"David?" Carl says wondering why he isn't in bed.
"yeah Carl?" David says from the top bunk.
"Oh there you are" Carl says

"My gun?," carl says putting his hand on his hip feeling for his gun.
"wheres my gun?!" Carl said Jumping out of bed.
"calm down. its right there on the table." David explains Pointing at the small table in the corner of the room.
Carl grabs his gun.
"how is Max?" Carl Asks
"He still isn't talking." David said
"I'm gonna go over there. Watch Judith? " Carl Asked David.
"Yeah Sure" David said
Carl starts walking out of his block,
"You sleep good?" Asked Hershel
"Yeah, did you?" Carl Asked Hershel.
"Yeah, I Got Carol to watch Judith." Hershel Said.
"Oh good." Carl says while walking out of his cell block.
Carl head over to Cell block C.
"How is he doing?" Carl asks Maggie.
"Is he ready to talk to yet?"
Maggie Just looks at Carl.
"Can I talk to you out in the hall?" Asks Maggie.
"Sure" Carl said kind of confused.
Maggie takes Carl out to the hall.
"He's running a fever" Maggie said.
"Do you think he got bit?" Carl asked.
"I couldn't find any bites. Though" Maggie says confused.
"Maybe he's just sick?"
"Well maybe, but we can't give him all the antibiotics"
"No, we can't do that" Carl agrees.
"Maybe we should ask my dad?" Maggie suggests.
"We can't bring Max over there!" Carl says
"Carl he can't even walk on his own. What's he gonna do?"
"It doesn't matter we can't risk him seeing the food or the other supplies."
"Then my dad can come here."Maggie suggested.
"Maggie, do you really think he's gonna take a step out of block A?" Asked Carl.
"It'll be good for him. He needs some fresh air" says Maggie.
"I'll go get him." She said.
"I'll get Carol to watch Judith." Maggie told Carl.
"No, just have David watch her. He's already in there and I trust him." Carl says.
"Okay, do you know where my brother is?" Maggie asked.
"I think he's already there." Carl told her.
"Are you going to have Jarrod talk to him?" Carl asked Maggie.
"I just think my dad might feel safer with Jarrod by his side" Maggie explained.
"Goodluck" Carl told Maggie as she walked out.
"Thanks!" She yelled back.
Carl goes back in to talk to Sarah.
"You awake?"Carl asked
"Yeah" Sarah answered.
"How are you doing?"
"Well I know what my dad was talking about now" Sarah said jokingly.
Carl laughs.
"What was your dad in for?"
"Well nothing half as bad as all the people who are walking around out there"
"I know, those prisoners that we found here, two of em', they didn't deserve to die, they never hurt anyone. There's Is people who have killed so many. And they're still alive." Carl told Sarah.
Just then Maggie, Jarrod and Hershel. Come into the room..
"Uhh lets go outside" Carl told Sarah as he was letting her out of her cell.
As the two of them are walking out, Sarah notices Hershel's leg.
"Come on" Carl told Sarah.
The two walk out of cell block C.
"What happened to him?" Sarah asked. "Was he like that before?"
"No" Carl answered. "He was bit. On the leg. So we cut it off so he wouldn't get infected. My dad cut it off." Carl explained.
"Oh, I'm sorry."
"Yeah,"
"So what do you thinks going to happen to that asain kid?" Sarah asked about max.
"Well he's sick and Were not sure how to treat him" Carl answered.
"Is that guy a docter? The one on crutches?"
"He's a veterinarian."
" oh. Does he know a lot about sick people?"
"Yeah he's helped a lot of people, including me. About a year ago I was accidentally shot. Right here" Carl said pointing to his torso.
"He helped me, he fixed me."
Carl said.
"Wow. How were you shot?"
"I said... It was an accident."
"Oh okay."
"So I noticed there was some clothes in my cell" Sarah told Carl.
"Oh. Uhm."
"Would you like to explain that?" Sarah asked.
"Before Harry showed up.. Me- me and David were together. But after we were done.
