Dwight and I had been driving for around two hours and we were flying. I was driving so fast because I was just ready to be back with my family. My heart ached to see them again. I missed my brother Rick. I missed Carl's crazy self. I missed Maggie's sweet laugh. I missed Eugene's ugly mullet. I missed everyone of course, but I missed Kinsley and Carol the most. I missed Kinsley's sweet smile that could light up a room, I missed her contagious laugh, I missed her comforting hugs, I missed her bad mouth that was just like mine, I missed laughing at Carol trying to tell her to watch her mouth and I missed hearing her sweet voice sing 80s rock songs in the shower. There was no denying that she was mine. I missed Carol's beautiful eyes that I could look at forever, I missed her sweet smile, too, I missed her comforting hands and her sweet voice. I missed my two girls more than anything in the whole world. They were everything to me.
We finally reached the tall gates of the Hilltop and my stomach did a backflip. I was excited, but I was also nervous. I was nervous that they wouldn't be there and I was nervous that the group wouldn't accept Dwight. I calmed down when a familiar face popped up over the fence. Maggie smiled at me and yelled at them to open up the gates.
I drove in through the gates and parked the bike. Kinsley must have heard the engine of my bike because I saw her running full speed out of the house, pony tail swinging and all. I couldn't help myself. I took off running to her. We met in the middle and she jumped in my arms, swinging her legs around my waist. She cried in my shoulders and I cried into hers. I leaned up and kissed her head and a big grin appeared.
"I missed you so much" she said.
"I missed you, too baby."
I let her down and I felt a hand tap on my shoulder. I turned around to see the love of my life standing there. Kinsley had found her. I picked her up and she started crying with me.
When I let her down she muttered, "I am here for good now. No more leaving I promise."
I kissed her sweet lips and drew both my girls in for a hug. Gosh how good it felt to have both of them back with me.
Rick came up and gave me a hug, as did the rest of the group. It really did feel good to be back. Rick's face changed though when he saw Dwight standing back at the bikes.
"What the hell is he doing here" he said.
"Rick, it's okay. He helped me escape."
"Okay that's fine, but I still need to take precautions. Understand?"
I just nodded my head. I felt awful that they were gonna put him in a cell. I knew how awful it felt, but we had to make sure that he wouldn't turn on us.
That night was the best night of my life. I got to share a bed with the love of my life and got to sleep with her in my arms. I had my girl on a mattress on the floor. Lord, I never would've thought this, but I loved being a family man.
