I own nothing it belongs to the wonderful team that bring the walking dead to life
CHAPTER THREE: THERE IS HOPE SOMEWHERE THERE HAS TO BE
As we headed towards the CDC it was pretty clear things hadn't worked out too well but it doesn't mean that it was a bad idea coming the CDC, it might be ok. We kept driving Caitlyn asked would we be ok I said that I hoped so. We all got out of the cars and headed toward an entrance and hoped that someone was there, when it appeared that no one was there Shane and Rick started to fight, Shane demanding again to try Fort Benning, I couldn't believe how stupid he was, I told him it was no use. Just as we were about to leave Rick noticed the camera move and was pleading for someone to let us in, then a bright white light came as the door opened and we rushed in. The man that opened the door said that we had to get what we needed as the doors wouldn't re-open when we came back, and that we needed to submit to a blood test not one of my favourite things in the world but you do what you have to.
After we had the blood tests done he offered us the use of the hot showers, there was a combined shout of "Hot?" I must admit it would be nice have one only been using cold water for weeks. Caitlyn and I used the stalls at the same time and as we were finished we were walking out as Daryl was walking in, he got me thinking that redneck wasn't so bad looking but very rough around the edges.
We were having real food with real meat not squirrel but I'm not complaining about any meat in the time we live in, and alcohol I've never been a drinker I thought why not. Daryl was teasing poor Glen trying to make him drink more he's going to regret it in the morning.
I was heading to the rec room when I could hear muffled sounds behind a door it sounded like that jerk Shane and Lori fighting I could hear her saying "No Shane, Rick mustn't know. We were in the wrong you have to forget it" for some reason I listened I'm glad I did as the next thing I heard was a louder No I couldn't ignore that and entered the room I pretended not to have heard anything. I said "Sorry to interrupt. You ok Lori?" "Yeah" she replied and walked out the door, I closed the door, and she said "Thank you so much, I was so scared please don't tell Rick."
I finally reached the rec room and Carl and Caitlyn were still in there playing I told them that they should head to bed and I told Caitlyn I will be in shortly, on the other side of the room there was a pool table with T-Dog and Daryl playing, at that moment T-Dog said he was heading for bed and I looked at Daryl and said if he didn't mind I'd play with him, which made him laugh I told him to get he's mind out of the gutter or was he scared a girl would beat him? He said "let's make this interesting every time you sink a ball you ask a question?" I replied "Sounds good to me but be warned you might have to answer a lot of questions." It took a while but I sunk the first ball, "So who taught you to hunt?" "My dad" I got the next one in "What did you do before all this happened?" "Labourer, odd jobs whatever was needed" He got the next one in and asked "what happened to Caitlyn's father?" I replied "He died a three years ago he was hit by a drunk driver, that's why I don't really drink" he said he was sorry, I could tell he meant as he's eyes looked sad. I got the next one in and asked if he had someone before all this happened, no was the answer "Jealous?" he said "No, why would I be? Thou that being said I'd rather you try hitting on me then the asshole Shane, he's such a creep" "He tried to hit on you?" he replied "Yeah said if I needed a stress relieved we could hook up, no thank you, told him I'd rather sleep with a walker. And maybe I like my men grouchy; I'm going to bed good night Daryl"
"I guess that means I win, if you're walking away" "I guess you do" and I walked away without a backward glance and a smile on my face.
Trying to decide how faithful to the series I should be. I look forward to your reviews.
