I make no money from writing this story, it is strictly for entertainment purposes only. Do Not Repost Anywhere. - Chapter List
Genuine laughter was sounding from the lips of the different group members as wine was passed around. The happiness that emitted from everyone was awe-inspiring, there hadn't been this much joy in any of their lives since before the world had fallen apart; it was a beautiful sight to witness, people happily laughing and sharing stories around a dinner table, nothing but smiles on everyones faces.
Glenn and Daryl had both been favoring the wine, though Glenn more than Daryl. His face was rising quickly into a heated shade of red, and Naomi grinned a bit as she pressed the back of her hand onto one of his cheeks. "You're really warm." She informed teasingly, grinning as he blushed further from her actions.
Rick stood and tapped a knife against his wine glass as everyone's attention fell onto him. "I don't think we've properly thanked our host for his hospitality." Rick reminded, and then went on to toast Jenner. There was a loud chorus of 'Here-Here's' and 'Booyah's' rolling around the table, and once they died down everyone began to enjoy their food.
Before Jenner got the chance to thank Rick for his heartwarming words, Shane's voice rung through the crowd and brought a new air over the group. "So when are you gonna tell us what happened here, Doc? The doctors were supposed to be figuring out a cure, what happened?"
A frown crossed Rick's lips as he furrowed his eyebrows. Shane seemed to cause that expression in a lot of people lately. "We're celebrating, we don't need to do this right now." Everyone was quiet as a more serious vibe was brought about the room.
"No, no. Wait a second. This is why we came here, Rick. To find answers. Instead, we found him. One man. Why?" His eyes were narrowed in Rick's direction, it was as if he was trying to make an enemy out of everyone around him. His gaze settled on Jenner as he waited for an explanation.
After a long sip from his wine glass, Jenner bit down on his lower lip in thought. He would need to explain it delicately as to not upset anyone in the group. "Well, when things got bad a lot of people just left; wanted to be with their families. When things got worse, when the military failed, a lot of people bolted, just ran without even trying to consider staying. The rest..they couldn't stand to go out there..to see what had happened..what had come of the world they once lived in. They uh, opted out. There was a massive rash of suicides in the building..that was a really hard time." His voice fell quiet as he took another sip from his cup. "I stayed and kept looking for a cure, hoping to at least try and do some good here..but.." He shook his head after cutting himself off. He played with his fork quietly as he decided he was done discussing the matter.
"Dude, you're such a buzzkill man." Glenn's slurred voice broke the uncomfortable silence not long after it had started. Naomi let off a quiet laugh, covering her mouth and shaking her head before bringing the last drops of her third glass of wine to her lips.
As Naomi carefully wrapped her fingers around the bottle of wine between herself and Lori, she topped off her glass before passing it over. She noticed Carl's eyes following the bottle and Naomi carefully nudged Lori, who soon caught on to the expression Carl gave. "I wanna try some." He informed abruptly, causing a laugh to erupt from both Naomi and Rick.
Lori was about to refuse when she noticed Rick flash a wink in her direction, and after pouring some into Carl's glass everyone watched him expectantly. Carl looked around before pressing the glass up towards his face, after sniffing it a bit he took a bigger sip than intended and instantly his face dropped into a sour expression. He swallowed it and shook his head quickly for a few moments. "That's disgusting." He confirmed, laughter ensued around the room and Carl decided to stick with just drinking water.
