A/N Warning major fluff ahead.

Michonne's POV

First Sign

I took the car and left the house. I don't want to be around Rick right now. This might be the last straw for us. We've never been this mad at each other before. The nerve of him to say I don't love him, but whatever. Fuck him. I put on some music to stop myself from listening to my own mind. A song by Blackstreet came on, just don't remember the name if it. I haven't heard this song in a long time.

Lately, I've been thinking somethings goin' wrong

'Cause you got an attitude

And you're not in the mood like you used to

Girl I can feel it when I hold you in my arms

The feeling is not the same

Can I be the one to blame

That part kept repeating itself. But how, it was on the radio. I quickly shut it off after that. I need to find a place to stay.

Second Sign

I picked up some snacks from the corner store, luckily they had my favorite honey mustard pretzels. I parked an an empty parking lot. I'll rest here for now. Maybe there's a motel around here somewhere. I have just enough money to get a room until I figure out my next move. Looking through my phone and noticed my old friend's number. We were never a couple, just friends with benefits. We use to talk often but ever since I've been with Rick i cut all ties with him. So why do I still have his number in my phone. Should I call him? Maybe he'll let me stay at his place tonight. When I click on his name I suddenly saw a man walking down the street singing. He did have a beautiful voice.

I don't wanna lose your love

I don't wanna say bye bye

True love is so hard to find

Wait, i remember those lyrics, they were from the song I heard yesterday. This is getting weird, maybe I'm just freaking myself out. I don't know what came over me but I blocked his number and deleted it from my phone. I turned the key to try starting the car but it kept making this clicking noise. Why won't it start? I tried one more time and it managed to start up. I drove up the road, following the directions to the motel. Why is the car slowing down? I pulled over to the side and it completely shut down. I tried multiple times to restart the car but it kept clicking. The battery must be shot. Just my luck. Looks like I'm staying here tonight.

Third Sign

I looked at the phone, it's seven o'clock. The weather's been gloomy all day. I closed my eyes and rested my head on the steering wheel.

"You still don't understand do you" Someone said.

I nearly jumped out of my skin. Wait, that voice sounds familiar. I got out of the car and looked around, didn't see anyone. When I walked a little further down the road I saw a woman, wearing a white dress. She nearly blended with the fog around her. She looked just like me, had my skin color, and my eyes. Wait a second...

"Mom" It can't be her, my mother died when I was young. I can feel the tears coming down my eyes.

"Yes it's me" The woman smiled and came closer to me. I reached my arm out to touch her but it went right through her.

"Why haven't you gone home to him yet?" She asked me.

"There's no point, me and him are done" I signed

"So your letting him go just like that, everything you guys built with each other? I've been trying to let you know how he felt but you've been ignoring me" I thought about the radio and the male singer. That was her trying to communicate with me. This is unreal.

"I miss him okay, I feel alone whenever I'm not around him, even now. He makes me smile, laugh. Whenever we hug each other I don't want him to let go of me. He...made me feel again, after being numb for so long" I wiped my eyes.

"That's called love sweetheart. Rick loves you. You need to let people know how you feel, instead of shutting them out. There will be good and bad days. Things will get tough, but you have to push through it, not run away from it. If you want Rick to be yours, you gotta show him you want it, fight for him. I didn't give your father a chance. I gave up too soon, I've regretted it ever since. Don't wait until you get to heaven to make things right. Do it now while you still can Michonne"

I understand what my mother was trying to say. Rick is the one. In truth we're both acting immature. I can't let another woman take him away from me. I rushed back to my car turned the key, pressing down hard on the accelerator. Please start. Rain started coming down hard. I turned it two more times, it finally started. I quickly turned around and drove off.

"You've grown into a beautiful young woman" Michonne's mother faded into the air.

I can barley see anything, even with the windshield wipers at full speed. My car started slowing down, completely shutting down again.

"Come on baby start" I grew frustrated by the minute. No matter how many times I turned that key the car wouldn't start. The battery was completely dead this time.

"You piece of shit" I shouted. I couldn't stop myself from hitting the steering wheel. There's no time for a tow. I don't care about how wet I get, I'm gonna make it home. I got out of the car, running as fast as I could through the rain.

Rick, we can make this work.

