Never leave your side

•Carl•

I can't believe what just happened. I'm both mad and sad for her. Mainly mad. I was mad because of how she snapped, and how she never told me.

I stormed out of her room, and my dad stood up from the couch when I entered the living room.

"Everything okay Carl?"

I don't know if I should tell him.

"Uh. Ya. Everything's fine."

"Okay."

"So dad what's the plan?"

"Well since we have a lot of supplies I thought we could stay here for a while. Hopefully the heard didn't follow us."

"What's our plan is they did?"

"We leave. There's another town not far from here. If we take a short cut there we should loose them. If they find us."

"Okay."

"You hungry?" Michonne said and handed me a bowl of cereal.

"Yeah thanks."

I took the bowl and sat down next to Michonne, and ate away.

Aly came out of her room a while later. Her face was red from crying and her eyes were puffy.

"Hey." She said and looked at everyone and smiled, but when her eyes met mine she gave me a "if looked could kill" look. I did the same right back at her and went back to eating my cereal.

"Hey Aly you hungry?"

"Yea I am thanks."

Michonne handed her a bowl of cereal too and Aly sat next to my dad and ate not looking at me once.

"So Rick what's the plan?"

My dad chuckled.

"What? Do I look weird or something?"

"No. No we just got done discussing our plan a few seconds before you came in."

"Oh sorry. I was just in my room rearranging things, and made the room feel like home."

She looked down. We both knew that wasn't true.

"Okay well. I heard you scream and something fell on the floor, and me and Michonne were a little concerned."

"Oh Ya it's fine. I was moving stuff and Carl bumped something special to me and it broke."

That's not true either. Whatever I don't need her. She's just some stupid girl.

"Oh okay."

"So that plan. What are we going to do?"

"Well I figured we could stay here for a while since we are pretty well stocked on supplies. If the heard follows us however we are going to head to this town."

And he pointed to the map.

"And we will take this shortcut and hopefully we should loose them."

"Okay sounds good to me, but how do we know this place is safe?"

"Well I was thinking today we can just rest, and get settled and then tomorrow we will check the perimeter."

"Sounds okay to me."

Aly, my dad, and Michonne kept talking but I zoned out and finished my cereal and got up and went to my room.

•Aly•

After a while of crying I came out of my room and went into the kitchen where everyone was at. I could tell my eyes were still puffy, but I didn't care.

Everyone turned and looked at me and I smiled at both Michonne and Rick but gave Carl a dirty look. I hate him. For him pushing me like that for me to tell him what my dad did to me, and about what happened at the prison.

Rick told me the whole plan while I ate cereal. After we just talked until Carl got up and left. I wasn't going to have a lot to do today.

I went out and decided to go hunt. Rick told me not to go far. Stay in shouting distance. So I did. I killed two rabbits and a squirrel. It wasn't that hard. I then climbed a tree near the cabin and sat up there, and cried. No one understood.

I sat in the tree for about an hour, either crying or staring off into space. I though about the whole Carl thing. It was our first fight. Well second if you count the prison. Let me clear something's up. First of all, he isn't my boyfriend. Second, I don't like him anymore.
And third I hate him.

I got down from the tree, and walked back to the cabin with the rabbits and squirrel.

"I have dinner." I said and sat the dead animals on the table.

Rick came in and looked at my catch.

"Good job Aly."

I smiled.

That night we ate what I caught. It was so good. I was still avoiding carl and he was doing the same.

Hopefully this place will be safer than the prison. Hopefully we will find the others. Hopefully everything goes well.
