In her free time, Beth had tidied her cell slightly. She never let it get messy, but in the rush of protecting Judith, things seemed to get knocked around. She slotted her knife back under her thin mattress. Back when they'd all moved into the prison, she'd started sleeping with it closer to her bed, just in case. It had made her uneasy to know that the previous prisoners were still around.
She was setting the mattress back down when she heard Rick speak. Part of her wasn't expecting him to come back and talk to her. Perhaps he was going to realise it wasn't right for them to be doing something like this. She was growing slightly more confident each time he spoke to her.
Her confidence felt slightly knocked when she saw him holding a cloth to his head.
"Yeah, I'm... Are you okay?" She asked quietly, standing so she could move over to him. Beth brought her hand up to rest over his, careful not to add any more pressure on the damp cloth. "Does it hurt?"
Rick wasn't coming to her cell to talk about his head, yet it still worried her. He was more than capable of taking care of himself and she knew it. It wasn't going to stop her from trying to take care of him. Sometimes he looked like he needed someone to just ask if he was okay. Beth was going to have to be careful not to bombard him with the question.
