Hey guys!
Sorry, but last week I have made a little mistake. This should actually be chapter 11. I have totally overseen it, because I have already written the whole story.
I'm sorry for confusing you, but here is the right chapter 11 ;)
Daryl had never believed, that it was so exhausting and hard to be a leader. Especially when you wanted to be a good leader, to try your best to not disappoint the other, to disappoint Beth.
And Daryl still didn't know how he was doing it, but somehow he made it. Even good, at least Beth was telling him so every time she could, she always remembered him about that. Even when Rick had offered him his help, Daryl tried to not ask his friend, because Rick needed his time out and Daryl wanted to show him, the other, Beth and even himself, that he was able to be a leader.
Instead of asking Rick for help, Daryl asked Beth very often how she would handle different situations, what she would do next or if she could help him to talk to the other, because Daryl was never good with words. And of course, she helped him with pleasure, always that cute smile on her lips.
Beth. She became some kind of support for Daryl, his light. But still he hadn't told her about what he had done to her mother and brother. Daryl really wanted to tell her, but somehow he lost hope, that one day the right moment will come and that hopefully then he will be ready to form the right words for it.
Because he was feeling so damn guilty, Daryl brought Beth every time he was on a run something along. Maybe he was also doing so, because he just loved it to see her truthfully, bright smile and her beautiful eyes looking so happy up at him.
Daryl had brought her a guitar from an old school, which Beth had almost hugged, when he gave it to her. Since that day she was singing songs and played the guitar for little Judith, while the two of them were sitting on a blanket in the high grass. Daryl tried to suppress to watch Beth sitting like an angel there and the need to go over to them and listen like the baby to her beautiful singing voice, but unfortunately Daryl had to do his job. But still he was smiling the whole time, while he helped the other and Beth's songs filling the warm summer air.
One day Daryl had found some sweets in the drawer of a kitchen and Beth talked him into, that they will eat them together, not only her alone. He had found them, so they had to share. And so they did that evening, after they had sex in the guard tower and still half naked, Beth was eating a cracker on the mattress, giggling sweetly while doing so.
The books Daryl had brought her, were enough to make the day good, eveb after that long, exhausting run. On the same evening Beth had got into his cell, laid herself on her belly on top of his bed and began to read one of the books, while she was moving her bare feet up and down. Daryl knew, that he had to concentrate on his work, about the list he made with what they had to do tomorrow and the things they still need, but he just couldn't look away from the sweet, blond girl on top of his bed. Beth was so focused on the words, that she hadn't even noticed it, that Daryl was watching her all the time.
But the brightest smile he got was when he had found her a necklaces with a little bird on it. First he was feeling a little embarrassed to give it to her, but Beth deserved it and the bird also fitted, because in the last time she became the songbird from the whole prison. And especially Daryl's songbird.
After Beth had stared at least three minutes at the jewellery in her palm, she finally threw her arms around his neck and whispered fifth times 'thank you' next to his ear. And Daryl just couldn't act any other, than pulling her closer and holding her tight for just a few seconds. Since that day Beth was wearing the necklace around her gracefully neck every day and on some evenings it was the only thing she was wearing.
Beth knew, that Daryl had much to do with his new job as a leader and that he was always so exhausted by the end of the day, because of that she didn't ask him so often any more, if they could have sex later. On the one hand it was sweet from her, because she obviously really cared about him and how he was feeling, but on the other hand Daryl missed her so much.
When his needs were on top, Daryl whispered into Beth's ear, while she helped her father and sister in the garden, if they could meet in their secret room tonight and he hadn't even ended the sentence, when Beth already nodded wildly her head. Obviously she was missing him as much as he missed her.
Daryl was already waiting for her to appear since over thirty minutes. Maybe Maggie was annoying her or her Hershel still needed her help for something, because in the last time she was never that late. But Daryl didn't bother about the waiting, he would for the rest of his life just to get a few minutes with her together. But slowly he began to worry, that maybe something had happened or she wasn't feeling good.
Daryl just wanted to look after her, when suddenly the door got opened and Beth's blond hair appeared. But something was wrong, Daryl could tell it in the very first second. Her shoulders were so limp, her eyes sanked to her feet on the ground and she was so silent, not like usual. And the worst, Beth's whole body language just looked hopeless sad.
Daryl just wanted to get to Beth and ask her what was wrong, when she slowly lifted her head and her red, swollen eyes finally met his. "Hey." She simply welcomed him, without a smile, so untypical for her. Daryl finally closed the distance between the two of them and reached for her hands. "Beth. What happened sweetheart?" He asked all worried, but she just shook her head, like she didn't know what he meant, when she simply answered "Nothing."
Tilting his head, Daryl got really worried then, while he framed her soft cheeks with his palms and carefully he stroked with his thumbs over the skin close to her eyes. "I can see, that you have cried sweetheart. So what's wrong?" Daryl tried one more time.
Still not willing to tell him, Beth shook her head and said with a small voice "It's even ridiculous and I don't want to bother you with it Daryl. I know you have already enough worries, so you don't also need mine. Just let us.. you know.. start."