Rick's POV

First Sign

Michonne left the house a few hours ago. I'm at my wits end with this relationship. I can't fight for something she doesn't want. I sat outside on the steps to clear my head. I noticed my neighbor Morgan teaching his son how to box. He told his son how he needed to protect himself from people who want to hurt him. It reminded me of when my father, who was a boxer. He always gave me those speeches on how fighters never quit even when your down on the ground or how to protect the ones you love. This was starting to bother me. I went back in the house and sat on the couch.

Second Sign

I went to the liquor store to buy a bottle of whiskey. On my walk home I noticed a couple outside, having lunch. When he pulled her close she couldn't stop smiling. Even when they kissed I seen pure passion. It reminded me of my first date with Michonne, when I took her dancing. She had a smile that could light up the room. I couldn't get enough of her laugh. When our hands were around each other I felt pure hear between the two of us. I still ask myself why she keeps crossing my mind. When I saw the man get down on one knee I had enough. When I got home i put the bottle in the fridge and went to bed.

Third Sign

It's raining outside. She hasn't come home yet. It must be over for us. Doesn't matter, she didn't want to be with me anyway. Why do I still care. I grabbed the bottle of whiskey and sat on the couch. Why can't I take a drink. It's not gonna hurt anyone. It can make the pain go away. I leaned back on the couch and took a sip.

"Rick what the hell are you doing" A loud voice said.

I quickly grabbed my revolver and pointed it in the direction of the voice. Over by the window I saw someone standing there staring at me. Wait, why dose he look so familiar? He looks like me except he had a stubble.

"Dad" This wasn't happening. My father's been dead for two years.

"Ghost aren't real" I said, putting the gun down.

"Well believe it son this one is" He pulled the rocking chair from the wall and placed it across from me.

"Everything's falling apart and I don't know why"

"Because your letting it. Truth is you don't know what the hell your doing"

"I did everything I could. There's nothing else left to do" My dad shook his head.

"That bottle isn't you son. I raised you to be a man not a punk. So, what happens when you two argue again? Your just gonna sit around and drink till your wasted. No you talk it out like adults"

"Dad enough, it's over" I signed, taking another sip. Things got quiet between us for a few minutes.

"You look just like your grandpa, a drunk old fool who solved everything by a bottle, walking out at the first sign of trouble" He paused "Michonne is a sweet girl. I'm glad i got the chance to meet her before i passed away. I see the way she looks at you, I never seen a woman smile so much like her. You guys can't keep your hands off each other. Remember when I came over for dinner, when you left to get more wine. She sat me down and told me she loves you very much. She said all kinds of things about how she never wanted to go back to the person she was before she met you. I told her I already approved of her dating you"

I was shocked to hear this. She never told me about the talk she had with my dad. I hate to admit but I have been a punk. I shouldn't of let her leave.

"I love Michonne. She means the world to me. I'd do anything to protect her"

He stood up "Say it again" My dad raised his voice. I looked him in the eyes.

"I love Michonne"

"Say it again"

"I love Michonne" I shouted.

"Then get off your ass and go find her" He shouted.

I dropped the bottle and ran out to the garage. Wait she took the car. I pulled the bike out and looked at the wheels, both tires were flat. I can't change them now. I know which motel she went too, there's one thirty minutes where we live. I ran down the street in the rain. I'm not gonna stop until I find her.

"That's my boy" Rick's father faded into the air.

Michonne, I'm coming for you.

XXX

Rick and Michonne were both running through the rain, unaware their paths would cross. Michonne shouldn't figure out where she was. Her heart was pounding fast, she could feel herself getting tired. At the end of the road she stopped and looked around.

"Michonne" Someone yelled. She turned around and squinted her eyes. A knot formed in her throat when she saw Rick running towards her.

"Rick" She shouted. Gathering the last of her energy she ran towards him and embraced him. Both of them were crying.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean anything I said. We can make this work...I love you" She hugged him tighter. He was happy to hear her it. He hugged her tighter.

"I love you too, your the most important woman in my life. I don't want any other woman but you" He pulled her chin up and kissed her. She Wrapped her arms around is neck to deepen the kiss. He moved his hands from her back down to her hips, picking her up. Wrapping her legs around his waist she pulled his head back, sticking her tongue deeper into his mouth.

Once they got home Rick took her up to the bedroom and laid her down on the bed. He didn't care how wet they were, he just wanted to enjoy this moment with the love of his life. He walked over to the window and closed the curtains.

Turn the lights down low

Let's take it nice n slow

My mission is to keep you mine

Don't want this to be the last time
