Somebody To Die For
Chapter 11
Carl glared at Lori. "For the hundredth time, you don't get to tell me what to do anymore," he said firmly. "I'll do it if I want to, and yes, I do want to."
Lori fell silent as he said that and pressed her lips together as the others all headed outside in the garden to practice.
"I'm proud of you, Carl," Anna said as she worked on her aim with her sword, trying to keep it balanced. "Don't let her tell you what to do."
"I won't, thanks mom." He said as he practiced with his knife.
Carol and Andrea were helping Sophia and Penny with their knives, although they barely even seemed to need the training. Duane had been given a poker by his father, and was trying to work on swinging it, thanks to its heavy weight.
"We got some pretty skilled kids here, eh Rick?" Morgan asked with a small chuckle.
"You're telling me, next thing we'll know is that Aoife knows how to shoot a gun." Rick laughed as he watched Bailey practice with her scythe.
"WALKERS, WALKERS!" Merle yelled at them.
"Alright guys, let's get some practice in," Rick said as he headed over to the walkers with his weapon aimed, as everyone else followed behind him.
The group took their combat stance, but this horde was trickier than any other they had encountered; their helmets went down almost to their shoulders, and their faces were protected by masks. The one bolt Daryl shot bounced easily off the walker's facemask and fell to the ground.
"Fuck." He said taking out his knife.
Everyone took their weapons out and started to kill the walkers with their hand weapons, trying to hit under the masks.
"Who were these walkers?" Anna asked. "You think they're the army? Where did they get all this gear?"
"I have no idea, but we're going to have to be careful." Rick said when they heard Lori screaming in the kitchen as walkers broke through the thin gate.
"HELP, SOMEONE HELP ME!" She screamed and Bailey gave Aoife to Hershel as she, Anna and Beth took out the walkers
"BAILEY BEHIND YOU!" Penny screamed as she charged at the walker and slammed her knife into the walker's head, killing it.
"SHIT, DAD, MOM!" Carl yelled running over to help them.
"Carl, watch your back!" Rick yelled back, as he covered his son, while he came over to him.
"We need to get to Lori," Anna said, as much as it pained her to say. "The baby might be in danger."
Rick nodded at her as they all moved back to the house and managed to get into the kitchen as a walker grabbed her by the hair.
"Oh shit." She said trying not to panic.
"Mom, I got your back," Carl said as he walked over towards her and distracted the walker, shoving his knife through its skull.
"What do we do, Rick?" Glenn asked worriedly. "Can we take them all out?"
"We'll have to leave, get all of our and leave through the front door." He told them all as everyone grabbed their things and moved towards the back door with Charlie in the front as they all ran to the cars.
They all climbed into their cars and started to pull away from the building. "Five hours," Bailey said tiredly. "We were there for five damn hours."
Daryl rubbed her hand gently to try and soothe her. "At least we go to try out the shower," he said with a smirk.
Bailey laughed at that as they followed Rick and Anna who were driving in front of them as they pulled up and they all got out with Aoife staying with Beth and Merle who kept watch with their weapons poised.
Rick had a map spread out for all of them as they tried to find a place to stay.
"This looks like something here," Rick said squinting, as he leaned down closer to inspect the map. Anything with a roof and some beds wood is good right around now, it was starting to become dusk already, and they hadn't even had the chance to stay one night in their new place before walkers had invaded. "I don't think it's anything too big, maybe some sort of small cottage or a hunting cabin of sorts," he said, as he looked around the map for water. "And it's free from streams and lakes too, which is good if it starts to rain again."
"Can we just get in the damn cars and look for somewhere, Rick?" Lori asked with an exaggerated sigh. She placed a hand on her back and stretched. "This baby is killing me, I just need to find a place to lie down and put my feet up," she added.
"Is that all ya ever do?" Merle asked, as he glared at Lori. She wasn't the leader's wife anymore; no one gave a shit what she had to say. Then again, Merle never really did in the first place anyway.
"We'll check out the cabins, its five miles from here." Rick told them all and they all nodded and got into their cars and drove to the cabins.
