Chapter 12
A couple long days later I was aloud to leave the room. Making my way downstairs, spotting Carol I smiled at her.
"How are you feeling hun?"
"Happy to be out of that room."
She laughed as I hugged her.
"So what have I missed?"
"Just setting up camp."
Laughing I followed her outside, stopping to stretch in the open air again. Spotting Lori talking to Glenn, walking closer Glenn noticed me first and nodded at Lori before walking over to me.
"Hey."
"Hey, what's going on?"
"Maggie and I are going into town. Glad to see you're finally up."
"It's good to be up. Be careful in town ok?"
"We will."
"I don't care about her, I'm talking about you. What did Lori want?"
"You promise not to tell?"
"Yeah."
"She wanted me to get her a pregnancy test."
"Um…Actually, could you grab me one too?"
"What?"
"Please Glenn?"
"Alright, only for you two though."
Throwing my arms around his neck, a small squeal escaping my throat.
"Thank you!"
"Your welcome."
Pulling back with a smile, looking around I noticed Daryl was missing and Shane was teaching Andrea how to clean her gun.
"Where did Daryl go?"
"He went to search for Sophia alone."
"Great."
Shaking my head I wished him luck again I wondered into one of the barns. Smiling at the few horses that had poked their heads out of their stalls at the sound of my entrance; walking over to a pure black stallion with a white star on his forehead.
Reading the name on the stall door, I stroked his head as he searched for a treat.
"Beauty huh? You do look like Black Beauty."
He shook his head when he realized I didn't have any treats for him.
Walking out of the barn, feeling light headed, I sat down and waited for the feeling to pass. When the world quit spinning, I could barely make out the group by the well. Watching Shane, Andrea, and Carol leave I figured they were headed to the highway.
Standing up I made my way back to the house, not paying attention to my growling stomach.
Taking a seat on the porch, next to Rick who had just returned with Hershel.
"You ok? You're looking a little pale."
"I'm ok Cobra."
"How's Carl?"
"He's stable."
"He'll be ok Rick, he's a strong kid."
Nodding he stood up and entered the house.
Seeing Glenn come back, following Lori over to Glenn. Giving them some privacy until he walked over to me.
"Here"
I sighed, grabbing the small package. Spotting Daryl coming out of the RV; quickly hiding the test in my pocket.
"Thank you."
"Is it his?"
"I don't know if I am yet or not, don't say anything though alright?"
"I won't"
"Say anything about what?"
Turning around hugging the hic.
"Nothing, don't worry about it."
"Uh huh."
Feeling his hand sneak into my back pocket I started to panic.
"And what's this?"
"What's it look like?"
"You tell me."
I sighed, trying to grab it back.
"It's a pregnancy test."
Watching his face go blank, I quickly grabbed the test and started walking away. Knowing he was following me.
"Leave me alone Daryl."
"No, haven't seen ya in two days."
"I can't take it till tomorrow anyway."
Gently he grabbed my wrist and steered me to his tent.
"What are you doing?"
"Nothin."
Shaking my head at the hic laughing lightly as we entered his tent; lying on his makeshift bed. Looking around I spotted the backpack I had grabbed when we were on the highway.
"You kept that?"
"I saw something interestin in it."
Looking up I smiled as he pulled his shirt off, turning my gaze back to the pack, pulling it to me opening it up.
"My shirt! I forgot about it!"
He laughed as I pulled the camo tube top out, holding it against my chest.
"What do you think?"
He laughed, pulling it lightly away from me.
"You can wear it tomorrow."
"Fine."
Laughing he lightly pulled my shirt off, running his hands over my stomach.
"What are you doing?"
"Imaginin."
Tilting my head I realized his eyes were closed.
"Imaginin what exactly?"
With a smirk he kissed my stomach.
"If the test is positive."
Laughing I smiled down at the hic.
"I'm hungry."
He laughed looking up at me.
"Well let's see what I can find."
Standing up he left the tent.
Sitting up, pulling the pack into my lap, I realized there where a few items I didn't grab.
Pulling out a wood handled brush, smiling I ran it threw my hair. Sighing at the feel of my hair becoming tangle free again; hearing the flap open and shut I looked up to see Daryl with a plate of food in his hands.
"Whatcha got?"
"Beans and squirrel."
"Yummy."
"Smart ass."
"Always."
He laughed handing me the food.
