I notice something is out of place as we approach the prison. It's dark out there and I can barely see but I can tell something is not right.
"What the fuck?" I say and lean forward.
Daryl sits up properly and leans forward and peers into the darkness. "Is the fence down or am I seeing things?" I ask
"What?" Michonne says leaning through the middle.
I see Carl then, he's opening the gate for us. Then I see Rick as I drive up to the courtyard. I stop the car and Ty jumps out first "Sasha? How's Sasha?" He asks
"I don't know. I'm sorry." Rick replies
"Well, get in there. We got this." Daryl replies.
Tyreese and Bob head to A block while the rest of us observe the damage. "What happened?" I ask Rick
"Walkers broke through a part of the fence. We took them out" Rick tells me
"Just you and Carl?" I ask surprised.
He nods. "Okay, well we'll just have to fix it. We can fix it right?" I ask Daryl.
Daryl nods "Yeah, we'll do that tomorrow"
True to his word, the next day Daryl, Tyreese and I head down to the fence and patch it up the best we can. "Is Sasha okay?" I ask Tyreese
He nods "Yeah, she'll be fine."
"And Glenn" I ask
"He was little worse for wear but he's getting better" Tyreese replies
I nod and het out a sigh of relief "Good, that's good."
Daryl strokes my hair back from my face "You can't save everyone"
I smile up at him "I can try"
He smiles a little and nods "Yeah"
I step back and admire our work "That should do it for now" I say with a smile.
Daryl nods "Yeah, let's get back"
We head back up to the courtyard in the truck and I see Hershel limp towards us from A. "How's Glenn doing?" Daryl asks him
"He made it through the night. He's breathing on his own now. Maggie and Bob are with him. He seems stable enough for me to get some air." Hershel states and I grin
"He's a tough son of a bitch." Daryl says
"He is." Hershel replies
"You're a tough son of a bitch." Daryl tells Hershel
"I am." Hershel replies and I start laughing
"How about Carol? She up in A block with Lizzy?" Daryl asks
"No. Talk to Rick about her." Hershel says and my laughter stops
"Why? What's wrong? Is she okay?" I ask in a panic
"She's okay, just talk to him." Hershel says
I look at Daryl as Hershel walks away. "You go ahead, I'm gonna head down and see Rick."
Daryl grabs my arm and pulls me into his chest "Hey, we just survived a plague and we can touch each other again."
I grin up at him "Yeah, we did and yes we can." I run my finger across his sweat covered exposed area of his chest.
"Kiss me then" Daryl says
I laugh a little and push myself up onto my tip toes and kiss him slowly. Daryl grips my hair and pulls me closer, deepening the kiss. "Knock it off, you're in public" Nessa's voice shouts.
I pull away from Daryl reluctantly and see Nessa standing in front of C block, leaning against the fence with a smirk. "Don't you have something better to do than watch me and my husband kiss for the first time in days?" I ask with a raised eyebrow
She laughs and holds up the large bottle of water in her hand "I'm taking this to A block"
Nessa walks over to me and kisses my cheek, I look at her surprised. "What did I do to deserve that?" I ask
She shrugs "You're a good kid. See ya" She walks off.
I smile and looks up at Daryl "She's proud of me."
Daryl looks confused "You two have the weirdest ways of expressing affection"
I laugh "I know. We're British, we don't like to show emotion, we prefer to bottle that shit up until it explodes."
Daryl laughs and kisses me again "Healthy"
I giggle and kiss him back "I know"
I pull back and tap his hip "Right, off you go. I'm gonna talk to Rick"
I walk away "Gwen" Daryl calls after me.
I turn "Yeah?"
"I love you" He tells me
I grin "I love you too" I stop then turn back and run up to Daryl "Actually, Rick can come to us. Let's take a break, we've earned it"
Daryl grins and takes my hand "Finally, she rests"