"I hope it isn't crawling with walkers." Bailey said as they drove to the cabins as it started to get windy outside.
"It's probably hidden from view." Daryl said as they drove.
The drive lasted around a half hour as they all pulled up at what looked to be some kind of hunting cabin. It wasn't the biggest of places that they had ever seen, but they knew the drill by now. They would stay here until they could find something more permanent. Maybe one day they would actually find a place that could be a proper home. Everyone took their bags out of the cars, although none of them really bothered to unpack anymore, knowing they didn't stick around one place for too long.
"I guess it will do for a couple of nights at least," Rick said as he looked around. "Maybe Daryl and I can go out and search the area, see if we can find anything bigger, anything more secure."
They all nodded and started to look around their surroundings as Rick and Daryl headed outside when Lori looked at Anna.
"He doesn't love you, not like he loved me." She told her confidently and Anna tried to keep calm as she looked at Lori.
"I know he loves me and I love him." Anna said honestly when Lori sneered at her with a cruel look on her face.
"Why should he you're just a distraction for him? He feels sorry for you Anna because of what you're brother did to you." She said harshly and Anna couldn't take anymore.
She had to get out of here for a while.
Anna huffed as she picked up her knife and her car keys, and sneaked out of the cabin, going to her car. She would get away before anyone noticed that she was gone, hopefully. She just needed some time to think, some time away from everyone.
Everyone else was settling into the cabin, looking for a place to put their stuff. There was a small fireplace that probably wouldn't provide a hell of a lot of heat, but it was better than having nothing. Phillip went out the back and found some wood for the fire, as he tried to create a spark to get it going. T-Dog had found a stove in the kitchen which he had claimed as his own, since he was the 'professional chef' of the group. Although, to be truthful, everyone else would have preferred the women's cooking, not to mention, T-Dog used up unnecessary supplies.
Lori sat herself down on the sofa, spreading out so no one else could get onto it, as she made herself at home. She had gotten rid of Anna, hopefully something would happen when she was out and she wouldn't arrive back anytime soon.
Bailey and Beth had found some tins of canned chicken, tuna and rice as they headed into the living room when they saw that Anna was gone.
"Anna?" Bailey called out as she and Beth placed the tins down and started to look around for her when the others came in.
"Mom?" Carl called out as he ignored Lori who was lying on the sofa watching everyone with a bored look on her face.
"She's gone out," Lori said disinterestedly as everyone else looked around for Anna. Hopefully she was being mauled by walkers as they speak. Lori couldn't stand her, as soon as she had slept with Rick; she had been getting special treatment. That should have been her, and it still would have been if Anna hadn't stuck her nose in the first place.
"What do you mean she's gone out?" Bailey asked, as she stared at Lori. There was something odd about Lori's expression, and Bailey had a feeling she had something to do with it. "She's gone out where? What did you do, Lori?"
"I told her the truth that's what I did, isn't it T-Dog?" She asked him as he came into the living room.
"You did, she had to know what we all really thought of her." He said wiping his hands on a cloth as the others came in.
"What did you say to my mom?" Carl asked worried.
Lori shrugged. "That your father doesn't love her like he loved me," she repeated. "Not to mention she's a distraction to him when he should be focusing on keeping the group safe. Keeping me safe," she added, as she rubbed her stomach. What she wouldn't give to have some power over the group again. "This could be his baby that I'm carrying after all."
"You are unbelievable, you know that?" Bailey said, as she shook her head. Lori just didn't seem to give up, she wished there was an off button that she could press on her somewhere to keep her quiet.
"It can't be yours, you and Shane slept together long before Rick came to the quarry." Carol said angry that Lori had made Anna leave.
"That's not true." Lori insisted as Daryl and Rick came back, carrying a large deer for their dinner tonight when Rick saw that Anna was nowhere in sight.
"Where's Anna?"
