"Daryl!", Rick shouted. Daryl turned around as Rick was toppled by a walker. "Help!" , Daryl came running, grabbing his knife from him belt and jamming it into the skull of the walker. He threw the walker off Rick and grabbed his hand to pull him up. "Thanks man.", Rick smiled gently and pulled himself up. They walked back to the cell block; exhausted and low on ammo. They held each other up, as they limped back to the cell. Carl unlocked the cell door to let his dad and Daryl inside.
"You guys alright?", Carl asked delicately. The both of them panted and sighed "Yeah, we're alright." Daryl limped back into his cell to lay down and Rick slumped himself against the wall. Daryl took his boots off, laid on his bed, and put his arms behind his head. "Shit…", he sighed. Rick came limping into his cell and leaned against the wall. "Thanks for saving me back there", Rick smiled and stared at Daryl gently. "We're a group, it's what we do. I don't know what'd I do without ya', brotha'." Daryl pulled himself up and sat on the side of his bed. Rick standing there and smiling at Daryl. "C'mere.", Daryl said gently with a smile. Rick smiled back, and walked towards Daryl. Daryl smiled, as he gently pulled Rick down on top of as he gently laid a kiss on Rick's cheek.
Rick blushed slightly, and rolled onto the other side of the bed. Daryl put his arm under Rick and pulled him closely and kissed his forehead. Rick smiled and closed his eyes, "Why are you so good to me?", he opened his eyes, turned his head towards Daryl and smiled. Daryl smirked and closes his eyes. He yawns and opens his eyes again. "You're an excellent leader. You've kept us alive as best as you could. You've protected your boy and…", he trailed off. Stopping in midsentence and pulled his arm out from under Rick. Rick looked at Daryl in a state of confusion; then realized what he was going to say. He sighed sadly and buried his head in between Daryl's side and armpit.
"I love you.", Daryl said sweetly as he pulled Rick closer. "I always have. As long as we're safe and together, nothing else matters." Rick smiled and laid his hand on Daryl's stomach and rubbed gently. "I love you too, Daryl." They closed their eyes, and drifted off to sleep. Rick soon woke up and saw Daryl's mouth open and snoring semi loudly. Rick giggled and kissed Daryl's lips gently. "I'll always protect and love you, Dixon."
Oh god, this was so bad. I'm sorry guys.
