Daddy's Little Girl (Walking Dead/ Carl Grimes)

Numb

Everyone sat quietly for a moment. It was hard to believe that these people would go out of their way to set up an accident just to get us all here.

"That's not even the worst part... I snuck into Tammy's house because I was so confused as to why they'd do this. But I finally found my answer... We are not a weak group. We're all strong and hardworking... And they want to trade us. Tammy is planning to trade us for supplies to some huge camp in Montana. We'd practically be slaves if we were to be sent there."

Now everyone understood, and no body was taking it well.

"What are we gonna do?" Beth rubbed her arms, which is something she does when she's nervous.

"We've got to get the hell out of here." Daryl got up from his chair and began throwing supplies in his bag.

"No, no! Stop. We aren't running. We're gonna remind them why they picked us. We're gonna kill em'."

"Rick-"

"We are... Tonight." Everyone exchanged glances, nodding. "Rest up. It's gonna be a long night."

•••••••

Usually I don't question Rick, but his decision on how to deal with this particular situation is not exactly how I would choose to handle the problem. I hate to say it, but I think we should run. Get the hell out of here before anyone else gets killed. Rick is putting all of us at risk by choosing to kill them. It's something my dad would do, and because of his decision, he's dead.

"This is stupid." I huffed, packing my stuff.

"Yeah." Beth mumbled, lost in her thoughts. She looked worried.

"Beth?"

"Someone's going to die. This is exactly what happened at the prison. Except this time we're the Governor." She placed her hands over her face and inhaled deeply.

"Beth, nothing is going to happen. We're killing them, and then we're getting out of this hell hole."

"This is house is actually really nice." Beth giggled, sniffling. I smiled at her, and opened my arms to hug her.

"I never thanked you. You saved my life. I would've been dead if you hadn't pulled me out of that tub. So, thank you." We both laughed softly. She pulled back from the hug and grabbed my shoulders. She held eye contact with me, studying me closely.

"How are you?" She asked slowly.

"Great." I smiled, trying to convince the both of us that I was.

"That's... Great!" She pulled me in for another hug and squeezed extra hard.

"I love you Anna. Please don't go any where."

I laughed. "I'm not going any-"

"No. I mean, don't. Go. Anywhere." She shook me slightly to make sure I got the point.

"I won't. I swear." Beth smiled satisfyingly.

A knock sounded from the door, and then Michonne popped her head in.

"Um, Anna, someone is here to see you."

"I don't want to talk to him." I spat, knowing it was Mark.

"Actually..." Michonne opened the door wider. Molly looked up at me with her big blue eyes and slowly entered the room. Beth left along with Michonne, and she shut the door on her way out. Molly sat in a rocking chair in front of me, folding her hands in her lap.

"I forgive you." She said after several minutes of deadly silence. "You don't know the whole story Anna."

I couldn't speak to her. It's as if there was a force telling me to keep my mouth shut. And so that's what I did.

"Mark's dad married my mom a long time ago. We were a happy family, and everything was great... until she died from cancer. Mark's dad... Well-he... He committed suicide. Mark and I were put into foster care when we were ten, and when we turned twelve we were adopted by the O'rielly's. When the outbreak started, Mrs. O'rielly passed. And since then it's been me, Mark, and Mr. O'rielly. I had always been attracted to Mark, but nothing ever happened because our parents were married. But once the apocalypse started, we decided to change our story. So we could be together without people thinking we were freaks. I may be Mark's step sister, but I'm also his girlfriend."

I felt even worse after hearing Molly's story. I couldn't even look at her. However, she placed her hand on my shoulder, saying, "I forgive you."

She slowly got up, heading for the door.

"Don't you hate him?" My mouth shot open, asking such a stupid question.

"No. Was I mad? Yes. But no, I don't hate him."

"But he cheated on you. He used me, took advantage of me, and practically stole my virginity."

Molly smile softly. "You can't choose who to love." She exited the room, leaving the door wide open.

Her words circled around in my head. They pulled at my heart strings and made me remember things I didn't want to recall. I thought Molly was weak, but all this time, she's been stronger than me myself. She's had to go through so much, yet she doesn't allow herself to fall apart. She's like a rubber band that keeps stretching and stretching, but eventually she's gonna pop. I just wonder what it's gonna be that makes her.

I finally put my last belonging in my bag, zipping my backpack up. I slid it onto my shoulders, but stopped when I looked up. Carl stood across the hall, staring into my room. I hadn't forgotten what he said. He's that real reason the whole Mark thing happened. He broke me.

"What? What do you want?" I snapped.

"I-" he was cut of by a loud bang. I heard the group screaming from downstairs. It sounded like they were saying fire. Carl and I raced down the stairs to see what all the commotion was about. The kitchen windows were busted and there was fire growing rapidly throughout the house. We all scurried thru the front door, but that didn't seem to solve our problems either. Almost half the town of Jefferson stood with their guns pointed at us. Even Nurse Lilly.
