Yes, there is lemon early in this chapter, you don't have to read it, its only my second attempt at one so hopefully it's not that bad.

Chapter 5

Sitting down I ignored Daryl as I tied to examine the bruise on my thigh, hearing him sigh he looked down at my bruise and lightly touched it, causing me to hiss at him.

"It's not broken."
"Thank God."

Daryl sat down next to me and stared at the fire.

"Whatcha thinkin bout Daryl?"
"Do ya like me?"
"Huh?"
"Do you like me?"

With a slight smile I sat up on my knees, ignoring the pain in my leg, I turned Daryl's face to look at me and I gave him a quick kiss on the lips. With a grin he started kissing me back, pulling me to straddle his lap, he depend the kiss. As our make out session got more passionate, he pulled away and started kissing along my jaw line, and down my neck, earning a low groan from me when he got to the junction of my neck and shoulder. He sucked and nipped at my skin, leaving marks up and down my skin.
With a smirk, he turned us over so I was lying on my back. Going back to kissing me, his hands reached down and grabbed both my breast, causing me to let out a soft moan, smirking into the kiss, he worked on pulling off my shirt, tossing it on top of my jeans he sat back and stared at my Victoria's secret bra.
Pulling me to him, he snaked his arms around my back and quickly undid the clasps letting my breast fall free. Tossing my bra over with the rest of my clothes he stared at me as I lay back down. With a grin he kissed me again, then started making his way to my right breast, when he finally reached my nipple he started to lightly bite it, and would switch between that and sucking on it. While one of his hands worked with my other nipple. Finally he switched breast and gave my left nipple the same attention, causing me to grip his hair and arch my back, giving him more room.
Suddenly I felt his over hand cup my sex threw my thong. Pulling back he smirked at me.
All I could do was lean up and kiss him on the lips, while working his shirt off.
When it was tossed with the rest of the clothes he smiled down at me and started rubbing me threw the thin fabric, with a whimper I grinded my hips against his hand. Yanking off my thong, he spread my legs apart and started lightly rubbing my clit, and kissing me before I could get to loud.
After a couple of minutes of me whimpering he inserted one finger, slowly he pumped it in and out of me with ease, quickly he added another finger and pumped faster with me squirming under him. Suddenly I felt a pressure building, after a couple more quick pumps I had my first orgasm, laying back; I stared up at him, with lust in both our eyes. Standing up he removed his pants and boxers, and positioned himself at my entrance.

"Your not a virgin, are ya?"
"Yeah."

With a sigh, he kissed me as he entered me.
I let a couple of tears slip out because of the pain; I dug my nails into his shoulder, as he held still waiting for me to adjust to him. Finally I nodded at him, and he slowly began to pump in and out of me.
After a bit, his pace was to slow, so I screamed for him to go faster. That's all he needed to start ramming into me, until he found my g-spot, causing my head to fall back, and me to see stars.
With a grin he kept hitting that one spot over and over again, until finally we both came, he kept going riding out both our orgasms. Until he collapsed on top of me.
Pushing himself up, he slid himself out of me, causing us both to groan.
Lying next to me, we both tried to catch our breaths.
Smiling he rolled over and looked down at me. With a kiss, he dragged his hand up from my sex all the way to one of my breast, with a light squeeze, causing me to gasp; he stood up and pulled on his pants.
When he started making dinner for us, I sat up and stared at him. I couldn't believe I just gave my virginity to an almost complete stranger. Pulling on my clothes I sat in front of the fire.
After eating some squirrel, I attempted to fall asleep, until Daryl curled up behind me, and started spooning with me.

"Today was fun, sorry about scaring you off the cliff."
"It'll heal."
"Do ya regret sleepin with me?"
"No."

I felt him nod his head, and I aloud myself to fall asleep.

The next morning, Daryl and I packed up and started heading back to the main camp.
After a couple of hours of walking back to camp, we came across a huge deer.
Daryl turned to me with a grin and got his cross bow ready.
After we followed the deer for a few minutes, Daryl finally shot the deer in the shoulder, causing it to take off running.
Tracking the deer for a few miles the trees finally started looking familiar, until we heard a couple of children scream. Following the tracks we came across our deer with half it's neck gone, a walkers body laying to the side with a decapitate head, and all the men, minus Matt, and a new guy, holding weapons.

