A pair of warm and strong arms are wrapped around me tightly, encasing me in their warmth. I stir awake as my eyes flutter open and I look towards the wall of the cellblock. I feel a warm breath on my neck and the sound of soft soothing breathing reaches my ears. I turn my head to the side and my face is less than an inch away from his.
I reach one of my arms up and run the knuckles of my fingers down the side of his face. He stirs under my touch and nestles in closer to my hand, a small moan rumbling from within his throat. His eyelids flutter open and they look around for a moment before taking in my face.
"Morning." I whisper.
He pulls me tighter against him and buries his head in my neck, "Morning." He whispers, his lips against my skin.
He places soft and gentle kisses to the skin of my neck and I close my eyes at his touch, my fingers winding into his hair. It's very rare that he's ever this affectionate to me and I relish in his touch while it lasts. His lips move up from my neck until they reach my lips, causing butterflies to erupt in my stomach. He shifts until he is leaning on his elbows above me, my fingers gripping into his hair.
He keeps most of his weight off of me but his body still presses into mine. This kiss doesn't become too heated before he pulls back and looks down into my eyes. I look up him, his hair running into between my fingers and I think about today and all my fear and anxiety comes to mind.
"I don't want you to go today." I whisper.
He gives me a long look before he speaks, "You know that I have too."
"Can't I at least go with you?" I ask.
"I don't want you anywhere near this guy Bree. The things he has done, I'll kill him before I even let him be anywhere near you." He says fiercely.
A smile plays on my lips as I look up at him, "Besides," He says, "You have to stay here and make sure Merle doesn't get into trouble."
I roll my eyes and look up at the ceiling, "Your brother... He's become a bit of a problem hasn't he?"
"Things don't change do they?" He mutters and I chuckle.
I look back at him and look into his beautiful blues and I nod my head, "Be safe."
His eyes gaze over my face before he leans down and places a kiss on my lips, short and sweet. He pulls back and looks me in the eye, "I promise."

We all stand in the cafeteria area of the cellblock, sorting through the vast amount of guns from the haul yesterday. Rick, Carl and Michonne went on a run to Rick's hometown in search of more ammunition and guns to help us with our defence against the Governor. I'm not exactly sure of what happened but Rick briefly explained that he found someone that saved him in the early days, that that is where the guns came from.
I load up the clips with bullets as Glenn speaks to the young boy, "Carl, you stash these in the loading dock. Alright?"
Glenn hands another box of ammo to Beth, "Beth, put out more up on the catwalk. If anyone gets pinned down we need to make sure they've got plenty of ammo. I'll go work on the cage outside." He says, grabbing a fun and the blowtorch equipment.
"What we should be doing is loading some of this fire power in a truck and paying a visit to the Governor." Merle says from his room in the small infirmary, "We know where he is right now."
"You suggesting we just go in and kill him?" Glenn asks.
"Yeah, I am." Merle says.
"We told a Rick and Daryl that we'd stay put." Michonne states.
