Chapter 37

Glenn's P.O.V~

It just feels so right to have Ruby in my arms again.

She leans in and deepens the kiss and I know now that I will never want to stop.

The feeling of her body pressed against my own is so natural.

Her fingers are running through my hair and my arms are holding me up as we get closer and closer to laying down.

Suddenly the door opens and I can hear someone talking, but i'm to engaged with Ruby to hear what's happening around me.

Suddenly Ruby pulls away from me.

"Haha Rick I remember Glenn, I remember stuff!" She says as she jumps up and hugs him.

Pangs of jealousy riddle my body as I see them touch.

"Wow that's... great Rubes..." Rick says, sounding deflated.

I stand up and take Ruby's arm.

"So what do you want Rick?" I ask as politely as I can.

"I was just coming to invite Ruby here on a run, it'll only take till mid afternoon." He informs both me and Ruby.

"Sounds peachy." Ruby coos as she picks our plates up neatly.

"So who's coming?" I ask suspiciously.

"It'll just be me and Ruby, it's a two-person job." Rick says bluntly, completely blocking all chance of me getting an invitation.

I look to Ruby and see her happily oblivious face.

"C'mon then, let's head." She says to the both of us.

Rick turns on his heel and I grab the plates off Ruby with one hand and intertwine my spare hand in hers.

I feel her quickly tense and her eyes dart downwards.

"Glenn?" She says, her voice hushed.

"Yeah?" I reply.

"I like holding your hand." She giggles.

I pull our hands up to my mouth and kiss her hand gently.

"I missed this." I admit to her.

We get to the kitchen and she turns to me.

"I'm going to get all my stuff and i'll see you tonight, in OUR cell." She says as she leans up and kisses my cheek.

"I love you." I tell her, without thinking about the fact that she is still getting to know me.

"Bye... Glenn." she says awkwardly as she walks away.

Damn it. I think to myself as I wash our dishes.

Ruby's P.O.V~

"Hey!" I hear a woman's voice shout at me as I round the corner of the cell Rick and I shared.

I turn around to see a tall, familiar looking, short haired girl.

"Hi?" I ask inquisitively.

"Look here Ruby, you snaked my man, but your fat ass better not snake the only other dateable single guy here, alright?" She says angrily, pushing me against the cell door.

I compose myself and roll my shoulders back, to make sure they haven't popped out as they usually do.

"I don't remember who you are but I have not 'snaked' any guys you anorexic hill billy." I tell her calmly, my tone keeping completely even throughout the spiel.

Her face contorted in rage and all of a sudden Rick was standing in between us.

"Let's go Ruby." He says as he makes a face that says 'she's crazy'.
