Chapter 2 from episode 3

Lee P.O.V

"Well its been a full week since we escape that crazy farm. Since then our group continue to use the Travelier Motel for shelter, now that they decided to obtained more supplies from the back of the abandoned car. Right now I'm currently searching for more supplies along side Kenny, who hasn't been on the same page as me lately. We hurry inside the town to keep from being caught by walkers and hope we don't run into trouble along the way."

"Looks like this is our lucky day." Kenny claims since there were no walkers in the area.

"Maybe, they tend to take us by surprise." I respond to him. Though we still haven't resolve the issues that we have against each other I still try to keep peace for Clementine but it sometimes work.

"Yea well, the less I see, then the happier I am." He smirks as we continue down the road quietly. We start looking inside buildings to see any signs of supplies but so far the rooms were empty. I also notice that Kenny kept rubbing his side where he was shot at. Its surprising how he mange to just brush the pain off but then again he seems to brush a lot of things off if its not concerning him and his family.

"You made up your mind yet?" He suddenly asks me.

"What are you talking about?" I ask back knowing full well what he meant but I wasn't in the mood to talk about the subject.

He rolls his eyes at me and said, "When it comes to the getting the hell out of Macon. I bet you're in the lets say in the camp, considering I been pushing everyone to leave."

Kenny really gets on my nerve with that question. Yes at some point we do need to find another place to stay but we also don't need to just rush out there and expect to just know where we going. We need a plan but Kenny plan is making sure his family is okay more than anything. Yea I made Lilly & Clem my family but I still care about the opinions of Carley, Doug, and the new guy Ben and try to look out for them as well.

"So you stay with Lilly, then? And Carley and Doug stick with you because you found some way to save the two love birds that one time, and I get stuck with Ben? That gangly *hit for brains?" Kenny shot back at my suggestion. I can tell he really didn't like the idea because he mutters "Split up. Hmmmp" to his self.

"Well he damn I was just giving you an idea since your quick to want to leave." I told him as we kept walking until we stop near a local pharmacy.

"Okay, just like last time. Other the rig, into the pharmacy, and scrape together supplies are left." Kenny announce the plan we use last time to get inside.

"We didn't leave much in there." I remind him. Last time we got a lot of stuff in the pharmacy.

"We're out of options. Somethin's better than nothin'." He said walking towards the half broken ladder. Kenny begins climbing the ladder but again I notice he rubs his side again while I kept watch making sure we are not in danger.

At that moment I heard a crack sound follow by Kenny saying, "*hit. The ladder's come lose, so I'm not sure how many trips she's got in her."

Noticing the ladder was coming off the truck, I around to see if I can use something else to get on top of the truck. The only thing really useful is a jeep but I bet it didn't have gas in it nor the key to drive it. Luckily there is a winch in the front so I can hook it up to the truck and pull the jeep that way.

"Lilly still not doing good huh?" Kenny ask in concern which I doubt he really care about how she been feeling lately.

"She'll be fine. Just taking it one step at a time." I answer still pulling on the cable.

Kenny seem shock by my answer. "If you say so. You're the only one who she seem to give a damn about anymore. Well you and Clem."

As much as I would bring up the fact that her father was slaughter by him, this wasn't the time to start a fight. Now that I think of it me and Lilly have gotten closer in that one week especially how she trust me with a lot of stuff about her. Wow I really care for Lilly a lot more than I thought.

"You think Clem is still upset with me for taking the stuff out of the car last week?" Kenny asks me after the jeep made its way to the truck.

"I don't know Kenny what do you think?" I sarcastically ask back getting on top of the jeep.

"Christ, I heard your opinion. What's done is done." He answer angrily but calms down. "Duck was asking about that guy at Hershel's farm last night."

"Really? I wasn't sure it phased him." I said wondering what would make Duck ask about that.

"Of course it did." Kenny mutter under his breath.

"Well it was a scary situation for him; Shawn dying and all." I explain to Kenny the best I could.

"I'm just worried he'll always think it was his fault." Kenny tells me right before he extends his hand to help me up.

"You sure you're up to this?" I ask him because Im not sure his body has recover 100% yet.

"Lee I'm fine. I got this. Gimme your hand." He claims.

Well here we go.

I jump up to catch his hand, but as he starts lifting me up his side began to hurt and drops me on the jeep causing a loud sound to occur. As if time stood still, me and Kenny both look around the area thinking we need to get out of here fast.

"What the hell happen! You just said you could handle this!" I quietly yell at Kenny. Only he knows the limit his body has so he should had just said he wasn't able to do it instead of being mr. tough guy.