"She's gone out," Bailey explained to him quietly, hoping he wasn't going to do something harsh with Lori. She didn't like the woman, but she had an innocent child in her stomach, and it might be the last child they would see around for a while, she didn't want something to happen to it. It had happened to her with Celia, and it wasn't something she would wish on anyone, not even on Lori, and not even on her worst enemy. "Lori said something to her and she left, her car is gone. Don't waste time starting another fight with Lori, Rick, just go and find her," Bailey advised him.
Rick stared at her for a minute before nodding at her and hurried out of the room before he stopped and looked at Lori with hard, cold blue eyes.
"If anything happens or has happened to her Lori, I will make your life a living hell." He said harshly and hurried outside where they heard the car start and drive out.
Everyone sighed as they watched him go to try and find Anna. Bailey looked at Lori before she went to help T-Dog make the dinner. "You know, Lori, you're very lucky that Rick hasn't kicked you out of here already," she said with a sigh. "But after that baby is born, I have a feeling he's not going to be so easy on you. So you might want to stop with this shit."
Rick drove back along the road they had come on when they were looking for the hunting cabin. The other way was a dead-end, so he doubted she would have gone that way. He hated Lori and what she was doing to try and come between him and Anna, but he couldn't bring himself to be too harsh on her because of the goddamn baby. He sighed as he continued driving, looking for any sign of life, apart from the occasional walker stumbling around at the side of the road.
He kept on driving as he suddenly heard a gunshot from a house across the road and slammed on the wheel as he hoped to god it was Anna who had fired that shot.
He pulled up and sure enough, Anna was standing on the pavement across from him as she shot walkers with her gun and took out others with her sword.
"HERE I AM, C'MON TAKE ME!" She yelled shooting at them.
"Fuck," Rick mumbled as he parked up the car. What the hell was she trying to do? Get herself killed? He stormed out of the car, and went over to where she was, taking down the rest of the walkers with his knife, trying not to use his gun to attract anymore. Anna had stopped firing and was watching Rick with an unreadable expression on her face as he killed them off, watching as they fell to the ground. He took a deep breath once the last walker was gone, and walked towards her.
He wanted to pull her into him, hug her and tell her everything was OK, but to be perfectly honest, he was a little angry. Even if Lori had pushed her, she shouldn't have put herself in danger. "Anna, what the hell are you doing?! You could have been killed out here," he said as he put his knife away. "Did you think of what that would do to me? To Carl? You have a family now, we love you, and you can't run out on us like that!"
"You would all be better off without me. I can't be like Lori, Rick." She tried to explain to him and he held her tightly to him.
"I know you aren't, hell you aren't anything like her. You're smart, brave, loyal, kind and compassionate that's why I and Carl love you along with the rest of group." He said to her honestly as he held her.
"I'm nothing special." She said giving him a sad smile.
"You're special to me," Rick assured her as he kissed her head gently. He loved this woman, he had ever since High School, and if it hadn't been for the fact they had moved to live in different places, she would have probably been the one that he married. "You're special to Carl and to everyone else too," he assured her, as he walked her back to the car. "And someday, when we can find a proper place to stay, we're going to get married, and we're going to have lots of children," he promised her, and she gave him a small smile.
"Really?" she asked hopefully, imagining being Mrs Grimes, and their kids running around with Maggie's kids, maybe Beth's kids, hell, maybe even Andrea's kids. "I'd like that."
"So would I, you never know Daryl and Bailey might have kids." He said holding her hand as they drove back to the cabin.
"I'm sorry for running off like that." She said feeling guilty.
Rick gave her a small smile. He couldn't stay mad at her for long; he loved her too damn much. "Don't worry about it," he said softly. "Just... the next time Lori says something that upsets you, either come to me or one of your friends to talk about it, alright? Don't let anything she says get to you, she's not worth getting upset over, believe me."
Anna nodded as she sat back in her seat, looking out the window. She was keeping an eye out too for anywhere that might be a little better to stay in, especially seeing as how the hunting cabin was a little cramped, not to mention that it would be December soon, and it probably wouldn't be the warmest inside either.