I told him what We did "
" Oh, was he mad?" She asked
"Not really mad. But you were right he was hurt."
"Awe I'm sorry Carl"
"It's not your fault. But still I don't think he'll want to be with me again."
"So what are you saying?" Sarah asked.
"Well we could go up to the guards tower, if you wanted." Carl suggested.
"Uhh, yeah."
"Yeah?"
"Yes!"
"Okay come on."
The two walk around the corner
And then Carl grabs her and starts kissing her.
She kisses back
"Ok come on" she said trying to walk to the guard tower.
"Okay" Carl said.
The two walk a few more feet, then start to kiss some more.
Carl rips his shirt off.
Then Carl takes off Sarah's shirt.
"Omg what if someone see us?" She asked.
"Like who? The walkers?" Carl told her.
Carl puts Sarahs back to the wall.
The two keep kissing.
Sarah starts to take off Carl's pants. While Carl is taking off Sarah's.

A few minutes later they finish.
"Oh my god" they both say.
"Want to do that again?" Carl asked.
"Yes!" Sarah said giggling.
The two start again.
This time they are interrupted by Jarrod while they are finishing.
"Oh Jesus Carl." Jarrod said.
"What the fuck do you want?" Carl asked Jarrod.
"My dad wants to talk to you."
"Alright tell him I'll be right there" Carl said while picking up his shirt and buckling his pants.
"Sorry" Carl apologized.
"It's okay, it was fun" Sarah said while finishing getting dressed.
"Alright lets go" Carl said
The two walk back into Cell Block C.
" you wanted to talk to me?" Carl asked Hershel.
"Yeah," Hershel says with his Southern Accent.
"Now, he doesn't seem to have any infection. At all."
"What do you mean? Look at him! He's running a fever!"
"There can be other reasons for a fever" Hershel says calmly.
"Like what?" Carl asked.
"Well normally when you are dehydrated you don't have a fever. But you mix that with Starvation, exhaustion, Stress. They all kind of help to take down that Border your brain puts up."
"So that's why he has a fever?" Carl asks.
"It could be." Hershel answered.
"Well how can we get him to eat if he's not responding to anything?" Carl asks.
"Well a lot of the times when people are having problems, because there pets are to sick to eat. The vets suggests giving them formula." Hershel says.
"No." Carl says.
"Well now Carl, I think you should think about this." Maggie said.
"There's nothing to think about. I'm not giving what could be the
lasting our formula to this pussy." Carl told them.
"What if we found more?" Jarrod asks.
"It could be for him." Jarrod explains
"It's still taking it from Judith! It's what we would of found anyways!" Carl tells Jarrod.
"We're not discussing this."
Carl explained. "If you want to stay here Hershel and think of a better plan go ahead."
I'm Going To go check on Judith.
"What about her?" Jarrod asks pointing at Sarah who wasn't in her cell.
"You want us to put her in the cell?" Maggie asks.
Carl keeps on walking.
"Alright back in" Jarrod tells Sarah.
"He didn't say I had to!"
"Well I'm not gonna get in trouble for not doing it, so back in." Jarrod explained while gently pushing Sarah back in. " Carl arrives at his block.
"How is max doing?"
Holding Judith David asked while letting Carl in.
"It doesn't look good David." Carl answered while getting handed Judith.
"What do you mean?"
"The only thing Hershel has come up with was to give him Formula. And please tell me you understand why we can't do that. "
"Yeah of course, no we can't do that. What happens if this is the last of it?" David asks.
"Exactly" Carl said happy someone agrees with him.
" he hasn't thought if anything else?" David asked.
"Not yet."
"And David, I was with Sarah again, I took her out while Hershel was looking at Max."
"Oh, did you- Did anything happen?"
"Yes" Carl said while looking down.
"Oh. Are you guys gonna keep doing that?" David asked
"I- I don't know. Maybe" Carl answered.
"I'll just go ahead and keep sleeping on the too bed for then.
Alright?"
"Alright. I'm sorry David."
"It's okay Carl"
