After dinner was cleared up, I helped Jordan upstairs. "You know, Daryl and I can bring your bed downstairs, right?" I said walking close behind her. "No I have to do this", she said.
"Ok. Well, I'm going to bed", I said getting to the top of the staircase. "I second that", Daryl said walking upstairs. We smiled at him. "You two..." Jordan said.
"Michonne said, she'll be up in a bit", Daryl said, as we started to walking my room.
I laid down on the bed and he tossed me over him. He grabbed my waist and started kissing my neck. He traced my scars, and let out a sigh. "What?" I asked.
"Nothing", he said going to my lips. "What is it?" I said stopping him. "It's just that... I don't know why a girl as kind, caring and tuff as you... Would've just let your dad do that to you!" He said.
My eyes grew big. I didn't know what to say. I just kissed him. He kissed me back and one thing led to another.
A couple hours later, I got dressed and walked downstairs and walked downstairs and made sure all the doors and windows were locked. When I was dine, I walked back upstairs. Daryl was still laying on my bed, "Why do you check the doors and windows? I mean... Obvious reasons, but there's something else." "Um... One day before everyone died, I forgot to lock one window and a dragger slipped un and knicked my mom", I said.
"Oh... Sorry... For... Ah asking", he said. "It's ok", I said scooting closer to him. "I love you", he whispered in my ear.
"I love you too", I said back and we were sound asleep.
The next morning, I woke up before Daryl. I got out of bed and walked downstairs to make breakfast for the group. I made hash browns and bacon.
Carl was the first one up. 'Oh great', I thought. He smiled. "Good Morning", I said awkwardly. "Mornin'"
"Hey. Since you're up, can you maybe set the..." He stopped me. "The table... Yes", he said snarky. That was Daryl and my thing. He was pushing it. Then daryl woke up. "Hi!" He said kissing me. "What's for breakfast?"
"Food", I smirked. He tickled me and put me in the kitchen table and kissed me. Carl came in, "Get a room!" Daryl and I laughed.
"Carl, go wake up your dad's room", I said, then walked upstairs to wake up Jordan and Michonne.
Once everyone was downstairs in the dining room, I put the platters of food in the middle of the table. Everyone talked, ate, and laughed. We were one big happy family, like nothing was going on... On the outside.
After breakfast, Carol and I cleaned up the kitchen. Once we were done, I pulled Carol in the library. "I have something for you", I said. "Really?" She lit up.
"Yea", I reached into my pocket and pulled out a heart necklace with diamonds. "Oh my God... I can't except thus", she said. "Yes you can... Please take it", I said. "Ok. Thank you so much." She said pulling me into a hug. "I'm never taking it off." I giggled and went upstairs to get dressed.
I went into my closet expecting to see no one there, but it wad Daryl. When he saw me, he sprung up and shoved a little black box into his pocket. I kind of pushed it aside in my mind. I got on a blue lace tank top, cut offs, and boots. "You look..." He said staring at me. "Speechless?" I said smiling. "He nodded.
