It was a good warm morning. The weather was beautiful. I felt like it was going to be a good day.
Rick helped me walk outside to get some fresh air. He was giving orders to the group for moving vehicles.

"Where's Glenn and Maggie?" I ask.

"Yeah, we could use some help." Carol says.

"Up in the guard tower." Daryl saying, while pointing to it.

I chuckled. Maggie and I had girl talk every morning. She was definitely screwing around with Glenn up there.

Rick questions, "Guard tower? They were just up there last night."
I chuckle again. He hasn't quite caught on yet.
"What?" he asks me. I press my lips together and shake my head, not giving away Maggie's secret that was about to be not so secret anymore.

"Glenn! Maggie!" Daryl calls for them.

The door opens and Glenn comes out, shirtless and adjusting his belt. "Hey..... what's up guys!" Glenn says.

We all laugh. Rick says, "You knew?"

"A girl never tells another girls secret." I say, before bursting out laughing. Rick gives me this look. "You know, girl talk?" I say, laughing. Rick starts to laugh too.

"You comin'?" Daryl asks.

"What?" Glenn asks.

We all burst out laughing. Daryl yells that we could use some help. They make their way down to us.

Rick wraps his arm around me as we walk back towards the entrance.

T-Dog says, "Hey Rick."

We turn around. The two remaining prisoners had started walking towards us. "Go inside with Carol." he tells me. He takes off walking, anger fueled. "Come with me." Rick tells Daryl and T-Dog.

"That's close enough." Rick scolds them. "We had an agreement."

Rick, Daryl, and T-Dog return. The prisoners didn't want to be on their side of the prison anymore. It reminded them of their friends, the good guys who helped them.

"You really want them sleeping in a cell next to you? Come on, Luna. You were FBI, what do you think?" Rick asks.

"I don't know. I can see both sides.... but I lived with a serial killer and didn't know it, so I don't know how credible my word is." I say.

"You're word is always credible, and you know that." Rick says.

"If we send them off packing, we might as well execute them ourselves." T-Dog says.

They start to go back and forth. Rick tells the story about how he arrested a man for stabbing his girlfriend. He suckered the jury, got out, and shot another girl. He didn't want to take our chances after for fighting for this place.

"Our deal with them stands." Rick says.

The heat starts to get to me as the Braxton Hicks start to kick in again. "I need to go inside." I say. Maggie agrees to help me up there.

I go inside to help Beth, Carl, and Sage with Hershel. He finally got his crutches and was getting used to them. It was worth fighting through a few cramps to see this. He wanted to take a stroll outside, so we took him out there. We were all standing around and smiling. Rick gives me a grin. I give him a little smile.
