I opened my mouth to tell him but I couldn't find the words to say. "Well?" Luke asked impatiently.
"I need to tell you why I didn't want to get with you?"
"You already told me why" Luke said with a impatient sigh and crossed his arms.
"No the real reason"
"Go on"
"I turned you down because I was scared, I was scared about being too attached to someone again to just lose them again. I was in a state when Lee died I just don't think I could go through that again and come round a second time"
Luke stayed silent.
"I really like you Luke, it was my first kiss and I panicked so I rejected you because that's the only way I knew how to react"
"What are you saying Clementine?" Luke said with annoyance.
"I want you to forgive me and we can be together"
It felt like eternity before Luke spoke "I don't know Clementine. I mean you reject me then you kiss me and now you want to be with me I feel like I'm on a roller-coaster with you.
"I know and I'm sorry more sorry than you can imagine"
"Let me think about it I need to take in and think about what you just said. Don't expect an answer staright away"
I gave a silent "ok" and left feeling tears falling down my cheeks. I made my way back to my room and lay in bed not being able to fall asleep. Maybe I should leave I thought, no one wants me here and Luke made it clear that me probably won't get together. He didn't say it but I could feel it everything that goes wrong is my fault. Loads of people are dead because of me.
I got out of bed and started to pack what I had witch wasn't much. I had a hammer as a weapon took a very small amount of food and left. I headed towards the woods at the back of the house.
I was wandering for hours before finding a place to sleep. I put my bag down and propped myself up against a tree and fell asleep.
No one's POV:
Everybody woke up as usual and went downstairs to have breakfast. While everybody was eating Christa got some food and was about to head upstairs when Carlos called out "why are you taking food up to her for?"
"Well in case you haven't notice she's tring to stay out of everyone's way because she thinks you all hate her. So I'm sorry but I won't let her starve."
Christa walked into Clementine's room and found it empty. Christa searched the whole room and realized all of Clem's thinks were gone. Christa ran down the stairs as fast as she could.
"Have any of you seen Clementine?" Christa asked franticly. When everyone shook their heads Pete asked
"Why?, what's wrong?"
"She's not in her room"
"So she could have gone for walk around the house I bet she will be walking through that door any second and wonder why you were so worried-"
"Her stuff is gone" Christa said interrupting Pete.
"You mean she's left?" Luke asked concerned.
"Yes, we need to find her she won't last out there. Look I know you all don't like her right now, but she was only trying to help and made some good points that you all discarded. We all know we may not make it but you just toss it away like it's not going to happen."
Everyone looked guilty and then Walter said "Well let's get going and look for her. Christa's right she won't last long by herself."
Everybody rushed out side taking a weapon or a gun while Rebecca carried her newborn.
"Clementine!"
"Clementine!" yelled everyone.
"Ahhhhhhh" came a scream from the woods.
"Oh no that sounds like Clementine, let's go!" shouted Christa and everyone ran towards the woods.
Back to Clementine POV:
When I had woken up I ate the food I had taken. When I had finish, I began to wander through the woods when someone grabbed me from behind and felt the end of a shotgun pressed to my forehead
"Don't scream or move otherwise I send a bullet clean through your skull got it" Troy said deadly.
"How...how did you find me?"
"I didn't we wandering through the woods to look for supplies now that Carver's dead Tavia is in charge but I saw you and I am going to bring you back no matter what" Troy kicked me to the ground and without a second though I screamed.
While Troy was yelling at me, I wish he would kill me I had nothing left to live for...not any more. Suddenly I saw the Christa and all of them come through the trees.
"Clementine thank god we-" Christa began but stopped when she saw me on my knees and a shotgun pointed to the side of my head.
"I'm sorry" I whispered as tears begun to fall and another hard nudge from the gun at my forehead.
"Well aren't I lucky to find the rest of the escape mother fuckers and some more guests, listen if ya'll come quietly I let this runt live"
I thought that they were going to let me die but then Carlos said "we'll come with you just don't kill her"
I looked up at Carlos and gave him a surprised but grateful look before being pulled up by my hair by Troy. He pushed me in front but kept the nose of the shotgun pressed against my back. "Anyone try anything and I'll shoot her"
When we got to the camp where most of us had escaped from, I saw Bonnie, Tavia and the rest of the group. When I looked at Bonnie she was smiling at someone I turned to see that she was looking and smiling at Luke. I felt a pang of jealousy sear through my heat.
We were taken to the pen outside where I used to be and Tavia came and said "If any of you try to escape again I'll shoot you. Carver's dead found him in the woods lurkers had gotten to him so I have taken over, now I'm not as...harsh as Carver was but I won't take bullshit from anyone."
"What about my baby?" Rebecca asked.
"We have plenty of supplies to keep a baby alive"
I looked to see that Bonnie was sending Luke a wink and a flirty smile. Why can't she just leave my guy alone...but he isn't my guy it's not up to me who he dates.
"Ya'll all be put to work tomorrow" Tavia said as she and the rest of the guards walked away including Bonnie thank god.
Later that evening as I was daydreaming leaning against the wall I could hear Luke and Bonnie talking "I can't believe your back" Bonnie said.
"Didn't have a choice" Luke responded.
"Well I missed you and I missed us" us what the fuck? were he and Bonnie dating.
"Bonnie we weren't really together"
"Yeah we were if you hadn't left when you did we would be happy now"
"Well if you cared so much why didn't you come with us?"
"I was scared but your back now for good so you and me can finally happen" and without waiting for Luke's response Bonnie full out kissed him.
I stayed paralysed for a few seconds just watching the guy I love kissing another woman. When he didn't push her off I turned and ran back to my bunk and cried.
"Hey Clem what wrong?" Christa asked.
"I saw Bonnie and Luke and they..." I couldn't even finish I was literately heartbroken
"Oh god I'm so sorry, did you tell him how you felt?"
I nodded "Yeah and he said he would think about it but this shows he doesn't want there to be me and him just him and Bonnie"
"It'll be ok Clem"
"I hope so." I then got in between the covers and got some sleep...eventually.
Ahh poor Clem...I might update later I don't know but we'll see. Tomorrow's chapter won't be up till late because I am getting a puppy and I will be spending most of the day getting him settled but I will update hope you liked the chapter.
