Today was one of the few days where everything in Alexandria was peaceful. No Negan, no walkers, no Saviors, and no arguing between residents for whatever reason. Today was so peaceful, that Rick had even given both you and Carl the day off. It's like a dream, isn't it?

After hearing that the both of you had gotten the say off, he almost immediately asked you to spend time with him at his place. For a guy as stern and battle hardened as him, he was awfully cute when he did it. How could you deny him?

The moment you got to his house, he practically dragged you up to his room to read the newest comics he found with him. So, here you were, laying in his bed as he lays between your legs, his head resting on your stomach as he read a comic. You were playing with his hair, quietly watching him as he read and occasionally looked up at you, before he continued to read.

"Mmm... This is nice."

He mumbled as he closed his comic book and set it aside, rolling over onto his stomach to look up at you. He let out a contented hum as he felt your fingers run through his hair and start to massage his scalp, his one eye closing. He just rested his head on your stomach, letting you do as you pleased with his hair while he cuddled with you, gently rubbing his cheek against your belly.
