He knew he should go to see his brother but he wasn't ready to see him. This whole thing was his fault. It was his fault Jillian wasn't in love with him anymore. He was packing up the rest of his stuff with a frown. He leaned down and picked up her pillow. He brought it to his face then threw it angrily across the tent. It hit the tent wall and fell the floor.

" Stupid bitch." He muttered.

Daryl held onto the straps of crossbow as he crossed the other field leading to the barn he knew they were holding his brother in. He stared at the ground as he walked. He had seen Andrea leading Jillian to the farmhouse and knew she was going to be in the shower for a while. He had almost packed everything up and into his truck. He just needed to pack up a few more things then he and Merle could leave. When he reached the barn, he slid open the door and walked in.

" Brother!" Merle called out from his spot at the pole he was tied too.

" Let him go. We're leavin." Daryl said to Rick and Shane. He noticed their eyes slip pass him.

" Leaving?" Carol's small voice asked. " You can't leave, Jillian needs you." Daryl turned around as she started towards him.

" She don't need me. She don't even want me." He snapped.

" How could you say that? How could you even think that?" Carol asked, her eyes were red rimmed with tears.

" I heard her say it. She blames me, wished I left her in the field to die that day. She said she hated me." He said. Carol crossed her arms over her chest and shook her head.

" She wasn't thinking. I know she wasn't talking about you. She loves you and she needs you more then ever now." She said. " Please, go to her. Talk to her, straighten this out. If she loses you too..." Carol's speech paused as a tear slipped from her eye. She wiped it away. " please, Daryl. She can't lose you too."

Jillian was sitting in the field staring at straight ahead to the spot where her sister died. The camp moved around her, stealing glances at her. Her long hair was down and blowing slightly in the breeze. She knew Daryl had buried her, she knew where but she couldn't bring herself to go to the grave. She didn't know where Daryl was. She hadn't seen him all day but she hadn't looked for him much. She wanted to but she didn't have it in her to move. She closed her eyes and tilted her face up to the sun.

" Jill." Daryl's voice made her squeeze her eyes tighter. Her head dropped as the tears started again.

" Where have you been?" She asked softly. Daryl cleared his throat. He was standing behind her.

" Takin care of things." He said. " I'm leavin." Jillian turned around and looked at him in shock.

" What?" She asked. He shifted his weight.

" I'm gettin Merle and we're leavin." He said as he looked away. Jillian stood up with a pained look on her face.

" Why?" He shrugged.

" Was the plan we made." Daryl said.

" Plans changed, don't you think?" She asked. " I can not leave now, I can't leave my mom."

" Didn't ask you too." He said. He finally looked at her. A few tears were making their way down her cheeks.

" How can you leave me?" She whispered. Daryl squinted his eyes.

" Heard what you said. Why you care? I figured it'll be better for you without me around." Jillian started towards him quickly.

" What did I say?" She asked. Daryl shook his head. " No, you think you heard something, tell me what it is."

" I heard what you said to Carol. You said you wished I left you in the field. You said you hated me."

" I never said that. I would never say that I hate you." She said.

" I ain't stupid, Jillian." He spit out. " I know what I heard." She started shaking her head as she reached him.

" I never said I hated you. I love you. I need you, I can't get through this without you." Daryl backed away from her, making her steps stop.

" I know what I heard. You said it was all my fault and you hated me." Jillian shook her head and fell to her knees. Her head dropped as she shook her head and covered her face.

" Please," She started to beg. " Please, don't go. I never said that." Her head came up as she looked at him. " I said I wished you left me in the field, that's true. If you had left me there, Merle would have never kidnapped Sophia in the first place. You would have never went out looking for her. He wouldn't have gotten mad and took you. This is his fault!" She yelled the last sentience. He had never seen her look so mad in her life. " This is all Merle's fault! He killed her and now he's making you leave me! I fucking hate him!" She screamed.

" Jillian, calm down." Daryl said as he started towards her.

" I'm going to fucking murder him!" She screamed a second before she took off running.

" Jillian!" Daryl yelled out.

As he started running after her, it pulled every one's attention to the couple. He was shocked that she was moving so fast. As he ran he slipped his cross bow over his back. Dale, Andrea and Glenn started chasing after them. They were yelling, asking him what was happening. Jillian was screaming that she hated him and crying as she ran. Everything was his fault and she was going to fix it.

Jillian burst into the barn, taking Shane and Rick by surprise. Her face was tear stained and dark. Her eyes were narrowed and she was glaring at Merle. She stalked up to where he was sitting on the floor. Daryl, Andrea, Dale, and Glenn appeared at the doorway when she finally reached him. Everyone was on edge and tense.

" You caused my sister's death." She said.

" Jillian..." Merle started.

Jillian balled her hand into a fist and drilled him hard in the mouth. Rick and Daryl rushed to her. Rick grabbed her by the waist as she fought and kicked him. She was screaming at Merle. Rick picked her up and handed her off to Daryl who threw her over his shoulder and started out of the barn. Jillian pushed herself up so she could see Merle better.

" I'll fucking kill you!" She screamed as she fought against Daryl.

He didn't stop walking, passing everyone and ignoring their panicked looked. His woman was falling apart at the seams and he needed to take care of her. He carried her to another barn, knowing he needed to do some thing major to get her attention. He stalked across the field with her screaming and kicking the whole way. He heard Carol calling out as she followed after them. Jillian was cursing and threatening Merle.

The door to the barn Daryl needed was open. He walked in and over to the tub that was filled with water for the horses. The tub was big, big enough that Daryl could sit in it and have his legs straight out in front of him. It was deep enough that the edge would come to his neck if he was sitting. He stalked over to it, thankful it was filled with water. When he reached the edge of it, he dropped Jillian straight into the water.
