The next morning I totally overslept. Literally everyone was out of the house. I opened the door quickly, hoping I would be seeing Daryl perched on his spot on the porch.
But I didn't. I looked around, before my eyes landed on a woman, one of our neighbors. Jessie.
"Hey! Hey, Jessie- have you seen, Rick or Daryl? Glenn, maybe?"
She shook her head, "no, no the last I heard Rick and Daryl took Carol out shooting, they've been gone maybe 2 hours now."
I nodded, "ok, thanks Jessie." I smiled, staring to turn away, before I froze, "hey Jessie, has Carl been good when he goes over?" I asked gently.
"Oh yeah, little angel." She smiled at me. "You care for the kid a lot, do you?"
"I mean, he's my nephew. I helped raise him over the course of time we were out there."
She nodded, "I heard you were pregnant, I have two kids, so if you ever need help or, need anything, just let me know." She smiled warmly.
"Oh- thank you." I smiled lightly at her.
"So your about 3 months along?" She asked.
"Yeah, I'd say 2-3 months. I don't know though, time goes by either painful fast or slow anymore."
She nodded, "I'm sure your sick of people asking about it, huh?"
I nodded a but, "just a small bit. Like don't get me wrong, I want to talk about it, but.. The more people talk about it, the closer it makes it sound."
She nodded, "I understand."
"I'm gonna go and see if they're back, it was nice talking to you." I said as I waved and turned down the street, walking for a while before I saw Rick coming my way.
I stood in front of him, "Daryl?"
"He stayed out in the woods, he's hunting right now." Rick explained.
"Oh, ok." I nodded, "I am, loving the new Rick fit." I said, motioning to his cop clothes.
He sighed, "yeah- it's official."
I chuckled lightly, "well that's good. I'm just glad I don't have to wear any silly clothes for my job."
"Oh you got a new one, what is it?"
"I go on personal runs, me and I'm allowed to bring 1 other person. But while I'm out there it's basically do whatever, I go out and try to find stuff people want or need, but I can also hunt, or I can just make quick trips in and out. She did say when I was more noticeably pregnant she would have a different job for me, but I'm happy with what I've got now."
He nodded, "good, good. Me and Michonne have to meet up with Deanna and Maggie for our constable run downs, I guess, so I'll talk later, ok?"
I nodded, watching him walk away.
I turned to walk down the road for a while, not having much else to do at the moment, before Carol came jogging after me.
"Hey y/n!" She called, and I turned and stopped.
"Hey Carol. What's up?" I asked her once she fell in step with me.
"Have you heard about the party?" She asked me.
"Party?" I scoffed lightly. "Like what, a welcome wagon?"
"Yeah, pretty much. Everyone is gonna be there."
"Oh- great." I nodded sarcastically. "Sounds fantastic."
"I knew you wouldn't be super please about being surrounded by the whole neighborhood, but I figured it could be good for you."
