Catori saw Bob next to Tyrese while he dug Karen's grave. Cautiously and quietly she approached them both. When she looked at Bob he just shook his head, silently telling her the man was still upset.
Tyrese stopped digging and looked up at her with his good eye, "What do you want?" He asked in a neutral tone, not an angry sounding one like she had expected.
"I just came to see if you were okay and to pay my respects. Karen was always nothing but kind to me."
"I don't understand who would do something like that to her... She got along with everybody." Tyrese moved the shovel around after he spoke, a lost expression on his face, "Did you see anything with Karen in any vision dreams you tend to have?"
"No, I would've tried warning someone if I did. I'm sorry." Catori pulled at her long braid that was still somewhat dyed green from before the world went to hell. Her hair had gotten longer but she refused to cut it, "Everything will be okay. Rick is good at figuring things out so he'll find whoever..." Her voice trailed off and a hand reached up to her chest.
"Cat?! What's wrong?" Bob jumped forward, as did Tyrese when she started to drift to the ground. Tyrese pulled her hair back so they could see her face, "What is it?"
"I don't know..." Bob rubbed a comforting hand on her back, "What does it feel like?"
"I don't... I feel sick..." Bob felt of her head, "You don't seem to have a fever. Have you been coughing?"
"No, I haven't." Tyrese sat down on the ground next to her, "Just throwin' this out there, might sound weird coming from me... But have you had your... Uh... Female monthly thing lately?"
Cat's eyes widened, "Oh... Shit!"
Rick spoke from behind them, startling all three of them, "Is somethin' wrong?"
Tyrese stood up with the shovel and walked back to the grave he was working on, not breaking eye contact with Rick. "I'm sorry for what happened, what I did."
"Its on both of us." The ex cop turned and looked to the other two on the ground, "What's wrong?"
...
Daryl smiled at the pictures Glenn had taken of him and Catori. He had four pictures, his favorite being the one of the two of them kissing passionately. His second favorite was the two of them gazing at each other. The third and fourth pic were actually taken by Cat, facebook style. She had held the camera up and taken a few with them smiling.
He was allowed to freely look through her personal journal she wrote in and kept the pictures in there so they would be safe. So many people were getting sick and he was trying to keep her away from the sick area so they wouldn't have to be separated.
It was late, he noticed, almost one o'clock. Cat hadn't come to their cell for bed yet. He was about to get up when she came into the cell, dragging as if she were tired.
"Kitty?" Daryl walked over to his wife and put his hand under her chin so he could make eye contact. Her eyes were red and puffy, it was obvious she had been crying, "What's wrong?"
Her lips moved but nothing came out but a strained gasp at first. She tried again, "Daryl..."
"You can tell me anything, Cat. You know that right? What's got you upset?" He asked again, his voice still soft and gentle.
"Y-you're going to be a daddy."
"What?"
"I'm pregnant..."
So he had heard her right. He couldn't help but question why is wasn't angry or even pissed.
Upset, yes.
Having another baby in a world of walkers, one was hard enough to keep quiet and safe. But Daryl could not bring himself to be angry over this situation. It was both of them that were at fault, after all. So he was going to accept this challenge And he would be lying if he said he didn't want the kid.
"We're gonna have a little ass kicker of our own?" He asked, receiving a nod. Cat stood there waiting for his reaction only to be shocked when he dropped to his knees in front of her, putting his hands over the brown corset she loved to wear. He noticed it wasn't tied quite as tight as usual. She wasn't showing yet but he still pulled her pants down slightly and pushed the corset up a ways then pressed his lips against her lower belly in a cute kiss. "I guess this means we need more baby stuff." He smiled up at her to see her smiling that beautiful smile of hers back down at him.
"Two babies around is going to be a bit hard to keep quiet..."
"Yeah... But you have me here, too." He stood up and took her hands in his, "We're going to an animal hospital or something like that. Will you be OK here?"
"You know I will be."
