I look over at Daryl, he is staring down at his shoes not daring to meet anyone's eyes. Should I be feeling ashamed that I did that? "It was a mistake, I'm drunk I was feeling a little curious" Daryl says as he lifts his head up to meet Maggie's eyes and then looks to Carol who is still gaping at him. I cant help the stinging feeling in my eyes now, I feel like the tears forming in my eyes are about to fall.

I quickly blink them away and turn to Daryl who doesn't bother looking at me just looks at the wall in front of him. "It will never happen again Daryl I promise, It was my fault I shouldn't have kissed you. I'm sorry" I tell him before I push my way past everyone and head straight for the door. Once I am on the street I don't walk the 10 feet to my house, I just keep walking down the street not knowing where my destination is. I need to think, alone.

*Daryl's POV*

I want to tell Rick not to leave that I didn't mean what I said, but it was too late. I had already said all those things to him, to everyone. I cant take it back, Even if I wanted to he was already gone out the door before I could even open my mouth to form words. "Don't be stupid Darry, go after him" Maggie says to my while placing her hand on my arm. " I'm not as stupid as you two seem to think I am, I knew this was going on." She looked me in the eyes and I couldn't believe it when all I saw was understanding. I nodded and hugged her before walking up to Carol and pulling her into a hug and whispering in her ear "sorry."

she laughed lightly "Its okay, I kinda thought you two were... I guess I was right." She squeezed me tightly then let go, I turned to Lori who had a discussed look on her face. She crossed her arms in front of her chest " I'm not gonna give him up, so be ready for competition" she spat out thinking she sounded intimidating. I shrugged "Fine by me, I always win." I jogged out the door down the street, knowing he wouldn't go home after something like this. I just hope he will forgive me.

Author Notes:

Hey guys sorry for the short chapter, I have so much homework to do so didnt really have that much this week. I will be switching between Daryl and Rick's POV throughout the story just so you know. I know I left things kinda tense between them but I promise they will make it through this also I promise next week's chapter will be longer. Thanks for sticking with me this long :)