"We'll be lucky if we have light snow." Rick said as they pulled up outside the cabin and got out as the door was flung open and Carl ran towards them.
Anna laughed as she hugged him and ruffled his hair lovingly, "Hey there kiddo."
"I'm glad dad found you." He said hugging her as the others came over to hug her and welcome her back warmly with the exception of T-Dog and Lori who glared at her.
"So you're still alive?"
Anna took a deep breath as she looked at the two of them. No more being weak. "Yes, I am still alive, and I'm afraid the two of you, or anyone else isn't going to get rid of me that easily," she said firmly, as she sat herself down on the sofa. "Your words aren't going to hurt me anymore, because I've realized I don't deserve them, and the only reason you do it, is because you aren't getting what you want. I'm not going to let people like you bring me down anymore," she finished, with one final look at Lori and T-Dog, before she turned to Rick and Carl. "Shall we have dinner?"
"We'd love to." Rick said smiling at her proudly as he took her arm in his and Carl walked beside them as they all sat in the cramped kitchen.
"Do you think we'll be able to stay here for the winter?" Carol asked as they ate the deer, it didn't taste right but they didn't complain.
"I doubt it," Rick said as he picked at his food. Whatever spices T-Dog had used weren't going down too great, but it was food, and they had to be grateful for what they had. "It's real small, and I think it could get pretty cold, especially if it starts to snow again," he said as he looked around. "Daryl and I are going to go out and look for somewhere else, see if we can find anything that's better."
"Maybe we can find an estate or a farm that's away from people and walkers." Daryl said as he too picked at his food, Aoife wasn't keen either but none the less ate it along with Bailey who rubbed his shoulder gently.
"So who's on watch?" T-Dog asked as he finished his food.
Rick thought about it for a minute. He hadn't figured out a watch schedule yet, or they hadn't even decided on a place they could take watch. The roof was on a slope, so they couldn't place chairs up there again. "We're not going to have a watch, we're going to have a patrol," he decided. "Merle and Morgan, you two first. Take a side of the house each and stand guard, make sure there's no trouble."
Merle and Morgan nodded as they finished their food and threw their plates into the sink. "I don' know what the hell yer restaurant customers used to eat," Merle grumbled as he walked past T-Dog. "But I sure as shit ain't eatin' yer food again."
"Fuck you Merle." T-Dog said annoyed as everyone went to clean up and secure the cabin as Bailey looked around the kitchen and saw that tins dates were off.
"T-Dog how old was that tin of rice?" She asked politely.
"Three months, it went past its use by date." He said flatly.
Bailey frowned as she looked at him. No wonder their food tasted off, even the spices T-Dog had put in couldn't hide it. What they didn't need was to be out sick for the next couple of days. There were too many problems, both dead and alive problems, for them to be out of action. "And you didn't think before you fed it to us, that you should have checked it was going to be alright first? You didn't think you should have maybe told us we were eating out of date food?"
"What do you think this is a five star hotel?" T-Dog spat at her, his eyes cold. "It's the end of the world; we eat what we can get. Stupid bitch."
Before Bailey could answer to that, Daryl slammed into him and started to beat him with his fists as the others hurried in looking alarmed.
"Don't ya ever fuckin call her a stupid bitch, you fuckin bastard!" Daryl snarled at him as he broke T-Dog's nose making him yell in pain.
"GET THE HELL OFF ME!"
Bailey watched wide eyed, as Daryl beat T-Dog. She felt like she should do something, but her feet had stuck to the ground, she hadn't been expecting that reaction that was for sure. Daryl was unbelievably protective, it felt nice to know that someone cared so much. When she finally snapped out of her thoughts, she bent down to gently pull Daryl away from a bloody looking T-Dog, and guided him out of the room, up into one of the bedrooms, where he could have some space to cool off.
"Daryl," she said softly, as she sat him down on the bed, and rubbed his arm gently, his chest heaving. "Are you OK?"
"I'm fuckin pissed that he called ya that." He said as he breathed harshly and looked over at where Aoife was asleep on the bed.
