Daryl pulled up outside Carol's place, Merle parked behind him. He was taking the other two boys over to Andrea's and Daryl and Carol were taking Mitch to see the counselor. They decided to travel together to show a united front even though there was no hiding the fact that their whole situation was fucked up. They walked up the path and could hear Carol growling at someone, the windows were open, Daryl looked at his watch they were quite a bit early but they knocked on the door anyway. Carol opened it up looking him up and down and sighed.

'Come in, its all turning to shit,' She opened the door wide, both Merle and Daryl gagged as they stepped inside. 'That gentlemen is the smell of round two of a farting contest between Mitch and Nathan, welcome to teenage boys,'

Daryl stood by the door and they both wanted to leave, Michonne walked out of her bedroom and to the back door to open it and let a bit of a cross breeze go through. Merle let out a low cough so she would notice him, she was heading back out to work. She was dressed in her tight jeans and wide belt. Merle let out a low whistle as she turned and he got a view of her arse in those jeans.

'Hey sugar,' Merle said when he saw her, she just gave him a wave and repeated the opening and shutting door action to create a draft. 'You boys ready to go?'

Daniel was ready and Nathan was rolling around the floor with Mitch farting on him. Daryl didn't know what was worse the smell of the farts or the smell coming from Mitch, it smelt like he hadn't taken a shower in months, Nathan rolled off and grabbed his bag following Merle.

'I'll see you guys soon, be good,' Daryl told them. He shut the door and walked over to Mitch who was still lying on the floor, 'Go take a quick shower,'

'No,'

'Come on, we not taking you smelling like B.O, go take a shower,'

'Make me,'

Carol stood back waiting to see what was going to happen, she'd been trying to get him into the shower since he got home from school. She though he purposely didn't wear deodorant today because he would smell, Daniel also told her he run around the track a few times for P.E and didn't take a shower like the others did last period, he also been sweating because he jogged most of the way home. Daniel told her it was because he didn't want to go. Nathan told her it was because he was scared she was going to send him away. Carol told him to take a shower and even told him she would pay him $5 to go take a shower.

'We going to really do this?' Daryl asked him.

'Yip!' Mitch was waiting to see what he would do, Daryl was freshly showered and Carol could tell he wanted her to find him somewhat attractive because he put nice smelling aftershave on. She could also tell by the way his jeans fitted as he lifted his arms that he had no underwear on. She caught a glimpse of his stomach and could see the crack of his arse and he bent down to talk quietly with Mitch.

'We can do this the easy way or the hard way, the easy way is you go take a shower because ya Ma told you too and you respect her enough not to leave the house smelling like a pig farm or B I'm gonna run you a bath and bath you like a baby ... your choice,'

'You wouldn't dare,'

'Wanna try me?'

Mitch looked at him wondering if he would, 'I'm gonna count backwards from 5 then you are going to move, and cos you're being a little punk about it I'm gonna stand in there and check you're actually in the shower, 5...4...3...' Mitch flipped over and took off to the bathroom, Daryl was on his heels and put his foot in the door.

'Let me shut the door you pervert,' Mitch called out.

'When your in the shower,' Daryl said calmly, 'Now you have 10 minutes until your butt needs to be in the truck,'

'I'm not going,' come the voice from inside the shower.

'We are all going,' Carol called out, 'We need to go,'

'Why? You hate him, and he...' Mitch threw something inside the shower, Daryl stepped into the bathroom and shut the door.

'You need to calm the fuck down,' he said to the shower curtain, 'Get out get dressed and we go because its what your Mama wants, its what I want and whether you know it or not its what you need,'

'Fuck you,' a bottle of shampoo come flying past his head, Daryl backed out slowly, he looked at Carol.

'You look pretty,' he told her, she looked at him and shook her head.

'We are dealing with all this and your stopping to tell me I look good,'

'Well you do,'

'Thanks, Mitch is ... he's scared,' Carol said she walked into the boys bedroom he'd done a number in there there was stuff everywhere. Carol hunted around for a pair of jean's, she found underwear and a tee shirt. She grabbed him a jacket and Daryl found shoes. He was shocked at the mess, he'd tipped the beds and dressers over in a rage. He was really worried about Carol being there with him in a rage.

'If he went for you...' Daryl started.

'He won't, he's a frighten little boy, who doesn't know how to deal with his feelings, he's not Daniel, he's not Nathan, he's Mitch the one who was most like you according to Nathan and Daniel said that my Dad used to hurt him, I didn't know, I wish they told me sooner,'

Two hours later the three of them sat in silence at a road side cafe eating burgers, and drinking their drinks not looking at each other. No one knew what to say to each other. Daryl cleared his throat to let them know he was about to speak. It had been an in-depth session with Mitch let loose with a colorful range of insults directed towards Daryl. Carol was pleased he just sat there and didn't say anything. He didn't really know how it was all supposed to work but he figured the man would tell him what he should say or let him know when he should talk. Basically Mitch was beside himself with worry that he was going to be rejected by both Carol and Daryl. He'd lived in fear that he was constantly told he was just like his father that he was bad really bad and the other two were good and he was a bad egg. It got so bad that his granddad couldn't tell the difference between Nathan and Mitch at one stage. Nathan took it for him more than once.

Daryl hadn't known what to do but he didn't want to sit there saying nothing. He reached out and hugged him, held him, rocked him. He didn't know he knew how to do that but it seemed to be the right thing to do. Mitch had been attacking Daryl to push him into doing something so Mitch could prove everyone right that Daryl was horrible and just as bad as Carol's dad. Things had just been bubbling over control.

'So this is what I'm going to do,' Daryl looked at Mitch, 'You wanna fight me? You learn to fight properly, none of this street fighting shit, its gonna end badly, I'm gonna teach you how to fight like a man alright, in a ring... ya Uncle Merle can help, think you like that?'

'He's just 15,' Carol interjected.

'A 15 year old with a whole lot of attitude, he needs an outlet for his rage like the doctor guy shrink said, lets do it, give him a outlet where its controlled and I don't end up with another black eye. You want to do that?'

'Learn to box? Like with gloves?' Mitch looked somewhat interested. Excited even. 'Can Nathan come?'

'If he wants too, and Daniel,' Daryl said.

'Daniel doesn't like to fight, he gets upset about it,' Mitch admitted, 'He hates it when we do that stuff,'

'Well ask him it might be different because its proper not just trying to kill me,'

They sat eating their food quietly, Daryl drove Carol home told Mitch to stay in the car, the boys were going with him for two night. He walked her to the front door.

'You don't really need to walk me,' Carol told him.

'I know but if I didn't I couldn't try and do this,' before she could stop him he hooked his hand on the front of her pants and pulled her to him, dipped his head and planted a quick kiss on her lips. Two hands come up to push him away as he deepened the kiss the hands pulled his shirt to her closer. A hand drifted over her arse. She let out a moan and opened her mouth to let his tongue have access. His mouth moved down her neck and he let him. The car in the drive beeped and they heard Mitch calling out that they were being gross.

'Night then,' Daryl said. He looked at her like she was lunch and he was hungry.

'Yeah ok, night, see you Sunday,' Carol watched him strut down the drive, she could only assume he didn't know about her date with Connor yet, and she couldn't believe her body betrayed her like that and let him kiss her.
