The undying love
Chapter 2: Back again
The next day Rick woke up to Lori and the rest of the group camping making breakfast. Rick noticed that Shane and Carl were missing.
"Where's Carl and Shane?" asked Rick
"Shane took Carl to catch some fish for dinner" replied Andrea one of the camp members
Rick looked confused and thought to himself if Carl is safe with Shane alone
"He'll be fine baby" Said Lori to Rick
Rick smiled and went back in the tent as Lori followed him.
"Is everything okay?" asked Lori
"I don't know" replied Rick
"What do you mean you don't know asked Lori?"
"I thought I was never going to see you again" replied Rick
"I didn't think I would see you again too honey" replied Lori as she went to hug him
"Is there anything going on with you and Shane?" asked Rick
"N..no not at all...He did save us though he helped Carl and I alot" replied Lori nervously
"Then I need to thank him when he gets back form fishing" said Rick
Then Rick and Lori went back to help the others make breakfast and wait for Shane and Carl to get back. While waiting Lori was in an area by herself thinking on what she had done the another woman named Carol walked over to see if everything was okay!
"Everything okay" asked Carol
"Uh yes I guess I'm just thinking" replied Lori
"May I ask about what?" asked Carol
"Just a huge mistake I made" replied Lori
"You can talk to me I won't tell anyone" said Carol
"Well when I thought my husband was dead, I slept with Shane" replied Lori
"I see...Do you have feelings for Shane now?" asked Carol
"I mean I care for him as a friend but no I'm not in love with him I only slept with him cause I wanted to be touched and I was lonely and confused and missed Rick so much" replied Lori
"Understandable" said Carol
"I'm just not sure how to tell Rick though" replied Lori
"I don't think its a good time to tell him right now Lori wait for a better time, I'm sure everything will be just fine and I'm here if you need to talk" smiled Carol
The two went over with the others just as Shane and Carl retruned
"Mom, Dad look at all the fish Shane and I cought" said Carl
"Thats great son" said Rick
as Lori smiled.
Rick walked over to Shane and gave him a hug and said
"Thank you for watching and keeping my family safe"
" Ah man, No need to thank me" replied Shane as he looked over at Lori
"But I do, They wouldn't be alive right now if it wasn't for you Shane" Rick said
"Well thanks buddy" replied Shane
Rick and Carl went to go start making dinner as Lori and Shane talked
"Did you tell him about us?" asked Shane
"Not yet but I plan to when the time is right" replied Lori
"Why tell him? what if he gets upset?" asked Shane
"He has a right to know hes my husband and I love him!" replied Lori
"So what happened between us didn't mean anything to you?" Shane asked
"Hardly...I was sad and confused and wanted to be touched" replied Lori
"What if I said it meant something to me?" Shane replied back
"I can't help how you feel Shane, Thank you for being there for my son and I but my husband is back and he needs me." replied Lori as she walked away.
Later that night the group was eatting there fish dinner
"Great cook Carl and Rick" said Andrea
"I agree" Glenn also said
"It was all Carl's cooking" replied Rick as he smiled at Carl and reached for Lori's hand
"I had better" said Ed, Carol's husband
Ed got up and went to go pee in the woods.
Shane watched Lori and Rick hold hands jealously but it was clear Lori loved Rick.
Back in the woods while Ed was going to the bathroom a walker came up behind him and bit him on the neck and started to eat him, Ed was dead and the walker along with many more behind it head towards the camp were the rest of the group were.
