , got the basic supplies and everything , youre quick on everything ba- .. Jess . " he said.
" haha thanks carl , better get back to your dad . " i said giggling .
I think i have a crush on carl grimes ..
