Loud and hurried footsteps suddenly rush into the room as Lori's voice calls out, "Be careful! You're still hurt, too!"

Within seconds, Carl is bursting into the room, a smile on his face, "Hana!"

Glenn chuckles, sitting down by my head to make room for Carl to step beside the bed.

"Carl," I smile a bit.

"You're okay? You're not hurting anymore?" he worries.

"I don't feel anything," I say, glancing up to Glenn.

Glenn smiles, translating my words to Carl who laughs and reaches to grab my hand, squeezing softly.

"I'm glad you're okay. And really happy that you're back," Carl grins.

Lori's laugh catches my attention as she leans against the doorframe, crossing her arms. But, as I take note of the cuts on her face, I could only feel concern.

"You're hurt?" I ask, pointing to her with my other hand.

She moves closer, standing by the foot of the bed, "No.. No, baby, I'm fine."

"I do believe you and your people are simply accident prone at this point," Hershel tells Glenn.

"Seems that way," Glenn agrees, avoiding the man's eyes.

"She should get some more rest," Hershel advises softly.

Glenn nods, setting his hand on my head and caressing his thumb across my hair.

"Get some more sleep. I'll be right here," he says.

"I just woke up," I frown.

"And now you're going back to sleep," Glenn perks his eyebrows up.

"Can I stay?" Carl asks, still holding my hand.

"We should let her have her space," Lori tells him.

"Carl stay," I plead, looking to Lori.

Lori sighs, a faint smile emerging on her lips, "Okay."

Carl smiles, sitting down on the edge of the bed, gripping my hand tighter.

"If you two need anything-" Lori begins.

"It's all right. You need to rest up, too," Glenn cuts her off, giving her a pointed look.

"If you need anything," Lori tries again, "Just let me know."

"I can't believe you killed a walker," Carl muses, his eyes wide.

"I can't believe you got shot because of a deer," I shake my head.

Glenn laughs from his chair, looking between us with a smile.

"You said you killed the walker with a deer antler.. Was it the deer that I saw?" Carl wonders.

I look to Glenn and he translates it quickly.

"I heard a gunshot and thought it was you guys. So, we followed it and that's when we found the deer and geek," I explain.

Glenn frowns a bit as I continue to say 'we', but I couldn't help it. And, of course, he knew that.

Glenn translates to Carl who nods his head, "I bet it was the same one."

A soft knock on the wall grabs our attention and the three of us look over. My eyes widen, seeing the pretty woman who smiles back at me- her smile even prettier.

"I wanted to meet the famous Hana herself," she says.

"Maggie, now's not the time," Glenn glances to her then to his lap.
