It's been an hour since our little meeting and I was currently inside watching Daryl fix the vehicle.

"You know we have a doctor and a ultrasound machine at my community" Jesus says coming up to me. "Apple?" I shake my head and cross my arms as I continue watching Daryl who was talking to Denise until I realised what Jesus said.

"Wait what?"

"I said we have a ultrasound machine and a doctor at my community" he says and I nod. "And seeing how big you are you can probably see the sex" I raise an eyebrow.

"I'm not that huge and thanks" I say then walk outside towards Daryl. "Hey" he looks at me for a second before looking at the engine.

"Hey" he mumbles "What's up?"

"I wanna go see this community" I say and he looks at me. "Jesus says there's an ultrasound machine, I need too see how this baby is doing" and he sighs.

"Why you askin' ? We all know you ain't gonna listen" he says and I smile, he fixes his posture and hands me this nasty looking food.

"It's a oatcake. I know you haven't been eatin' much" he says and I raise an eyebrow "Denise made it, try it, it's better than it looks and it's full of healthy shit" I laugh then hesitantly take a bite making me laugh. It tasted sweet.

"Damn your right" I say and he laughs then closes the RV's hood.

As twelve came around we got on the road. I sit towards the back with Jesus making sure he didn't do anything stupid. Rick and Carl weren't all too thrilled with me coming but after explaining they sorta gave in. I look towards the front and see Rick grab Michonne's hand I smile then begin feeling down. I bite my lip and look away.

"Yo Rick what's going on?" Daryl asks looking through the blinds as we begin to slow down.

"We got a crash ahead, looks like it just happend" Rick says as we slowly pass by it, I look and see the car turned onto it's side.

"That's one of ours!" Jesus says rushing to the door. Rick stops and he gets out with all of us following, we see two walkers laying stuck. Rick pulls out his python and aims it at Jesus's head.

"If this is a trick, it won't end good for you" He warns.

"My people are in trouble. We, we don't have alot of fighters. I know how it looks but I'll play it out" he says and I look around. "Can I borrow a gun?"

"No" Daryl anwsers and Jesus points to the building across the street so we walk towards it.

"They've got to be in there" Jesus says as Rick bangs on the door.

"We movin' in or what?" Abe asks

"How do we know if this is the same thing as the firecrackers in the trashcan?" Daryl asks and I raise an eyebrow.

"You don't" jesus says worried.

"We'll get your people" Rick says "your staying here with one of us"

"That's the deal" Michonne tells him
"You and y/n gonna stay?"

"Yeah y'all go, just be careful" Maggie says.

"Yeah, we're going to be careful" Rick says as he begins handcuffing Jesus.

"Just hurry" Jesus says.

"If you hear me whistle shoot him" Rick tells Maggie and I, I nod then make Jesus sit down.

"I will" Maggie says pointing the gun firmly at Jesus as they begin going into the building. I look at Jesus then back at Maggie not knowing what to say or do. I watch as Jesus worriedly waits so I sigh and cross my arms.

"I'm sure-"

"Jesus!" A girl says running out of the building along with everybody else. "You're alive!" They hug and we look at them.

"Save it for later, get in the RV" Rick says and we all walk towards the vehicle.
As we get back on the road I watch one of the guys opening up a bottle of pills, Maggie watches as well.

"Names Harland by the way" he finally speaks.

"Maggie, that's my husband Glenn and y/n" she introduces, I give him a questioning look.

"We're bringing back medications, you may have saved more people than us back their Glenn" he says

"You're a doctor?" Glenn asks

"Yeah that's right" he anwsers

"You have any prenatal vitamins in there?" Glenn asks making Harlan smile.

"For yall or for you?"

"More her than me" I say and Maggie smiles.

"Well I was an obstetrician before and I most definitely owe y'all so I'll tell you two just hit the jackpot" he says and I smile but soon don't as I feel the car stop.

"We're stuck" Rick announces

"No worries we're here" Jesus says and we all get out to see a huge wall made out of wood. "This is Hilltop" I stare in disbelief at the huge wooden wall until I see everybody start walking.