"Ya know yer aint a stupid bitch, right?" He asked pulling her into him as he kissed along her throat and pulse point.
Bailey sighed gently as Daryl's lips trailed over her skin. "Yeah, I know, I'm not going to let T-Dog get to me," she said as she rubbed his back gently. His muscles were tight and she worked to try and relieve some of the tension there. Daryl buried his face further into her, leaning into her touch. "You sure you're alright?" she asked, as she held him. "You seem stressed."
"I'm alright, worried about ya, Aoife, Rick, Anna, Carl and the others." He said kissing her hard on the mouth.
"How about I help you release that tension then, hmm?" She asked seductively.
"Please do darlin." He drawled huskily.
Bailey grinned up at him, as she looked at a sleeping Aoife. She took his hand as they stood up. "Come on, don't wanna wake our girl," she whispered as they made their way out of the bedroom, and headed downstairs to the bathroom. There was only one in the house, so they were going to have to be quick. She pulled him inside and locked the door behind her, feeling like a teenager sneaking around again.
"What if someone needs the bathroom?" Daryl asked with a smirk as he walked her over to the wall and leaned down to kiss her neck.
"Then they can wait," she said with a small laugh, as Daryl smiled against her skin. This was a side of her he liked that was for sure. "Let me take care of you, baby," she said as she unbuckled his belt and unzipped his jeans.
She cupped his hardened cock and stroked him a few times as he pulled at her hair tightly as she took him into her hot, little mouth and he groaned at the feeling.
"Fuck, oh shit Bailey." He panted as she took him in deeper and met his eyes evenly with her sparkling sky blue ones.
"Do you like that?" She asked him seductively.
"Ya got no fuckin' idea how much I like that," he panted as he rested his head back against the bathroom wall. His cheeks were flushed as she moved her mouth up and down, her tongue darting out occasionally to caress him.
"Fuck, yer an angel," he groaned as he placed his hands on her shoulders, gently guiding her as he thrust into her mouth. Fuck, he felt like he was in heaven right now, her mouth so sweet and wet as she took in all his length. He wasn't sure what he had done to deserve this, but it must have been something good, that was for sure.
Bailey kept her eyes locked on his face, watching to see that he was enjoying himself; the little grunting noises that he was making told him that he more than certainly did. She kept her mouth around him, sucking as hard as she could, as her hands ran down his sides, before she gently cupped his balls, applying a little pressure, as Daryl whimpered, unable to hold back much longer. His whole body felt like it was on fire as he came, and he let out a tremendous growl, that no doubt everyone in the cabin heard, as he exploded into her mouth, panting and moaning.
"Fuck, oh shit." He panted as he slumped against the wall and pulled Bailey against the wall as he kissed her hard on the mouth as he started unbuttoning her jeans.
"What are you doing?" She asked curious.
"Making ya feel good that's what." He said pulling her into him as he felt her wetness soak his fingers.
"I was doing this for you," she said with a smile, as she felt Daryl's fingers brush over her, and her body screamed at her not to let him stop.
"Are ya gonna stop me?" he smirked as he found her clit with his rough fingers and began to rub quickly.
Bailey felt the breath leave her body as she gasped for air, pushing her body further into him, as she buried her head against his chest. "Jesus, Daryl, no, please don't stop, please," she moaned, as her chest began to heave up and down.
"Yeah, ya like that don't ya?" Daryl whispered as he bit down gently on her neck.
"Yes, I like it very much." She whispered as she rocked her hips against the pace of his rough fingers that lightly pressed against her swollen, engorged nub.
"Ya like me finger fuckin ya, don't ya?" He growled as she moaned against his lips heavily as she felt her body ache.
"Fuck me Daryl, please." She begged him.
"Yes, ma'am," Daryl smirked, as he pulled his fingers away and licked them clean. His cock was already hard again, so he didn't have to wait around. He pulled her over to where the bathroom sink was and slid the jeans the rest of the way down her legs, before turning her around and bending her over the sink. He looked at her in the mirror where she met his eyes. "I'm gonna fuck ya so hard, ya ain't gonna be able to walk properly for days," he whispered, and she pushed herself back into him, desperate with need.
