The car ride was nice. I hadn't felt safe in such a long time. I could tell Rick was a bit on edge, probably because of Merle. I have a feeling that Merle might make it, but that's just a theory. I over heard Morales talking to Rick. He said the only person that might be upset about his absence, was someone named Daryl. His brother. Suddenly there was a car alarm coming up from behind us. It was Glenn in a nice red car. He looked like he was having fun.
"So, I never got your name." said Andrea.
"Oh, it's Avis." I replied. Jacqui and Andrea nodded.
"Where are you from?" Jacqui asked.
"Clayton, it's got-well had-about 2,000 people." I replied
"What did you do before this?" she asked.
"Um, I went to college. I was in cosmetology school, though it may seem hard to think about." I laughed lightly.
"Why?" Andrea asked with a smile.
"Well, usually when people take a glance at me, they think I'm a loner, or I don't know, mean?" I laughed. "I always liked doing my sister's hair." I smiled at all times I did Cathy's hair, her always asking me if I was done yet.
"Well, now that I know that you like cosmetology, we can finally have a girls night." said Andrea. The three of us laughed. I sighed.
"Girls," T-dog rolled his eyes, and we laughed once more. We finally pulled up to what I assumed was their camp. Morales turned to Rick and I and said to come meet the camp. He got out and I took his place up front with Rick looking disappointed. I patted his shoulder and he told me to go on.
I got out of the truck and went around another car noticing Morales hugging his family. I also noticed Andrea hugging I think her sister? I don't know, they looked relieved though. I then spot Glenn by the nice red car. I quickly made my way over to him, ignoring the fact that other camp members were a bit confused about who I was.
"Hey," I said.
"Welcome to our home," Glenn said with a smile. An older looking man with a rifle came over suddenly.
"Well who's this?" he asked with a smile.
"Avis, she's the new kid." Glenn replied.
"I see that. I'm Dale." I shook his out-stretched hand. He seemed very nice. He nodded his head and walked over to Morales, hugging him. I looked around and saw that there some kids that looked to be my sister's age. I looked to the front of the red car, there was a good looking man with a gun looking over at another woman and her son. Glenn took noticed of me watching the camp.
"You'll meet everyone later." I nodded.
"How'd you get out of there anyway?" asked the good looking man.
"New guy-he got us out." Glenn replied.
"New guy?" he asked.
"Yeah, crazy vato. Hey, helicopter boy! Come say hello." Morales shouted to Rick. I turned around to see where he was. Rick appeared with his hands on his hips looking upset. "Guy's a cop like you." I assumed he was talking to the good looking man with the gun. Rick looked stunned. I looked in the direction of where he was looking. He was looking at the woman with her son.
"Dad!" the boy yelled. My eyes widened. I looked to Rick and he was on the verge of tears. Happy tears. He grabbed the boy in a bear hug and walked over to well his wife. She looked just as stunned. They hugged each other for a while. I smiled, I wish I had that.
