The only hope for me is you 2
chapter 1
Run. Run Sam, run! That's all I hear anymore. We're not safe, not like we were at the prison. We've found other groups but they just wouldn't have lasted, that's why Merle and I are always on our own. It's been months since we left the prison, almost year if I'm thinking right.
Merle and I hardly have time for each other, were always going all the time! Day in and day out, we never have time to be like we were back at the prison, and now with a baby on the way it makes things a whole lot worse.
He didn't want a kid, but it just happened. Merle wasn't mad or anything at me, he was mostly upset at himself for letting it happen. But there's nothing either of us can do about it now...
Merle and I mostly have to just scavenge what we can find, he's taught me a lot of things to help me survive. Most of the time we have to clear out a house for the night, but we never stay more than one night, too risky.
Things get depressing every now and then, not having anyone else around. Sometimes I think Of Hershel... About what happened back at the prison that day. I think about how things would be different if he was with us. I think about who did it, I don't know and I never will. I think of all the things that they did after we were gone, I wonder sometimes if there even still alive.
"Sam! You ready girly?" Merle shouted from the living room of the house that we stayed in. I walked in with my small bag of essentials "yeah.." I said with a sigh. Merle noticed I was down "Sam, you know we can only stay for one night. It's way to risky to stay any longer" he said softly. "Yea i know, I just wish that we could just- I could just lay in your arms and kiss you all the time like we used to.." I said. "Awe baby... Come here" he pulled me into him, lightly kissing the top of my head. "We will eventually. Once we find the right group ok?" He lifted my chin "ok" I said hugging him, he leaned down and kissed me "I love you" I smiled at him "I love you to"
I didn't talk while we were walking, I was silent pretty much the whole time. Until about a mile after we has left the house I decided to talk. "Where are we going?" I asked. "To a store, to get some supplies... If there is any" Merle said. I let out a small laugh, Merle turned around shocked. I don't laugh much anymore...
"Something funny girl?" He asked. I shook my head "then why were ya laughin?" He asked as he stopped walking. "I don't know" I said grinning. "Tell me" he said curiously. "Well you remember that day when we went to that store and it was your dumb idea to look for twinkies?" Merle nodded smiling, I love his smile. "And then I fell over a freaking shelf!" I said laughing. Merle started laughing "yea I didn't tell you this but I was so mad! In my head, the whole time I was thinking, god! She must be blind god damn it!" Merle laughed. "Ugh! Jerk!" I said sarcastically. "And then I broke my ankle and Hershel had to-" I stopped, saddened by it. Merle didn't say anything, I dropped my head not wanted Merle to see a tear roll down my face, but he did. "Sam, come here. It's ok" he said walking towards me. I wrapped my arms around him and let out a loud sob into his chest, soaking his shirt with tears. I mumbled something "what was that girl?" He asked lifting my head, I didn't say anything at first. "I-I didn't want him to die Merle" I sobbed. Merle held me in his arms, kissing my head. "I know... I didn't either." He said.
Later that night we couldn't find a near by house so Merle has a tent in his bag that we set up in the woods.
I crawled in the tent to find Merle already laying down on the hard floor, but he wasn't sleeping. I curled up next to him "you ok?" I asked, he just nodded. "You?" He asked putting his arm under my head for a pillow "I have to be" I said. "How are things going with little Alice?" He asked lightly placing his hand on my stomach, I smiled "Merle you don't even know if it's a girl" I laughed kissing his cheek. "Well if it is then her name will be Alice" he said.
"Ok ok, what ever you say Merle" I smiled he kissed me passionately. "I love you Merle" I said holding on to him. "I love you to baby girl" I said pulling me closer to him. "Goodnight baby" he said stroking me hair till I was asleep.
Ok so I won't be posting this story a lot because I have to write my other one. But here you go :) let me know what you think.
