Aw, imagine Shane having Carol teach him how to change Judith's diapers. (FF)

OH NOOOO it’d be so cute - he’d wanna help in any way that he could - and carol would see that and it’d make her smile bYE

sharol + H-How long have you been standing there?

Mostnights, Carol doesn't cry over Sophia. It's often because she's justtoo tired to do so and can only collapse on the cot and sleep.But there are some nights that she does cry, quiet enough that noteven Lori wouldn't her from the bunk below her when she was alive.Those are rare, they only happen once or twice a month. Even morerare are the nights where she can't stop crying no matter what shedoes and the nights that she can't keep it contained. In the sixmonths they've been living at the prison, it's only happened twice.The first time Carol she didn't look anyone in the eye the whole nextday.

Thenext, she sees it coming and hid herself away in the showers. As farshe knows, no one is scheduled for a shower that day and it's lateenough, the only ones awake are the people on watch; Maggie andDaryl. She's safe, sitting on one of the benches in the showers withher hands over her face, sobbing. Her back is shaking, a trash cansitting below her. She's heaving from the force of her sobs, butnothing is coming out.

Beingalive without Sophia doesn't hurt her this much normally. The firstfew weeks after she'd died - again, Carol had spent most of her timewondering why it had to be this way. She shouldn't have had to loseher daughter in the way that she had. Sophia should have buried her,not the other way around. Carol doesn't look at this as a punishmentfor wishing death on Ed, now. She knows that this is the way theworld is now. The death of her daughter taught her that, but thedeath of Lori made her realize that.

Herthoughts of Lori turn on her and the sobs get heavier, they getlouder.

Still,it's a shock when there's noise not far away.

Thesounds of someone backing out slowly break Carol out of her sobs andthey stop abruptly. She wipes off her face and nudges the trash canunder the bench, turning her head and scanning the dim room forwhoever it was.

Whenher eyes land on Shane Walsh, he stops moving, knowing he's caught.“I, uh, I'm so-” He starts to apologize for whatever, but Carolcuts him off.

“H-How,how –.” The tears are still gone, but her voice is stillunsteady. She could burst back into tears at any moment. “How longhave you been standing there?”

“Ain'tbeen long,” Shane's voice is soft, gentle. Shane's voice has levelsin it, different tones. “Jude threw up on me, didn't know anyonewas down here.” It's now she realizes that Shane's shirtless, at-shirt clutched in his hands. Her lips turn up in a bit of a smile.

ShaneWalsh can handle walker guts all over him, but he can't handleJudith's spit up.

Carolwaves her hand towards the shower and it takes a moment but Shanemoves through the showers and is on the opposite side of the wallbehind her, t-shirt and jeans tossed over the edge of it. She moves  to pick up the trash can under the bench and lifts it to the top ofthe barricade. “Fill it up, I'll clean up your shirt.”

“Carol,you don't have to do that.” He says.

“It'llgive me something to do.' She argues.

Shanetakes the can from Carol and moves back a bit from the stream ofwater, letting it fill up a bit before he hands it over to her.

Shefinds one of the scrub brushes from a sink nearby and sits on thebench, his t-shirt spread open in front of her. They don't talk asShane showers and Carol scrubs his shirt as much as she can. Hedoesn't ask why she's crying, he knows. They've hashed out Carol'stears and her nightmares before, back when the pain was still fresh.

Caroltenses for a moment when she feels two hands rest on her shouldersbut relaxes when she remembers the touch, the gentle fingertipspressing against the skin just under the straps of her tank top.There's a kiss on the back of her neck and she sighs.

Lipstouch her skin repeatedly until hot breath is on her skin and Shane'svoice is in her ears. “Come find me the next time this happens,alright? You aren't alone.” Carol drops the brush against his shirtand moves one hand up to run over one of the hands on her shoulder.One hand comes from her shoulder and moves around her front, fingersrunning along her jawline.

Shaneturns her head towards his and captures her lips in a brief kiss.“Stay with me tonight.” He mumbles before pressing his lipsagainst hers again. Not enough time for Carol to return the kiss.

“Everyonewill know in the morning.” He mulls it over, shrugging hisshoulders.

“Letthem.”