Looking her deep in the eyes for seconds, inspecting her expression and watching the new tears glistening in her eyes, which Beth tried to suppress so bad, Daryl finally whispered "I'm not starting as long as you won't tell me what's wrong sweetheart." Just his words broke her finally, when one tear found its way out of the corner of her eye and Beth finally leaned her head against his chest.
"It's okay sweetheart. Shsh.. It's okay.." Daryl tried to calm her down, while he was stroking carefully over her golden locks. Beth wasn't crying much, she had probably already cried most of her tears for today, but still Daryl could hear her quiet sobs.
And without even thinking about it, he leaded his lips to Beth's forehead and pressed a warm kiss there. "It's not nothing, when it makes you cry and sad sweetheart." Daryl held Beth as close as possible, even cradled her a little, while his right hand moved shooting over her tiny, trembling back.
Finally Beth moved her head, so her mouth wasn't pressing against the fabric of his shirt any more and she was able to speak "Since weeks I want to do more for the group. Help to kill the walkers by the fence, make the prison more secure and go on runs. But daddy and Maggie just don't let me."
With her glassy eyes Beth was looking up at Daryl to make sure he was really listening, of course he did. "They say I'm too weak for doing so and I also don't know how to handle a weapon. They say I'm just not strong enough. But I don't want to make the laundry and cook the whole day long. I love Judy, but I also just don't want to be the baby sitter all the time. I want to help, but I just don't know how to talk them into it. I have tried it already so often, but they don't even listen to me any more."
"But you aren't weak Beth." Daryl said softly, which made her smile for one quick second. "Yeah, you know that Mr. Dixon, but Maggie and daddy don't know it or just don't want to see it, that I'm not the little girl from before any more." Beth said broken, before she leaned her head against Daryl's chest again.
After looking down at her for a few moments, Daryl decided, that he really hated it to see Beth like that. Slowly he loosened their embrace and said during "C'mon girl. I want to show you something." Daryl already leaded Beth by her hand outside the room, when she asked surprised "But what about.."
"Not today girl. Not when you are sad." Daryl told her over his shoulder and before he moved his head, he could see a thankfully smile on Beth's lips. Daryl leaded her trough the half prison into a part Beth was probably never before. Even himself had found this place just days ago
The last three minutes they were walking through almost dark corridors, so they both needed a few seconds to get used to the daylight, after Daryl had opened the heavy metal door to the flat roof.
The last sun beams of the day were shining down at them. The bricks had saved the heath from today, so it was still warm, while Daryl leaded Beth over the roof. "It's so beautiful here." Beth finally whispered with an opened mouth and shining eyes. Exactly the expression Daryl wanted to see from her.
The building on top they were going, was surrounded from many trees and didn't matter in with direction they were looking, they always saw the treetops. Because the roof was already so old, little plants and even flowers were blooming here, next to some soft moss.
"You like it?" Daryl asked her, even when he already knew the answer. "Oh yes, Mr. Dixon. I have never seen such a roof before, it's more like a garden even." Beth answered him all happy. He adored that expression so much more, even his own mood got better with it. When Beth was happy, he also was it.
"I have just found this place last week. Wanted to show it to you since that, but just hadn't the time to." Daryl told her, when he got it, that he was still holding her hand. Slwoly he leaded Beth to a big broken branch, which had probably fallen down after a bad storm.
"So this is also part of our little secret now, Mr. Dixon?" Beth asked playfully, while they both set down on the old wood. "If you want. But if we keep in including things, it won't be such a little secret any more girl." Daryl answered and they both began to laugh then.
They kept on sitting on the branch, even after the sun was already gone since minutes. They were talking about anything and nothing, laughed much and were just happy together. When Daryl noticed Beth shiver next to him and he also saw the goose bumps on her bare arms, he simply pulled out of his vest and laid it protective over her tiny shoulders.
"Here girl. Do you want to go inside? Not that you will catch yourself a cold." Daryl asked her a little worried, but Beth just smiled, because of his protecting way. "Nah, I'm good Mr. Dixon. Even very good." She whispered, while she pulled the fabric even tighter around herself and moved closer to Daryl's side.
Like they had already done it their whole life long, Daryl automatically placed his arm around her body, to pull her even closer and bury his nose into her delicious smelling hair. They were sitting like that a half eternity. Beth had leaned herself against Daryl's body, even held herself close with her right arm around his belly, feeling it rising up and down with his breathing.
Daryl liked it, that he could give Beth the warmth she need. To be useful for somebody. Listen to her breathing, knowing that she was safe, even good, was enough for Daryl to smile happily to himself. Beth Greene had definitely became the light for him, the light he never had in his life before, but he had always needed so bad.
Even when Daryl liked the silence in the middle they were sitting, he still whispered "If you want, I can show you how to use a gun, a knife or even the crossbow. So your sister and father won't have a reason any more to tell you can't do the things you want."
Quickly Beth lifted her head then and looked with unbelievable eyes up at him. "You would really do that Daryl?" She obviously couldn't believe his words, while her expression was almost begging him to say yes. Hell, he really won't ever be able to tell her the opposite, while she is looking at him with her angel eyes.
