Somebody To Die For
Chapter 32
Bailey smiled at him, as she got on her knees like he had asked and looked up at him. "What are we doing, Mr Dixon?"
"I'm fuckin' ya on my bike, that's what we're doing." He said running his finger through her soft, dark brown curls.
"That's one of my fantasies." She confessed blushing.
"We're gonna fulfil that fantasy then," he said softly. He kissed her hard on the lips, a sudden need overwhelming him. Soon, they had stripped out of the clothes they had just gotten back into, and Daryl's hands were back at her breasts, massaging them gently, rolling her nipples between his fingers. She moaned softly into his mouth, as he felt himself grow unbelievably hard again. He didn't know how she had such an effect on him, Christ; he could do this all day with her.
He picked her up and turned her around, pulling off her dress and panties exposing her beautiful, bare naked body for him to see, and bent her over the seat of the motorbike. He stood for a minute just taking in the view, everything was so damn beautiful, and it was all his. He loved Bailey more than he thought possible to ever love anything. He licked his lips as he looked at her, his hard length pressing against her ass. He unzipped his jeans and pulled them down his legs, taking away his boxers too, as he leaned forwards and placed quick kisses down her spine, making her shudder.
As Bailey lay across the seat she could feel Daryl's warm hands explore her hips and ass, rubbing the skin gently, making her push herself further back into him, craving his touch. She felt his hand slide between her legs from behind, gently beginning to rub her clit, before he used his knees, to gently nudge her legs apart. She grabbed onto the side of the bike, hoping her legs wouldn't give in completely and she would fall over.
She felt the tip of his erection barely brush against her and moaned, desperate to have him inside her, her body was squirming and aching with need. "Daryl... now... please." She thought she couldn't take much more of the teasing, before he thrust forward and pushed himself deep within her, quickly adding inch by inch. He started to pound into her, his hips slamming into her back as he fucked her hard and deep. They had made love slowly and all that earlier, now he just wanted to fuck her hard and make her feel good.
Bailey moaned as he took her as his own, arching her back into his body to meet his rough strokes, ensuring she could have every inch of him inside her.
Daryl suddenly paused and pulled out of her, making her grown, as he reached down for his jeans, to find the bike keys. "Yer gonna like this," he smirked, as he used the keys to turn on the engine, the bike roaring to life, before he slid back into her. Bailey thought she might explode as the bike began to vibrate underneath her quickly, majorly intensifying her pleasure.
As he fucked her from behind, over the side of the bike seat she could smell the leather and oil from the bike and feel the heat of the motorcycles engine as well as Daryl inside her. It was almost too good to take and she was whimpering in pleasure as they both neared their peak. Daryl groaned as his thrusts became harder, deeper and faster, his hands holding on tightly to her hips to keep her steady. He could tell she was getting close, but hell, he was too.
He couldn't hold off much longer, but lucky he didn't have to wait before he felt her muscles contracting and pulsating sending waves of sheer pleasure through her body, making her lose all control of her senses, the bike still vibrating underneath her. Just then at the peak of her orgasm, Daryl felt himself cum, and it set Bailey off again, so hard that she was crying out his name in pleasure, as Daryl's cock throbbed inside her, while he held onto her hips. He gasped in ecstasy as he emptied himself into her, and they both slumped over the warm bike, panting and shaking.
"Oh my god." Bailey said trying to catch her breath as she rested against Daryl's chest and he held her tightly to him as they held each other.
"I love you." She said kissing him.
"Love ya too," Daryl smiled, as he helped her back up onto the bike. "And I'm gonna make sure I fill all yer fantasies," he whispered as he kissed her softly. "But right now, we got lunch plans," he added, hoping Rick and Carol had gotten everything ready while they were away.
"Oh?" Bailey laughed as they both got dressed and drove back to the lake-house.
When Daryl pulled up the bike, instead of going inside, they walked towards the lake where Daryl smiled. Rick had gotten the boat out of the shed and it was ready to go, and Carol had left a picnic and a bottle of wine on it, like she had said she would. He owed them. He offered his hand. "Captain Dixon would like to take you out to the lake for lunch," he smirked.
