Carl and I have been together for 365 days, today is our one year anniversary. Thinking about it makes me all warm, Carl probably doesn't know anything about it.

He was all nervous, being a cute dork. He has made my life better, and I love him with all of my heart.

Our relationship isn't as strong as it was, but we still love each other. In between runs and other errands we talk and hang out, but because of Rick we have different rooms.

We found our way to Alexandria for a couple of weeks ago, and now we all have to get used to this place and the fact that we can sleep without any walkers disturbing us.

The clock is 12:34 pm and I am going to help Alex (I just made him up) in the watching tower, it's actually just chairs in an old building right beside the fences.

I check myself in the mirror one more time before I walk out, finding Carl and Enid in the hallway.

"Hey, y/n. I was just going to leave, bye Carl!" She walks over to me, smirking. "Bye, y/n. Watch out, someone could steal him from you."

Whispering the last part made Carl not able to hear it, he probably thinks that Enid is just being nice to him. Enid walks away, making me and Carl being alone.

"What's up?"

"Not down."

"Very funny, Carl. Why so moody?"

"I'm not the moody one now, seriously."

"If you say so." I sight, checking the clock once again. Of course he doesn't know that today is our anniversary, and I won't tell him while he's being like that. "I have to go, Alex is waiting for me. Thanks for the talk, love you too."

I walk past him, but get stopped by him grabbing my arm. He spins me around, wrapping his arms around my waist.

"You know I love you, and that I'm always the moody one." His words are spinning around in my head. Is those words actually true?

"Let me go, I have to go on my watch!"

"I can't let you go without kissing you, so you should do it now." I sight, quickly pecking his lips. "Really? That's all I get?"

"Well Carl, next time you should try to actually mean it."

"Mean what?"

"That you love me."

"I meant it, okay? You know that I love you, and that I'll nev-"

"Stop it, I have to go. You can tell me how much you love me when you're not trying to make up for something you did wrong, thank you. Go to Enid and tell how much you love her instead, you obviously have a thing for her. She's crazy about you, too."

He steps to the side, one confused and a little hurt boy staring at me. He probably didn't think about the fact that the only times he tells me that he loves me is when he has done something wrong, why would he?

My feet travel up towards the watch tower, Alex running towards me.

"There you are, I've been looking for you. Problems with Carl again?"

Alex has come pretty close to me, so close that I can call him my best friend. I tell him everything, I tell him more than I tell to Carl.

"Yeah, pretty much. Let's talk about it later, we need to be there before Rick is checking if we're actually in the watch tower."

He begins to walk and I follow him, he slows down placing himself beside mine before he walks the same pace as me.

As we get in the tower I feel a little yawn escape from my mouth before placing my butt on the most horrible chair in the world, but why complain when someone is out there probably getting torn apart. Alex yawns too, sighting.
