Chapter 2
"Omg!" Daryl shouted rushing over to me. He opened 3 draws before he found the dish cloths. He wrapped it around my hand quickly and held my hand up.
"You tell me to calm down, look at you" he sighed.
I started laughing , really laughing, laughing so bad it started Daryl off.
"You literally are a nut job" he said after we both calmed down.
"But you still love me" I smiled.
"Most definitely" he smiled, "we need to get you over to the doctor"
"I better get changed then" I said. Daryl had to help me get into some clothes but still managed to get blood everywhere. We walked over to the doctors house, to find Rick there chatting to Jessie the doctor's wife.
"What happened?" Rick asked looking genuinely concerned.
"She had a little accident with a mug" Daryl said with no effort to look at Rick what so ever.
"My husbands out on a house call" Jessie said. She opened the towel and her eyes widened.
"I'll go and grab him straight away" she said and walked off down the road quickly.
"Go in to the back room" she shouted as she walked away.
So Daryl lead me through the house to the back room which was clearly where he practiced. I sat down on the bed to wait for the doctor. Rick had followed us into the room and he was looking at me as if I was about to die.
"There's no need for you to be here" I said sternly.
"Please don't be like that, I'm truly sorry for what went down last night" he replied.
"This is neither the time or the place, for this conversation" Daryl said.
"Well when you're all sorted can you please come and find me" he asked.
Daryl nodded in agreement and Rick left the room.
Shortly after the doctor came rushing in and put his bag down.
After he examined my hand, he announced that I needed stitches. It was all very professional, just like being at the ER. He stitched me up and bandaged my hand.
"Right, keep it clean and come and get it re dressed every 2 days. I will take the stitches out in about 10 days. In the mean time they not to use the hand much, we don't want the stitches coming out or any further damage " he said.
"Thanks doc appreciate it" Daryl said. Shaking the doctors hand. We headed back over to the house. Carl and Judith were sat out in the garden on a blanket.
Judith called out to me and Daryl. We walked over to her and Daryl picked her up.
"What did you do to your hand?" Carl asked.
"Slight accident with a mug" I smiled.
"suppose it will take some time to re adjust" Carl grinned.
I took Judith from Daryl and gave her a big kiss.
"How's my beautiful girl?" I asked.
She grinned and touched my face. Just then a few teenagers walked up to us . They greeted us and asked if we were settling in okay. They asked Carl if he wanted to hang out with them for a while.
"I can't right now, I have to watch my sister" he said.
"Don't be silly I will look after her for you, go and enjoy yourself you deserve it" I smiled.
"Are you sure?" he asked.
"Just go will you" I smiled.
"Thank you" he said kissing me on the cheek before walking off with the group of teenagers. One of them whispered to him (but not very quietly).
"Is she your mom she's fit?"
"no she's... well she's my Aunt" he replied.
"What ever she is she's fire" he replied.
"Hey, she's also my fiancé so keep your eyes off her" Daryl shouted out to them.
The kid looked like he had just been offered out by Bruce Lee.
"I'm watching you" Daryl added.
I laughed hard and so did Carl, the kid wasn't sure what to do so he just gave us an awkward grin.
Daryl left Rick a note to say that Carl had gone to hang out with some kids and Judith was next door with us.
I went inside and started to do the breakfast that I had been doing before Carol came. Daryl sat playing with Judith in the living room.
We sat on the porch table eating our food in the sunshine.
Judith was very vocal and kept shouting random words.
"It's so nice to let her do this without being told to be quiet, or scared the walkers are going to come for us" Daryl smiled.
"I know, bless her" I smiled
