I do not own anything Walking Dead or its characters. I'm simply borrowing them for this story. I was inspired by a song and wanted to share. It's going to be a multi-chapter full of angst, sex, romance, secrets and just drama. So I hope you enjoy. It takes places well after the season 5 finale. The Alexandria Safe Zone is beginning to thrive under the leadership of Rick and co-leadership of Michonne. Rick and Michonne were a couple for around 8-9 months before to the shock of the whole community and their family and friends Michonne ended their romantic relationship. The reasons behind and the exact deciding events leading up to this break-up are still unknown to everyone except Rick and Michonne. This story will explore through the perspectives of both Rick and Michonne the very sometimes confusing two sides to every story as their recent hook-ups with each other after a three-month separation have made them revisit the reasons why they ended up apart in the first place. I'm not really sure if they will end up back together or not but we shall see.

"So Gone (What My Mind Says)" Lyrics

(feat. Paul Wall)

You're gonna hear the pages turn

Let me take my Gazelles off...

Don't want this thing, but can't let go

Even though, I need it so

Your arms they soothe me, but I ain't no game

I ain't no toy, I ain't just brain, this ain't no movie mane

I'm a real woman, been down this road before

(I just need more) I just need more...

Why does my body ignore what my mind says?

I try to keep it intact, but I'm here in this bed...

I need to... listen, listen...

Why does my body ignore what my mind says?

I tried keepin it tight, but I'm here in this bed.

I need to... listen

Emotions deep down inside of me

I'm trying to hide, but they keep finding me

I want to lay low, but continuously you do...

(Uh, uh, uh!) All the right things (damn, damn, damn...)

So sweet to me (Eh, eh, eh)

What do I do?

Oh...

Why does my body ignore what my mind says?

I tried keepin it tight, but I'm here in this bed.

I need to... (damn, damn!)

Why does my body ignore what my mind says?

I tried keepin it tight, but I'm here in this bed.

Again, I'm scared...

Again (One, two) Oh...

[Paul Wall:]

You got that ocean of soul, baby you super thick

And I'm the man of steel with skills, call me super dick

I got that technique, that keeps you comin' back to back

And I know you feel it all in your stomach whenever you arch your back

(Yeah!) I'm a pull yo hair; (Yeah!) I know you love that

When I maneuver this tongue, your eyes roll back

I work them side angles; I'm a Kama Sutra pro

Kitchen table down to the flo, ass in the air while you bitin' that pillow

Girl you know how I chop and screw

That's what a diamond chip dick do

That's what a diamond chip dick do

Oh my mind says, and my body says... something different...

(He got that thickness, the kind that make you get up makin' biscuits with breakfast, so gone)

Why does my body ignore what my mind says?

I tried keepin it tight, but I'm here in this bed.

(He got that thickness, the kind that make you get up makin' biscuits with breakfast, so gone)

Again

(He got that thickness, the kind that make you get up makin' biscuits with breakfast, so gone)

Why does my body ignore what my mind says?

I tried keepin it tight, but I'm here in this bed.

Ahhh

I'm scared of this love...

He got that thickness, the kind that make you get up makin' biscuits with breakfast, so gone

And I ain't even thinkin' bout the next chick, that he mess with, so reckless... so gone...

Chapter 1 - Morning View

Michonne tapped the snooze button on the alarm clock next to her bed that read 5:00 AM. Even after almost a year at the Safe Zone she still hadn't gotten used to being able to do that. She felt her chest rise and fall in a deep sigh as her sense of peace washed away turning into a deep ache of regret in the pit of her stomach. She felt the ache grow because despite her waking up to the peaceful early morning sounds of the birds chirping and the light breeze swaying the autumn colored leaves on the trees she also woke up to Rick Grimes in her bed with his body wrapped around hers.

"Shit". She mouthed to herself as she slowly removed the clench of his right suntanned arm from around her small cocoa colored waist. She turned her naked body towards his and leaned on her elbow letting the sheets fall to her waist and said his name with a firm voice, "Rick!". She watched his body give a slight response. She decided to give it another try and made her voice louder, "Rick! You have to get up."

She looked at Rick with a scowl on her face as she watched him open his eyes and her eyes then diverted to the sheets falling pass his torso exposing his long and thick manhood that stood at attention. She shook her head as she looked away quickly. It angered her that she had given in 'again'.

Thoughts of their break-up from three months ago flashed in and out of her mind. She just had to keep reminding herself that it was the right decision to break things off even as she felt the softness of Rick's lips against her neck and his fingers searching for her orgasm in between the wet walls of her throbbing womanhood.

"Good morning." She felt him whisper in her right ear in his gentle southern drawl as her neck flung back and her eyes closed in response to his fingers stroking in and out of her and she mouthed the word "Stop". She hated but reveled the feeling of being so powerless to the man she knew she really couldn't be with. Her mind wondered elsewhere but her body continued to respond to his strong hand which gently played with her breasts and stiff nipples and while with his other hand's index and middle fingers continued to find its home inside of her; creating an outer body experience as she could sense her back begin to arch and her full lips quiver even though her mind told her body to stop. She finally mustered some strength and started move her body away but just as she started to scoot away Rick's tongue made its way inside of her now warm and wet clit. "Shit", she said way louder than she intended.

