I Love You So

Part 15

Rick nodded, looking at Amanda, his baby blue eyes dark, "okay, be careful." he said quietly, pressing his forehead against hers. He closed his eyes slightly

Amanda rubbed his arms before embracing him in a hug, "I'll see you in a few minutes." She said, smiling before taking off with Glenn.

Glenn and Amanda arrived at the gas station, walking inside, "not too bad." amanda said, noticing some items on the shelf hadn't been taken. She helped Glenn fill up his bag before she heard commotion outside.

Glenn grabbed Amanda's arm and yanked her down behind the counter, unsure of who was outside.

Two large men walked inside, talking amongst themselves.

Amanda perked up, hearing their voices "i know them." she whispered, "they were in my platoon." she whispered, "we deployed to Saudi." she mumbled, "stay down here." she told Glenn, ignoring his pleading eyes.

Amanda stood up, "Corporal Wilson? Private Lopez?" Amanda asked, smiling widely, "wow, you guys look so different." Amanda smiled, walking over

"Sergeant Garcia!" One of the men spoke, laughing as he walked over and pulled her into his embrace

Amanda smiled as she pulled away from his touch, "I'm glad to see you guys are okay." Amanda smiled

A male with dirty brown hair grinned at her, "not in every aspect." he said, walking closer to her, "Sergeant Garcia, why didn't we ever hook up?"
He asked

"Corporal Wilson, because you were my Soldier and I was your senior." Amanda said as she backed up. She looked over at Private Lopez who closed the gap, moving closer to Amanda

Glenn stood up from behind the counter, "Hey! Back up off her!" He yelled

Wilson laughed, walking over to Glenn. With one swift move, he pulled Glenn to the ground, holding him down.

Meanwhile, Lopez grabbed Amanda and pushed her into the wall. He dragged her down to the ground, causing her to smack her chin on the floor. He slowly began pulling down her pants, leaving kisses on her butt.

Amanda squirmed underneath him, "stop! stop!" amanda yelled, looking over at Glenn, who was trying to fight off the other man.

Daryl happened to be hunting, trying to find dinner, when he heard Amanda shout. He walked inside the gas station and quickly shot an arrow through Lopez's shoulder, another one piercing through the skull of Wilson.

Lopez let out a loud scream as he dug his nails into Amanda's neck/cheek, leaving scratches. Amanda quickly grabbed her knife, putting it through his neck. She kicked him off before redressing, "Take their stuff, see if they have a vehicle outside, see what we can take." Amanda said, ignoring the event that just occurred

Glenn spit up some blood, his eye swollen, nodding as he walked outside to the truck outside.

Amanda looked up as Daryl walked over to her, seldomly, "Don't." Amanda said, "Do not tell Rick." Amanda said as she finished packing up whatever they had on them and walked outside. Amanda smiled as she saw Glenn show her a bag full of canned food, beef jerky and protein bars, "nice." amanda said, "let's take the truck back to the motel and siphon the gas in the morning." Amanda said quietly

The drive back to the motel was quiet, the air was thick and they all kept their eyes glued ahead of them. Amanda had scratches on her cheek and neck that were red and raw. She climbed out of the car, grabbing some items and her bag before walking inside the room.

Rick looked up as she walked into the room and he exhaled deeply, "what happened?" he asked, noticing the scratches on her neck and the scrape on her chin, "is this from a walker?" he asked hoarsely
