Please review guys! Thanks for reading.

Maybe, she thinks to herself, maybe they can be safe.

Safe.

Maggie lets the word settle on her tongue, trying it out. It doesn't seem to fit their situation but, in a strange way, this has brought them together.

Memories of the prison flash in her mind, reminding her that she believed she would be safe there too; they all did.

"Did..." she begins, but the words get lost before she can continue.

She feels Glenn's hand squeeze hers but it doesn't bring comfort. She feels numbs, like something in this world killed a part of her.

"Beth," she whispers. "Did my sister make it out?"

She catches Rick glancing at Daryl but holds her tongue. Whatever happened will eventually come out; no matter how bad.

"I knew," Maggie says softly. "I thought maybe she would get out but I knew; a part of me knew she would never make it out. I knew Beth would never adapt to this world."

Daryl whispers something under his breath, something no one can make out until finally Glenn demands he tell them.

"I said she ain't dead," he mutters, "She's just... Gone."

Maggie stares at him, letting the words she wants to say form in her mind, before untangling herself from Glenn and standing.

Daryl flinches away as she gets closer but she finally wraps her arms around him.

"It's okay," she says quietly. "I don't blame you, Daryl. It's okay."

He nods, not hugging her back but not pushing her off either. "It's just," he says, his voice nervous. "I fell for her, Maggie. I really did."

"I know," she soothes, "We'll get her back. She's not dead just gone, we'll get her back."
