The One He Chose

~1~

~Dallas's POV~

I was running through these thick woods running from a group of walkers. I ran along this fence until I saw someone on the other side, my eyes went wide.

"Hey, hey, HELP, let me in, please!!!"

He looked at me and started running to the gate, he opened it for me and I ran in helping him to close it, when it was closed we backed up and I looked at him.

"Thank you..."

I held out my hand to him.

"I'm Dallas."

He took my hand.

"Daryl."

I smiled at him, and he started walking towards the building before he turned and looked at me.

"Follow me, ya need to meet Rick, he'll have questions."

I nodded my head following him into the prison, when we got inside I saw a man with long white hair and a beard. A girl with long blond hair, an Asian guy and a girl with shoulder length brown hair, I saw a kid with a hat holding a baby. Next to him was a guy wearing a button up sheriff's shirt, he looked at Daryl walking over to us.

"Who's she?"

I looked at Daryl and he looked at me before looking back at the guy that I'm guessing is Rick.

"This is Dallas, found her runnin from some walkers outside the gate. Figure ya could ask her the questions, maybe let her in the group."

"Alright, Dallas, How many walkers have you killed?"

I looked at Daryl and he nodded his head before I looked back at Rick.

"I lost count, after the first week."

"How many people have you killed?"

I looked up at him.

"Three."

"Why?"

I took a deep breath.

"They were in a group that killed my group, one of them raped me so I killed them."

Rick nodded his head.

"I'm sorry that happened to you, welcome to the group."

I smiled.

"Really?"

"Yeah, we can always use new members, so what weapons do you use?"

"I can use both knives and guns, I can also track."

Daryl looked at me with a smirk before looking at Rick.

"Looks like I'm not the only one anymore..."

He looked at me.

"Can you hunt?"

"Yeah, I'm fair, why? You need a partner?"

"It'd be nice."

I nodded my head.

"Alright, when do we leave."

"Tomorrow."

I smiled and the guy with the long white hair came over to me.

"Let's find you a cell."

I nodded my head following him, I looked at the bottom level to see that all the cells were taken. I looked at him before walking up the stairs taking the first cell on the right. I walked in setting my pack down before laying down getting some much needed rest knowing that tomorrow I would be spending the day with a redneck.

~Daryl's POV~

Ever since she walked through the gates I haven't been able to think about anythin or anyone but her. She's amazin, her dark blond hair with hints of red and brown mixed. She's wearin a black tank top with a white and black flannel, a pair of ripped dark wash shorts, and knee high riddin boots. I was pulled from my thoughts by the sound of someone saying my name, I looked up to see Rick standin there.

"Who's she?"

I felt her eyes on me and I looked at her before lookin back at Rick.

"This is Dallas, found her runnin from some walkers outside the gate. Figure ya could ask her the questions, maybe let her in the group."

"Alright, Dallas, How many walkers have you killed?"

She looked at me, I nodded my head tellin her it was alright, she looked back at Rick. After that I kinda checked out until Rick welcomed her to the group.

"I'm sorry that happened to you, welcome to the group."

She smiled and I swear my heart started beatin ten times faster, it was the most gorgeous thing I'd ever seen. If I could I'd spend every day of the rest of my life tryin to make her smile.

"Really?"

"Yeah, we can always use new members, so what weapons do you use?"

"I can use both knives and guns, I can also track."

I looked at her and smirked before lookin at Rick.

"Looks like I'm not the only one anymore..."

She looked at me.

"Can you hunt?"

"Yeah, I'm fair, why? You need a partner?"

"It'd be nice."

She nodded her head.

"Alright, when do we leave."

"Tomorrow."

She smiled and Hershal came over to her.

"Let's find you a cell."

She nodded her head followin him, I watched as she walked up the stairs taking the first cell on the right. I walked to my cell layin down lookin up not bein able to get her vibrant green eyes and amazin smile out of my head. I layed there until Carol walked in and sat on the bed next to me, I looked at her and she looked at me.

"I need to talk to you about something."

"What's goin on Carol?"

She looked down at me.

"I love you."

My eyes went wide, I sat up and looked at her.

"Carol, what the hell ya talkin about?"

"I'm in love with you Daryl."

I stood up shakin my head.

"Carol, this ain't happenin, I don't feel that way for ya, I'm sorry, I can't."

She looked down standin up and noddin her head.

"Alright, yeah, I get it, goodnight Daryl."

I nodded my head, she walked out of my cell, I shook my head layin back down fallin asleep. Only to think about the girl upstairs, and how amazin she already is to me, and I hardly know her.