"Have you ever been shot before? I'm sorry, christ. You'd think you-" We both was now cut off my a loud scream coming from behind us.

We see a woman, who looks in bad shape, running from a group of walkers. She gets surrounded by the walkers and gets bit by one of them but because she keeps panicking and screaming she kept drawing more of them to her. Kenny suggest leaving her be so she can distract the walkers while we grab more supplies. To his disappointment, I decide to put her out of misery because no one deserve that fate and that basically murdering her. We hurry inside the store and grab all the supplies we could before the army of walkers could break in. After grabbing everything we could, me and Kenny made a run for it only for a group of walkers breaking through the room, slamming one of the doors on top of me. I yell for Kenny to help but he just stood there like he was thinking should he help or not. Somehow I was able to push the door off of me giving Kenny an anger glare while we made our escape.

*Back at the motor in*

Me and Kenny made it back to the motor in safely but not said a word to each other on the way back. It's like if I don't take Kenny side he leaves me high and dry.

"Your back!" yell the voice from my sweet pea Clementine. Seeing her always seem to help me be in a better mood. "Ben found some stickers in a drawer and I put them on my walkie."

I thought it was cute that she's able to have some time of being a kid. Lord knows its hard to when its hell on earth now.

"Hey sweet pea. That's neat, I'll find you in a minute." I hate to cut her off but I need to report to Lilly about the supplies we got. Clem when back to playing as I met back up with Kenny knocking on Lilly's door.

She opens the door and gives me a hug with Kenny rolling his eyes saying, "Aww she miss her man."

She breaks the hug asking Kenny "what you get?" with Kenny responding in a sarcastic tone, "I'm fine by the way."

"We got a lot of stuff that pretty much was left." I answer ignoring Kenny's comment and giving her the book bag of supplies.

Taking the book bag, Lilly goes searching through the bag to check out the stuff which puts a smile on her face that I lov.. I mean like seeing.

"Nice work. This will keep us going. If we keep up like this, we'll get through the winter." She tells us after checking through the supplies but of course someone won't like that idea.

"The winter? We will freeze our asses out here if we stay until then." Kenny claims.

"Because piling into an RV with you after what you did to my dad sounds so appealing." Lilly shot back.

"Here we go." I mutter to my self.

"Why wouldn't it be? You know I will do whatever it takes to keep everyone safe."

"We already safe."

"Why don't we just do whatever is best for the kids. Doesn't that make sense." I suggests to the two.

"Lee its suicide out there." Lilly states.

"Well we die in here." Kenny argues.

"You're right, you could see someone sleeping and kill one of us." Lilly and Kenny make good points but are not willing to comprise or come up with a plan they both can agree with.

Katjaa, Carley, and Doug comes by hearing the disagreement. "At it again I see." Carley joke while Doug chime in asking, "Are we betting this time?"

"Can it you 2." Kenny tells them in a annoy tone.

"Don't boss people around." Lilly orders him.

"Oh this coming from you?" Kenny ask back getting angry.

"Come on, we are strongest together. Look Kenny I know you think I'm on her side but there are no sides, dammit." I try reasoning with the two because the fights have been getting way out of hand since Larry die and I hate that it will make Lilly explode dealing with all this stress and not fully able to cope with losing her father because of it.

"Well what about the food situation, protection, and what if this place falls? Somebody gotta be thinking about all of that." Kenny explain to us.

"How exactly has this not been working? We have everything we need." Lilly questions

"Because of me Lilly"

"No because Lee knows how to take care of PEOPLE and not just things."

"What about meds?"

"Don't you have enough considering you took everything from that station wagon?" I question Kenny reminding him of the night he decided to take the stuff that didn't belong to him.

"You know that stuff is not going to last forever Lee."

At this point I can tell that Lilly is getting tired of the back and forth with Kenny. "Everything that happens to us is another excuse for you to pull this crap about leaving. All I want is a week of nothing hearing it.

"We wouldn't even be fighting about our medicine and supply stock if Lee hadn't *ucked up downtown."

"What the hell!?" I yell out of shock from his statement.

"Some girl came screaming out of an alley. She had dead hanging all over her. She was making enough noise that we would've had plenty of time to get what we needed. Instead, smart guy shot her." Kenny tells the group making it seem like what I did was wrong.

"He what?" A shock look form on Lilly's face and now I was piss at Kenny for making the story seem one way then it was.

"He wanted to put her out of her misery. Stupid."

