A/N: And here I go again! Lol. Sorry, Rick, but you started it by introducing yourself to us complaining about your marriage!
A Day in the Life
Title: Prayer
Characters: Rick, Lori
Pairings: Rick/Lori
Word Count: 160
All relationships had problems. Every love story hit a speed bump. All marriages had something to work through. It was practically his mantra for the past month of Lori's cold shoulders and icy silences. She wasn't mean, she didn't speak out, and she never even raised her voice. It was her complete lack of response that worried him! If she fought and yelled and screamed, he'd know that everything was fine, because that fighting spirit was what made him fall for her so long ago.
Instead, they ate in silence and forced smiles for Carl's sake. They barely talked and went to bed on opposite sides of the bed, as if touching could burn them. He couldn't take it anymore! He turned in bed and wrapped his arms around her, feeling her stiffen for a second until she relaxed into his hold. "I love you," he whispered into her ear; and it sounded more like a prayer than a fact.
A/N: Happy Season Premiere Day guys! Unless you're in another time zone or reading this another day lol.
Please review!
