After hours of "reconciliation" in the basement, Rick and Michonne retire to the master bedroom to catch up on some much need rest. An hour or two before daybreak, Rick and Michonne are lying in the bed together. He has his arm around Michonne's stomach keeping her as close as he can to him; at the same time her arm secures his arm around her in place.

Rick wakes up out of his sleep by the sound of torrential rain and fierce winds crashing against the bedroom windows. He lifts his head up and looks over at the kerosene lantern on the floor in the corner struggling to give light to the dark bedroom.

Meanwhile, he looks down at Michonne begins to smile remembering his proposal and her acceptance. For a brief moment he becomes concerned over the fact that he hadn't talked it over with Carl but, Rick was confident that Carl wouldn't have any objection to having Michonne be his step-mother. So he lies back down next to Michonne and squeezes her a little tighter as he doses back off to sleep.

Rick jumps up at the sound of a light knock at the bedroom door. He slips out of the bed trying not to wake Michonne he runs over to the bedroom door. When he opens it he sees Carl holding Judith by the hand and whispers, "Hey guys, what's up?"

Carl looks at his father for a split second surprised that he's in Michonne's bedroom in his pajama pants no less but, doesn't think twice about it, "I just wanted to if she wants me to feed Judith breakfast." Carl whispers back.

Rick steps out of the bedroom and closes the door behind him, "Yea, well she's really tired from yesterday." Rick considers the fact; that Michonne ran through a number of emotions the day before and with the incredible sex they had on and off last night; he figures she needed some extra rest. "Uh, why don't you feed Judith and let her get some sleep. I'll be down in a little while later."

Carl nods his head, then picks Judith up and takes her down stairs.

After yet another, very quiet and subdued consummation; Rick and Michonne shower and get dressed for the day. There was something on his mind that he had to discuss with Michonne now that they had both agreed to formal union.

Rick pulls his undershirt over his head and asks, "I've been meaning to ask you this for a while."

Michonne looks at him oddly.

"Do you still get a…" the subject is somewhat uncomfortable for Rick so he says, "…a cycle."

Michonne lies down on the bed and begins to rub the olive oil in her hands. Then she massages on to her foot then down her calf and thigh, "You Grimes men are just full of surprises aren't you." She pours some more olive oil in her hand and massages it in to her other leg and says, "I don't know I haven't seen it since before the prison fell".

She stands up and begins rubbing her chest and arms with oil, "I think it has something to do with me not eating on a regular basis. I took a class in college that explained what happens when women are in a state of starvation. When food is scarce our bodies hold on to everything in order to keep the essential organs functioning.

Rick is staring at her mesmerized as she's oiling her body briefly then, registers what she just said, "So you mean to tell me you're not eating?

"No, I'm eating. I eat once a day…or every other day." She says with complete indifference.

Rick looks her with confusion and worry. Confusion because of her willingness to go without eating on a regular basis and worry because he was pretty sure that Michonne going without a menstrual cycle for months on end had to be bad.

He grabs his gun belt and begins to place it around his hip in frustration. Once he buckles it he walks over to Michonne in haste, "I want you to eat Michonne; I can't have you getting sick because you voluntarily don't want to eat."

Michonne looks at him with a smirk then walks over to the walking closet, "Rick I'm fine, I already survived that sickness at the prison."

"So you mean you're too old…" Michonne sharply looks at Rick before he can finish his sentence.

Rick clears his throat to correct himself, "What I meant to say was, you're in that part of your life when…"

"No, I am not." She tells him adamantly.

Rick, being unsure of how to discuss such sensitive matters with his new wife; walks over to her, "You need to eat more often than just once a every couple of days. What if we're out on the road for days without food; you need to eat more than every couple of days Michonne."

She looks at him closely and says, "That's not what this is about is it?" She walks over to the closet to some under garments and some pants. She stares at Rick while walking past him, "Rick, I don't want to have another baby. Everything is fine right now as it is…" she motions toward the window with her arm, "…as much as it can be anyway."

Rick is somewhat relieved that Michonne has no interest in having any children. He didn't want to lose her the same way he lost Lori. However, if they were ever to be in a stable situation where they would be safe and have access to medical care; without a doubt Rick would want Michonne to be fertile.

He walks over to her and holds her hand, "Chonne', I'm not gonna lie to you; I don't want to see get pregnant now either…", he pauses momentarily thinking about how he lost Lori, "…But if we were ever in a situation where my family and the group can be safe, I would want us to have that…option."

Michonne wasn't prepared for a conversation like this one; she knew there was no way she would ever want to have another child after losing Andre'. With a timid smile she brings the conversation to a close and says, "Let's not get ahead of ourselves Rick, we are sort of day to day right now. We shouldn't be clouding our heads with 'what if's'".

It finally stops raining; Michonne comes downstairs in to the kitchen dressed for the day. She sees Carl and Judith at the table eating oatmeal while Rick is leaning with his back against the kitchen sink drinking a cup of coffee and smiling devilishly. He passes a cup of hot tea to Michonne then he goes back to leaning against the sink still trying to restrain his obvious laugh.

Rick looks over at Carl and says, "Go ahead tell Michonne her, tell her what you told me."

Michonne sits down next to Judith curiously smiling at what Carl is about to tell her.

"Oh, so last night after Dad brought Judith in the room with me, I had this dream that me and Judith were walking through an amusement park and in the distance I could see people on the rollercoaster rides. I mean the whole dream felt sooo real." Carl tells her.

Michonne studies Rick face as he tries desperately to contain his laughter from behind his coffee mug.

Carl goes on to say, "It felt like we were really there, I mean could actually hear a girl's voice screaming as the roller coaster went down that first dip. It sounded a like a low scream but, I just figured it was because the ride was so far away from where Judith and I were standing"

Upon hearing this Michonne spits out her tea at the kitchen wall as Carl accurately describe the muffled scream she made last night in the basement. She quickly shot a horrified glance at Rick while he poorly attempts to hide his complete amusement from Carl's dream.

Carl goes back to finishing his oatmeal while a flustered Michonne picks Judith up and says anxiously "I better get her bag ready for the day. When she walks out of the kitchen she glances back at Rick as he snickers behind his mug; She shakes her head and silently laughs.

"I'm gonna get you for that." She mouths.
