the next morning
it wasn't even daylight yet when i feel someone on the bed. i figured brandi snuck out of ricks room, making her way up here "come here girl" i pat the bed still halfway asleep.
"now that's the first time anyones told me that" cliffs voice wakes me up completely. i sit up in bed and turn the lamp on "cliff?" he was taking a few things out of his pockets, setting them on my nightstand.
"how are you here so early?" i ask rubbing my eyes "got a couple stitches, some fluids, and now i'm good to go" he leans down, placing a kiss on my forehead.
"come on" i pull the covers back and he gets in bed next to me "where's brandi?" he asks "still with fran and rick, she's okay" cliff puts an arm around my waist, pulling my closer to his chest.
"are you okay?" he asks turning my hand over that was still wrapped "i'm fine" i grab his hand, giving it a small squeeze "the only good thing to come out of those hippes was the acid dipped cigarette..." i pick my head up and look at him "how was that by the way?" i giggle "it was great... until it wasn't" he laughs with me.
"so you knew them-" "yeah..." he draws out "i gave one of their friends a ride when i heard she lived at spahn ranch. i figured i could use that to see george. so, i got there and they live in heards-" "cliff!" i cover my eyes, laughing at his tone "i'm bein serious! they all walked out like it was feedin time- when i left they were all shouting too. one of em even cut ricks tire! gave him a friendly talk and told him it wasn't my car and he needed to fix it" i smirk at him as he meets my eyes.
"a friendly talk, huh?" i ask him "absolutely" he says sarcastically. i sigh, facing him as i place my hand on the nape of his neck "i'm just glad you're here" i rest my head on his chest "me too, baby" he mumbles into my hair.
"when are you plannin on movin into that grand house of ours?" i laugh under my breath "let's get healed up a bit first and then we'll make some plans, how does that sound?" i ask "alright by me" he mumbles as i feel his breathing get heavier. before i knew it we were both sound asleep.
