Daryl shifted and Carol slapped his thigh making his eyes open. Blinking slowly against the harsh sunlight hitting his face he hissed a breath out and set up straight. His neck hurt from being cocked to the side and back. Why he thought that'd be a good position to sleep in he wasn't sure but he'd went with it anyways.

"Where we going?" Daryl questioned shifting again. Carol adjusted in his lap and he jerked at the contact. Looks like another day of blue balls while being trapped with her mom and his dad. Lovely.

Danielle turned and looked at him, a smile lit her face and he forced one of his own. He wasn't really mad at her anymore. Hell he understood where she was coming from but if the same shit started again he was done. He'd not play nice. Everyone always said he was the sweet one but the truth was he could be a son of a bitch if it suited him. Carol wanted him to be nice so he was.

He grit his teeth when Will ignored him. Asshole. Daryl huffed and threw himself back against the seat dramatically. He heard his dad snort and wanted to slap him in the back of the head. That would do no good because Will would pull over and jerk his door open. He didn't enjoy the thought of getting his ass kicked by his dad right now.

"You hungry?"

Daryl glared at the back of his dad's head. What the fuck kind of question was that? Of course he was.

"Yes."

Will met his eyes in the rearview mirror and winked. "Head hurting yet?"

"Yes."

Will chuckled and Daryl groaned when Will hit the rumble strip on the side of the road. The dull ache in the back of his head roared to life. It only last a minute before Will corrected his driving but it was enough. If he wanted to be a dick then game on.

"Will be nice." Danielle chided.

Carol's breath ghosted over his stomach and his eyes flew down to her. He could see a smile on her lips but her eyes were closed. He did not trust her. Biting the inside of his cheek he looked up when Danielle said his name.

"What?" His voice was passive and unconcerned.

"I asked what you wanted to eat."

Daryl shrugged because there was no way he could concentrate on food when Carol's hand was sliding up to his groin. Nope. Not today, not ever. She was the goddamn devil. His nostrils flared and he knew his face was turning red. Turning his head quickly he looked out the window away from her mom. He was trying to catch her hand without either of their parents noticing what was happening but she was out maneuvering him. Satan was currently groping him and now his blue balls was a full blown erection while her mom smiled at him asking what he'd like to eat.

If this woman even knew she'd jump from the vehicle. That or she would slap him so hard he'd be as stupid as Joe. Because if they were alone he would have already made a meal of Carol. Carol's breath ghosted over his stomach again and he felt her laugh. The bitch was laughing. Of course she was. How did he expect her to remain the sweet girl that he'd met when she hung out with goddamn Merle and Mac? Thing One and Thing Two were fucking disgusting and perverts.

"Do you know what Carol would want?"

Daryl bit back a groan when Carol's grip tightened. If she made him cum in his pants he was going to choke her. There was no goddamn way he was walking around all day with that all over him. No fucking way. Nope.

"Nope." The P popped and he kept his eyes on the passing traffic.

Danielle sighed and he grit his teeth. When he knew that Danielle was safely turned he manhandled Carol off his lap. He knew Will was looking at him but there was no way around it. He could see his face but he couldn't see that Carol managed to get his jeans worked open. His throat had almost constricted so tightly that it actually hurt when he felt her hands on his cock. She thought she was cute but when he got her alone he was going to kill her.

"OH Carol's awake!" Danielle chirped happily.

Daryl made a noise in his throat at her mom. Will was cutting in somewhere and he still had no clue what in the fuck was going on. He couldn't fucking get out of the truck right now! Carol laughed at her mom and he wanted to ring her neck because she didn't even look a bit flustered. Carol looked at him a bright smile on her face and elbowed him.

"I'm starved."

Her eyes danced at him and his promised retribution. Will parked and Danielle and Carol were the first out. Will was slower moving. Daryl started to open his door and Will hit the locks. Daryl looked up at him and Will's eyes met his in the mirror.

"You alright?"

Daryl forced a nod and shrugged. "I'm fine."

"Really because you look you were close to having a stroke a minute ago."

