&039;I can guess&039;

She sighed and turned away After thinking for a second or two she turned back, determined to make her point

&039;Are you sure about what you&039;re doing?&039;

&039;As sure as anyone can be about anything at thesuch a chance You don&039;t have to leave We could stay here for a while longer andthe others back here There ht even be ot to leave It&039;s not just about surviving anymore, I&039;ve already done that&039;

&039;So why are you going?&039;

&039;Take a look around you,&039; he sighed, gesturing towards the house and the barrier which surrounded it &039;Is this enough for you? Does this give you all the protection and security you need?&039;

&039;I think we&039;re as safe as we can be&039;

&039;I don&039;t Christ, last night ere surrounded&039;

&039;Yes, but&039;

&039;Just answer h the barricade and got into the house?&039;

Eled to answer

&039;What would happen? As far as I can see you wouldn&039;t have ht or you could try and get to one of your vans and try and get away that way Or you could just run for it&039;

&039;You&039;d have no chance on foot&039;

&039;That&039;s exactly my point This house is surrounded byThere&039;s nowhere to run to&039;

&039;But we don&039;t need to run&039; E her voice

&039;But you ht Back in the city there are a hundred places to hide on every street I don&039;t want to spend the rest of my time locked away in this bloody house&039;

Emma sat down on the steps in front of the house, dejected and frustrated Michael was busy working to unload the supplies fro his level best to ignore Carl

&039;I&039;m worried about you, that&039;s all,&039; Emma said quietly &039;I just hope you realise that if anything happens to you on your own, that&039;s it&039;

&039;I know that&039;

&039;And you&039;re still willing to take the chance?&039;

&039;Yes,&039; he said, siainst the bike and looked deep into Emma&039;s face It was the first ti real, purposeful contact with each other Looking into his dull, tired eyes, E into so in front of her was nothing more than a shell He was less than half the man he had been when they&039;d first , it seemed, all direction and reason She knew that he wasn&039;t bothered about surviving any the survivors was bullshit She knew in her heart that all he wanted to do was go home
