Well I think I made some people mad at me... well hope this helps :)

Enjoy!

The yells and grunts of pain continued for an hour before it was quiet again. Rick hadn't even seen Lori yet and at the moment he didn't exactly care. His closest friend other than Shane was in serious pain and danger. He just sat rocking back and forth. If she died what the hell was he gunna do with Beth and Daryl. It may have been seven years but Rick knew damn well that he was still in love with Jenna. He watched Daryl as he stood back away from Shane arms crossed and a look of worry and panic on his face.

" Rick!" Lori voice yelled out from outside. He sighed and got up.

" Anything changes you come and get me." He ordered Shane. He nodded and Rick left. He walked outside and all he saw was the look of anger and jealously on her face. He walked up to her and he decided to just hug her. She pushed him away. Something was very wrong with Lori lately and he didn't understand what he was doing wrong.

" Who's injured?" She asked already knowing the answer.

" Jenna." He answered stepping back. He was getting really tired of this act she was putting on.

" Why is she here?" She asked crossing her arms.

He just glared at his wife. " What did you want me to do Lori! Leave her to bleed out or be ripped apart!" He finally snapped at her. Rick never really snapped at Lori but she had gone to far. She just looked at him. " Jenna is my friend and I'm not ever leaving her to die! No matter how much you hate her I can't do that." he said.

" I don't know if this has occurred to you yet but I am your wife and she hit me and said awful things. You are supposed to support me!" She yelled back.

" Like you support me Lori?" he questioned her.

" How dare you. I always back you up!" She yelled.

" You know that isn't what I am talking about!" he yelled. " You think I don't know about you and Shane!" He said forgetting about Jenna for a moment.

Her anger turned to shame. " I …I thought to you were dead." She stuttered as she realized Shane was peering through the window at them.

" And I'm sure you had every right to believe that. Shane told you I was dead so you automatically sleep with him?" Rick said calmly in a sarcastic tone.

" Rick!" Shane called from the house.

Rick walked away from Lori who was giving him a death glare. He knew he would pay

for his comments later. He ignored this and walked in to find Hershel whipping blood off his hands. He looked happy and worried. His shirt was covered init and Rick had forgotten his was as well.

" I got most of the fragments out. There are a few still that I cannot reach. They aren't in a harmful place but she still has internal bleeding that I have to hope will stop." Hershel spoke looking at Rick and Shane. Daryl was still covered in the background. " She will be out cold for a while now but we have to make sure she doesn't move to radically yet." He stressed his sentence. " I'm going to let her rest now and you should as well." Hershel said and everyone looked at each other. Shane was first out the door. He stormed outside and walked off to God knows where. Rick couldn't leave Jenna alone.

" Go find Beth and bring here. I'll explain." Rick volunteered.

" No." Daryl argued.

" Daryl I have…"

" No" Daryl said. " I'll tell her. I would rather Beth hear it from me then a cop." Daryl said taking a step back.

Rick nodded. " I'll stay here." he said and Daryl nodded then left the house to find the little girl. He knew this wouldn't be easy and she would be deviated and angry but Rick was the one who saved Jenna so Daryl thought he should do him one favor.

" Beth!" Jenna seemed to call out as she as running through the forest. She had no idea this was a bad dream. Walkers were surrounding her. " Jenna!" She could hear Rick, Daryl, and Beth's voice call out for her. She was stuck she couldn't move. They were all around her. " Please God no!" She tried to defend herself. The walkers closed in and started attacking. They tore at her skin and bit at her arms and legs. She cried out in pain. She then saw the three come closer. Each one of them were one of those things. Rick was biting her neck, Daryl at her arms and Beth had climbed onto and started tearing at her stomach. " Stop!" She called out in pain. It felt so real, radiating waves of pain all over her body. She then could see herself turning. Her eyes had glazed over and she was stumbling next to Beth. Lori then came running and started shooting at Beth. Jenna tried to help but she just wanted to tear into her. " Should have stayed away." Lori said and the a shot ran out and her lifeless body fell to the ground.

She awoke with a gasp. She was breathing heavily and her body was in intense pain. " ah." She cried quietly. The room was dark except for a small lamp beside her bed lighting the room enough to know she wasn't alone.

" Jenna?" Rick's tired and worried voice said. She kept blinking. She couldn't believe she was alive.

" What… What…what happened." She said quietly.

" Two men at the bar where you and Hershel ran off too didn't like the fact we wouldn't bring them back here." Rick said. " I should have just shot them." he said looking down. She placed a hand on his hand that was resting on the bed just next to her.

" No, … Not.. Your… Not your fault." She said quieter. He smiled a bit but that image faded as her eyes closed again.

Jenna's eyes may have been closed but she could still hear who was around and what they were saying.

" Cowboy said your gunna be alright. So you wake up soon." She heard Beth's scared voice.

" I never meant for things to get this out of hand. I no longer care about Lori." Shane said. " I just want you to be alright and safe." Shane said and Jenna couldn't help but feel like she should worry about his presence.

" I have no idea what has gotten into Lori lately. She really wants you gone. But trust me I'll keep you and Beth safe. You don't ever have to leave." Rick said. " Friends look out for each other and I am so sorry this all happened." He said. Jenna could feel her heart beat with sadness. She knew Rick was just adding to the guilt that didn't need to be there. Nothing was his fault. Lori and Shane even she didn't make situations better.

When Rick left she heard nothing but quiet whispers from outside the door. She could have sworn she heard Rick trying to convince Daryl to talk to her. Then the door opened and she could feel her heart race and then she could feel someone sit next to her. She knew it was Daryl.

Daryl had just sat next to Jenna. She looked so tired and pale. He suddenly remembered the first night he had spent with her. She had fixed him and he never paid her back for that. No he left her instead. He couldn't even look at her with out feeling guilty.

" Look I'm sorry alright?" he said to her waiting for her to say something but he knew she wouldn't.

Jenna's heart slowed and she could finally see. She could see him next to her. Her eyes weren't completely open and he wasn't looking at her so it didn't matter.

" I know I messed up. I get it now. Look I really thought that leaving would keep Merle away. And it did but that didn't stop the fact that I hurt you and Beth." Daryl said putting his hands on the bed next to hers. He didn't have to nerve to reach out and touch her yet. " I loved… love you so much I didn't want anything bad to happen to you. And knowing that I was the problem was killin me!" He said looking down. " What was I supposed…"

He stopped when he felt the soft touch of her finger inching toward his hand. Her eyes were closed but she could still see him looking at her. She knew that was as close as an apology Daryl would get. She knew it. Jenna knew there was a reason. If only he would have just talked to her.

" That means you can hear me." He said quietly. " Alright then hear me when I say I swear to God I'll make up for that. I don't know how but I will." He said quietly.

She just kept her hand on his. He didn't need to say anything else. He got up and walked out of the room. He walked straight out of the house. He couldn't decide to be happy or angry. He knew Shane would have a say in what ever Jenna did when she woke up and Daryl didn't like that. He walked past the whole group and they all looked at his conflicted face. Carol sighed and didn't know whether to follow or give him space.

" No!" Jenna screamed as she was running away from David and Tony. They wanted her and she couldn't run fast enough. " Stay away." She said as they tackled her. Her eyes then shot open completely breathing harder.

" Jenna?" Rick's voice said from beside her. She slowly turned her head. She really thought she was dreaming again. She let out a big breath of relief when she saw him.

" Rick." She smiled. " Thank God." She said.

" Expecting someone else?" he asked leaning in closer with a happy smile.