"Some of a bitch. That's my deer. Look at it all knolled on by this filthy...disease bearin...motherless...proxy bastard"

I winced every time he kicked the walker's body.
"Calm down son that ain't helpin it any."
I glanced over at Dale, as Daryl got in his face.
"What do you know about it old man?"
Daryl sighed and went to pull his arrows out of the deer.
"Been tracking this deer for miles, gonna drag it back to camp, cook us up some venison. What do you think? Think we can cut around this chewed up part here?"
He looked over at Shane as I looked around for my brother.
"We cannot risk that."
"It's a damn shame. I got some squirrel bout a dozen or so. That'll have to do."
All of a sudden the walkers head started moving.

"Come on people, what the hell?"
Then Daryl shot an arrow threw the walkers eye. Pulling the arrow out and shaking it off he looked at everyone like they were kind of stupid.
"It's gotta be the brain. Don't yall know nothing?"
I laughed a little as I followed Daryl back into camp, still searching for my brother.

"Merle! Merle! Get your ass out here got us some squirrels stew em up!"

That's when Shane called out to Daryl.
"Daryl? Shelby? Slow up a bit I need to talk to you."
We both turned to Shane
"Bout what?"
"Bout Merle and about Matt. There was a problem in Atlanta."

Feeling everyone's eyes on us I stepped away from the two men, if they started fighting I was not gonna be in between the two.

"He dead?"
"Not sure."
"Either he is or he ain't."

I sighed as I saw Daryl start getting in Shane's face a little bit.
That's when the new guy stepped up.

"There's no easy way to say this so I'll just say it."
"Who are you?"
"Rick Grimes."
"Rick Grimes you got something you wanna tell me?"
"Your brother was a danger to us all. So I handcuffed him to the roof by a piece of metal. He's still there."
"Hold on. Let me PROCCESS this. You said you hand cuffed my brother to a roof? And you left him there!"
"Yeah."

That's when Daryl threw the squirrels at this Rick person and attempted to attack him but Shane tackled him from the side. Daryl, pulled out a knife when he hit the ground and he attempted to stab Rick, but Rick was to fast, and as Shane held Daryl from behind Rick took Daryl's knife.

"Best let me go!"
"Think it's better if we don't."
"Choke hold is illegal."
"Come on now we can keep his up all day."
"I'd like to have a calm discussion about this, think we can manage that?"

Finally Shane let him go.

"What I did was not on a whim, your brother does not work and play well with others."
"It's not Ricks fault. I had the key. I dropped it."
"You couldn't pick it up?"
"I dropped it down the drain."
After a few seconds Daryl got up, and started walking around. I was getting fairly pissed off; something told me the same thing had happened to my brother.
"Supposed to make me feel better it don't."
"Maybe this will I chained the door to the roof so geeks couldn't get at him. With a padlock."
Rick chimed in, watching Daryl's every move.
"It's gotta count for something."
Even from behind I could tell Daryl was trying not to cry.
"The hell with all of yall, just tell me where he is, so's I can go get him."
"He'll show you. Ain't that right?"
I glared at Lori.
"I'm goin back."
As Daryl went to grab the squirrels to walk off I turned to Shane, my voice coming out shakier than I meant it to.
"Where's my brother Shane?"
"He got left behind to."
I turned towards Rick, sinking down low I was ready to attack.

"Excuse me?"
"Your brother was just as dangerous as Merle. He was handcuffed as well."
With a growl I threw myself at Rick, only to be held back by Shane, who just tossed me to the side. Sitting up, I saw that Daryl was offering me a hand up, taking it I followed him back to his tent.
Sitting down on his makeshift bed I stared at him as he gathered everything up.

"I'm going with you."
"No you ain't."
"Why not? My brother was left too."
"I couldn't stand if I lost you to damn it."
I stood up and stood behind him wrapping my arm around his waist, laying my head against his toned back.
"Bring everyone back? I couldn't stand it if I lost you too."
He turned around and gave me a heated kiss.
As we excited his tent Shane was talking to Rick.
"Just tell me why you would risk your life for a douche bag like Merle Dixon."
"Hey choose your words more carefully."
"Oh I did, douche bags what I meant."