Bailey stared at the boat then at the picnic and kissed him lovingly as she smiled at him happily; she dusted off her dress before taking his hand happily.
"I would be honoured, Captain Dixon." She said as he helped her get into the boat and he got in as well before they started to glide along the water.
"I feel like I'm in a fairytale." She said looking around in wonder.
Daryl smiled at her. "I still ain't completely sure how to sail this thing properly, so I hope ya can swim," he laughed, as he opened the bottle of wine and poured a glass for her, as they looked out over the lake and the mountains.
"It's so beautiful out here." She said as she sipped a glass of wine and he had some too as they watched the sun shine on them.
"Sure is," Daryl smiled, as he opened the picnic, and seen all the sandwiches, cakes, fruit, that had been packed. Christ, he really did owe Carol, big time. "This is what we needed," he said softly, feeling more relaxed than he had in years. "Some time away, just some time for us."
She smiled at him lovingly as they shared a cupcake and had some cherries, "I have to spoil Carol and the others for what they've done." She said fondly as she saw a graveyard next to the estate; it had two angel statues at either side.
They exchanged a look, and Daryl directed the boat over to the graveyard, where they both stepped out. "I wonder who was buried here." Bailey asked as they went inside. "Maybe family of people who lived on the estate?"
"Maybe." Daryl said as he helped her out and they cautiously went into the graveyard and saw graves of long dead people when they heard crying.
"Is that a baby?" She asked alarmed as they looked around and found a nursery filled with ten babies crying softly, the nursery was covered in blood and there were bodies every where.
"Oh god, Daryl, what are we supposed to do with them all?" she asked as she looked around. "We don't have enough formula and diapers for them all. Maggie and Beth just had the twins and Anna's having a baby and... Shit."
"Well we aint leaving them here." Daryl said trying to calm her down as one of the babies started to cough.
"We need to get them help," she said as she picked up the little boy and pat his back to try and stop his cough. "Let's take them back to the house, they're cold," she said as she grabbed the supplies that she could from the nursery.
They hurried back to the boat and placed the babies in as they sailed back to the house and reached the lake house where they got out and hurried to the estate.
"Hang on little man." She soothed as the baby coughed more.
Merle seen them coming and smiled. "You guys are back earl-.. Holy shit," he gasped when he seen all the children. "The hell?"
They bypassed him and hurried inside, taking the children to Hershel and Anna. "They need help, we found them abandoned in an old nursery."
Anna nodded and with Hershel's help settled them down as the babies stopped crying and calmed down quickly as everyone helped out.
"Two of them very ill." Hershel said worriedly.
"No wonder, if they've been out in the cold so long," Carol said concerned, as she got some spare clothes for the other children. "Who would have left them there? They couldn't have been there long, they would have starved to death."
"Maybe one of the groups that have children and then just dump them," Glenn suggested.
"That's terrible." Maggie said as she rocked Maria who cooed at her happily while Josh played with Dean, Aoife, Judith and Rayland on the floor.
"You two go enjoy ya holiday." Merle told them firmly.
"Ya sure ya don't need us to help ya out?" Daryl asked as they went over to say a quick hello to Aoife, Dean and Rayland.
"We're sure," Carol said with a nod. "Go on, outta here," she smirked.
They both laughed at that and walked back to the lake house, their hands interlaced as the sun shone brightly on them all.
"That was eventful." Bailey said smiling as they went inside.
Daryl laughed. "It sure was, ain't the kinda thing ya expect to find around much, that's for sure," he said softly.
She smiled at him softly as they sat out on the deck near the lake and she leaned into him as they simply held each other.
"I want to try for a baby."
Daryl looked down at her as he ran his fingers through her hair. "Ya know what Lily said," he said quietly. "What could happen...? I don't want to lose ya."
"I know you don't Daryl, I don't want to lose you but I want to try for another baby. Please, for me?" She asked cupping his face gently.