With one hard thrust, Daryl was inside her, and wasted no time, before he went straight into a harsh rhythm. She was moaning within seconds as Daryl pounded himself into her, gripping onto her waist tightly. Her legs were shaking so hard she could barely stand upright, but she had never felt anything so amazing in her whole entire life. She held onto the edge of the sink tightly as she watched Daryl's face, his features twisted in pleasure, as his hair stuck to his sweaty forehead. By now the whole cabin had probably worked out what was going on in the bathroom, but she couldn't help her moans as they continued to get louder.
Daryl reached around with one hand and found her clit again, going back to rubbing furiously, as his hips slammed forward into her. He felt Bailey tense up, before she let out a cry as her mind blowing orgasm hit her, she had never felt anything more powerful before. "DARYL... YES!" she yelled out, as her muscles contracted violently around him. He leaned forwards, holding onto her tightly, and bit down roughly into her neck as he too came, spilling himself inside her, as they both collapsed to the floor.
He pulled her into him as she lay against his chest, her hair fanned across like a dark halo as neither of them moved for a while.
"I love ya, woman." He said kissing her softly.
"I love you too," she whispered breathlessly as she trailed small circles over his chest with her fingers. "Feel better now?" she asked. She wasn't sure about him, but goddamn, that had relieved about a years worth of stress for her.
Daryl chuckled as he kissed all over his face. "I sure do, but don't feel like ya need to wait until I'm stressed before we do that again," he said with a small laugh. "Although I'm pretty sure we're going to have some teasin' to deal with when we leave the bathroom," he added smirking. "Would be surprised if the whole country hadn't heard that."
"I can deal with it." She said with a warm smile and a laugh as they got dressed and headed out of the bathroom where they saw the others smirking at them.
"Someone had fun." Maggie teased.
Bailey laughed as they sat down on the sofa and she buried her head into Daryl's chest. "Oh yeah, we had fun alright."
T-Dog was glaring at them with an ice pack over his black eye. "Don't the two of you have anything better to be doing than fucking in the bathroom all goddamn afternoon? A bathroom, which may I add, all of us have to use!"
"Oh do shut up T-Dog, you're only pissed that you not getting any sex from anyone." Carol told him harshly.
"That's not true." He said firmly.
Everyone looked up confused. It wasn't Bailey, she was with Daryl. Anna was with Rick, Maggie was with Glenn, Beth was with Merle, Andrea was with Phillip and she was sure that it was neither Patricia nor Carol either. Bailey narrowed her eyes as she held Daryl's hand. "You have got to be kidding me..." It only left one person. "Now you're having sex with Lori too?!"
"Jesus Christ, she can't keep her legs shut." Daryl said disgusted at the thought.
"But she's pregnant?" Carl said confused and disgusted at the thought of T-Dog having sex with Lori while she was pregnant.
T-Dog shrugged and lounged back on the couch as if it was no big deal. He didn't really see the fuss anyway, it's not like Lori was married anymore. "The woman has needs too," he said simply.
Bailey made a face and raised her eyebrows half in shock, and half disgusted. "That was a disturbing imagine in my head I never want again," she said as she snuggled into Daryl.
"I think we should all go to bed." Hershel said and everyone nodded as they headed into their rooms with Rick holding Anna's hand when he smirked at Daryl.
"Don't do anything I won't do." Daryl said laughing.
Rick laughed. "Judging by the noise from you two earlier, I'm pretty sure we couldn't even match that," he smirked, as they walked into their room. "Goodnight, guys."
"Night Rick, night Anna," Bailey said softly, as she followed Daryl into their room and they got changed for bed.
They pulled on their nightwear and got under the covers with Aoife cuddled into the two of them as they tried to get warm.
"She's growing up so fast," Bailey said with a smile as she stroked Aoife's curls of hair. It hadn't been long ago when she was a tiny baby, but now she was getting much bigger, and she was starting to become aware of the things around her. "Our girl."
