REAGAN STARED AT the ceiling for a few moments after she woke up. She had not gotten enough sleep whatsoever, but decided to finally get up. She stood up from the couch and stretched her arms out. Everyone was already up and about, getting ready for the day.
After freshening up, she greeted everyone at the dining table in the corner. Daryl had gone hunting again early in the morning and brought back some squirrels. It wasn't much, but it was enough to get them through at least the day.
Reagan greeted a few people good morning and fixed herself a small plate, she took a seat between T-dog and Maggie. Looking up, she saw Daryl out of the corner of her eye. He got up and walked towards the sliding glass door, opening it and going outside to take a seat on the back patio. She shrugged, guessing he just preferred to eat alone.
T-dog turned towards Reagan. "Mornin'." He greeted.
"Morning." Reagan responded, taking another bite of her food.
"Rick, Glenn and I are going on a run later, you in?"
Reagan thought about it for a second. It was nice of T-dog to offer, but she thought it best that she stayed back for once, things always just went bad for her whenever she bit off more than she could chew.
"I don't think I'm ready to go out there. Thanks, though." She smiled graciously at T-dogs gesture. He shrugged, taking another bite of his food.
"Well, my offer still stands. Just let me know."
Reagan nodded. T-dog took his last bite of food and sat up, he went down the hallway, Rick had just exited and greeted everyone.
After she finished eating, Reagan got up and went back to the couch. She sat down and reached into her backpack, pulling out the notepad and pen Maggie had given her. She flipped to a blank page and tried to occupy herself for a bit.

Rick walked to the middle of the living room, gathering everyone's attention. Reagan looked up at him as did the others, and waited for him to speak.
"Me, Glenn and T are leavin' for that run now." He spoke to everyone. "So just hang tight, we'll be back soon."
"Rick, you should stay and rest. We've had a long few days." Lori said from the sofa opposite of Reagan.
"I can't. We have next to nothing. No clothes, ammo, barely enough food."
Lori didn't say anything after that, just let it go. Rick found Glenn and T-dog getting their bags and weapons ready. Then they were out the front door.
