If you were quiet, if you were small, little, if you seemed weak until the last moment, you'd live. You'd survive. You'd thrust a machete up through a walker's skull and you'd live. Five years in the future, tv-canon, Beth & Daryl, and a little girl gone feral.

Ten times that Daryl realizes that Beth is no longer safely tucked into the little girl category that he keeps her in.

Beth's life has been easy until one day, it isn't. She struggles to cope with the demands of surviving the apocalypse. Everyone has always protected and sheltered Beth, so she expects the same treatment as she finds her feet but one man seems to go out of his way to antagonise her. Beth starts to learn the reality of the world and people. Copyrighted.

Lizzie is convinced that Daryl and Beth are meant to be, but Carl thinks she's crazy. Can two meddling kids get them together? Or will past demons and present danger keep them apart? "Seems like loving someone is as good as putting a curse on them." Season 4, Ep 1 AU. Lemons, violence, and lots of Dixon-like language. BETHYL. COMPLETE.