Daryl started trying to fight the lock up on his door and Will grinned at him. Daryl muttered asshole under his breath and grinned in triumph when the door unlocked. Before he could get it unlocked Will flipped the locks again. Danielle and Carol were eyeing them waiting. Daryl huffed and threw his hands up at his dad.

"What the fuck do you want? Get it out of your system."

Will laughed loudly. He stepped out the truck and Daryl all but fell out. He was a graceless heap against the side of the truck and scowled at them all. He used the door as a shield as he adjusted his dick the best he could. Carol was waggling her brows at him and he wanted to rip them off. He shut the door and Carol was there instantly her arm looping with his own. Danielle and Will were walking ahead of them. If anyone looking at them didn't know them they would think they were husband and wife. Maybe that would bother him since he was dating her daughter but honestly he gave no fucks. Jesus he was weird.

"What do you think they are up to?" Carol whispered.

Daryl side eyed her. "Nothing less unsavory than your ass."

"Oh that could be a lot then!" Carol snorted.

Stepping inside they were all lead to a table and Daryl moved quick sliding in next to Will. Carol fought to not smile but she lost. Danielle took the seat next to her and Daryl blew out a breath. He couldn't handle another one of her groping sessions right now.

"What are we doing Will?" Carol smiled at him.

Will turned his eyes off Daryl onto Carol. He studied her for a minute and Carol's smile only brightened. She looked like the picture of innocence. He wanted to wreck her. He licked his lips and forced his eyes off her. If he kept staring it was just going to get awkward.

"Jess politely volunteered me and Daryl to help him today." Will sipped his drink as they were all dropped off.

"So I had to get up because Daryl has work?" Carol scowled.

Daryl snorted and Carol kicked him. He grunted and jerked looking up. Danielle was smiling down at her menu and he flipped Carol off.

"Yes." Will deadpanned. "Danielle said she would watch Ellie. Merle and Mac have work later this evening. Would you rather be left alone at home till around one in the morning? That's if Daryl even came home tonight."

Carol's eyes shot to him and he took a drink of his orange juice. "You weren't coming home?"

Daryl shrugged at her. "I don't always come home when I go to Jess's house, no."

Carol scowled at him and Danielle tapped her menu. "Carol decide what you're going to eat already." She scolded, "Leave him alone."

Daryl grinned triumphantly at her and Carol's eyes widened. Danielle pointed again at her menu and Carol growled while looking through it. Daryl seen something going on out of the corner of his eye between Danielle and Will but refused to look over. Jesus fuck if she was like her daughter he didn't want to think about her hand down his dad's pants groping his dick. He wouldn't be able to eat- only die.

The waitress came around taking their orders. For some reason he noticed Danielle paying more attention to what he ordered. He flushed under her attention. He wasn't use to it. He wasn't use to any woman besides Carol and Annette really. Sure Maggie was around occasionally but she usually paid more attention to Mac than him. That was fine by him and always would be. Beth was around at times but again he didn't really pay attention to her. It was like wise for her and just like with her sister it suited him. He didn't like being the center of attention. Let Merle and Mac have it.

Rubbing at his face he forced his anxiety away. Danielle was going to be around and he had to get use to it. Something told him it wasn't just for Carol either. He wasn't blind or so self involved that he didn't notice the lingering looks between the two supposed adults. He was just curious to see when the dam broke. Oh and when it did he couldn't wait to hound them like he got it. He was going to demand at random that Danielle get on the pill because god forbid she have a kid. Daryl grimaced at the thought of his dad having a kid with his girlfriends mom. He had a weird fucking family but that was even too much for him.

"Shit." He groused.

"What?" Will questioned.

Daryl shivered and shook his head, "Nothing."

Will eyed him but let it go. They got their food pretty quick. Despite the hangover that was eating at his skull his stomach rumbled. If he thought about his table manners it didn't show. Well not on his face at least. He grinned up at Carol's mom taking a big bite of his bacon and raising a brow. He had to give it to her she was trying. She really was because he could see it in her eyes she wanted to jump on to him for not using a fork or napkin. His pants worked just as good as a fucking napkin anyways. Intentionally eating sloppier she sighed and ate deliberately. She made a show of using her fork and knife like it would goad him into doing the same. Wrong.

