Beth POV:

I am sat moving my food around my plate aimlessly while blatantly staring at Merle and Karen sat at a table the opposite side of the other side of the room.

We, me and Merle, had been together for a few months, if not longer. Rick had found out a month after it start after walking in to Merles cell to find us both half dressed, he had decided for us that the original prison group deserved to know about us, not wanting to lie to anyone, especially daddy. No one was happy about it but no one protested, and now I think a few if not most seemed to accept it. The Woodbury group had no idea, and the plan, for the time being anyways, was to keep it that way. No one was pushing for more people to know. I would rather they didn't as they never kept an option to theirselves but recently it feels it may be easier to let them know just to be close to Merle. The only time he went near me recently was on a night when we where both back in the cell we now shared. Even over dinner he sat as far away from me as possible with his brother and Carol, and for the past couple of nights Karen. I had nothing against Karen, but that was before she started showing interest in Merle. For the past few nights she would get her food then slide on the bench next to Merle making sure to get as close as possible before blatantly flirting with him, and he did nothing to stop it, he even flirted back once or twice. I had done my best to be seem unaffected by it, either way Karen wasn't to know. Last night I had brought it up to Merle.

'It ain't like I'm fuckin 'er, you're tha one who wanted to keep it from 'em' he replied. But tonight I had had it, had enough of seeing them all cosy, flirting and having their hands all over each other.

'Beth, your foods getting cold' Maggie informed me giving me a nudge. Karen was starting to infuriate me, fluttering her eyelashes, twisting her hair, whispering in his ear, reaching under the table a few times too. It makes me so mad, but it was my decision, like Merle had said. No it wasn't, I had never protested, if anything he had been the one not wanting it to come out. Was he actually cheating on me with Karen? Would he do that? No, he was a good man, underneath it all, he wouldn't. I couldn't stand it, either way I would never hang off another mans arm while with Merle, scrap that, ever unless it was Merles arm. Or would I...

'Sorry. I was away in my own world' I smiled to myself, I knew I would have to tell the Woodbury group tonight, but I had some payback to deal out first.

'You really love him don't cha?' Maggie whispered realizing where I had been staring.

'Yep I do' I answered between eating. 'More than anything'

'Well you know you have to tell the other group or something is going to happen there'

'I know and I am, I just have to do something first' I looked up from my food to Maggie, then over to Rick who was saying good night to Carl and Judith before Carol took them both off to bed with the other kids.

'Oh no, your not' Maggie had been able to read me easily and knew what I planned to do, I wasn't happy about it, I knew it would involve using Rick but I need to prove Merle that I am not going to just keep his bed warm.

'Maggie I know what I am doing, if he can't keep his hands to himself why should I' I replied finishing off my dinner then proceeding to clean everyone's dishes, making sure to ignore Merle completely while picking his and Karen's up.

Just as I finished clearing up as daddy informed the group he was going to his cell If anyone needed him. That was all I was waiting for, Now my plan can take action. It could go one of 2 ways hopefully it would be the positive of the 2 and with that positive thought in my head I started walking towards Rick, concentrating on Rick and Rick alone knowing if I looked at anyone else in the room specifically Maggie or Merle I would lose any confidence I had mustered.

Rick was now sat alone staring off into the distance. Perfect, I made sure to move my hips enough while walking to catch a few eyes mainly Merle hoping it would scream to him that I meant business.

'Rick?' I said softly moving on to the bench he was sat on, placing a kiss on his cheek when I got close enough.

'Hi' he replied, his voice seemed rough, more rough than normal, I hadn't spoke to him in a while, I guess I wasn't use to it 'what was that for?'

'I have just missed you, thas all, we haven't spoke much since, ya know' I replied referring to the day he found me and Merle.

'Ya? I've missed ya to' he smiled sadly. 'I've had stuff ta do, ya know. Thangs,'

'Ya always have thangs to do, Rick' I giggled.

'Well someone has to keep this place in order'

'You should take sometime off for yourself some time Rick, we are finally safe, I, we are all so grateful for the life we now get to lead, finally safe after what seems to have been so long fearing for our life everyday, you should give yourself sometime off' I said drifting off into a whisper at the end, it was true, I owe him my life if not more, I now wish I had decided on another member of the group, Rick is going to think all of this is a lie later. I instinctively moved me free hand to his leg giving it a squeeze.

'Thanks, I will keep that in mind' Rick drifted of changing the subject quickly 'Everything is ok with you and Merle isn't it, he hasn't hurt you had he because of he has'

'Rick, it is fine' I interrupted.