"Anythin' for ya," he said softly as he stroked her face. "It ain't exactly like we've been careful the last couple of days," he said with a sigh. "But ya gotta promise me... if it happens... yer ain't gonna do anythin' that puts ya in danger. We'll go back to the CDC for regular check-ups, we'll get all the equipment we need, and ya give birth there. I can't thank Hershel enough for what he's done for us, but I want the proper care for ya and the baby, and the doctors there can do that. That's my only condition."
"That's fair but I want the whole group there when I give birth Daryl, they're family to us." She said softly and he nodded as he went to put on some music and she smiled softly.
"Let me go and get changed." She said kissing him softly.
Daryl nodded and watched her go, as he lit some of the candles around the room, and set out some of the rose petals.
Bailey went into her bedroom, and looked through her bags for something to wear.
She had found a beautiful black dress with purple silk embroidered flowers on it and after having a shower; she pulled it on and made sure she looked alright before putting on some light make up, eyeliner and lip gloss.
She twisted her hair up into a messy bun and headed back to where Daryl.
Daryl looked up when he heard her come in, and felt his jaw drop open slightly as he walked over to her and put his hands on her waist. "Shit, yer beautiful," he whispered, as he leaned down to kiss her cheek.
"You don't look bad yourself, Daryl." She said kissing him lovingly on the lips as he pulled her into him hard but gently.
"We're gonna do this right." He said kissing her as he trailed his fingers up her bare leg.
She wrapped her arms around his waist and pushed herself into him, kissing him passionately. "You can do it whatever way you like," she whispered with a smirk.
He smirked at her and kissed her harder as he dragged her into the bedroom and they tumbled onto the bed as he licked his lips at seeing her long legs.
"I love you, Bailey," he said, as he climbed onto her lap, and his hands ran down her body, sliding her dress up, before he pulled her panties off, smiling as he seen her beautiful body underneath him. He slid a finger into her, finding her to be wet for him as she moaned softly. She began to grind her hips up into him, and Daryl hardened in an instant. "Ya got no fuckin' idea what ya do to me girl," he whispered, as he slid his fingers in and out slowly, making her squirm underneath him. "Can't get enough of ya, ain't ever gonna get enough of ya."
Bailey chuckled. "These have been a pretty great last couple of days." She and Daryl had barely been able to stay apart for more than an hour at a time, before ending up together like this again. Daryl groaned low in his throat, as he kissed at her neck, gently nibbling the skin there with his teeth that would leave just a small enough mark, to claim her as his. His mark on her body. He pulled his fingers out, and took off his jeans, as he looked up into her eyes. He reached around for her hand and he gently laced Bailey's hand in his own as he slid into her, groaning as he did, as her walls gripped him tightly.
"Christ, ya feel so good, Bailey." He growled thrusting into her in a slow and steady pace to begin with; her hips rising up to meet him when he pressed gently back into her. They held each other so close that it was almost like they were meshed into one being instead of two. Connected with their bodies, souls, and their hearts. "Ya alright there?"
"I'm more than alright, Daryl," she smiled, as she rocked her hips until he was buried deep inside her. "I'm very, very good." She moaned softly, as she wrapped those long, toned legs around him, tightening her grip and Daryl groaned as he felt her walls tighten around him. He began to thrust into her harder, and her hands gripped the edge of the bed for support. "Oh, god... Daryl..."
Daryl rested his weight on her slender frame as he nuzzled his face into her neck, making her body shudder when she felt his hot breath tickle her neck, and his stubble scratch against her skin. "Scream for me Bailey, scream for me. I want them to be able to hear ya miles away." He growled pounding into her. "Tell me how much ya love this. Ya like me fuckin' ya, don't ya?"
"YES! So much, Daryl," she panted as she gripped his hand tighter, feeling herself coming closer to the edge. "You feel amazing. Harder, please."
"That's right Bailey," he smirked as he pounded into her harder and she cried out his name, Daryl loved knowing he was the one making her feel good, as she buried her face into his neck and muffled the noises that she was making. The pleasure on her face, the whimpers and the cries from her lips, that was because of him. He leaned down and kissed between her breasts, before sucking a nipple into his mouth, her chest heaving.
