Laurens POV:
(2 weeks later)
As I sit looking out the window I think about how great things have been. Everyone has a job and they each do it well. We haven't been on a run yet but we're going on one tomorrow. Not many walkers have come around either.
I honestly thought that this place wouldn't last long. But now I hope we can stay here for a while. It's big enough for everyone and it's safe.
Daryl and I have decided that we're going to be together. I was very hesitant at first as was he. I mean if one of us die than the other is left alone to pick up the pieces. But we talked about it and decided that it didn't matter because we loved each other. Yeah it's cheesy and cliche but oh well. I mean its the apocalypse for crying out loud.
I hear someone knock on the door and I yell for them to come in.
"Hey bud! What's up?"
"Hey L! Nothing just bored so I thought I'd come talk to you." that's Carl's new thing, calling me L. I think it's adorable!
"Me too why else would I be looking out a window?" I asked with a smile on my face.
"What do you think we could do then? Maybe go outside?"
"No we can't you know no play outside. Could attract walkers."
We were silent for a moment and then I remembered something.
"How about you go get Alex and meet me by the kitchen!"
"Okay I'll get her and meet ya by the kitchen!"
He ran out of my room to go find Alex. I think that he likes her but he won't tell me. I go get my flashlight and knife out of my bag and head down stairs. I walk through the living room and get greeted by a chorus of "hi" "hey" and "good afternoon's". I reply with a hey and walk to the kitchen door and wait.
"What are ya waitin for?" Daryl came up behind me and wrapped an arm around my waist.
"Just waiting for Carl and Alex." I replied turning to face him.
"Whatcha gonna do with 'em?" he smirked at me.
"None ya." I started laughing
"Just kidding we're going explorin."
"Where do ya plan on-" he was cutoff by Carl.
"We're ready L!"
I turned and saw Carl and Alex standing beside each other.
"Okay guys let's go! Bye Daryl!"
I gave him a kiss on the check and the kids waved by. We started walking away from him and towards the back of the house.
"Are you guys ready to have some fun?"
"Yes!" they yelled in unision.
"Alright let's go!"
A/N- it's short but I thought why not update on Christmas? So hope you enjoy!
Merry Christmas!!