"Instead of what, making her suffer?" Lilly ask Kenny.

"You guys couldn't try to save her?" Carley ask us.

"Unlike Kenny who wanted to use her as bait when no human should suffer that fate, I couldn't let her suffer plus we was to far to try to save her so when she got bit I just took the shot so she wouldn't have to come back as one of them."

"Apparently you forgetting we all are suffering." Kenny claims.

"Some more than others." I can tell by her tone she thought of what Kenny did to her dad.

"I don't see y'all giving Lee hell for not doing what needed to be done." Kenny said while his wife tries to calm him down.

"Its not easy for him to just kill someone unlike you." Lilly responds and if I didn't know better I thought I saw Carley show a concern look towards me.

"Look, Macon and its people aren't savable. It's not a town. It's full of walkers and the people who WERE left are dying and walking around in the middle of the street. It's hell on earth and it's coming this way." Kenny again tries to explain to her.

"IT'S NOT GOING TO BE EASIER OUT ON THE ROAD!" Lilly finally snap and it actually scares me seeing her this way.

"How would you know?"

"WHAT I KNOW? I know you're not above murder! I know somebody has been STEALING our supplies! Thats right STEALING and I know the list of people I can trust here gets SMALLER EVERY DAMN DAY! Now everybody GET OUT!" After going off we quickly got out of her room.

"You happy now Kenny? Now you got really upset." Kenny just doesn't know we to quit likeI get why there are reasons to leave but he seriously did he had to push the topic that hard on Lilly like that?

"Whatever its not like she will be upset with you." Kenny shoots back at me.

"Kenny you can understand that.." Kenny interrupts his wife saying, "All I understand is that whenever *ish happens Im the *ucking bad guy. I'd like a thank you for once. FOR ONCE!" He walks off leaving Katjaa to look at me with a sad look and follows him.

"Well it looks like things are coming to a head." Carley said along side Doug.

"You can say that." I agree in a disappointed tone.

"Is it to late to make bets on who will win." Doug jokes in a way trying to light the mood which earns him double glares from me and Carley. "To soon?"

"Anyways, if it makes you feel better me and Doug think you made the right choice and that lately you been more of a Leader then Lilly and Kenny." Carley tells me with a smile with Doug holding her hand in agreement.

"Yea dude, even with you being close to Lilly now you still try to make sure we okay. You know looking out for the whole group and not just yourself." Doug also tells me which actually made me feel good knowing the two felt confident about me.

"I appreciate hearing the nice words. I'm not trying to take over but I just know that we are a group and we should make decisions as a group or we will fail." I explain to them.

They both nod in agreement with Carley saying, "Couldn't agree more. Anyways you should check on Lilly, we know only you can make her feel better, and when your done we got something we want to talk to you about." Carley and Doug head upstairs after finishing up talking to me. Taking their advice, I decide to go and check on Lilly to hopefully calm her down and see what she meant about stolen supplies. I enter the room to see Lilly with her head laying on her lap.

She looks up to see it was me with a sad expression on her face. "I'm sorry."

I sit right next to her letting her head lean on my shoulder as I rub her arm. "You know you don't have to apologize to me. I know you are under a lot of stress right now. Plus I wanted to follow up on when you said something about stolen supplies."

She looks at me and asks, "Do you know whats going on?"

"Unfortunately I don't." I answer her trying to remember if I saw anything missing the past days.

"Well theirs a traitor, somebody, one of us, out there. He or she or they have been taking things." She warns me as I look at her with confusion. It made be just stress getting to her but the last thing she needs to hear is being call paranoid over something like that.

For now I will go along with it. "Really? Who do you got?"

"Yes for real. And I don't have *hit. I just know." She answers me not sounding to convincing.

"Lilly..."

"The count's off and its the good stuff. Antibiotics, oxy, anything with opium in it."

"Come on Lilly, I check the count and its fine."

"I keep my own. That one's getting messed with."

"I know I'm not 100% stress free right now but I'm not stupid. I know what happens if I start a witch hunt."

"So this is your sweet way of asking me to start one?"

"I just want you to poke around."

"*sigh* fine what's there to go on?"

She reaches underneath the bed and hands me a broken flashlight. "We don't toss out equipment. We fix it. You'd only try to get rid of a flashlight if you were using it when you shouldn't."

She had a point, why wouldn't the person who used the flashlight not report about it being broken?

"Okay I will poke around a bit." I tell her getting up.

"Thank you Lee I really appreciate you trusting me." She said with a smile and I smile back leaving the room.
