Ricks POV

Everyone got up and started moving around to their rooms. Glenn stopped me with his hand on my shoulder. He was so fragile, but so firm.

"Rick... could you maybe... try and keep Carl under control... thanks." He gave me a reassuring nod and walked away with Maggie.

I walked over to Carl and Evelyn. They hadn't gotten up out of their chairs.

"Um Carl, can I talk with you? In private?" I asked. He nodded and stood up, following me to my room.

"What?" He asked.

"You tell me..."

"Tell you..."

"What did you do that I need to keep under control?"

"Did Glenn tell you?"

"He told me to try and keep you und-."

"Well you can't do that! You can't control me!"

"Carl! Don't use that tone with me!"

"I was carrying on with my life. That's what i was doing. Glenn needs to keep his nose out of my buisness." He spat.

"Don't talk about Glenn like that, Carl! He's just watchin out for you! I know you're a teenager, but this is ridiculous. You need to put your attitude in check!"

"Last time i checked, it's better than it was two years ago!"

"That's it! You're going on night watch with Angel. She's new and doesnt know a lot of people. She's your age, you're gonna be nice. Go."

He stormed out.

Carls POV

I felt bad for yelling like that back there, but i mean, come on, he was being unreasonable. He was basically yelling at me for something when he didn't know any details. I quietly opened the door, calming myself for Evs sake. She looked up from her book and smiled.

I pulled my gun out from under the bed, putting it over my shoulder.

"Where are you going?" She asked.

"My dad's mad at me so he's making me go on watch." I shrugged.

"Alright. Be safe."

"I'm just going on the floor balcony." I chuckled.

"I know."

I kissed her forehead and walked out to the balcony. Angel stood up from the ground and held her hand out.

"I don't think we have properly met. I'm Angel."

"Carl." I shook her hand.
