After All This Time

Chapter 18

Katelyn's POV

Chandler and I had to separate to get our hair and makeup done before the show.

I was trying not to fall asleep while they did my eyes.

"So," the makeup artist started, obviously trying to make small talk. "How long has it been since you've been on the Conan show?"

"Um," I said politely, trying to think. "Maybe about 3 years."

"How long since you've done an interview with Chandler?" she continued.

I mentally sighed. I really didn't want to talk at the moment, but I knew I needed to be professional. "That's been about 6," I answered.

She nodded and then was silent, which I was grateful for.

Once I was done getting my dress on, and my hair and makeup were good, I went to meet Chandler backstage.

He was facing the show stage, watching the show.

I went and stood next to him.

He looked down at me and smiled. He put his arm around my shoulder and pulled me into his side.

I wrapped my arms around him and put my head on his shoulder.

Soon enough, Conan O'Brien, the host, stood up to introduce us.

"We have a wonderful treat for you guys tonight!" he announced, which triggered applause from the audience.

"They played Carl and Enid Grimes on AMC's hit show The Walking Dead! Please welcome Chandler Riggs and Katelyn Nacon!"

The theme song for the show started playing as Chandler and I walked out, smiling and waving to the audience.

We walked up to Conan.

Chandler gave him a hug and sat down in the chair next to the desk. I moved in and gave him one as well before sitting down next to Chandler.

Conan went down and sat down behind his desk as the applause fizzled out.

Once it was quiet, Conan sighed and turned to look at us.

"Hi, guys!" he said cheerfully.

"Hi," I replied, laughing.

"Well," he sighed. "They all seem to still love you."

Chandler and I laughed.

"So," he started. "The Walking Dead." We nodded. "It was a big hit."

"Yeah," Chandler agreed. "It was crazy."

"Katelyn," Conan said, pointing at me. "Do you still get recognized for playing Enid."

"I do," I sighed. "All the time, which is strange since it's been 6 years since I played her."

"What about you Chandler?" he asked.

"Yeah, I still do, too," he confirmed.
