(Rick is restless. He's been constantly worrying about the group and not getting enough rest. You're here to stop that and to make sure he gets some. Fluff included!!)
You walked into yours and Ricks bedroom. You had just gotten back from a supply run. You found a few books to read so you placed them on your bookshelf and you also found a new necklace. It was gold with a small red gem in the middle. You loved it. You hooked it around your neck as you walked over to the window, peering outside to see what was going on. Everyone was working or chatting around Alexandria. Nothing was out of place. Except, you hadn't seen Rick in a long while. This was you twos bedroom and you hadn't gone to sleep with him in the bed for a couple of days. He said he was extremely busy and you excepted that. But now you were lonely and needed his comfort. You decided to go find him.
Stepping outside, the cool breeze hit you as you began to walk down the street, greeting a few people. Soon, you saw Daryl. He was fixing something on his motorbike and you saw this as the perfect opportunity to ask him where Rick is.
"Hey Daryl have you seen Rick anywhere?"
He looked up at you, stopping his work.
"Yeah he was outside the church last time I saw him"
"Alright thanks"
"No problem"You walked off into that direction. The church was still being built so you thought that maybe he was helping. When you approached it, you saw him nailing some screws into a plank of wood.
"Rick? You okay?"
He looked up at you. God, he looked terrible. His eyes were dark and he looked like he hadn't got any sleep for days.
"Yeah...I'm working on the church"
Your eyebrows furrowed.
"I need to talk to you"
He stopped his work.
"Go ahead-"
"Back at our house. Please"
You interrupted him, gripping his arm gently and guiding him into the direction. You noticed how he was stumbling a lot. You opened the door, getting him inside. Once he was, you closed the door, placing your hands on his arms.
"Jesus Rick when did you last sleep?"
He tiredly smiled at you.
"I've been busy"
"You need rest! The group can cope without you Rick you've been working yourself too hard. Come upstairs. Come on"
You lead him upstairs, gently sitting him on the bed as you crawled into bed the other side. You gently pushed him down until he was on his back, his head resting on the pillow. You laid beside him.
"If I'm being honest with you...you look like shit you need rest"
This got a quiet breathy laugh out of him.
"I don't even know if I can"
"Yes you can. Now come here"
You guided his head to lay on your chest. Your fingers raked through his hair in a calming way. You felt him immediately relax into your touch.
"Now get some rest. Please"
You heard him sigh, shifting slightly.
"Okay...I love you...you know that right?"
You smiled, kissing his forehead.
"Of course I know that. I love you too. Goodnight Rick"
"Goodnight (Y/N)"After a few seconds, he was snoring away. You smiled to yourself. You were on duty to make sure he got rest from now on.
