I awoke to another alarm going off but I wasn't at the farm house anymore. "What's going on?" Daryl stopped the car and looked back at me grinning. "They found a cure and the world is now walker free." "How is that possible?" "They tested a shot on a survivor who volunteered ta die and see if he would change afterwards but he didn't now they are givin out shots at the hospitals and the leftover military wiped out the whole population of walkers." I didn't know how to respond to this. I was too happy to think of something to say. "So where are we going?" "Ta find a safe house ta live in." "What about the others?" "They split up and went ta live their lives again." I got up and climbed up to the passenger's seat. "I want ta keep ya safe so I'm gonna take care of ya." After hearing that I regret calling him an ass. "So you want to be with me?" He looked at me and started to drive again. "Yea and its weird since I try not ta get close ta people but I cant seem ta stay away from ya." I felt tears come up again but I fought them. "I didn't go back in the room just to get my crossbow. I went back to see if you were ok cause I could tell that I hurt ya and the story ya told me was just-." I stopped him. "Please don't talk about it." He parked in front of a beautiful three story house. He opened my door for me and held out his hand. "Its safe I promise." I took his hand and we walked towards the house. "I raided a Wal mart for food and supplies so we don't have ta hunt deer anymore." I studied him for a moment. "You look tired." I could tell by the darkness under his eyes that he hasn't slept very well. "I just wanted ta make sure ya were safe before I went to tend ta myself." "I'm fine but you need rest!" He looked like he was about to collapse at any moment so I grabbed his hand and went to find a bedroom. "I'll be fine you don't have ta worry bout me." He let go of my hand and laid down on his back. "But its cute that ya care." I could tell he wasn't use to it and it would take him awhile to understand that I'm going to protect him too. He started to doze off so I crawled up next to him and he was soon snoring in my ear. I got up slowly without waking him and went to explore the house. It was nice but I still carried my knife around just in case. Daryl wasn't kidding when he said he raided a Wal mart. There was a ton of food and clothes and even the water and electricity was working again. I was in desperate need of a shower. I grabbed some clothes and went back into the room Daryl was in. The hot water felt great and since there was no worries about bills to pay I stayed in there for a while. When I finally did get out I changed and went back to lay down next to Daryl. He looked so peaceful and sweet when he slept and I knew his touch attitude wasn't around. I moved to lay on his chest and drifted off but I could feel his arms wrap around me and he said something but I didn't hear it before I fell asleep.
