"Don't I know it." He smirked bitterly, shuffling some of the dirt under his boots. Nothing worth anything was ever easy. It was something his dad told him a long time ago, and it was there very thing he kept trying to convey to Daryl. Right as it was, the truth was just a bitter thing to swallow sometimes.
Some bad weather or inconvenient circumstance would without a doubt ruin this day for many. Rick hadn't taken in the expansion of just how large their little barbeque had become until everyone had shown up. It didn't intimidate him any. That was all part of his nurturing, willful nature. He just liked helping people and making them happy. Those closest to him most of all. It would be more than a disappointment if something bad had happened. But for the first time in a long time, it hadn't, and a very large wave of relief had come over Rick when it did.
But what stopped his thought process was Michonne's admission. Not that the woman was incapable of opening up and enjoying herself, Rick had no room to be talking with his behavior in the past year. He was learning trust again too. Yet he didn't expect it so quickly from her. That much could be said when his brows perked in interest, his lips following with a smile. "Now do you really mean that, or are you just being nice?"
Rick knew just by stature Michonne was a no bullshit kind of woman. But he had to ask the question if only to carry on with the easy going nature of the conversation. After all, if she was comfortable with it, why not?