"She's gonna be big and bad soon," Daryl said with a small laugh as he stroked her stomach gently.
Bailey smiled at him lovingly but there was sadness in her eyes as she realised with a heavy heart that they would never have a baby of their own.
"I'm sorry." She said quietly.
"What for, darlin'?" Daryl asked softly as he wrapped his arms around her and Aoife and held them tightly.
"That I won't be able to give you kids, or give you a big family," she said sadly.
"That don't matter to me Bailey, I've got ya and Aoife." He comforted her and she let loose a few tears of sorrow.
"I always wanted a big family." She said tracing Aoife's hand along with his.
Daryl buried his face into her hair. Dave had ruined her life, and he cursed himself for not telling her how he felt about her sooner. Maybe they could have avoided all of this, and she would have been happy. "I know, sweetheart," he said softly, as he rubbed soothing circles on her back. "But it ain't yer fault what happened."
"I know. I love you and Aoife so much." She said curling into him as she fell asleep with Daryl watching over her and Aoife.
Anna awoke the next morning with Rick's arm around her, feeling warm and sweaty. She shifted around to try and get more comfortable, before she felt her stomach turn. "Oh hell no, I gotta vomit," she groaned as she sat up in bed, and ran downstairs for the toilet. When she got there though, apparently there was a queue. Glenn and Morgan were both standing outside the bathroom clutching their stomachs. "I need in there!"
"Not before I do," Glenn groaned as he coughed slightly and covered his mouth. "Plus, Beth's been in there for the last twenty minutes at least."
"Then I gotta go outside," Anna said, as she took off out the door.
She ran outside on a spot of grass and vomited the food from last night as she clutched her stomach in pain and went back inside where she sagged on a sofa, groaning in pain.
"Anna, are you alright?" It was Rick.
She flopped back wiping her forehead covered in sweat. "Define alright," she mumbled, as Rick got a damp cloth and began to wipe her face gently. Rick seemed fine, but Glenn, Morgan and Beth who were hogging the bathroom did not, so she knew it wasn't just her. "I don't think dinner last night did any good to my stomach," she said with a slight wince as she moved around.
Rick chuckled quietly. "Ah yes, T-Dog's specialty... out of date rice."
"I shouldn't have eaten it." She groaned as Bailey, Aoife and Daryl came down looking fine as they saw how ill some of their friends were.
"What's going on?" She asked as she grabbed a bucket and put it in front of Beth who puked up the food.
"Well... turns out that rice that we ate," Anna began to explain, before she felt another need to vomit. She stopped for a minute, taking a deep breath, and taking a sip out of the glass of water that Rick had brought for her. "I think we got food poisoning."
"But we all ate it," Beth groaned, as she looked at some of the group who seemed fine, while they suffered. "How come they aren't sick?"
Daryl couldn't help but smirk a little. "Clearly some of us have got stronger stomachs," he said with a quiet chuckle, and Anna and Beth both sent him a death glare.
"What's going on?" Lori asked as she came in and was about to get onto the sofa when Carol stopped her.
"You're helping us look after the others." She said firmly as everyone helped look after their sick family members with Penny getting glasses of water with Sophia.
Bailey and Hershel had been put on the main duties of distributing medicine and making sure everyone was comfortable enough, since they had both worked within a medical field. Bailey wiped Anna's forehead gently with a cloth, as she gave her some antibiotics which would hopefully help flush everything bad out of her stomach, and return her to normal. "Thank you," Anna said with a small smile, "It's great to have you helping out."
Bailey gave her arm a gentle rub. "I'm just glad Daryl's not sick," she said with a small laugh as she watched him over her shoulder trying to look after Merle who was protesting. "I think he would have been a more awkward patient."
"I think he would have complained and said he was fine." Anna said laughing as Carl sat next to her and she rubbed his back gently.
Lori was cooking lunch which consisted of tomato soup and some onions with Carol and Maggie.