She felt her body tighten, before her muscles contracted, and she came hard around him, before her body began shaking with aftershocks. Soon afterwards, he came inside her, growling her name and they collapsed against each other, staring dazed into each others' eyes.
"I love you, so very much." She said curling into him as they lay in each others arms; Daryl pulled her into him and smiled softly.
"I love ya." He said kissing her tenderly.
"I love you too, Daryl." Bailey said holding him tightly.
"What was your mom's name?" She asked softly.
"Peggy."
"If we have a little girl, would you like that in her name somewhere?" she asked softly. "Along with Essie?"
"I'd like that, thank ya." He said holding her close as they both slowly fell asleep.
Anna smiled at Rick as they woke up with James in between them. "How's baby?" he asked softly as he rubbed her stomach.
"He or she is fine but is kicking like hell." She said smiling as the baby kicked but then frowned when she felt another kick.
"Did you feel that?" She asked startled.
"Yeah, I did," Rick said with a frown. "Do you think... there's more than one of them in there?" he asked, a grin spreading across his face. "Three sets of twins being born into the family?"
Anna smiled widely at him. "It's possible, I guess."
"Hello babies." Rick said rubbing her stomach and Anna smiled at him happily as she kissed him and curled into him as they saw a flushed Carl come in with Judith who smiled happily.
"Come feel your baby brothers or sisters kick." Rick said smiling widely.
Carl and Judith looked at each other confused for a second, before they realized.
"Twins?" Carl asked with a wide grin, as they rushed over and placed their hands on Anna's stomach. "Wow, that's so cool!"
"You're telling us." Anna laughed as she felt the babies kick softly at their hands and smiled lovingly at her family.
"You're like the head of the family, you two are." Carl said happily.
"We all do our part, son," Rick assured him, as he pulled all his children into him, smiling as his two future children said hello, and they all relaxed as the Grimes family.
Bailey curled into Daryl as she suddenly felt a wave of nausea hit her and she ran into the bathroom to vomit.
She leaned against the toilet tiredly as Daryl knocked on the door gently and followed her in. "Hey, ya alright in here?"
"Not really, I don't feel well." She said splashing some water on her clammy face as Daryl helped her into bed and she slumped against him.
"Can I get ya anythin?" He asked softly.
She shook her head. "No, I'm good, I could just do with sleeping for another couple of hours," she said softly as she closed her eyes.
"Ya get some sleep baby, I love ya." Daryl said holding her tightly.
"I love you too," she said softly, as she drifted off, falling back into a peaceful dream.
Bailey woke up a few hours later feeling much more refreshed and better as she got up to cook Daryl breakfast.
She cooked some French toast and some pancakes and waffles with maple syrup, sugar and two cups of coffee.
She pulled her black kimono around her as she carried the tray into the room where Daryl was fast asleep.
She set the tray down on the table beside him and climbed back into bed, rolling over to cuddle into Daryl. "Breakfast is ready, baby."
Daryl woke up and smiled when he saw Bailey looking much better as she drank a cup of coffee as he tucked into the food happily.
"Thank ya, this is wonderful." He said kissing her.
"You're a wonderful man," she smiled, as she ran her fingers through his hair, and fed him a piece of pancake. "Should we go back to the house today?"
"Yeah, I miss the kids and everyone." He said holding her close as she curled into him and they finished eating their breakfast.
"You wanna get our stuff packed up, and I'll go wash up?" she smiled, as she gathered all of the plates together.
"Sounds good." He said as they both went to do their chores and tidied up the house and then she headed into the kitchen to wash the plates and sung softly as she finished washing up and looked at the piano before playing 'God Bless the Broken Road.'
She played with all of her heart and soul, her fingers lightly touching the keys as she played and Daryl watched her with a proud, loving smile.
Daryl came into the sitting room and stood behind her, rubbing her shoulders gently as she played. "You shoulda done that professionally you know."
Bailey laughed slightly as she stood up. "I'm not that good; playing was just a pass-time."
