Michonne's P.O.V

After Sasha and Abraham had their moment of what felt like forever, we finally discussed things.

"We need to find others, maybe they have food and we have to get them to safety." I said

"You haven't eaten?" Abraham asked

"No." Sasha butted in

"There's a basement under here, I was going to check it but I don't have enough bullets for what might be down there." he said

"I'll do it." I offered, looking down at my shoes.

Abraham looked at Sasha and  and walked over to me.

"Sasha, I need you to stay here for a second."

"What? No!"

"Baby, trust me." He pled

Sasha rolled her eyes and shook her head, she was so worried and she didn't want to lose Abraham again.

Abraham and I walked to the door on the staircase's wall and took both sides. He slowly turned the knob and swung the door open to my side.

I walked in with him behind me, as we slowly approached the light and flicked it on to see a couple of skeletons on the floor.

There was lots of stuff down here.
In the far right corner, there was a mattress, with no frame or box board. Just a mattress.  In front of the mattress was a large file cabinet and in red spray paint,
The word Emergency Was painted vertically  on the front.

In the center of the basement, there were three long sofas, the backs pushed together.

In the far left corner, there was bins of clothes and other old stuff that would maybe be useful.

Abraham had already helped himself to the emergency cabinet, "3 jumbo boxes of oatmeal, a couple of protein bars and some bottled water." He said

I sighed of relief that we had finally found some water. I needed some but Jay needed it more.

I smiled and flopped down on the couch.

Abraham went back upstairs and joined Sasha and  I could hear their faint conversation.

"Take mine, you got to eat something." he said

"Abraham we can split it. I'm fine." she said

"No, you're eating for two."

There was a moment of silence.. A really long moment.
I got up and joined them back in the living to find them hugging again.

I sighed and grabbed the food Abraham placed on the table and headed out the house, back down the road.

I don't have time for this gusht wushy lovey dovey stuff right now. I got a boy to save.

Rick's P.O.V

Carl parked the car on the side of the road and just stared at me,
"Outta gas..." He said

"Dammit." I said

As soon as I banged my hand against the window, Judith sat up and began crying.

So loudly and annoyingly my head could've busted.

I rubbed my temple and turned to her, "Judith, sweetie, please... Just --be quiet for a second?" I pleaded

She still cried, kicking her legs in the air and wiping her eyes,
"Judith be quiet and listen to dad!"  Carl exclaimed

And suddenly she stopped, Carl eyed her down and she eyed him back and for a second I thought they were going to draw their guns on each other.

I laughed and turned back around because I was going to lose my mind.
I looked straight ahead trying to think of a plan and that's when I saw a small figure walking in the distance.

The figure had dark skin and .. Dread locks it seemed.
Hold on.

I wiped my eyes, and shook my head. That can't be.
I'm suffering from Nostalgia.

I opened my eyes again and this time the figure was closer and It was obviously her.

I opened the car door and nearly fell trying to run to her. Soon as she realized who I was she ran too.

Michonne and I met face to face, she grabbed the back of my neck with her open hand and pulled my forehead to hers.
She began crying and I hugged her. We didn't say anything, but our actions spoke louder words.

I missed you, my love.

Carl soon ran up and wrapped his arm around us, squishing Judith into the big group hug.

Michonne pulled away and looked at me again, running two fingers down my cheek as she cried silently.
I put my hand on the back of her head and pulled her into my shoulder.

I caressed her dreads and didn't let go for a long while.
Carl didn't let go either.

"Rick!" I heard a voice yell.

We all turned around and there was Sasha and Abraham not far behind.

Michonne's P.O.V

Rick ran off to Sasha and Abe and I still stood with one arm around Carl.

"Where's Jay?" he asked, all happily.

Damn..how do I tell him?

I couldn't.  I just stood there and smirked, but not a funny smirk, a really painful one where you have to keep from crying.

"No." Carl said backing away

"Carl --"

"No! He's not dead!" He shouted

"He's unconscious right now..that's all."

"What happened?" he asked, through tears.

"He got shot."

"Can I see him?"

"The faster we get going, yeah."
I said

"Guys we're leaving!" I yelled to Rick and Sasha and Abe.

Rick pat Abraham's shoulder and ran to catch up with me.

"Where we going?" he panted

"To see Jay."

"He's alive?"

"Not exactly, but walk and talk.." I said

"What do you mean?"

I walked ahead of him so he would get the note to speed up and he did.
Carl walked with Judith ahead of Rick and I, a small distance between us.

"you'll see when you get there."

We walked with our heads down in silence again.

"Can I tell you something?" he asked randomly

"Of course." I said

Rick could tell me anything.  I would listen to him tell me about an 1997 golf game if he wanted to.

"I'm happy that I found you. I missed you alot and It's barely been a day. I've been a train wreck, Michonne,  I tried to keep faith and picture your face and it kept me going," he started "It wasn't until last night that I realized you're what I want because finding you in all of this, that was my miracle. You accept me and you respect me --  I guess what I'n just trying to say that I lo-"
I grabbed his face with my hands and kissed his lips passionately.
We held them together for a few seconds until we snapped back into reality.

"I like you too." I said

He laughed  and I did  too until I felt a cold soft hand intertwine with mine.
