At first he didn't know how to react. Daryl closed his eyes and felt himself kiss her back with slight aggression since it was the type of person he was. It went on like that for a while before they both needed air and pulled away from each other. Beth's lips were swollen and looked softer, and he wanted to kiss them again. He awkwardly leaned forward and pecked her.

They were quiet the rest of the night. It wasn't awkward, just a kind of nice time together. Eventually Daryl laid on his back in front of the fire, glancing over to her. He wanted to hear her sing, yet instead she just laid down beside him, scooted in, and rested her head on his chest. Her breathing calmed down; she was asleep. Daryl gently twisted a strand of blonde hair around his finger, doing that for what seemed like hours until he fell asleep.

The next morning they packed up and headed out, exchanging multiple glances between each other on the way. They needed food and supplies. Daryl noticed Beth still walked with a slight limp on the foot that'd been caught in a trap. They walked close by each other, their hands brushing every so often. He gave her a sideways glance before slinging his crossbow to his back, making it easier to put his arm around her shoulders as they walked. He could feel Beth's smile without looking at her. Her arm went around his waist loosely as they looked around the neighborhood they were in. Most of the houses looked raided, doors were kicked in, windows smashed. They kept walking for a long while until Beth stopped at a sign.

"Terminus.", She said aloud, reading off from the sign. "Those who arrive survive. The others would be there, if they're still alive.", she looked up to Daryl, a hopeful look on her face.

He thought about what Joe had said. 'Ain't no sanctuary for all.', Would they accept them in? Maybe she was right, and the group had met up there. If these signs were set up in more than one place, which he knew they were from finding the last one, the group very well could have seen them. Did he want to join the group again? He was perfectly content with being in a group of two. Beside him, Beth pulled her hair into it's usual long ponytail. Daryl shrugged.

"We can go up there and check.", he checked the roads, mentally remembering which ones to take from the red line on the map. "Might take a while to get there.", he began walking in the direction of Terminus. Beth limped along beside him, reassuring him she could walk on it still without hurting herself. About an hour later Daryl decided to hunt something down instead of raiding houses since it would be quicker. With Joe and the others, he'd acquired more bolts for his crossbow. He walked into the woods with her, crossbow in one hand. There was a fallen tree in front of them, about the size of a short fence. He hopped over it, holding his hand out to help Beth down. She held onto his hand afterwards, which didn't last long since a bunny yards away peeped out of it's hole. He released her hand, pausing before he got ready to shoot it. He instead handed the crossbow over to Beth, which made a little bit of noise and startled the rabbit. It ran a little ways away, but somehow Beth had managed to shoot it as it scampered.

Daryl flicked his eyebrows up, impressed by the shot. "Damn, girl.", he said, walking to see how good of a shot she made. It was okay, nothing too good but still impressive she hit it. He pulled the bolt out and wiped the arrow on his jeans. Beth wrinkled her nose at that. He started a fire, silently worrying if the gang had seen the smoke from the house the other night. They more than likely had, so making a fire now wouldn't make a difference. He cooked part of it, then tossed the rest in his trashbag. They ate quickly so they could get back on the road, seeing as they'd need water soon. Once they were done, they kicked dirt over the fire to help calm it, and left. On their way to Terminus, they raided a few houses, but had no luck until hours later. The house they found was abandoned and already looked as if raiders had been through it, but they found a few cans of fruit under the cabinet, and three water bottles leftover in an old pack of twenty.

It was about noon now as they continued down the road to Terminus.

"Think my sister will be there?", Beth asked curiously. She was holding the crossbow now, because Daryl's 'arms were tired'...or so he told her. He pointed at a blood smeared sign ahead. It read: GLENN, GO TO TERMINUS. MAGGIE SASHA BOB.

"I think so.", he said, nodding his head towards it. Beth's face lit up when she saw the sign. Not everyone was dead, assuming they made it to Terminus alright. He didn't know how long it would be until they reached their destination, but it seemed like they were nearly there.

Just as it was getting dark, they saw the big building with white letters, reading 'TERMINUS'. They walked up to the gate, which was unlocked. That seemed strange to Daryl, so he opened the door with caution and took the crossbow back. There was another sign saying to lower their weapons.

"To hell with that.", He grumbled, looking around the place. It looked nice, but almost too nice. He didn't see anyone for a while, but then smelled food from a distance. Around another corner, a woman was cooking.

"Hello!", she said, oddly excited. She flipped dark steaks on the grill that smelled a little off, smiling to both of them.

"I'm Mary.. welcome to Terminus."

"-Beth!"

[A/N: So apparently they're killing a major character next episode I hear? o_o Who do you guys think it'll be? Leave a review and let me know, a lot of people think it's going to be someone unimportant and off to the side like Bob. Also I might kill who I think it'll be off on here, but you guys might feed me to walkers. -Sam]