"I loved hearing ya play." He said holding her hand tightly as they walked back to the house and she smiled at him softly as they headed up to the gate and Andrea let them in.
"Did you two have fun?" She asked warmly.
Bailey smiled at her. "We did thank you, I've had the best birthday ever," she said softly. "How are things here? Has everything been OK?"
"Everything's been good; Anna and Rick are expecting twins." She said amused and both Daryl and Bailey grinned at that as they headed inside with their things.
"PA, MAMA!
Daryl and Bailey both smiled as they were met with Aoife, Dean and Rayland running towards them at full speed, before they launched themselves at them. Bailey laughed and hugged them all tightly. "Hey guys, you miss us?"
"Yes we did mama, Rayland was sad because he missed you both and Dean told him it was because you're having another baby." Aoife said softly.
"Dean Rick Merle Dixon!" Daryl yelled.
Dean looked nervous as his dad glared at him. "I'm sorry, daddy," he said quietly. "I thought that's what you and mama were doing."
Bailey smiled at him softly as she ruffled his hair. "Don't worry about it, kiddo."
"I know yer sorry but yer mama and I love ya'll very much." Daryl ruffling his hair and holding him close as they headed inside and Dean cuddled into him.
"Pa, can I go hunting with ya?" Dean asked hopeful.
"Ask yer mama," Daryl said as he smiled over at Bailey.
"Sure you can," Bailey said softly. "But you do what your father tells when you're out with him, alright?" she asked.
Dean nodded. "Course I will."
"That's a good boy." She said lovingly as she kissed him on the forehead and watched him leave with Daryl as she picked up Rayland and took Aoife's hand as they went to see Maggie and Beth who were both with their babies.
"Hey there." She said warmly.
"Hey, Bailey," Maggie said softly, as she looked up from Maria and Josh and smiled. Beth was fussing over Damien and Annette, and smiled up at her too.
"Anna's having twins too?" Bailey smiled as she stroked Rayland's hair. "Quite the miracle, eh?"
"Very, I feel so happy having these two little angels." Maggie said holding Maria who cooed as she fell asleep against her mother, Katy and Emma were fussing over Josh.
"How are you feeling?" Beth asked gently.
Maggie smiled at her. "I'm good. Just a little tired, twins are hard work, but I don't need to tell you that," she chuckled.
Beth nodded in agreement. "You sure don't."
Bailey smiled at them both warmly as she sat beside Carol who smiled at her warmly as she rocked Rayland to sleep and he was out in minutes.
"Thank you, for the picnic." She said hugging her.
"You guys deserved that," Carol said softly, as she hugged her back. "I'm just glad the two of you got things sorted out and had a good time."
Bailey smiled at her warmly before she felt nausea hit her and groaned in pain before rushing upstairs and vomiting in the bathroom.
"Mama?"
She turned to see Aoife staring at her worriedly. "Hey, sweetheart," she said as she stood up and flushed the toilet. "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine mama, are you alright?" Aoife asked softly and Bailey smiled softly at her as they headed downstairs and she fell asleep on one of the sofas.
Aoife sat down beside her and held her hand. "Aunt Carol? Mama was sick, is she alright?" she asked quietly.
Carol looked worriedly at Bailey and checked her forehead, she didn't have a fever but she did look pale and she had dark rings under her eyes.
"Is she alright?" Anna asked worried.
"Aoife said she was sick, but other than that she seems fine," Carol said confused as she gave Aoife a reassuring smile. "Your mom is going to be OK, don't worry."
Aoife nodded and cuddled into Bailey who pulled her onto her lap and Ryland climbed up as well and snuggled into her.
Daryl and Dean had found some squirrels and a pheasant as they looked for something to provide food for their family.
"Yer doin' good son," Daryl smiled, proud of what a great little hunter his son was becoming. When Rayland was old enough, he would bring him out too.
"Thanks pa," Dean smiled, before looking at the ground. "Ain't those dear tracks? Like the ones ya showed me in that book?"
Daryl checked and sure enough he could see deer tracks and grinned at Dean who grinned back happily.
