You and Carl were upstairs in his bedroom at Alexandria, flipping through some of his comic books. It was a nice day out and everyone else was outside enjoying the day, so you two decided to spend the day indoors together. That was until you heard Rick shouting from the bottom of the stairs "Carl! Y/N! Come downstairs please!"
With a groan Carl stood up, "wonder what he's on about today?"
"Who knows, maybe he wants us to go on watchout duty," You commented as Carl grabbed your hand and pulled you up to your feet.
"Maybe." With that the two of you headed down the stairs and into the dining room where Rick was standing, waiting for the two of you.
"Sit down," Rick said, gesturing to the dining table in front of you two.
Exchanging concerned looks, you and Carl sat down beside of each. "Is something wrong dad?" Carl asked.
"I just need to talk you to two about something I found earlier."
"What is it?" You asked, concern lacing your voice because you thought something was really wrong. Turning a bit awkward, Rick sat at the seat across from both of you and pulled a small package from his pocket and sat it onto the table.
Yours's and Carl's eyes lowered to the shiny yellow square packaging that Rick had placed in front of you. Your face immediately turned a bright red as Carl seemed to shrink in his seat. The small item that laid on the table just so happened to be a condom from the box that Carl had swiped on your last run. "Would you like to tell me where this came from?" Rick asked, pulling himself together from the awkward moment into the serious father.
"We got it at the store, a few miles south…On our last run," you said, fumbling over your words.
"So I take it you two have been…"
"DAD!"
"If you can't talk about it Carl, then you don't need to be doing it!" Rick seemingly scolded when his son got embarrassed over the fact Rick was asking them if they were having sex.
"Dad, it's just weird to talk about it with you…especially with Y/N"
"Well you're having sex with her, aren't you?" Both of the teens grew even more silent than before. "Look, I know you two are growing up and you're starting to have certain feelings and urges," this was it, Rick was actually giving you and Carl, two sixteen year olds, "the talk". "I'm glad that you've already taken some precautions."
"Rick, please. Carl and I don't need to have this conversation. We know to be safe, neither of us want to have a baby right now. That's why we waited until we were able to get the condoms, and I track my period so we never do it when I'm ovulating."
Rick was taken aback for a second, you were always extremely shy and quiet. Never did Rick think you'd be able to talk so easily about this topic, especially seeing how embarrassed you were at first. He also didn't think you two were so prepared and well-versed in being careful. "You've really thought this through then, huh?"
"Dad, we may be teenagers, but we aren't that stupid. You'd kill me if I got Y/N pregnant."
"Yes I would." Rick agreed.
"We promise to be careful, we already are. Okay?" Carl asked.
"Fine." Rick nodded, getting up from his chair.
"Can we go now?" Carl asked, ready to bolt and run.
"Yeah," with that you and Carl raced back upstairs. Absolutely mortified that RICK GRIMES, just tried to give you the birds and the bees conversation.