Quickly I dug in. Not having eatin in a few days I was starving.
"I take it you didn't eat in the house?"
"No, I couldn't swallow anything without being in pain."
"Oh."
Setting the plate aside, leaning back onto the makeshift bed.
"That was good."
"Glad you liked it."
Rolling my eyes I shimmied out of my pants, leaving me in my underwear. Looking at Daryl laughing at the look on his face; kicking his pants off, he joined me on the bed.
Running my hands threw his short hair gently, leaning down he kissed me on the lips. The familiar feeling something I missed. Taking his time running his hands over my body, leaning into his touch; whimpering when he slipped a finger into my core, pulling his hand back he stripped us both of our remaining clothes. Grinding our hips together he entered me causing us both to groan. Kissing me again as he barreled into me. Feeling my first orgasm arching into him; keeping up his pace spilling his seed into me.
Pulling out he pulled me to him, kissing the back of my neck before pulling a thin blanket over us.
The next morning after pulling on my jeans and tank top I snuck out before Daryl woke up. Walking away from the camp I took the test and waited for the result to show up. Finally after what seemed like hours the test came up negative. Breathing a sigh of relief, I walked back to the tent. Climbing in causing Daryl to wake up; tossing the test at him I pulled the tube top on and watched his reaction as he read the test; first a look of wonder, then anger, and eventually he nodded in understanding.
"It wasn't meant to be."
"No, but in this world is that really a bad thing?"
"Guess not."
Pulling on a wife beater and grabbing a plaid shirt he offered me a hand up.
"Let's find Sophia."
"Hell yeah."
Walking to the truck everyone was meeting at, I looked down at the mad Rick had lain out.
"Well who ever slept in the covers bought ye high."
Looking around I realized I had zoned out for some part of the conversation.
"I'm gonna borrow a horse."
Shaking my head as everyone was teasing Daryl for believing in a chupacabra. Spotting Hershel, making a bee line for him; shouldering my recurve and pocketing my gun as he stopped seeing my quick approach.
"Hey Hershel?"
"Yes Cobra?"
"Mind if I borrow Beauty today?"
He gave me a fatherly smile and nodded.
"If you can get him to work with you then yes, you can take him."
"Thank you."
Heading to the barn, grabbing everything I would need for the ride on the way.
After saddling the stallion up I was surprised at how easy he was to ride into the forest.
Searching threw the woods I aloud my thoughts to wonder to the Daryl. As far as I was aware he had no idea about the CDC. As long as Shane didn't get a big head and say something everything would be fine.
Spotting a path I nudge Beauty down it. Looking at the prints and deciding they were human. Hearing a rustling I pulled the stallion to a stop. Spotting a walker I pulled my recurve around, aiming at its head and releasing the arrow. Smirking as it hit right between its eyes.
"And that's how it's done."
Beauty nodded his head in agreement as I pulled my arrow out. Whipping it off on my shorts, deciding to head back to the farm when I heard a gun shot ring threw the air; panic racing threw my veins.
Kicking Beauty into a full run, reaching the farm I realized everyone was looking a bit worried at seeing my arrival. Sliding off Beauty, handing his reins to Maggie I turned to Glenn.
"I heard a shot, what happened?"
"Andrea shot Daryl."
"What?"
"He looked like a walker when he came out of the woods."
"Where is he?"
"Hershel's working on him now."
As if that were the magic words I could hear Daryl screaming from inside the house. Entering the house slowly, turning a glare at Andrea as I passed her.
Spotting Hershel walking out of one of the rooms cutting off a stream of curses as he shut the door.
"Is he going to be ok?"
"He'll be fine."
Poking my head in not surprised as he started yelling again.
"You know, you're gonna scare people with all your screaming."
Tilting his head to look at me a smile gracing his features.
"Thought you'd be used to screaming by now."
"Not you."
Sitting next to him on the bed, lightly stroking his face.
"How are you?"
"Hurt like hell."
"What happened out there?"
With a sigh he explained everything to me, falling off the horse, losing his arrows, seeing his brother.
"You can borrow some of mine."
"Thanks."
Hearing the door open I looked up to see Carol with a plate of food.
"Thought you two would be hungry."
"Thank you."
She smiled after thanking Daryl, leaving us to enjoy the meal.
After eating our fill I left Daryl to sleep on his own. Making my way threw the dark to our tent.
Curling up on the bed, slowly falling asleep.
