Hey guys! Finally I have posted chapter 9 after months, and I just wanted to apologize for everything! I will try to post chapter 10 soon since I'm almost done with that one too!

Enjoy!

Feeling the warm embrace of someone else wasn't very familiar to Daryl, and yet now, he could feel someone at his side. He felt soft hands roaming underneath his shirt. The sensational touches sent goosebumps throughout his body.

"Daryl." A familiar voice whispered in his ear.

He knows this voice.

The hands continued to roam, then eventually went off below his waist. He gasped at the gentle strokes placed on his inner thighs, causing his pants to tighten. The familiar, yet unrecognizable female climbed ontop of him. Her long curly locks fell off her shoulder and around Daryl's face, he looked up and saw nothing more than two emerald eyes staring back at him. She leaned down to whisper in his ear again.

"Are you nervous?" He now heard the accent in the voice. The suprising sweet scent of honey floated to his nose. Even though he had no control over anything, he didn't protest as his hands traveled up her thighs and around her butt. She kissed his neck, making him quiver out a small moan. Once again, a soft whisper came to his ear.

"I know I make you nervous." Her caressing arms twindled through his hair. His hands went from her bottom to her upper back, just holding her there. Instead of lust it was now passion. But before the moment could carry any further, a violent nudge to his ribs woke him up.

Still half asleep, he looked hazily around the tent. It was slightly lighted from the outside, which gave a sign that it was probably early in the morning. Daryl looked over to his brother, he was still sleeping. ~Ugly ass, fuckin' kicked me.~ He gently rubbed his ribs, trying to disperse the aching pain that still lingered. Then his eyes dropped to his lap, he cursed under his breath at the tent that was made in his boxers. He rolled over onto his side, still contemplating on going back to sleep, but he remembered the dream he just dreamt of. Thoughts were surfing through his mind about it, he had no doubt that it was Eva who appeared in the surreal scene. He never really thought about the feelings he had for her until now, and he really did care for her.

Daryl shrugged the thought of feelings, Eva, and the dream, hoping to bring the tent that remained in his boxers down. After a while of thinking about hunting, and drinking, his mind drifted off to slumber once again.

The room was dark, and there was no motion in it either that Eva could tell. She knew that she was sitting in a chair, one way to familiar to her liking. The cold leather beneath her skin stuck to her arms and legs, making her position very uncomfortable.

A familiar, yet frightening voice spoke out throughout the darkness.

"Agent Lorington, it's good to have you back." It was her boss, and she now realized that she was sitting in her office back at headquarters. Then the lights came on to show her boss on a big screen right infront of her face. The feeling of being back in her office seemed so real, like life was normal again. She rose her hand to take a look at it, making sure there wasn't something wrong with it. She never had a real reason on why she did it, or why any of this was happening, it didn't look like she had any control over herself at all.

"We have a new target for you in the southern regions of the United States." The monotone voice spoke through the speakers.

"Yes sir." She couldn't control what she was saying, either.

"You will be transported to Atlanta, Georgia. Your subject rests in a hiding place just approximately 10-15 miles away from the city."

"Yes sir." she repeated.

"The target is 5'10, causasian, refers to the name of Daryl Dixon." When the name came through, her heart stopped, yet her mind kept going.

"Yes sir." She repeated once more. Eva had no idea what was going on through her mind, it now seems that she had no control over her body either.

"No more necessary details required until you have reached your location. You know your duty is to find your target, and take him out."

This was like a stab in the heart for her, to hear those words. To make it even worse, she had no control of her actions as she said the dreadful agreeing words again. She wanted to cry, but the tears weren't coming. She wanted to scream, but no sound escaped her mouth. the horrid words kept playing through her head like a traumitized lullaby.

~Find your target, and take him out.~

~Take him out.~

~Kill him.~

Eva woke up gasping, with sweat still forming at her hairline. Bits and pieces of the nightmare still flashed through her head as she tried her best to wake up. Tears welled up and streamed down her soft face as she tried so hard not to imagine herself killing Daryl. She wiped her face and stuffed those horrific thoughts deep down, never to be brought back up. Ever again. She peered around the tent, hearing rustling sounds outside and birds chirping. ~I think it's about time that I got up.~ She stretched out her arms, looking over by the opening of the tent and spotted her original outfit she came here with, laying neatly folded.

