After breakfast Daryl and Jillian decided to go back to their room. Daryl and Rick had spent a lot of time talking quietly together so Jillian took the time to talk with Glen. He was still pretty upset about Jocelyn. He kept telling Jillian how sorry he was for not watching out, not being more alert. Jillian had to get stern with him and tell him to stop feeling bad for himself. He had barely known Jocelyn and it wasn't his fault.

Jillian was sitting indian style on the bed while she watched Daryl putting their stuff into their bags. He had taken out their soap and things from the bathroom and packed them away. She had asked him what he was doing but he had just said he was trying to be prepared for anything, even if that meant they had to make a quick get away.

" I don't like the way that chinaman looks at you." Daryl said with a frown.

" It's only because I look so much like her." Jillian said. " He blames himself for what happen."

" Don't you?" Daryl asked as he came to her. He flopped down on the bed beside her.

" I don't know. I don't want to think about who's fault it is. It doesn't matter, she is gone now. I don't want to spend my time tossing the blame around." She said.

" So how do you want to spend your time?" He asked with a smirk.

Jillian grinded her hips against his as they made out again. He was laying over her, one hand on her neck, the other on her hip. He wanted to get her out of her jeans but was stopping himself so he could enjoy kissing her. He knew she wanted him as badly as he wanted her and that made him feel amazing. He had never had someone who cared so much about him. Suddenly the air stopped flowing through their room. Jillian opened her eyes and put her hand on his chest to push him away.

" What?" He asked as he looked at her face.

" The air has stopped." She said. Daryl looked up as the lights flickered.

Everyone was so wrapped up in watching the screen with the doctor that they didn't notice that Rick and Daryl had stepped out of the room and were gone for a while. When they rejoined their group, Daryl came to her and lightly touched her back. She looked at him then turned towards him. She put her arms around his waist and rested her head against his chest as the doctor talked.

When it became clear that the doctor was telling them they were going to die at the CDC, everyone starting panicking and crying. Daryl grabbed Jillian's hand and pulled her to the closed door where Shane and Rick stood. He pushed Jillian back so he won't hit her when he started hitting the door with his ax. She held her tears in check as Daryl, Shane, and Rick started working on the door.

Once the doctor finally opened the doors, everyone saw their bags laying in the hallway. Daryl grabbed their bags then Jillian's hand before they started running through the hallway. They reached the main level of the CDC only to find out the doors there were locked as well. After a few tries at hitting the windows Carol stepped forth and gave Rick a grenade she had found in his clothes. Everyone took cover as he pulled the tab. Jillian was behind a table when Daryl ran over to her. She had finally started to cry but he grabbed her face in his hands and made her look at him.

" Look at me!" He said quickly. " I ain't gonna let you die here, ya hear me! I didn't go through all this shit just to lose you now!" Jillian took a hold of his wrists. " We are gettin out of here now duck!" He yelled.

Once the grenade went off, they tore outside to his truck. Everyone was running to their cars, knowing they only had a few moments to spare. Daryl and Jillian tossed their bags into the back of the truck before getting into the cab. Daryl pushed her to the floor boards and got on top of her. Jillian was on her hands and knees, facing his legs. She wrapped her arms around them and buried her face into him. She closed her eyes as the CDC exploded. An after shock hit the truck and rocked it slightly. When he was sure it was safe, Daryl got off her and helped her to sit on the seat. Jillian turned to see the building burning. He wrapped his arms around her shoulders from behind.

" How did you know?" She asked.

" I didn't. Rick came to me and told me he thought sumthin weird was goin on with the doctor. After the lights and shit went, we went into every one's rooms and packed up their shit." Daryl said.

" What's going to happen to us?" She asked.

" I can't say." He let her go and sighed as he moved to the driver's side of his truck. He started it up and she looked at him. " What happens from here on out, it happens to the both of us." He said as he looked at her. " We stay with the group or we leave them, I don't care. I just want you by my side, the rest we will figure out as we go. That's all I can offer you right now." She nodded.

" Promise?" She asked. He nodded.

" Promise." She smiled slightly and moved over to him.

" Let's go and see what the world has for us." She said.
