Hey there, sorry to leave it on such a cliff-hanger this last chapter! Thank you so much for the reviews and favs/follows. I'm happy that everyone likes my story! I hope you enjoy the next chapter!
Carl's face was frozen, staring at Daryl holding Aaron against the wall. He never wanted someone to find out about their relationship, his father would be angry for sure. Maybe he would never let him see Daryl again or worse, he might kill him. He didn't know what his father would do but the thought scared him.
Daryl's face was full on rage, keeping Aaron against the wall hard which made the other man wince slightly, "How the hell did you get in here?"
Aaron shrugged and grinned, "Well I have lived here longer than you, Deanna trusts me with a copy of all the house keys."
Daryl growled and threw Aaron to the floor, then kicked him hard in the stomach several times before leaning down to rummage through the man's pockets. He grabbed the keys from Aaron's back pocket and put them in his own, "Piece of shit," He said after he spit on Aaron's curled up body.
Aaron wheezed and curled into a ball, holding his stomach in pain, "Damnit Daryl. He's just a kid, why would you care so much for a kid like him? What's Rick going to say when he finds out you've been fucking his son?"
Carl gasped, got up quickly from the bed and pulled his pants and shirt on quickly. He ran out of the house before Daryl could say anything. Carl ran home as fast as he could.
Daryl didn't stop him, just watched. Now he could kick Aaron's ass in piece. He grabbed the man by the collar and pulled him up to his feet, their faces only inches apart, "If you tell Rick, I don't care what he does to me but I will kill you." He looked the man in the eyes before slamming his forehead into Aaron's, knocking the man out.
Daryl let him fall to the floor, staring down at him for a few moments. He grabbed his clothes and got dressed. He leaned down and picked him up, throwing him over his shoulder and carried him back to his own house, sitting him up on against Aaron's front door for Eric to find in the morning.
It was still dark outside at this time. Daryl was too pissed off to sleep now so he walked over to the front gate to take over a shift to cool his head.
The next morning came and it was one that Carl was dreading. He had laid in bed all night thinking about what his father would do if he found out about Daryl and him being together. It's not like it was a relationship between a man and a woman.
Daryl had been thinking about it all night as well. If he wanted the burden of telling Rick himself or if he just wanted to keep it a secret. Daryl wasn't the type of man to just let something go and he didn't want someone else spilling the beans.
Daryl was relieved from duty at the gate and decided he was going to tell Rick himself. He wandered around looking for him, then spotted him at the pantry. He took in a deep breath and started over to him.
Before he could get there, he saw Carl walk up to Rick. Daryl stopped and hid behind the corner of the house before he got to Rick.
Rick was standing at the garage opening of the pantry.
"Dad, I have something I want to tell you," Carl said, walking up to him.
Rick turned around, "What is it, Carl?"
"I… I'm in love with someone," Carl turned red when he said this, his palms became sweaty and he couldn't look his father in the eye.
Daryl watched in amazement that Carl would be the one to tell Rick.
"You're in love with someone? Who?" Rick was intrigued now.
"I'm in love with… Enid. I've been sneaking out with her a lot lately, I just wanted you to know," Carl's heart felt heavy as he lied to his father about his relationship.
Daryl turned back into the side of the house, leaning against it. He clenched his fists hard, his nails digging into his palms until they bled. He turned around and punched the side of the house hard before storming off towards his house. He grabbed his bike and road to the gate where he saw Carl run up to him. Rosita opened the gate.
"Daryl, where are you going?" Carl asked, confused as to why Daryl would be leaving by himself.
Daryl didn't look up at him, he revved his engine, "Mind your own damn business, kid. You just worry about your little girlfriend and leave me the fuck alone." With that said, he sped off as fast as his bike would take him.
Carl felt a sting in his heart, from Daryl's words. He didn't think anyone else was around when he said that to this father. It was a horrible lie, he couldn't take those words back now. And now Daryl was all alone outside of Alexandria.
Short chapter but I'll make another one shortly! But oh my gosh! What's going to happen to Daryl? He's all alone out there! We all know he can handle himself but what is Carl going to do? Find out next time!
