-One Year Later-

It's been a year since we arrived at the farm, a year since we've fixed up the place and turned it into a home. It's so quiet here, so peaceful. We farmed on the land, grew some crops, we hunt a bit in the woods from time to time. The boys are growing and they finally get to act like kids by running around, playing, drawing, getting in some trouble here and there but nothing dangerous. We fixed up the solar panel a bit, we were so damn lucky when Aasim found the books on how to work and fix them.

"What are you thinking about?" I heard as I turned away from AJ and Tenn and I look at Clementine who came up to me and kissed my cheek and I smile as I take her hand in mind.

"It's been a year already." I say an she nods.

"Yep.... One year on the dot." She says and I look at the boys again.

"Been married for a year too." I say and I can feel her smile. I know she's smiling and it made me smile a bit.

"God I remember when Louis was squealing and planning everything." I said and closed my eyes remembering that day. We didn't have anything big, just a small little ceremony. Ruby found some flowers for Clementine and god she looked so damn beautiful, she always looks beautiful.

"Whatcha thinking about?" She asked again and I opened my eyes and look at her as I tap her cap gently.

"Just how beautiful you looked that day." I say and she smiles at me.

"And you looked very dapper yourself." She says and I laugh a little as I look into her eye.

"I remember when Louis cried too.... Boy gets emotional at weddings." I say as I watch him teaching AJ how to play marbles.

"AJ was really happy too." I mentioned and he looked over to us and waved and we waved back. He went back to playing with Louis and Tenn and I looked over to see Willy by the barn.

"You think Christa will be back?" I asked. Her and her daughter came back to the farm a few months ago and only stayed the night. We offered to keep Mary here for her but she wanted to stay with her mom.

"I hope so..... AJ liked Mary, someone who's his age to play with, someone new for him to meet." She says and I nod as we went and sat on the porch swing.

"Hey maybe that would be his new girlfriend." I joked and she shoved me gently.

"Now don't go saying that, he doesn't need a girlfriend yet." She says and I smile.

"Such a mom thing to say."

"Says the only person that AJ calls mom." She says and I smile.

"And I'll gladly let him call me that.... It feels nice." I say and the wind blows softly and I close my eyes as I feel the breeze on my face.

"You look so relaxed." She comments and I nod.

"Haven't dealt with bad shit for a year, Yea we get a few walkers here and there but nothing bad or... life threatening." I say.

"When all this started... ten years ago.... I remember Lee saying that to me and Kajaa as we sat and talked on Hershel's farm." She says and I look at her and see she had closed her eye too. I look at her hand intertwined with mine. I look at the ring on her finger and I lift her hand up and I kiss it and she looks at me and I smile at her.

"Mom, Clem." I heard and looked as AJ ran up to us and showed us his drawing. He's gotten a lot better and I smile as I look at it.

"Very good." I say and rub his head. He then taps me and smiles.
