Decision...

The next morning Michonne woke up on a bed, not knowing where she was. Feeling slightly sick and her head still thumping she sees someone sitting on the side of the bed next to her.

"...Daryl"

"Maggie helped me carry you home last night" She laid her head back down on the pillow.

"You still love him?" He asked.

"I don't know" He grew frustrated with her actions over the past couple of days. Since he has strong feelings for her but doesn't know if her feelings still lie with Rick.

"Do you like being treated this way?"

"Please not now" She put her hand over her forehead.

"Answer me" The angered tone in his voice and the expression on his face scared her.

"...No, but you have to understand where I'm coming from. I gave him every part of me" He didn't want to hear any excuses.

"I'm not gonna let you hurt yourself over him anymore. Don't understand how you're still in love with someone who treats you like property "He got off the bed and gathered some arrows.

"I'm not Rick. We're two different men. I know I can't do the things he does for you"

"Daryl" He stopped and looked at her.

"Do you want a relationship with me?"

"Yeah" He walked away. She's still needed some time to sort out her feelings.

After relaxing for an hour Michonne went back over to Rick's house to pack up her clothes. She told him she planned on living by herself now. Anything she did from now on was none of his business anymore. Afterwards she stared at her sword over the fireplace, reminiscing about everything that has happened up until now.

Rick walked into the living room and saw a bag in her hand. His presence goes unknown as he walked behind her.

"We need to talk" She didn't respond.

"Michonne..." He said softly. She turned around to face him.

"Fine but I don't wanna argue" She's still a little hung over from last night.

When the sun set Rick took Michonne to a big tree a few feet away from the gates. They both sit down but she leaned her head back against the tree and closed her eyes, hoping this little talk doesn't turn into an argument.

"I miss you" Rick said, rubbing her leg. She opened her eyes. He was going to say something else but she cuts him off.

"Don't say anything, just listen to me" She doesn't look at him.

"You take me in, clean me up, we open up to each other, we sleep together, and I bond with your kids. That sounds like a relationship to me. You had my back when everyone didn't trust me, I was the one who told you where Maggie and Glenn were being held, I was the one who came to your aid when the governor had you on the ground half dead" The expression on his face changed.

"When the prison fell, I spent the whole time trying to find survivors. The whole time I thought you were dead; you don't know how many tears I've shed during that time before I found you and Carl at that house. I felt my heat beat again, knowing you were still alive. I was the one who nursed you back to health. The whole time we were out on the road I wanted a better place for everyone to feel safe. I never knew it meant losing someone I cared about, someone I spent all of my time and energy on. Coming here you made me believe we would be together, much happier then what we were out there. Then she comes along..." He looks at her but she continued to look straight.

"I think your feelings are based on you wanting to help her, not because you love her. You can't help someone who doesn't want it. But I know why now, it's because she's your blonde hair, blue eyed princess" He held her hand close to his mouth and kisses her palm, working his way up and kissing each one of her fingers.

"No..." He kissed the back of her hand.

"You're my queen" He kissed her ring finger. Feeling herself slip back into old feelings she pulls her hand away from him.

"Then answer this, If this place falls" She sat up and looked directly at him.

"Are you gonna bring her with us?" He's unsure about that but didn't answer her fast enough. His silence answered her question.

"You made your choice" She stands up and started walking away from him.

"Michonne" She stopped.

"Do you want things to go back to the way they were, before we came here?" He asked. She didn't turn around.

"No... Who knows how long you would have strung me along" She continued to walk away, trying to keep her mind clear.

"You're the only women I'll ever love" Rick mumbled.

Rick was asleep in bed when he suddenly felt a heavy sensation on his lower body. A hand moved down his chest to his belt.

"I miss you" That whispery tone sounded familiar to him. Opening his eyes Michonne was on top of him, wearing her uniform.

"I miss your body" She unbuttoned her shirt and leaned her head back as he ran his hands up her back to unhooked her bra.

"I want you so bad..." He pulled her close and kissed her hip bone, working his way across her stomach, kissing the other one. He slowly started losing control.

"Tell me you want this" She moaned while unbuckling her belt. He laid her flat on the bed and climbed on top of her.

"I want you" She breathed heavily as he ran his hand up her leg to her inner thigh.

"Your mine" Rick said, unbuttoning her pants.

"I'm yours, nobody else's" She moaned louder as he pulled her pants off.

"Look at me" They look into each other's eyes. He finally had her back.

"I love you Michonne"

"I love you too" As they passionately kissed each other he placed his hand on her private area, and then suddenly heard another voice slowly getting louder.

"Rick wake up" He turned his head and saw Jessie lying next to him; it wasn't real.

"You were breathing funny" He sat up in bed, still sweating, confused about what he'd experienced.

"Gonna take a walk" Before walking out of the bedroom he heard Michonne's voice again.

"I love you Rick"

Daryl was in the garage fixing up some minor things on his motorcycle. He looked up and seen Michonne walk towards the garage with a bag in her hand.

"You alright" She sat on the bike, facing Daryl.

"Yeah" He stood in front of her. She leaned her head against his chest.

"Thank you"

"For what?" He already knew what; he just wanted to hear her say it. She intertwined her fingers with his, looking up at him.

"For opening my eyes" He kissed her forehead. She wrapped his arms around him.

"What do you want?" He embraced her in his arms.

"I want you to be happy" He caressed her back with his hand.

"What do you need from me?" He asked. She looked up at him, gazing into his eyes.

"...Protect me" He understood what she meant. She watched him close the garage doors and dim the lights.

The whole town was silent as Rick continued to walk around. He realized he wanted her back but didn't know what to do. Then he heard a sound coming from the garage. Standing a good distance away from the windows he saw Michonne sitting on Daryl's lap on his bike, with one hand inside her shirt and the other down her pants.

He got more angry hearing her moan and groan repeatedly as his hand went further down into her underwear. Even though he stood away from the windows he could still hear everything.

"Lay down on the bike" He patted the seat. Michonne got off his lap and laid flat on the seat of the bike. She tensed up as he ran his hands down her body.

"I ain't gonna hurt you, alright" She felt his hands go down her pants.

"Yeah, just relax" He kissed her stomach and pulled her pants off. She tried to control her breathing as he took her underwear off.

"Daryl…" He kissed her hip.

"Let me pleasure you this time" She moaned loudly as Daryl went further down.

Seeing him in between her legs was the last straw for Rick. He knew Daryl couldn't handle her for long. Only he knew where all of her pleasure spots were, which Daryl didn't hit any of them. At that moment he knew how to get her back.

"He'll never touch you again" Rick walked away, still hearing her moans echo through his ears.


Rick's not going to let her go that easily. Do you think Michonne is over Rick?