"Of course, sweetheart. I would do everything for you." Daryl answered, feeling a little embarrassed about his choice of words, but it obviously made Beth happy and that was the most important thing. "Thank you so much Daryl." She told him with those damn big, blue eyes of hers and her so tender looking lips formed a perfect smile, while her palm was still laying on top of his belly.
Still now Daryl was always able to suppress this need, but right now, he just couldn't hold it back any more, when he slowly leaned down and placed a long kiss on top of Beth's soft lips. Daryl needed room for this need, he just had to do it and after their lips got separated again, he knew, that Beth wasn't mad at him about what he had just done.
Even on the contrary. Before his lips got even away from her reach, Beth quickly covered them with hers again, while she easily climbed on his lab. Soon their heated bodies needed more, when her tiny tongue was licking gently Daryl's warm lips to ask for permission.
Their tongues made a battle already since minutes, while Beth was rubbing her middle against Daryl's erection, but he exactly knew, that they simply couldn't have sex out here, at least not today. So he whispered against her wet lips "We should go inside sweetheart."
Beth knew he was right and even when she missed his touches the second Daryl had pulled away, she followed him hand in hand back to their family. The C-block was already dark, when they entered it and Daryl brought Beth to her cell.
But before she slipped behind her private curtain, Beth pulled Daryl down to her to kiss his lips one more time. So sweet and soft, but at the same time seductive and passionate. And till now it was the best good night kiss he had got from her. "This can also be part of our little secret, Mr. Dixon." Beth whispered, before she covered his lips one more time.
With a smile on his lips, Daryl almost shoved Beth inside her cell, because if he would her body so close to his for just one more second, he would probably follow her inside. "Sleep well baby girl. Tomorrow we start with our training, so be rested." Before Beth really disappeared inside, she winked at Daryl over her shoulder and whispered "Yes, Mr. Dixon."
Over one month had already passed, since Daryl was giving Beth lessons and first her sister and father weren't that happy about it, but finally they got it, that they couldn't stop her and it was also for her own best to know how to use a gun.
Beth was a clever, fast pupil, Daryl had already known that before, but he was really surprised about how fast she got everything. Of course, she had still problems with the cleaning from some guns and loading his crossbow, but Daryl helped her with pleasure. Beth was doing really good and so they had stopped their training and kill whole days long walker by the fences and finally got on little runs, just the two of them.
By her first, Beth was so excited and thankfully that she almost climbed on Daryl's lab, while he was driving, but he told her with a smirk on his lips and a half hard dick, that first they had to do their job and after, the fun could follow.
With a sad looking face and also pulling her under lip over her upper, Beth tried to change Daryl's mind, but it didn't work. With an amused smile on his lips, Dary just turned on the radio and started a song from the first CD he could find.
Beth began to laugh out loud then, but still she was singing along with the song she obviously knew, but Daryl had never ever heard before. Still smiling to himself, he was watching her singing all happily. Also when Beth opened the window to stretch her hand outside and lean her face against the driving wind.
Thankfully nothing bad had happened. They just had to kill three walkers and Daryl was so damn proud about Beth. They were even using his hunting movements, he had taught her just three days ago. Even some useful things they had found in the lonely houses and Beth's happiness was enough for Daryl after the hours of teaching her everything.
On their way back, Daryl suddenly stopped the car and Beth already gripped for her knife, which caused him to smile proudly. All tensed she whispered "What's wrong Daryl?" Her eyes were searching urgently for the danger she still hadn't noticed. "Nothing girl." He simply answered her, which made her look at him confused.
"So why have you stopped the car then?" Beth asked, while she pulled her knife back again. "I have just thought, that maybe you want some fun now?" Beth's face lightened up in the second she finally got it what he meant. While sucking her lower lip heated between her teeth, Beth nodded wildly her head.
"Then come over here girl." Daryl commended her, his right arm already stretched out for her. Easily Beth climbed on his lab and just minutes later the whole car was moving to their movements, while the air was filled with both of her moans and whimpers.
After they had started their way home again, it needed just a few minutes, till Daryl could hear Beth's regular breathe and when he looked to his right he saw the blond girl sleeping there like an angel.
Daryl smiled to himself, while he was watching Beth sleeping from the corner of his eyes and finally he stroked carefully with his rough palm over the back of her left hand. She was still asleep, when she took his hand and made him so stay. On Beth's lips also played a little smile then.
Daryl was so damn proud about her and it was just too damn cute, that she was that exhausting after today. If someone would ever ask Daryl, what was the definition of perfection for, it would be Beth Greene.
It was almost sunset, when they finally reached the gates of the prison and Daryl just had to pull his hand away, even when he didn't want to. He had just placed it on the steering wheel, when Beth's eyes began to flater and she slowly woke up.
"We are already back sweetheart." Daryl whispered, while Beth stretched herself and smiled dreamily up at him. He just had stopped the car, when Maggie and also Hershel were already standing there, glad to have their Bethy back.
With a proud smile, Beth showed her family all the stuff they had found. She even told them the little story about how they had killed the tree walkers. All in all Beth was happy and so Daryl was it too.