"Good eye son." He praised Dean and they followed the tracks where they found a deer eating some grass.
Dean crouched down like Daryl told him to, and Daryl helped him hold and fire the crossbow, sending an arrow straight into the deer's side, waiting until it fell to the ground, before they went to collect it. "Everyone's gonna be happy with this," Daryl smiled.
"No ones going to go hungry tonight." Dean said happily as they carried the deer back to where the others were and they all smiled.
"Where's Bailey?" Daryl asked Carol.
"She's asleep on the sofa," Carol said softly, as she took the deer from Dean and Daryl so they could prepare it. "She was sick, she wasn't feeling well."
"She was sick this morning as well." Daryl said worried as alarm bells rang through everyone's mind as they took in the implications.
"She's pregnant." Andrea said softly and Anna nodded in agreement.
"Oh god, do ya think?" Daryl asked as he looked at her asleep on the couch. "I mean... I told her I wanted to try for another baby, an' I did, I do, but... after what Lily said about the birth, all I can think of now is that she's gonna die."
"We won't let that happen," Beth said softly.
"Don't matter," Daryl shook his head. "If she bursts that blood vessel when she gives birth, she's gone."
"But we'll look after her, make sure she doesn't do anything dangerous and stays calm." Hershel calmed him down as Bailey stirred.
"Oh god, I'm so sorry I fell asleep." She said getting up and saw their worried faces and felt alarm run through her.
"What's wrong?"
Daryl sat down beside her and rubbed her hand gently. "Bailey... ya should probably take a test to make sure... But... We think yer pregnant," he said quietly.
Bailey went pale and looked at Daryl quickly to see if he was serious and nodded in agreement as she shakily got up.
"Alright."
She disappeared to the bathroom for a few minutes, as everyone else sat down and waited anxiously. Hershel was on edge, he had seen what the haemorrhage did to her, and he knew what this could do to her. Daryl was holding Aoife, Dean and Rayland. Bailey came back out holding onto a pregnancy test as she looked around them all. "It's uh... its positive."
Daryl stilled for a moment before going up to her and pulling her into him as he started to cry into her hair and she held him tightly as she whispered comforting words.
"Sh, sh now baby I'll be alright." She said stroking his hair gently.
"Granddaddy Hershel, Grandpa Will what's going on?" Dean asked worried.
Hershel looked at him and smiled sadly. "Dean, son, Aoife and Rayland, when your mother was ill, she had to get surgery. One of her blood vessels opened up and she started to haemorrhage, which is when someone bleeds too much, or from where they aren't supposed to. They managed to stitch her up, but it might open again if she gives birth," he explained gently. "Your mother might not make it if that happens."
"You mean mama might die, why doesn't she have an abortion?" Aoife asked upset and Bailey looked at her quickly.
"Because that's your baby brother or sister, Aoife and I won't do that." She said calmly and the children ran over to her.
"We don't want ya to die." Dean sobbed.
"It's OK, Dean, I'm here," she said softly as she soothed him. "We'll figure something out, alright?" she said softly, as she held the three of them tightly.
"Mama, if you knew you might die, why did you and daddy try to have another baby?" Aoife asked confused.
"Because I wanted to make everyone happy, myself included and I just wanted another child and another sibling for all of you." She said stroking their hair.
"We'll love him or her no matter what, mama." Rayland said sincerely and everyone smiled at that as Daryl grabbed his and Bailey's coats.
"We're gonna go to the CDC."
Bailey nodded and put on her jacket as they said goodbye to everyone, before she followed him out to the bike. "Are you mad at me?" she asked quietly.
"No I aint mad ya, I'm mad at myself." Daryl said quietly as they drove to the CDC in silence and she felt tears slide down her face.
"I'm sorry."
She loosened her grip on Daryl's waist and sighed sadly as they drove. She knew he had agreed to try for another baby, but she thought that was what he had wanted too, and he wasn't just doing it to make her happy.
They pulled up outside and walked in, going to where a woman was standing. "We need to see Lily," Daryl said quietly.
She nodded and got Lily who quickly hurried to where they were and saw Bailey's tear stained face and Daryl's pained expression.
