Drabble written just after the end of the episode. I'm devasted.

Contains spoilers for the mid-season finale.

I didn't review this and I don't own TWD.

She sits on the chair in the middle of the office.

It's a quiet night. The room is dark, save for the moonlight coming through the window.

She doesn't want to turn the lights on.

She can hear Jesus doing what she told him to do. They are fortifying the security, putting everyone inside, back to safety.

She breathes slowly.

There's static on the radio.

She picks it up. She can hear a hiccup.

Her heart stops on her chest.

"Carl's been bitten." She hears someone says through the radio.

She drops the radio on the floor. There are tears falling from her eyes. Her heart is shattered in so many pieces that she doubts that it'll ever fully heal.

The only sound comes from the weak beats of her heart.

A sob escapes from her lips.

It's a quiet night. It's a sad, sad night.
