AN: I love Kmart and Carlos, platonic love, what ever, they are so cute together, you people decide if these is a one shot story or more, and reviews are love, as always I don't belong these characters.

Nightmares and Dahlias

Maybe she doesn't love Carlos, just like Claire told her some days before; it was a little crush but why every time she saw him, her heart start pumping harder than ever? She has to get that idea out of her head; he was too old to her. She got Mickey, but definitely wasn't the same thing. She was sixteen and Carlos was…well, maybe 25 or something like that but they were in a world with zombies, and probably she was the last teenage girl in the whole world, which was deep.

Now the convoy was resting in some clear are…for now anyway and she was walking around, she couldn't sleep, another nightmare about the time she was found on the K-mart store. People screaming….her mom screaming telling her to hide and never come back, a little tear cross all over her face, she really miss her. But now she had to be strong, just like Claire and the others told her to be. But this was her secret, every night she got a nightmare she goes to Carlos trailer, eat some chips and get sleeps together; he doesn't know her feelings, every time he hugs her on his sleeps she fells like there wasn't zombies, and for some short time…feel save…like in home. She knocks three times to his door and a little later he opens it.

-"Another nightmare, kid?"- He told her with a half smile on his face, letting her way to come inside the trailer- "we are done with chips…but we have some soup"- now she saw a soap on his hand, she smile at him but crying- "What it's going on kiddo?"

-"I dream about her…another time"- she said walking to him and wrap her hands around his waist, she felt his hand giving her warm on her back-"She…told me to run…and I left her…she is death because of me!"

-"Don't said that…she want you alive"- he said in a whisper while he touch her blonde her gently, now she was more calm- "Don't cry K-mart…you got me, always"- now she look at him on the eyes, they were soft and calm, she nods with her head

-"Dahlia"- she said cleaning her tears, he was looking at her confused and she laugh a little-"That is my real name, Dahlia"

-"That is a beautiful name, its fits you"- she felt her face turn all red making him smile, he loves when is like that, being a teenager- "You'll never loose me Dahlia, I promise"- he was the first in a long time to said her name and its was like a caress

-"Thank you Carlos"- she said in a little whisper while she keeps hugging him, now he caress her cheek, and kissed her front head- "Always together, right?"- now he kisses her cheek, almost her lips

-"Always K-mart, always"- and then the two of them get sleep with a little smile on their faces, she knew he maybe doesn't love her, but sometimes, like these one, she would like to pretend that he does.
