I bang on the gate as we try to drawn them in. Rick has a small group trying to clear out a small part of the prison. I stop making noise and sit on the grass as everyone watches Rick lead some of our group inside. I braid long pieces of grass together and hum to myself.
After a few minutes I lay on the grass and close my eyes while I face the sun. The warm rays heat me up and make me smile.
I hear the gate open and people walk towards us. Glenn leads us into the cell block. I look around at the prison. It's cool in here. I wander to the end cell black and set my bags on the floor.
" Hey Jesse. " Carl smiles as he walks in.
" Let me guess, Hershel doesn't want you sleeping in the same cell as Beth? "
Carl rolls his eyes and nods a bit.
" I knew it. " I lay on the cot and sigh.
" Wanna share a cell? " Carl asks.
I nod. " Sure. Come on in the Jesse's wild cell. "
Carl laughs and climbs up onto the top bunk. He organizes his stuff and lays down. " So.....How was your day? "
I shrug. " The same as always. "
" Well, not exactly. It's not everyday we take over a cell block. "
I laugh a little and smile. " I guess not. It's pretty cool in here. " I look around the room.
" Yeah. It's different. New. I kinda wish we had taken the cell block over before. "
" Me too. " We lay in a comfortable silence. " Night Carl. "
" Night Jesse. "
