So I decided to try a new story. This one is for The Walking Dead obviously. Haven't updated any of my stories in forever but I needed a new muse and I found it! So hope you enjoy, no rude comments please. I know I am a bit rusty.
I first saw him when I was walking home from work one night. He'd stopped to let me cross the road to my apartment then pulled into the parking lot. Thinking he was there for the girl who lives above me I shrugged it off.
Opening the outside door I was hit with a wave of heat. It felt good against my cold face. Opening the door to my apartment I was met with the sounds of fucking coming from my friends' room. Sighing I turned the radio up and moved on into the kitchen to grab myself a Smirnoff. Kicking the door shut I went back to the living room and opened my laptop. A knock on the door jumped me.
I really hated moving after work so with much reluctance I got up and answered the door. He stood in the door way staring at me.
"Yes?" I asked. He raised an eye brow at me.
"I'm here fer Merle." I nodded.
"Liz's flavor of the week you mean?" He smirked.
"Yeah." I motioned for him to come inside.
"Drink?" I asked him. He nodded so I went to retrieve one for him. I handed him the beer and sat on the couch.
"Might as well take a seat it might be awhile." I grabbed the remote and started flipping through the channels.
"You must be the brother who works at the garage?" he nodded. I smiled.
"I can tell." I saw him smirk. About twenty minutes later Liz and Merle made their entrance.
"Well helloooo lil brother!" Merle said. I winced and tried my best to shrink away from the sound of his voice and curl into a little ball. Unpleasantries were tossed between the brothers and Liz before she turned her attention to me.
"You going hunting with your dad tomorrow Sage?" I nodded
"yeah probably out back of their house." I replied.
"You hunt?" both Dixons eyed me. I nodded.
"Not often, once or twice a year, sometimes I get something most times I don't. I work most of the time so yeah don't really get much free time. I finished my beer and got another one.
"So sugar tits, I'll pick you up from work?" Liz nodded at Merle and I rolled my eyes.
"Hey Daryl, why don't you and Sage come hang out with us tomorrow?" I swear I could have hit her just then.
"Yeah baby bro, stead o bein holed up in that trailer o yer's?" and much to my surprise Daryl looked at me and asked
"Can I pick you up tomorrow?" I nodded dumbly and began fiddling with my beer bottle.
"You have to work Sage? Liz asked. I shook my head no.
"Sweet!"
"Good let's go Darylina." Merle said leaving a swift kiss on Liz's lips
*TIME SKIP~TIME SKIP~TIME SKIP~TIME SKIP*
That was two years ago. Daryl and I became close, started dating, and eventually became engaged. We were supposed to be married yesterday if I had managed to keep track of the days right. However the dead started walking and somehow me and him got separated.
Where am I now? I'm on the edge of a quarry fighting with myself on whether I want to make myself known. I watch the man and a boy playing in the water and I can't help but smile. I touch the small bump forming in my belly. They might be safe, and safe is what I need right now.
"Oh, please please please let me be making the right choice." I whispered. I stood up and grabbed my backpack. I made a lot of noise so when the man saw me he wouldn't shoot me first. When he saw me he started yelling.
"Hey, hey hey stop right there." He pulled a gun, instantly my hands were in the air. Showing I had no weapon but the bow on my back.
"Please help, I have no food and I'm alone. I need help, I lost my fiancée and I'm," I never got to finish because I was knocked unconscious.
Sometime later I was coming too and could hear faint voices.
"No why did you go and do that Ed?" I furrowed my eyebrows. Where was I? Then I remembered I had found a campsite.
"Merle knows her, I know he does. Did you see the way he looked at you?" I heard someone scoff.
"he's jealous." Merle was here? Did that mean Daryl?" I tried sitting up and opening my eyes. Bringing a hand to my head I looked up into the face of the man I saw with the boy.
"What's your name?" He asked. I winced. My head hurt so bad. In a panic I reached for my belly finding the bump still there is sighed.
"Your name?" I looked at him.
"Sage." He glanced at Ed.
"Why were you alone?" I bit my lip, tears coming to my eyes.
"I was separated from my fiancée. I've been running through the woods fighting off those things, I haven't eaten in four days." I paused. "I can't be alone anymore, I'm pregnant. I need to find my fiancée."
"You will be safe here, we will get you some food as soon as we can." I nodded.
"You can come outside as soon as your ready." Again I nodded. He left me alone then. Was I correct in hearing that Merle was here? Maybe Liz and Daryl were here too. I stood, Maybe I can see Daryl again.
I exited the RV and stood by the door way looking around the camp, there were different tents, lots of people around a campfire, all of whom turned to look at me. Feeling embarrassed I glanced at the ground.
"We have a plate set for you. If your hungry." I looked at the short haired woman and gave her a small smile of thanks as I took the plate. I looked down to see the familiar form of a squirrel. I couldn't help the smile, it's what Daryl told me we would live off if the world ever ended. Somehow I knew he was with these people.
Somehow I knew I'd be seeing him real soon.
So Read and Review. Nothing rude! Comments are welcome!
