Safe haven, Rick Grimes

068. I WANNA DIE BESIDE YOU

Chapter sixty eight

"I wanna die beside you." 

The sun was shining in the woods, as Scarlett was sitting in the van with her legs having over the edge in front of the fire, Rick was sitting on the ground, as they were eating breakfast, they had gone out to find those guns they promised, as they had gotten up, they went and checked a house, as Scarlett had her gun up, Rick kicked in the door, having his gun aimed, Scarlett headed inside as he followed her, they walked in, checking the place out, there weren't any walkers, as they checked the kitchen there was nothing there they needed, as they then headed to the bedroom, checking all the drawers, they did find some food and a gun.

Where at night, the two couldn't keep their hands to themselves, as Rick was kissing, as Rick was kissing her, Scarlett was kissing him back, as Rick lied her down on the ground, Scarlett had her bare legs wrapped around his naked body, the two continued kissing each other.

Where by the next morning, Scarlett was sitting in the van, as Rick was crouched down looking at the map "you know if you can't keep your hands to yourself we're gonna have twins." Scarlett shared, as Rick chuckled "would that be so bad?" he asked her "for everyone else, yes." Scarlett shared, chuckling "I'll keep watch again tonight." Rick told her "today we're gonna win.' Scarlett told him "oh yeah. We're gonna need batteries for that walkie, too. Get it working again." Rick shared, as Scarlett nodded.

Having found a place, Rick lifted the door open, as there were two walkers inside, Rick and Scarlett killed them both with a machete and the axe, where they checked the lockers, taking whatever was inside, Rick then checked one of the drawers while Scarlett checked a crate, where they then had more food, clothes and a rifle.

Where that night, Rick's shirt was off, as Scarlett was on top of him and kissing him, Rick rolled the two over, making Scarlett laugh, as he then kissed down her body, laying his head on her chest.

The next morning, the two were walking in the woods, as Scarlett was smiling "what is it? What's that smile? Couple of days out, all we got to show are two guns, dented cans of beans, and some football jersey's pretty much." Rick shared "it's not about what we get. It's that I get to be out here with you. Where the only thing I have to worry about taking you away from me is walkers." Scarlett shared, as a clack could be heard followed by the grass rustling, the two stopped and looked to their right, the two brought their guns up, as Rick walked toward's it first, Scarlett followed after him.

"And if I hear one more word about fat Joey. I'm gonna smash somebody's teeth in." one of the men said, as Rick and Scarlett crouched down watching the two saviors golf "good riddance to dead weight. No more mascot crap." the other shared, as the two looked at all the stuff in the truck bed, Scarlett looked to Rick "go. Go." Rick whispered, as the two got up, slowly walking toward's the back of the truck, they took all of their stuff, as they turned heading into the woods.

Getting back in the van, Rick was driving down the road, as Scarlett was eating out of the bad of pretzels and putting new batteries in the walkie "we got your batteries." she told him, as she pressed down on the button, static came through letting them know it was working, she then let it go "it's been two days now. Jadis and her people wanted those guns soon or else. And then there's Simon who's gonna be coming for the deliver also soon. Everyone wants things soon." she shared, but as she did, Rick didn't say anything about going back, as Scarlett looked to him "Rick?" she asked him.

"A day and a half more..today and tomorrow." Rick shared "we can always go out again. I mean we ran into two saviors and if we run into anymore and they find out we're grabbing guns? It's not gonna be good." Scarlett shared "we're gonna be fine." Rick told her, taking one hand off the wheel and putting on her thigh, he squeezed "just a little more." he told her, as Scarlett smiled, putting her hand on top of his, as they continued down the road.