"Please come into my office." She said kindly and they followed after her and Daryl looked at Bailey who had tears sliding down her face.
"Hey now, don't cry I wanted that baby too." He comforted and she sobbed into his shirt as they went into Lily's office.
"I think I know why you're both here," Lily said softly as they sat down on chairs and looked at her, both of them looking glum.
Bailey nodded. "If you want to say I told you so, get it over now. I know, I know, we were stupid."
"No I don't think you are stupid, I understand why you wanted to have another baby and I just want to check that you are both alright with this?" Lily said wisely and they both nodded.
"I'm not getting rid of it." Bailey said quickly and Daryl pulled her into him as he rubbed her hands gently.
"Then we'll need to make sure you take it easy and Daryl are you alright with this?" Lily asked kindly.
Daryl nodded. "Yeah, I'm alright."
Lily gave them both a small smile. "Bailey, I'm going to insist you come here for weekly appointments, alright? We're going to do this properly, minimize the risk of anything going wrong. We'll check you and the baby over every now and again, and perform scans once the baby develops, alright?"
"That's fine, don't worry." Bailey said twirling her necklace around as Lily shook their hands and they left but Daryl grabbed her.
She looked up at him fearfully and his heart broke at seeing her so upset and sad.
"I love ya and I'll be there all the way alright and I love that baby too." He assured her and something flickered.
"Really?" She asked quietly.
"Really, darlin'," Daryl said softly, as they got onto the bike. "Let's get ya home, and get ya some rest," he said as they drove back to the estate.
They reached the estate and Morgan let them through quickly as they parked the bike and headed inside.
"Are you two alright?" Carol asked gently.
Daryl nodded as he stroked Bailey's hair gently. "We're fine. But we gotta go for regular check-ups at the CDC," he said softly. "They wanna keep an eye on Bailey and the baby."
Everyone nodded and Carol hugged both of them tightly, Bailey smiled weakly at them all as she thanked them all.
"You aren't mad?"
"Why would we be mad?" Patricia asked with a soft smile. "It's only fair that the two of you get to be happy as well as the rest of us."
"Thank you, that means a lot to me." She said hugging them all as Daryl helped her upstairs and they all smiled.
"Please be a girl." Beth prayed and they all went into the living room where they saw Aoife, Dean and Rayland talking quietly.
"Are mama and pa gonna split up?"
Aoife shook her head. "I hope not," she said quietly. "They love each other, right?"
Dean nodded. "Yeah, yeah they do. Pa's just worried about mama an' the baby, that's all."
Rayland nodded reassured by this as they saw Carl come over with Sophia.
"Would you like to play a game with us?"
The three of them nodded and smiled as they went to play a game with some of the older children.
"Your mom's gonna be alright, don't worry." Carl assured them ad they all nodded as they played happily.
Several weeks had passed and Anna sat down rubbing her large bump, as the twins kicked at her hand. Rick came over and smiled, sitting down and wrapping his arms around her. "How are you three?"
"We're fine but my back is killing me." Anna said smiling as they watched it snow outside and sat together holding hands when they saw a very happy Daryl and Bailey playing with Rayland, Dean and Aoife, Damien was snuggled into Merle while Annette was held by Beth.
"I'm glad Daryl and Bailey are happy." She said kissing him.
Rick nodded as he watched the family play happily. "I am too," he said softly.
Anna smiled at him warmly just as she felt her waters break.
"Oh shoot," she gasped as she stood up quickly and held onto her stomach. "Rick, I think your children want to come out now," she breathed. "I need to get inside; I gotta push these little ones out."
Rick paled but kept calm as he helped Anna up to their bedroom where the others had hurried in after them and Bailey was by her side along with the others as she started to give birth.
After a lot of pain and yelling, Hershel smiled as he had two baby boys in his arms. Rick was beaming at them widely, but Anna had a frown on her face. "What's wrong?" Rick asked softly.
"I gotta push... again," Anna panted.
"Alright Anna, push." Bailey said and she breathed in and out as Bailey gently pulled out a small, beautiful baby girl with soft tufts of blonde hair.
