Danielle's POV
"Belle, you know you couldn't have done anything to help him". Belle has been sitting with her head in her hands for about half an hour. I know she is mad at me for taking her back but I had to. She would've died herself trying to save that man "Yes I could! I could have distracted the walkers so he would get away!" Belle screams and stands up. "You would've died yourself Belle, I was just on time to kill that walker that was attacking you". I say trying to stay calm. "I had it under control, you had absolutely NO right to stop me from helping that man. He is dead because of YOU!" Belle is crying by now and she lets herself fall on the ground. I walk towards her and put my arm around her. "I-I'm sorry" she says trough the tears. "I shouldn't have said that". She looks at me with watered eyes. "It's okay Belle". I turn her around and pull her into a hug. "Just cry, it will make you feel better. Let it all go". And she did. She let it all out. It was really sad to see her cry like that. It looked like she hadn't cried for months and she let it all out at once. I got tears in my eyes. She reminded me of my little sister just before she died. We cried so hard in each other's arms, it felt like the world stopped moving. Those monsters killed her. She died because other people couldn't SHOOT themselves in the head. I know that wasn't fair to think but it is true. If I got bitten I'd kill myself before the fever could. "Danielle?" I snap out of my thoughts "Yes Belle, what is it?". "Thank you for saving me. If it wasn't for you I'd be dead by now." Belle whispers and looks down in embarrassment. "Oh Belle you don't have to thank me for that, it's okay". I try to comfort her. Belle had calmed down and pulled out of my arms. "Why don't we go to that nearby city to find some food" I say standing up. I offer her my hand to help her stand up. "Sure! I'm hungry" Belle says with a smirk on her face and takes my hand to stand up. "maybe we can find some chocolate!" I see the child coming back to her. "Well normal food is priority" I say but couldn't help but smile.
After a 10 minute walk through the woods we arrived at the first house of the street. The street was empty but one walker. "What do we do about that walker over there?" Belle whispers while she takes out her knife. "I think we can avoid it. No need to alert other walkers" I whisper back and put my hand on hers. I "Let's first go to that house over there, right behind that red car. That one looks like it may have some food" I quickly run to a dumpster to hide and Belle is right behind me. I look around the side of the dumpster and see nothing. I walk around it and walk slowly up the stairs to the door. I look through the little window and see nothing. I knock one time on the door. "Danielle, Why did you do that?" Belle asks me with an questing voice. "That way I can hear of a walker is reacting on the noise. I hear no footsteps so I think we're good". Belle gives me a quick nod and makes a hand move telling me to I can go. I turn the doorknob slowly and push the door open. We enter a hallway and decide to go to the living room at our left first. I look around the doorpost and see a nice looking living room, like all the world went to shit never happened. I see a view drawers but not much. Belle is right behind me and walks to the next door. I let her know she can slowly open the door. Belle takes a deep breath and opens the door. Before she can open the door all the way, a walker bumps into her. Belle lets out a small gasp and falls on the ground with the walker on her. I run around the table and get ready to chop it's head off when I see that Belle stabs the walker with her knife. She throws the walker off her with all her strength and I see her knife is right in the eye. Still flabbergasted I watch Belle standing up, pull the knife out of the walker and look at me with a smile. "One less walker on this earth".
