Love In Hell (D.D.)

1.39 Feeling Good

Later.

Sasha was infected too.
She, Glenn and I were holding Henry down. He was having an attack.

Hershel blew some air in his lungs with the airbag " drink some of that, all three of you"

Glenn gave me a cup and then her.

I downed it and nearly gagged at the taste.

Hershel " some council meeting, huh?"

Sasha coughed  " we are three members short. "

Hershel " i think we should make some new rules before they get back.  I hereby declare we have spaghetti Tuesdays every Wednesday. "

I coughed and Sasha groaned.

Hershel " first we have to find some spaghetti. You okay to take over?"

He looked at Sasha before giving her the airbag " every five to six seconds, squeeze. You start feeling lightheaded, grab somebody else to hold onto. We'll take it in shifts. "

Then he looked at me and Glenn " You want to help me go on my rounds?"

Glenn and i nodded " yeah"

He stood up and helped me up.

Me "how long will that keep him alive?"

Hershel " as long as we are willing to do it. As long as it takes."

We walked downstairs. Everyone was lying in cells. .

I saw one of them dead in the cell and  whispered " guys"

They looked at me.

Glenn took his knife out.

Hershel shook his head" not here"

I started coughing again.

They rolled him out.

Hershel prayed for him and Glenn killed him.

----
I walked into the room with the glas wall.

Dad stood on the other side. His jaw dropped when he saw me.

i cracked a smile " hey, old man "

Dad shook his head. 

Not believing what he's seeing.

Dad asked confused" Why didn't anybody tell me?"

I shook my head "didn't want anyone to know"

He nodded.

Me "  Don't tell him. He'll try to get in here and get me out"

Dad shook his head" He's not even here. "

I nodded " I know"

Then I eyed him

He did something.

Me " How's Carl? How's Judith?"

Dad nodded" They are locked up. Safe"

Me " good. Dad?"

Dad " hm?"

Me " What did you do?"

Dad sighed " Carol was the one who burned David and Karen"

My jaw dropped.

Dad " I told her not to come back with me. I told her it's for the best"

Me " Da-"

Dad " just don't tell anybody, Ken".

I nodded.

Dad " you are going to survive this"

I shook my head  " doesn't feel like it"

Dad " you are my daughter.  You will survive this."

Me " I love you, dad . And if Daryl comes back and I'm not here, tell him I love him too"

Dad shook his head " you'll tell him that yourself "

I scoffed and walked back out.

----

I hear growling. I groaned and stood up.

Suddenly a shot fell. I looked around. Walkers were coming out of the cells. 

I walked to him as fast as I could and took the gun from the dead man. I started shooting at the walkers.

I heard Hershel call me " Ken, it's Glenn"

Maggie came in.

I yelled " Maggie!"

Glenn was in shock. Coughing.

Hershel " we got this, Ken. "

He did the same with him as he had done with Henry with the airbag.

Glenn calmed down.

......

Daryl didn't know that i was in here. Good.

Hershel had injected me something that made me feel better.

Glenn was stable. Tough son of a bitch.

Next day morning.

I walked out. I was feeling great. I looked around and saw Daryl by his bike.

He hadn't noticed me yet.

I smiled and ran to him.

He heard me and looked at me.

I hugged him.

Daryl didn't hug me back.

I sighed "Daryl - "

Daryl " you should've told me you were feeling sick"

I shook my head " I couldn't "

Daryl  " thought I would never see you again"

me " but you are seeing me right now'

He just looked at me.

I let out a deep breath "I will not let go of you till you hug me back "

I could feel him smirking.

Then i Smiled against his chest " I know you're smirking - might as well hug me back "

Daryl chuckled and hugged me back.