Carol and Will were watching them with interest. He ignored it too. Fuck them. Assholes left his drunk ass to fend for himself against her. Last time she cornered him she threatened to savage his genitals over her daughter. So whoever thought it was good fucking idea to let his drunk ass around her mom was a fool. He stalled out with a piece of his hashbrown smothered in gravy, cheese, and bacon to his mouth. His face blazed red as he remembered stripping down right in front of her. Dear god he'd had his hand down his fucking boxers right there in front of her adjusting his cock like it was nothing.

Daryl tried to swallow around the embarrassment that was lodged in his throat. It was no good. He was going to smother on his shame. Hot damn. He was about to perish off this mortal coil and the last memories left of him was his drunken ass cursing at her mom while he groped his cock.

Carol stared at him. They all were but he only seen her eyes as they widened like she realized he wasn't breathing. Daryl stood up abruptly almost flipping the table. He needed to get some air. He escaped quickly. His hands shot to his pockets and he blew out a breath feeling his cigarettes there. Yessss smoking would soothe nothing being able to breathe. Everyone knew that. Lighting up Daryl inhaled sharply and let the nicotine rush through his system. He needed to get his shit together.

"You okay?"

Daryl nodded but his dad stepped in front of him. Will was looking him over and Daryl took another hit of his cigarette. Will frowned and leaned against the truck next to him.

"You sure because you look like shit."

Daryl nodded while blowing out smoke. He felt a little better but still more on the shit side of his hangover. The thought of working while he was like this made his muscles hurt. His head wasn't hurting as bad and his stomach wasn't rolling from not eating. He was clammy but he'd get over it soon enough. He needed actual sleep that wasn't him smothered under his brothers and Carol. Add in her mom walking in on that image with lastnight and he was ready to crawl in a hole. He just wasn't going to be able to look at her mom, not anytime soon.

"Did you eat enough?"

"Yes."

Will slapped his back as he flipped his cigarette. Carol and Danielle walked out carrying a bag. Will shrugged at him and unlocked the doors.

"She was worried you didn't eat enough. They went and ordered you food for later."

"I'll be fine."

Will smiled at him, "And she's going to worry regardless. They both will."

That feeling from earlier came back as Danielle walked up next to him. Her hand went to his arm getting his attention. He turned his head towards her to ask what she wanted but before he could her hand went to his forehead. Daryl stiffened unused to anyone being so forward with him besides his family. Hell they weren't even like that so much- just Carol. She frowned at him.

"You feeling okay?" Her voice was quiet.

"I'm fine."

Danielle pulled her hand back and studied him for a minute before shaking her head, "You've got a fever."

"I have a hangover." He deadpanned.

Danielle smiled at him then, "I'm sure you do but do you usually get so clammy and pale looking? You're sweating but I can see you shivering."

Daryl frowned at her and really paid attention to his body. He didn't have time to get fucking sick. He waved her concern away. Will was eyeing again and Carol was too. She looked ready to wrap him up in a blanket and guard him. He got in the backseat and groaned his muscles going lax. Carol was in doing the same as her mom. She was hovering over him and growling when he tried to swat her hands away.

"Be good or I'll have Will hold you down." Carol hissed.

Daryl huffed and let his head lull against the window. Danielle was talking to his dad outside the truck. Her concerned eyes were on him and he flinched at that. Carol wasn't joking about her maternal nature wrapping around everyone near her. He didn't know how to take it. He'd never really had a chance with his own mom. It was foreign. Sure Annette was around but not enough to say he'd had even a mother figure. He turned his head away from her and watched Carol. She was adjusting everything getting comfortable. He yawned and watched her as his eyes drooped feeling sleep come on. He knew he only had a cold. It was likely the same shit Andrea had the other day but everyone was making a big deal over nothing.

Daryl jerked when the doors shut. His eyes cracked open and Danielle was looking at him, "Go back to sleep Daryl. We'll wake you when we get there."

Nodding his head he didn't even pay attention to pulling Carol right up against him. It was second nature now. Her arm went around his middle and her head was on his chest. Feeling the rise and fall of her chest against his side was enough to put him to sleep with the sound of his dad's voice and Danielle's the background noise. He was going under and he was into deep already.
