Chapter 6 - Daryl
This cabin isn't what I expected. This wasn't a fuckin' cabin at all. The cabins I've seen are a little more than a room or two rooms with bare essentials, this was a god damn mansion made out of logs. "This was her family's?" I thought to myself. "Man, she is so outta my league. Who was I kidding?" It pissed me off that once again nothing good was going to come from me because I was nothin' but a redneck loser.
"We need to sweep this place, "I told her trying to get my head back in the game. I found myself thinking too much when she was around…think bout her. "Let's go, follow me."
Together we moved from room to room with my crossbow up and cocked and Lauren's gun in her hand. The house was clear and fuckin' huge. You coulda fit the piece of crap I grew up in here four times over and still had room. Damn.
As much as I hated to admit it this place had possibilities…good ones. Unlike any future I thought I could maybe find with Lauren. I mean she did smile at me a lot, but hell did that mean anything?
I watched her drop down on the sofa and suddenly jump back up with a huge smile. "Cross your fingers," she said.
What were we twelve? "What the fuck for?"
Son of a bitch, Lauren's flips the light switch and the lights turn on. She starts dancing around laughing about food, the refrigerator and hot showers. That's great news, but all I can see while she is dancing are her boobs bouncing and her ass moving and fuckin-a there goes my dick again. I quickly sit down to cover my damn hard on. I can't help but smile at her enthusiasm.
"Before we get too comfortable, we still have work to do, Lauren," I remind her. Think work… think of anything but her in that hot shower. C'mon Dixon.
I watch her head down the hallway to turn the hot water heater on. That'll give me a minute to get my dick under control. I know it's thinking like a horny bastard that hasn't had sex since everything went to shit, but Lauren wasn't some dumb chick that was good for a quick fuck. For the first time, I wanted more and I wanted it with her. I wanted what Glenn and Maggie had. I just didn't know if that was ever in Daryl Dixon's future.