"It's a girl!"
"Three babies?" Judith said with her mouth hanging wide open.
Rick grinned at his newborn children. "Triplets! We got fucking triplets!"
"Well shit, Rick looks like ya got good sperm." Merle snickered as Beth thumped him on the shoulder and Anna smiled happily.
"What should we call them?"
Rick looked at the three of them and smiled. "Well, for the girl, how about Rebecca Patricia Andrea Grimes?"
"I like it," Anna smiled. "What about the boys?"
"Matthew Merle Glenn Grimes and Thomas Alistair Daryl Hershel Grimes?" He suggested and Anna felt tears come to her eyes as she thought of her older brother who had protected her.
"I love them, they're beautiful." She said smiling as she kissed him.
Rick smiled as the three babies cuddled into their parents, and Anna fell asleep in Rick's arms, her body exhausted after giving birth to the triplets.
"Becky's so tiny, Matthew and Tom are big." Carl said grinning as James cuddled into his older and pulled on his sheriff's hat and smirked.
"We match."
"We sure do," Carl smiled as he hugged James and Judith, who was still staring in wonder at the three babies her mother had given birth to. "Our family is perfect now, dad," he grinned.
"I love them; maybe mommy will have more babies?" Judith suggested and the two boys stared at her in shock.
"Ease up Judy, wait until the triplets are older." Carl said and they all smiled as they sat with their family.
"Man, can't believe Anna had three kids," Merle smiled as he rocked Damien in his arms. "Thought we were lucky to get two."
Carol laughed. "You never know Merle, maybe someday."
Beth smiled at Damien and Annette when Damien wobbled over and touched Merle's face lightly with his matching grey eyes shining.
"Pa, mama." He cooed as Annette got up as well.
"Mama, dada."
"Merle, look at that!" Beth said proudly as she watched them walk around the room, babbling to each other and their parents.
Merle smiled widely. "I see it, sugar. That's my kids."
Josh got up then and wobbled over to where Glenn was with Katy and Emma and Maggie along with Maria.
"Mama, dada, Emmy, Kitty."
Glenn and Maggie smiled and praised their children, as they watched the two sets of twins begin to walk and talk.
"Look at them walking and talking." Daryl said laughing as he held Bailey tightly to him and she smiled at him as her large bump showed through her black shirt.
"C'mon we gotta go for our check up." He said kissing her lovingly.
Bailey nodded and put on her jacket as she hugged Aoife, Dean and Rayland. "Be good for Aunt Carol and the others, alright?" she asked quietly, giving them a small smile.
"We will mama, don't worry," Aoife said as she held Dean and Rayland's hands.
She smiled and hugged them tightly along with Daryl as they headed outside to where the truck was and got in as they drove to the estate.
"Are you alright?" She asked gently, touching his cheek.
Daryl nodded. "I'm fine," he said softly, as they drove in silence and pulled up outside the CDC, where they went inside. "We're here to see Lily," Daryl said quietly.
The woman nodded and paged Lily who arrived and smiled at them warmly as they followed her to her office and sat down.
"How have you two been so far?" She asked kindly.
"Alright thanks," Bailey said with a small smile. "Nothing unusual or anything like that," she said as she fiddled with a loose thread on her jacket.
"Alright then, I'm just going to put some gel on your bump and we'll see how the baby is." Lily said and rubbed some gel on her stomach.
She then set up the ultra sound.
Bailey lay back as Lily turned on the screen and moved the ultrasound around on her stomach. "Can you see my baby?" Bailey asked. "Is he or she OK?"
Lily smiled at her and Daryl happily as they saw on the screen three babies curled into her stomach, one of them was sucking its thumb happily.
"That's your three daughters."
"Th- three?" Bailey asked shakily. "What? How?"
"You're having triplets, Bailey," Lily said softly. "Three girls."
Daryl felt a lump in his throat and smiled down at her happily as she pulled him into her tightly and kissed him lovingly.
"That's our little Charlotte, Peggy and Lara." He said smiling happily.
