"Nick we can't do this, Caleb is literally two steps away." I giggled.

"He is asleep, it won't matter."

"What if we wake him?" I questioned.

"He won't."

"Nope, I cant do it I'm sorry. Maybe another day." I sighed as I climb off Nick's naked body.

"What? That's so unfair you can't just lead me on."

"I'm scared ok, the last and only time I did that I ended up pregnant and look how that ended up. I just don't want that to happen again, plus I don't want to wake Caleb up. Also, the others could hear they are only outside by a fire." I explained.

"Oh baby, I'm sorry I rushed you into this."

"It's ok, let's just take it slow." I smiled as I start to put my clothes on. Nick nods in agreement and grabs my hand and kisses it.

"What was that for?"

"Just because I love you." Nick grinned.

"Aww, I love you too. But I'm gonna go and see the others. You coming?"

"Not anymore."

"Oi. I meant are you coming outside?"

"Yes I am, just give me a minute to put my clothes on."

"Okay, lover boy. See you soon." I smiled as I grabbed my crutches and hobbled away out of the tent and over to the others by the fire.
Andrea, Carol and Lori were sat together and so were all the boys. I hobbled my way over and sat next to Andrea.

"Hey, Jamie."

"Hey, we heard about your little situation with Nick just a second ago. I could help prepare you for it again if you want. Tips and tricks." Andrea whispered.

"You all heard?"

"Yes." Everyone replies in unison. I could feel the blood vessels burst and turn my face bright red with embarrassment. Suddenly numerous laughs came crawling out of peoples mouths.

"Shit, you will never have to experience that again," I said as I pinky promise, Andrea.

"It's ok, we are all human. How else are we suppose to keep the human race going? Little baby Grimes is going to be the saviour of our species." Glenn smiled.

"Alright, Steven Hawkings calm down. The baby is only a ball of cells." I exclaimed pointing to Lori's small baby bump which was now very visible.

"You honestly come up with the most amazing nicknames for everyone, how do you do it?" Andrea asked as she first pumped me.

"Just comes naturally really." I smiled, as I start to massage my ankle like Hershel told me to do every four hours.

"Your ankle still hurt? It's been a week."

"Yep, I have sprained it really badly. Near enough broken it, that's what Hershel said." I explained, continuing to rub my foot. I look over to my tent and see Nick pop his head out of the door and start to walk towards the group and I. I pat the seat next to me and stare into his eyes. As he walks past he kisses me on the lips and sits down, he grabs my ankle and starts to massage my foot.

"Babe, you are so amazing but I'm sure I can rub my own foot." I laughed kissing his cheek.

"Hey. I can't do anything. First I can't fuck you, now I can't even massage your foot." He sighed, continuing to massage my foot.

"Oi," I screeched, thumping him on the arm. He creates a face as though he is in pain and starts to rub his arm, letting go of my foot.

"Holy shit, I'm so sorry babe did I hurt you? I was only playing." I said quickly as I start to rub his arm as well.

"Don't worry, it's ok. I know you were only messing around. That's why I forgive you." Nick said, kissing me gently on the lips.

"Oh my God. Guys I can't get over the fact your relationship is the cutest thing ever. How did you become a thing again?" Lori asked.

"It just happened really. And he loves Caleb like he's his own. He also just gets me."

"It's so adorable. I love it."

"Thanks."

"So Jamie, what happened the other night. I was supposed to ask you. It's a recurring thing. We all keep waking up hearing you screaming in your sleep?" T-Dog questioned.

"Oh, I feel stupid now."

"Don't please." Andrea smiled, putting her hand on my knee.

"Well, I have had this medical condition for years. I get really bad night terrors. But when the world went to shit it probably made it so much worse. I don't know I'm doing it till afterwards or when I wake up. I only find out when Nick explains the one I had that night. To be honest I feel really bad for you guys because you are so amazing and thoughtful when it comes to things like this. You just don't mind that I could possibly wake you up."

"Shit girl. You have been through hell and back haven't you." Daryl said.

"You know it kills me deeply when I have to look after you while you scream. It hurts so bad, but I will do anything to protect you. It's weird though because Caleb can sleep right through it." Nick said.

"It's because he has grown up with me screaming the house down. I took pills for it, every night I had seven pills at a time. They stopped but now the world has gone to shit, I don't have any left and now I have no way of controlling them again."

"Baby, next run we will try and find you some of the pills." Smiled Nick.

"Thank you, do you know what I'm actually really tired. Any way you could carry me to bed?" I pleaded with puppy dog eyes.

"Of course your highness." Nicks laughed as he slid his arms underneath my chest and legs and carried me bridal style away from the group.

"Night guys."

"Night Jamie, hope you have a good nights sleep," Andrea yelled back.

"Hey, no screaming tonight please," Daryl called out.

"Fuck you Dixon," I said lifting a middle finger in the arm and directly pointed at him! Then a chorus of laughs filled the air.