'No it is not Beth, if you are doing this to get back at him please let me know and I will gladly play along, he deserves to learn a lesson, I have seen him with Karen the past few nights, if you was mine I' he stopped, if I was his? I had heard the Woodbury women whispering about him liking me but, did he? 'But please don't make me think you are interested in me' it then hit me they was not spreading rumours he actually did.

'Oh Rick I am sorry, I didn't mean to lead you on I was going to leave it there, you are an amazing man and I meant the things I said, I will be forever grateful for this place, your leadership and friendship' I whisper begging for forgiveness 'and truthfully I do love you, but I know I love Merle in a different way, a way where it is not just love ya know?' Not really knowing where that had come from I paused, I have always thought he was an attractive man from the first day he stepped on the farm and I guess as I had grown closer to him, taking babysitting duties most days with Judith and I have somehow developed feelings for him, no way could they rival what I felt for Merle but they where there. I continued 'I need to teach him a lesson before I tell the Woodbury group, I am sorry for planning on your emotions like that' I whispered looking at the table not wanting to see any possible hurt in his eyes.

'It is fine, hey look at me.' He lifted my chin up so I was staring in to his georgeous blue eyes. 'I told you I would help didn't I? But if he ever hurts you please tell me and don't ever try that again unless you truly mean it ok?' I nodded feelin embarrassed for what I had done. 'Also just for the record I am going to have you one day' he finished at winked, it took me by surprise all I could do was giggle. 'Now he has been looking over at you since before you sat down, he is also starting to ignore Karen so what I want you to do is laugh like I have said the funniest thing you have ever heard, keep your hand exactly where it is on my leg and I am going to put my arm around you and pull you closer so I can wispering in you ear, ok? go' I heard every word and went to work, I laughted as much and as loud a I could, maybe too loud. My grip on Ricks leg got harder as he pulled me into his side, arm over my shoulder and my head resting right on his shoulder just close enough for him to place a kiss on her forehead, which he did.

'How's it lookin?' I asked after my laughter had died down.

'We have got him, his attention is all on you darlin', now I am going to kiss you ok? I probably won't get that far but'

'He will hurt you Rick I can't let you do that' I interrupted.

'I know he will Beth, I know Merle Dixon but I need to teach him a lesson too because next time he puts a foot wrong I will be there, and you will be mine' he whispered looking me in eyes, I could tell he meant it, they where full of love which I didn't deserve. Without saying anything else he tilted my chin up to a side and pushed his lips on mine, soft at first, just so his beard grazed across my skin, then a bit harder like someone had just told him he was aloud to enjoy it. It was nothin like a kiss with Merle, when they kissed it was fueled with passion, it has hands all over and tongues and love, this was sweet, and gentle something I have only ever experience with Jimmy.

Rick finally pulled away, it took me a few seconds to realise what had just happened and that everyone was staring at us including Merle who was standing behind us obviously mad.

'Beth' Merle snirled trying to keep calm but failing. 'We have watch'

'No we don't' I replied, we really didn't, I wasn't aloud on watch.

'Yes we do' he said with his authority voice, which meant something was going to go down.

'Oh ok' I muttered standing up giving Rick a apologetic look, not wanting Merle to kick off here. I had reached the door before I heard him shout.

'Oh and officer friendly' I turned to see what was happening as Merle took a step toward Rick as he stood up. Merle punched him in the face with such a force Rick fell back to where he had just been siting. 'Let that be a lesson to everyone, you lay a finger on her, you even look at my girl, and you will be gettin the same treatment, but I won't hold back' with that Merle turned away, grabbing my arm with his good hand, and basically dragging me to the watch tower. Rick gave me one last sad smile as I was dragged out the door.

'Merle slow down' I whimpered, he was basically running, dragging me along, and I couldn't keep up.

'Fine' Merle muttered, without warning picking me up onto his back like I was nothing.

'What are you doing? Put me down right now Merle!'

'Ah no, no can do darlin' he chuckled sarcastically and carried on towards the watch tower and up the stairs.

When we reached the top we found Tyreese and Sasha on watch who both turned to the door we, well Merle had just burst through,they both looked confused.

'We're relieving you for the night, go on' Merle growled, it was obvious he was going to put up a fight if not. Tyreese being smart and not wanting to argue got up and pulled Sasha along with him out of the door giving me a concerned look on his way out, I just smiled and nodded to show it was fine.

Once we heard the ground door slam close I was finally released from Merles hold, whilst he locked the door to the top of the tower. Unsure of what to do I sat on a desk just above one of the make shift beds and watched him carefully waiting for him to make his move.