She dressed herself, trench coat and all, and stepped outside. Once again, frowning to the thought of sleeping in late when she spotted lots of people out and about the camp. She sighed, knowing that even though she slept in later than most, again, it wasn't a good night's sleep at all.

Starting off her morning, she managed to get a chore out of Dale, which was cleaning up the interior of the RV.

"Everything's gone unorganized." Eva requoted his voice inside her head as she went through the vehicle picking up useless pieces of paper and trash. She worked her way from front to back, cleaning almost every surface inside the RV. After about fifteen minutes or so of rearranging several things in the cabinets towards the back, she came across a small shelf full of books. They were stashed behind a few papers, and were covered in dust. Lying there, were a few old books that she recognized. Her heart perked up when her eyes fell on the title of 'Pride and Prejudice'.

She forgot all about cleaning the RV. Pulling out the dust covered novel, her eyes grew bright as memories of peaceful day offs filled her mind. She then walked to the door of the vehicle to peer out and call Dale over as he was still working with Jim.

"So how's the cleaning going Eva?" He smiled at her. Eva lifted her right arm to show the book in her hand.

"I didn't know that you read love novels, Dale" She chuckled slightly, then he chuckled as well.

"Ahh, well, those were my wife's. She'd always loved reading those books everywhere we went, I have no idea what she got out of those books though." His face turned slighty, a little sad, remembering the past of his beloved. Eva used her free arm to give a warmingly pat on Dale's back to reasure him that everything is okay.

"Well, if it's not much of a bother, do you mind if I put it to good use?" She smiled at him, which made him smile back.

"Of course you can. Just make sure you put it back when you're finished."

"Oh I will, and thankyou." She smiled once again before walking off to her tent.

~I guess reading a few chapters wouldn't hurt, at least it would kill off some time.~ She thought to herself as she stepped into her tent. She took of her shoes and trench coat, getting comfortable, knowing she will be reading for a while.

After a few chapters into the book, Eva couldn't stop smiling as she knew what was going to happen next. It was her favorite book afterall, and she seemed all the more pleased when she knew each event after another. Then suddenly a familiar voice came through the closed entrance of her tent.

"Hey Eva, I just finished my chores and I was wondering if you could take me down to the lake?" It was Carl, his disturbance didn't seem to bother Eva, as she cared for the kid.

"My mom said I can't go unless an adult comes down with me, and all the others are busy, so can you?" There was lingering in his voice, she could tell that he really wanted to go.

She smiled, then replied, "Sure, why not. Just give me a few minutes to get dressed."

"Okay! Let me go get the other kids!" Carl said with joy, and she could hear him take off running outside. She then half sighed half laughed at herself as she was putting on her boots.

~Can't believe I'm going to be babysitting a few ten-year-olds~ She kept laughing. ~But I guess going down to the lake wouldn't be so bad in this heat.~

Taking all the kids down to the lake seemed like a field trip, and she was the teacher. Carl was practically dragging her down as he was holding her hand the whole entire walk. When the crystal clear blue water came into view, all the kids took off screaming and laughing, and Eva was left there with only a few yards away from the edge of the lake. She stood there for a moment, watching the kids, then her eyes sort of just stared off into space as she started thinking about Dayrl once again. Her straight face grew into a frown, remembering all that's happened in the past few days with him. ~He's so damn stubborn~ The thoughts of him kept lingering in her mind, but were quickly wiped away when refreshing cold water splashed at her legs.

"Come play with us Eva!" Carl had a wide smile on his face. She pondered for a moment and thought 'What the hell, it should be fun'

She smiled back at him and began taking off her coat and shoes and walking into the lake.

After maybe an hour or two of playing games, secretly teaching them a bit of self-defense, and just swimming around with all the kids, Eva was a bit worn out. All the kids were as well, so all of them got out and dried off for the upcoming dinner.
