Everything seemed to move by slowly. Over that one little lie I felt myself growing apart from everyone. I was tearing myself up over it. I shouldn't have lied about it. I should've waited until I knew for sure. But what was done was done. I couldn't make it right not now.

"What's with you Kat?" I looked up to see the man that broke me outta my thoughts. I loved him I really did but he was gonna hate me. There was no way he would still want anything to do with me after I told him the truth. I had to tell him, they all deserved to know. Just because I never liked Carol didn't mean the rest of them hated her.

"I'm gonna leave. You wont want me here after," I gulped not wanting to continue what I was saying. I didn't wanna hurt him. I wanted to forget all of this and move on. But that wasn't going to be possible.

"After what?" He asked moving to kneel in front of me. I took a deep breath. "Why would you leave? I'll always want you here Kat." I shook my head. Trying to keep all the sadness away.

"No you wont. It wasn't walkers that killed Carol. It was me. I thought she was a walker so I threw my knife before I knew for sure. I lied to you all because I didn't want anyone to hate me. At first I didn't give a shit if I killed her or not but now I can't live with myself knowing what I did." I was on the verge of tears at this point. I was making myself sick.

"You're something Kat. You are a fucking bitch. I hope you didn't expect me to be ok with this. You killed one of our own." He screamed storming out. I made no attempt at trying to stop him. I sighed knowing he was going to react like that. I did want him to be civil about it but that was a far cry from reality. I walked out into the yard slipping through a part in the fence making sure to fix it. After all they were still like family to me. It's not like Daryl would miss me. He would stay pissed at me for days and so would the rest of them. It was best for everyone if I left. They would never trust me again anyways.

What walkers I wasn't able to sneak past I killed using either my knife or the butt of my gun. There was no way I was going to shoot my gun to draw more of the damn things to me. I had wasted most the day walking. I had came across a small clearing. I could faintly hearing water trickling. I followed the noise that the water made. It was a good mile before it came into view. I checked making sure there were no walkers around.

"You fucking bastard!" I exclaimed seeing that dirty mother fucker alone. He looked up a smirk in place.

"Well hello sugar tits. Where's that baby brother of mine?" He asked looking behind me. It wasn't how he remembered it anymore. Daryl wouldn't be following behind me like a little lost puppy. Them days were long gone.

"Hell for all I care." I grumbled walking to the creek splashing some on my face. I heard him laugh. I was inclined to tell him everything of importance that has happened since he left us. I refrained from telling him where they were staying. He had left us and I had this huge gut feeling that I couldn't trust him with that info yet.

"It would be good to see my baby brother again. Where did you say they're at?" I laughed looking at him. It wasn't going to be that easy.

"I didn't say Merle. Like I said. I had a fight with him and took off. They could be any where by now. I pretty much played a fucking you. Just up and left when I was alone." He didn't need to know the whole truth. I didn't even tell him that he was going to be an uncle. I sighed to myself thinking about that. Here I was out here all alone pregnant with no idea where I could even possible find a doctor when it was time for the baby to come in a few months or so. I was really up shit creek without a paddle.

"Sweet cheeks that's a jackass move you played. I'm so proud of ya." He laughed pulling me into him. I couldn't help but laugh. "If I know my brother and I do. He's gonna come looking for you."

"Let him." I tried too play it off as I didn't care if he did or not but in reality I wanted him to come save me. I was stupid to leave the safety of the prison. Though I was happy to see Merle again.

"Since ya ran off like that. I know this place. Completely safe." I couldn't hesitate, I had no where else to go. I nodded following behind him. Night was starting to set in and it was coming quick. We got to where it was he was taking me. The place was completely surrounded. They had done good for them selfs from what I could see anyways. He stopped right inside the doors. "I need your weapons Kat."

"What the hell do you mean you need my weapons?" I questioned pissed off. He knew better then anyone that I don't part with them ever for anyone.

"You'll get them back Kitty Kat. It's how things work here. Once you talk to the Governor we'll see how things go."

"Fuck that! I'll take my chance out there." I snapped clenching my teeth together. I could tell he wanted to tell me off and kick me out. But I held a soft spot within his dirty and filthy heart of his. Or at least I think still I do.

"Fine but hide them good at all times." He mumbled in my ear. I smirked as he led me through what use to be apartments pushing a door open. "I'll be back in the morning." I smiled walking in holding my sigh at bay. It was going to be weird not having Daryl here holding me close keeping me safe but that was my fault. I couldn't stay where I wasn't wanted. I curled up in the bed hugging the soft pillow as it soaked up the fastly falling tears.

A/N: The last few chapters of this story will go here from now on. At this point I'm not sure how many more there will be. It's just easier this way.
