She woke up with a gasp. She was having another nightmare after her and Shane fell asleep. He was till laying beside her and she sighed. 'What the hell is wrong with me?' she asked herself. She slid away from him trying to find her clothes in the dark and pulled them on.

She walked out of his tent and noticed there was still a small fire and everyone was sleeping. She could tell Beth had crawled back into their tent and Jenna didn't want to wake her. So she walked over to the fire pulling her sweater on along with her clothes.

She sat in quiet for a while until someone sat next to her. She jumped a bit and was surprised who had sat next to her. " Sneaking out in the middle of the night is my thing." Shane said pulling his shirt over his head as he sat next to Jenna. She was lost in thought and felt bad for her.

" Better at it then me." She smiled.

" Yeah. Jen what are you doing out here?" He asked.

" writing a book, what does it look like?" She said at the stupid question.

" It looks like a girl sitting by herself because she doesn't have someone to talk to." He said. She looked up at Shane. He really was different. He never really cared about what her problems were but now he did? " and seeing as I am her friend she should talk to me." he said.

" yeah? About what Shane?" She asked.

" I don't know. Hell I don't care. Just say something. You haven't exactly been talking much lately. It worries us." he said.

" Us? You mean Rick right?" She said looking at his shocked face. He looked hurt that she didn't think he was worried. " Oh please Shane don't start caring now. Not once have you ever really asked me what my problem was unless you got something out of it." She rolled her eyes.

" That's not true. I always cared." He said.

She laughed. " Oh yeah when?" She said and he sat back trying to think but he couldn't. She shook her head. " Don't worry about it Shane, I'm used to limited people caring." She said looking away from him.

" You are so stubborn you know that." he spat back at her getting tired of her quietness.

" me! Shane have you looked in a mirror lately?" She raised her eye brows at him.

He laughed. " Good point. Look all I'm saying is that it isn't a good idea for you to just close yourself off." He said looking around.

" Why not? It's easy. I wont have to worry about anyone dying anymore." She said looking at the small flames. " If I care than I get hurt but if I don't care then I'm cold right. Won't get hurt that way." She said.

" That sounds lonely." he said. " Jen I'm serious. You got people who care about you so don't shut them out. All these people are trying real hard to just get you to trust them." He said. " Hell I've been trying harder than anything to just get you to talk." Shane said.

" Yeah well they, and you should just stop." She said. " We are all going to die right so why eve…"

" Hey! Don't talk like that." he stopped her. " I'm not going to let that happen. Your not going to die anytime soon." He said as she looked at him.

" Why would you say that?" She asked.

" Your all I go left. Only family I have." He said. " That's why tomorrow I'm going to make sure things go back to normal around here. No more threats and no more bullshit." He said. " You and Beth, even Carl will be safe." He said.

Jenna looked at him. " What are you going to do.." She wanted to ask but instead she felt her mouth smile. She couldn't believe Shane cared enough to keep her safe. " No one has protected me in a long time Shane." She said and he looked at her.

" Well I'm going to. So get used to it girl." He said putting an arm around her shoulders as she lay her head on his shoulders.

She placed a hand on his and smiled. " Thanks Shane. You really are a good guy bit of an ass sometimes… but still good." She said and he smiled.

" Now I want you to get some sleep." He said pulling her up and walking her to her tent. " Good night." He placed a soft kiss to her forehead as she hugged him.

He walked back to his tent making plans in his head. Tomorrow everything will change and the people he loves will be safe. Jenna watched as he walked into his tent with a thinking look on his face and she shook her head. She was both happy he wanted to protect her but still scared of what he might do. Shane was a dangerous guy when he wanted to be and now she was afraid he may hurt someone else.

See Shane can be a good guy! lol i just wanted him to be a bit more kinder to Jenna. They are family :)