Trying to avoid another fight, I pulled Daryl away from the two deputies.
He looked down at me and made sure he had all his arrows.
Until Lori spoke up.
"So you and Daryl? That's your big plan?"
Rick turned to Glenn.
"Oh come on."
"You know the way, you've been there before in and out no problem you said so yourself. It's not fair of me to ask, I know that, but I'd feel allot better with you along I know she would to."
"That's just great your gonna risk three men?"

I watched as Daryl remained quiet while he cleaned his arrows.
"Four."
"My day just gets better and better don't it."
"You see anybody else stepping up to save your brother cracker ass?"
"Why you?"
"You wouldn't begin to understand. You don't speak my language."
"So it's four."

I tried to ignore the deputies as they talked, crouching next to Daryl, I attempted to clean an arrow for him, but he wouldn't let me. I nudged him trying to get him to look at me.
He sighed as he went to climb in the truck to back it up. I watched with a feeling of dread in my chest.
Daryl climbed into the back of the truck and looked at every one with a fairly annoyed look on his face.

Getting extremely pissed off he honked the horn of the truck.
"Come on let's go!"
Leaning down to words me, he gave me a quick kiss.
"At the very least, you need to come back alive."
"I will."

I just nodded as I stepped away from the truck and went to stand with Amy and Andrea.
Amy gave me a quick hug when the truck began to drive off.

"I didn't think you and Daryl were a couple."
"Something changed while we were on that trip."
"Come on, we got laundry that needs to be done."

I laughed as I followed the small group to the quarry.
Sitting up shop next to Amy, I started working on my clothes, only stopping to watch Shane attempt to catch frogs.

"Can someone explain to me how women indeed up doin all the work?"
"The world ended didn't you get the memo?"
"It's just the way it is."
I glared at Ed behind us.
"I do miss my me tag."
"I miss my coffee maker with the gold drip filter and hand grinder hunny."
"My computer texting."
"My HHR."
Andrea looked around, almost embarrassed.
"I miss my vibrator."
Carol glanced behind us to see if Ed was listening or not.
"Me too."
That made us all bust out in giggles.
Catching Ed's attention. Making him walk over to us.
"What's so funny?"
"Just swappen horror stories Ed."
Him standing behind us was making both Andrea and I mad.
"Problem Ed?"
"None that concerns you. You otta focus on your work, this ain't no comedy club."

I gave Andrea a look I didn't take being ordered around very well.
Finally we both got tired of this jerk watching over us.
"Ed tell ya what you don't like how your laundries done you are welcome to pitch in and do it yourself, here."
When Ed threw the shirt back at Andrea, he missed hitting me in the back of the head, becoming royally pissed off I stood next to her.
"Ain't my job missy."
I had enough, no one was gonna disrespect any of the people in this camp, and especially not this son of a bitch.
"What is your job Ed? Setting on your ass smoking cigarettes?"
"Well it sure ain't listening to some uppity smart mouth bitch tell ya what."
He turned to words Carol.
"Come on, let's go."
"I don't think she needs to go anywhere with you Ed."
"I say it ain't non of your business. Come on now you heard me."
We all turned to Carol and tried to stop her.
"Don't think I won't knock you on your ass just cause your some educated cues alright. Now you come on now, or your gonna regret it later."
"So she can show up with fresh bruises later Ed? Yeah we've seen them."
This made Ed laugh at us.
"Stay out of it, now come on! This ain't known of yalls business. Yall are gonna keep prodding the bull here, now I am done talkin."
He grabbed Carol.
Andrea and I tried to get in between them.
"You don't tell me what?"
Making him back hand Carol.
Before Andrea could do anything I was in his face, I got a decent hit it, but he punched me square on the face knocking me back into the girls.
Shane showed up and started dragging his ass off to the side.
And started beating his face in.
after a few hits we were all screaming for Shane to stop.

"You put your hands on your wife, your little girl, or anybody else in this camp I will not stop next time. Do you hear me? Do you hear me? I'll beat ya to death Ed."
Shane landed another punch.
Finally Shane kicked him and walked past everyone, with Carol sobbing uncontrollably over what was left of Ed's face.
Grabbing my cheek Andrea helped me up.

"You alright Shelby?"
"I'll be fine."