Bailey looked up at Lori in shock, unable to believe that she was actually doing something productive for the group. Either she didn't want sick people making her lunch for her, or she was feeling guilty because her new fuck buddy had more or less given food poisoning to half the group. Bailey nudged Anna's arm gently. "Would you look at that? Lori is actually capable of getting up off her ass."
That made Anna chuckle. "I never thought I would have seen the day."
Bailey laughed as it was decided that Daryl and her would go on a supply run and they got on his bike as they went into the local town.
"I can try something out with ya while we're here." Daryl said smirking.
Bailey tilted her head to the side and looked at him with curious eyes. "Oh? And what might that be then?" she chuckled.
"Can't tell ya, it's a surprise." He said smirking as they parked the bike into one of the stores and went into the local pharmacy.
Bailey looked around, trying to see if there were any medicines left that would take away their patients fevers, and bring their temperature back down. She picked up a few Anti-Sickness tablets too, hopefully to try and ease off the vomiting they were experiencing. She picked up some other various items scattered around that might be of use to them. "Find anything useful?" she asked as she looked at Daryl.
"Yeah, I found some bandages and a first aid kit." He said proudly as they heard it start to rain outside as they hurried out.
Bailey looked up at the sky and sighed as it started to rain down on them again. At least the cabin wasn't near any bodies of water that could flood them this time. She put everything into her bag to stop it getting wet. "We should get back before the rain gets too heavy," she said as she looked at Daryl. "And we can get the medicine back to the others."
"Not quite," Daryl said as he tugged gently on her hand. "There's one more place we gotta go."
Daryl stopped by the door and held it open as Bailey stepped in.
Bailey gasped when her flashlight hit a shelf full of vibrators, "Huh….Daryl what kind of store is this?"
Bailey didn't really have to question it, she could automatically tell. At least one good thing was the shop hadn't been looted already, not many people would have use for this kind of stuff at the end of the world. She shook her head as she looked at Daryl. "You brought me into a sex shop, didn't you?"
Daryl shrugged. "I thought we could have a little fun," he said with a hopeful grin, as she browsed the shelves, which went from costumes to toys, to various other things that she could only imagine what the hell they were used for.
Bailey snorted out a laugh. "You know we can't stay here, right?" she asked, remembering there were people back at the cabin waiting on them coming back. She noticed Daryl's small pout and couldn't help but laugh. "But why don't we take some of this back with us?" she suggested as she started to stuff some things into her bag. "Tell you what... I'll make you a deal. If we take some stuff from here and go home now... you can choose the outfit."
Daryl smirked at her, "Deal." He said taking a small bottle of scented oil and smiled as he picked out a black lace, baby doll nightgown.
Bailey took a vibrator and some other things as they headed back to where the bike was and got on as they drove back to the house.
Daryl parked up the bike outside their house as Bailey took the bags inside and set them down in the sitting room where Anna and Beth were both lying on a sofa looking pale. She went into the kitchen to get some water before she administered the medication. She poured a glass and went back through to the living room, taking a sip before spraying it out again when she saw Rick holding the vibrator in his hands, a shocked expression on his face. No! Rick wasn't supposed to look in the bags.
He'd seen her come in, and even Anna and Beth were smiling now. "Um... Bailey?" he asked, holding it up.
"Forget you ever saw it, please Rick." Daryl said embarrassed.
Bailey laughed and put it back in the bag as they all laughed good naturedly and headed upstairs as everyone wanted to rest and have some peace.
"I can't believe Rick saw the stuff." She giggled as Daryl pulled her into him.
"Naughty girl," he said with a smirk, as he went into their bags and pulled out the nightgown. "Why don't ya go and get changed for me?" he asked as he kissed her passionately, his hand snaking into her hair. Fuck, he could feel himself get hard at just the thought of her in it.
"Yes, sir." She teased as they heard Aoife snuffle lightly in the room as she headed inside to get changed and pulled on the matching underwear as well as black high heels, stockings and some plum lip gloss.
"Please god, let him like this." She prayed.
