Chapter 29: Trouble in Cali

Disclaimer: Nope don't own anything

"Fuck!" Rick said as he pounded his fists on the Tucson's steering wheel. They were so close, he could see San Francisco bay from the high way … & they had hit a huge traffic snarl that left both sides of the highway completely blocked.

"Is there any way around it?" Rick said as Charlotte laid the map over the hood of the Tucson. "Uh … I might be able to help, I am from this area, remember?" Andrea said, Rick remembered her sister mentioning they were on a cross country road trip when this all went down.

"I know a shortcut, but it'll take us through the city & I don't know if that's any better. The only other option is to backtrack & take the exit onto 5, it'll add about a day though." "Then that's what we'll do." Rick replied.

This highway was passable but not without its snarls & they slowed them down, soon they were losing daylight & they would have to stop soon. "What about this place?" Charlotte's voice crackled over the radio.

It was a public storage facility, not much in the way of shelter, but they had the RV & the fence around it was secure. It was times like this Charlotte thanked her tendency to hang on to seemingly pointless things.

For some reason, when they were forced to abandon the prison, she had a compulsion to hoard the chain & lock they had used to secure the main gate… & she was glad she did as she wrapped the chain around the gate to the facility & secured it.

It was secured all the way around with a ten foot high iron bar fence with only one way in or out … their kind of place. But just to be safe, Charlotte volunteered to walk the perimeter.

She walked slowly, remaining vigilant, Shadow at her side. The damn dog had really taken a liking to her for some reason, maybe he could tell that she was a dog person.

After taking down a couple of walkers that most likely had wondered into the compound, & with all the storage units closed & secured, she deemed the place safe. "All Clear, law man. I'm gonna poke around & see what useful things I can find." She said. "ten-four, just watch your back." Rick replied.

With little effort, she pried open the first unit she came to &, flashlight in hand, began poking around for anything that might be of use, Shadow stood guard outside as usual. Daryl also took this opportunity to detach himself from the group also when he spotted her go off on her own.

He was so full of sexual tension that he felt like murdering someone. They hadn't had any alone time since their reunion night & he wanted her so badly… he just couldn't take it anymore.

In the last row of units he spotted one that was opened, he was willing to bed his crossbow that she was in there, but he readied his weapon just in case. From the corner of her eye, Charlotte caught Shadow's body language change, but his wagging tail told her it was someone from their group.

Her heart summer salted when Daryl stepped in. "What are you doing?" He asked expressionlessly, his bright blue eyes shining in the dim light. Charlotte chrugged.

"I was searching these units for useful shit & got sidetracked by all the cool stuff." She said as she turned around & found him to have trans versed the short distance between them. he was so close she could feel his hot breath on her face.

He threw his crossbow down next to them & gripped her by the shoulders as she grabbed his shirt & flat ripped it off him, his eyes darkened & his breathing quickened as she removed her shirt, exposing her bare breasts.

He undid her pants as she undid his, they locked lips as her hands roved up & down his naked body, making him crazy with desire. He lost what little control he had been maintaining, he propped her up onto an antique dining room table & plunged into her.

Charlotte tried to be quiet but it became nearly impossible as waves of ecstasy & release pounded her body. "Oh, god!" she said over & over as they came as one. Daryl exhaled the breath he had been holding as they collapsed into one another.

They remained like that for what seemed like forever before they finally withdrew & redressed. "Here." She said as she tossed him a shirt from her bag. "Sorry about that, guess I got a little carried away." He chuckled as he slipped it on. "Wait til you see your neck."

At first light the next morning they prepared to move out, Charlotte undid the chain & lock from the gate & put it back in the RV storage compartment. "Let's move." Rick's voice crackled over the radio.