She wished during the months they had been together he hadn't discovered all the right spots and moves. Her breaths became shorter and shorter as his tongue dived in and out and around and she realized he had gotten cocky as he teased her and her climax. She felt him take his free hand and with force grab her bare firm ass towards him and buried his face deeper inside of her as his gray and black beard tickled her powerful thighs. "Shit". Michonne said this time breathless as she writhed in toe curling pleasure and came. Both their bodies collapsed into the damp cotton blue sheets. She looked down and observed Rick's smug look and sensed this urge and want to wipe that arrogant smirk off his face. So she grabbed his long hardness and licked it from the shaft to head before she took it into her mouth slow and steady while looking up at him looking her with his sharp blue eyes that could cut metal and his face flushed with sweat as he ran his hands through his curly black hair while biting his pouty peach colored bottom lip. She watched him tilt his head back as he reached down to guide the top of her head in a downward direction. She felt his hands get lost in her long black dreads as she sucked on him bobbing her head up and down. As she slid his dick in and out of her mouth and between her bee stung shaped lips as she felt his grip tightened on the top of her scalp so she took him in as deep as she could and stopped to divert her eyes to his face and watched him squirm and curse under his rushed breath. She felt him push her head back down wanting her to finish him off and stop teasing. She decided now wasn't the time for mercy and she could almost feel him bursting with anticipation as she ran her wet tongue up and down his throbbing member and continued on her mission to make the arrogant Rick Grimes and his big tasty cock her bitch…

"You still want me to go?" Michonne sat up in attention in response to Rick's words and turned her exposed tight body to an exhausted Rick lain on his back with his eyes taking her perky round breasts and her flushed face.

'I really don't know' She thought. Even though she had accomplished her mission she didn't like this arrogance that he had found but she was conflicted. She knew he thought just because she was still involved in the lives of Carl and Judith and that they still worked together that somehow she would let him back in her life as more than a friend even though she had been seeing Heath quite frequently and moved out of the house they had once shared. She didn't want to tell him that she though she had dated Heath for a month she still hadn't felt any real butterflies in her stomach when she spent time with him and especially not now. She gave Rick a look of discontentment.

"Really, even after all of that?"

Michonne waved him away. "Yeah, even after all of that."

"Can I at least shower here?"

"No, Rick. I don't want anyone seeing you leave here. We're already cutting it close. You know how word travels." Michonne knew firsthand. Just a few weeks ago she had overheard some of the housewives whispering about Rick leaving the home of woman late at night and he acted clueless anytime she asked him about the rumor. She didn't know why though. She had been open and honest with him about seeing Heath.

"So no breakfast? You know I make some mean toast and I saw you still had some tomatoes left from Maggie's farm."

Michonne ignored him as she became annoyed. 'Was this a joke to him?' She wondered. She remembered the time when she felt like her and Rick completed each other's puzzles. She knew they still had this instinctive thing between them and became reminded of it every time they slept together communicating their wants and needs with looks and stares but after what he had did to her she just found herself resenting him all the time. She wanted to stop these casuals hook ups out of the fear that it would turn into something deeper because of their strong connection.

"I guess I'll see you at the meeting then, Michonne." Michonne looked up at a half dressed Rick and enjoyed the sight of his rugged cream colored chest and strong chiseled back as he put on his beige button up. She loved and hated that this was her morning view.

"Yeah, I guess so. Remember it's your turn to bring the coffee, Rick."

"Yeah, I know. Don't forget the powdered creamer. I know you have some so stop trying to hog it."

"Who told you about it? Dammit nothing can stay a secret around here."

"Yeah, I know. Yet, you still insist on making me leave here so early in the morning without even some toast."

"Look if you don't get out of here you'll be toast."

"Oh stop it. You know you love me."Michonne stomach churned after hearing the word 'love' in Rick's southern drawl. Michonne took in the sight of a fully clothed Rick leaning down at her and felt his soft lips embrace hers. She found herself unresponsive to his kiss, still distracted by his last words. She had wondered from time to time if their attachment really came from love or had they just become each other's crutch. She ran through the numerous times Rick had tried to move mountains for her but she thought sometimes he may have done it out of gratitude or obligation even though she knew he cared. She questioned the routine they developed during their time as a couple where they didn't even need to talk they just knew what the other wanted or needed and tried their best to provide it. She had realized before she ended their relationship that the thing they once loved about their relationship had slowly turned into the thing they loathed.

"Michonne, you okay." She looked up again after realizing he had picked up on her change in mood.

"Yeah, I'm okay." She lied. She watched Rick give her a concerned look. She knew he didn't buy it.

"Okay, I'll see you soon."

After Rick left the room and she heard him walk down the stairs in his cowboy boots and leave the house she remembered there used to be a time where her not being okay pained him and she buried her face into a white fluffy pillow.

What did Rick do to Michonne? I'm as curious as you so maybe we will find out sometime soon. In the meantime check-out chapter two and feel free to leave some comments as this really is only my second fan fic EVER and first time really writing smut especially for two really hott characters so feedback is welcomed.
