you and me ◂ the sequel : carl grimes

world is not perfect

"No, they came here to take us." Rick said and looked at Carl. Carl looked at me and I still kept my stare locked on the ground.

"They already did." I said

"This isn't happening again, this isn't fucking happening again!" I screamed and that only terrified Sam and Judith. Carol tried to take them from me, but I put up a fight. "Nobody is going to hurt my fucking children, Carol!" I screamed in her face and Daryl pulled me back from her. No, I would never try and fight Carol. I just was heated in this moment and so many thoughts and feelings raced through my head and body. I didn't even know what to say or do.

Daryl gave Judith and Sam to Carol and she took them upstairs away from the scene that was going on down here.

"What are we supposed to do?! The others? Micheal Lana?! Liam and Sierra? And their kids for god sakes!" Carl shouted and the group was pretty shaken up at this point.

We had not dealt with such a threat in a while, not a threat like this.

"Fuck this" I said aloud and I walked upstairs at a fast pace and into our room. I pulled my emergency bag from under the bed and Carl came in the room. "Ella, stop." he said and grabbed my wrists to get me to stop rummaging through the bag.

I on the other hand wanted to make sure that we had everything we needed in the bag so we could get the hell out of there. I didn't wanna stay there any longer, absolutely not.

"You're not going anywhere" he stopped me and I yanked my wrist away from him. "I'm taking the kids and we're leaving. You're not staying here either. I knew this would happen, I fucking knew it Carl!" I yelled at him and Carol came into the room.

"I'm leaving the kids in my room tonight." she said and I didn't pay any mind. Anytime Carl and I would argue, she'd keep Sam and Judith in her room.

"Not now Carol." Carl shooed her out and she nodded her head.

"It's pretty fucking clear what that note meant Carl and you're acting like its god damn nothing! If somebody touches the fucking kids, I swear to god." I shoved him back into the dresser.

"Ella, you're not going anywhere and you're not taking my kid or my sister!" Carl pushed the bag out of my hands and grabbed my arms.

"We're not fucking safe here, Carl! Did you blank out and not witness what the fuck just happened?! We found a threatening note at our house Carl! They are coming back to get us and everybody with some common fucking sense in this house knows that!" I yelled at him.

Carl's facial expression went from anger and shock, to a soft expressionless look. It was very odd to say the least.

"I'll take watch tonight." Carl said in such a calm tone.

"We're not staying here another second, Carl." I put the bag on my shoulder and he stopped me.

"Put the bag up" he said and looked into my eyes so different.

"Right now" his tone was more stern and I caved.

Carl walked out of the room. I was too confused to try and understand what just happened. One thing I wasn't confused on is that tomorrow, we are leaving this place.

I zipped the bag up and set it back under the bed. 

Carl had left for the night to take watch. Not the normal post to take watch, standing on the ledge of the barrier. He was on the outside of it with an AR-15 and only himself.

I opened Carol's bedroom door to see the kids. Sam and Judith both had their arms wrapped around each other. My heart ached for those two.

"Ella" I hear my name called from behind me, and it's just Carol.

I shut the door quietly and turned around. She had her arms crossed and I knew she was mad about something. I waited for her to say something.

"You and Carl should not be fighting like that. It's not healthy for the Sam and Judith to be seeing."

I rolled my eyes so disrespectfully at her and wanted to walk off. "It was a disagreement, not an argument. Don't worry about what Carl and I are doing, damn." I walked passed Carol and she sighed.

Rick was in the living room pacing back and forth. Daryl and Lincoln were both standing up as well, posted up on opposite sides of the living room. It was easy to tell that they were waiting for Rick to just say something.

"How well did you know this Morales guy?" I asked Rick and he stopped. "I didn't know him for long, but I never picked him to be whatever that is."

"I already told Carl I didn't wanna stay here another second. So tomorrow, I think it's best if we all leave. It's too big of a risk to be here. They know where we are, they know our numbers. Morales knows you, it won't be long before they come back and try to take the rest of us."

"It's not my choice to say who stays or goes, but I am leaving tomorrow. Sam is coming with me and so is Carl. Staying together is what I want more than anything, but I won't put my son's life on it." I justified.

"We can't split up." Lincoln said looking at Rick.

"He's right, you're right. We leave the farm tomorrow." Rick had decided and I felt way better about this decision. As much as I wanted to leave tonight, we couldn't just pick and leave. We were very low on supplies and had to pack. It was just like leaving the prison all over again. I hated it, but it was necessary in order to survive.

That's all we must do now

We just survive or we die
