Carl's P.O.V
We were all sleeping were we used to. Before those people took Kim's family. Everyone was asleep, and I stood up. And tip toed out of the woods. Once I was far enough I started normally walking. I sighed since I was free, since I could find my Dad.
"What do you think you're doing?" Rikki said, as she got in front of me.
"I-"
"You're making a mistake. If you stay with us you will find you're family. If you leave you'll die." She says.
"You guys said you'll help. You haven't helped." I said.
"But, we will." Rikki says.
"How?" I ask.
"Tommorow we'll seach for you're family." She says. I sigh and walk back to the camp with her, and head to sleep.
Kim's P.O.V
Rikki woke us up early in the morning to tell us, "Guard, I'm going to get firewood." And handed me a knife. Then left.
I got up and stabbed a nearby walker.
I sit down next to Carl, "Do you think we'll live?"
"Yes." He says.
It's been a hour and Rikki's still not back, then another hour passed, another. I refused to sleep a wink. Another hour passed. A week passed. We were truely alone.
Me and Carl have grown closer, we would tell eachother jokes. I felt really connected to him. We both have been through the same or simular things.
"Here." Carl gave me. I looked down and saw some comics. I wasn't big on them but I still said thank you and hugged him.
"Can I ask you something?" I ask.
"You just did." I chuckle.
"Why didn't you shoot me? When you help te gun against my head."
"I-" He said, "I felt like I shouldn't. I felt like I trusted you. I don't know. It was crazy." He said.
I smiled then headed to bed, I held on to a picture of Cleo, imagining it was her, I knew she'll be back. I know it.
-NOTE-
This is a child friendly book, I only put teen because of the zombies. There's no cussing or anything like that, I do not like books that are really bad or stuff like that, so it will be fine for kids.