He turned and sauntered towards me, when he was stood right in front of me he moved my legs to either side of his so he could stand right I front of me. He stood there for what seemed like forever staring down at me as I diverted my eyes in other directions to avoid his gaze. Then he finally spoke.

'Darlin' you goin to tell ol' Merle what that was all about?' I kept staring out of the window. 'Darlin look at me. Do ya know what you where doing?' I still refused to look at him so he put his hand under my chin and made me look up at him. 'What was you tryin to do back in there?' I still did not reply to which he started to get angry and rose his voice. 'Ya got a thing for officer friendly? Ya rather be with officer friendly? Am I not good enough for ya?'

'No! I don't want to be with him' I finally bit back, did he really not see what this is about? 'Wouldn't you rather I be Karen?'

'Thas stupid, its not the same thing and ya know it' he bit back.

'How's it not the same thing' I screamed at him.

He looked up at the ceiling like he was searching for something.

'Darlin' you are mine, have ya got that, mine.' He leant down and kissed me forcefully while slipping his hand down my waist before reaching the waistband of my jeans and unfastening them. I tried pulling away to ask what he was doing we was talking, well shouting this out but he kept on kissing me with his stump behind my head keeping me close, I decided after struggling for a bit to let this was happen, we would talk after he had blown off some steam.

He pulled me up off the desk so he could pull my jeans and panties off. Once I had sat back down his hand went down to my lower regions and suddenly he pushed 3 fingers in me.

'Oh soo wet already' Merle commented breaking the kiss now penetrating me with his finger. 'Is this all for ol' Merle?' He purred in my ear, I was starting to feel weak as he pumped faster and added a forth finger.

'Y-y-yes' I managed to reply.

'I don't think I heard ya sugartits' he added as he kept going faster using his thumb to rub my clit. 'Who is it that makes you feel like this?'

'You, you do Merle' I forced out as I started to shake in pleasure.

'Thas right Darlin'' I was on the edge of cumming 'I'm the only one who can make you feel like this, Not officer friendly. Not nobody. Me! got that?' He took his hand away licking his fingers. I moaned at the loss of fingers.

'Merle, please' I whimpered. 'I need to cum'

'Nah ya don't Darlin'' he picked me up moving me from the desk to one of the make shift beds, laying me down then laying beside me 'You don't get to cum tonight, not until I aloud you too' he pulled me into another forceful kiss, he shrugged his wife beater off, then his vest giving me enough to time to take my own top off.

He then stopped and got up to take his pants like every day he was commando. He stood at the end of the bed in all of his glory, I roamed my eyes over him before he got back on to the bed, gave himself a few strokes and prepared himself before entering me with force. He filled me up, hitting just the right spot but not moving. He had his mouth on my neck suck at the same spot before breaking away and whispering on my ear.

'Who do ya want?' He finally pulled out slowly, not all the way.

'You Merle' I answer as he pushed back in hard.

'And do ya want officer friendlys dick?' He pulled out a bit faster

'No, never' I panted out as he slammed back in again. He started picking up the pace a bit, however still going too slow for my liking.

'I'm the only one who gets to touch ya, kiss ya, fuck ya, ya hear? You. are. mine.' He growled.

'Yes. yours, I am yours, always' I screamed between pants. 'I need to be your only' I was so close 'I need to cum'

'Ya ma only, lil angel, cum with me' he screamed as we both came.

We lied there, Merle on his back looking up at the ceiling while I am curled up into his his side using his torso as a pillow with his good arm around me, both still naked.

'I love you' I muttered tracing my finger over his stomach, all of our problems had some how disappeared, I still felt I needed to explain myself, I am the one who let Rick kiss me. 'You know I would never leave you for Rick right? I was just soo, soo jealous. She was all over you and you saw no problem with it. I want to be the one you only have eyes for, the one who you fumble around with under the table'

'Fumble around with hmm... May have to try that one time Darlin' sure that would be hot as hell, you wriggling around as I finger' I slap him in the chest looking up, pouting at him 'ah alright Darlin' I love ya, ya are the only woman I will ever want. Next time ya get jealous enough ya feel ya have to go to officer friendly, don't.'

'I will try' I chuckled looking up at him through my eyelashes. 'But that beard, bet that would do a hell lotta thangs to me' I trailed my hand to the waistband of his pants, knowing it would get him riled up.

'Ya wanna beard? Hell I'll grow a beard' he threw his arms up then realising what I was doing. 'Oh ya like it rough do ya? Ya have no idea how rough Ol' Merle can be Sugartits'

I sat up swinging my leg over him to sit up on his waist.

'Then show me big man'

Please let me know what you thought, I know there is a lot of room for improvement so if anyone wants to give me a few tips of where I could be going better please do.
