Daryl Dixon x Male!OC

chapter 5

Austin pov

Rick tells us to get ready for an attack and that Aaron's people are coming for us, i don't believe they are but i do what i'm told because i trust Rick's judgment. " me and Sasha, we didn't see him if he had wanted to hurt us he could" Maggie tells Rick "anybody see anything?" Rick asks "just a lot of places to hide" Glenn tells him "alright, keep looking" Rick says walking over to carl.

Rick and Michonne walked out of the barn as i was going back in, i walk over to Daryl "walked through the woods and didn't see anyone" i tell him "how ya feel about this guy?" Daryl asks "i don't think he's lying to us, i don't wanna think it either. you?" i say "guys hidin something bout his friend out there, i can tell, the way he talks" he says as i sit down next to him "that might mean his friend is more than just a friend" i tell Daryl and he grunts knowing we should trust Aaron but not wanting to, i hope Aaron's people aren't like terminus.

Daryl whistles from outside telling us the others found us Maggie's the first to run out i'm still examining Eric? i think that's his name, i was too busy fixing his leg to listen much. "Eric, Eric!" i hear Aaron saying from the other room "in here!" Eric says "Eric!" Aaron shouts running into the room, now i get it they're definitely gay "i'm ok, it's like a volleyball injury, broken ankle, that's what doc said" they both looked at me "i like him" Eric says and god is it awkward for me that is "i'll give you two some room" i smile and shut the door behind me after i walk out Rick walks in, a few minutes later Aaron and Rick walk out "excuse me, excuse me, thank you, you saved Eric i owe you, all of you and i will make sure that debt is paid in full when we get to our community, when we get to Alexandria, now i'm not sure about you but i'd rather not do anymore driving tonight um maybe we can hit the road tomorrow morning" Aaron tells us all "that sounds fine but if we're staying here tonight your sleepin over there" Rick points in to the other side of the, the? i dont even know what to call this place store? no, warehouse? i dont know whatever, "you really think we gotta do that?" Maggie asks Rick "it's the safe play, we don't know you" Rick says i'm starting to think Rick is homophobic, "the only way your gonna stop me from being with him right now is by shooting me" Aaron says and we all stay quiet until Glenn starts whispering something to Rick "alright" Rick says to Aaron

we're back on the road and i'm playing, poker? with Tara and Eugene, i think it's poker, i'm terrible at it, but soon we come to a stop because the battery's dead. i'm sitting on the RV with my legs dangling off while Daryl's pacing back and forth keeping watch "you trust him now?" i ask Daryl "maybe, maybe not" he says, i look up at him and smile "what?" he asks "nothing, just enjoying the view" i say as i hear the engine start

we pull up to the gates and i'm painfully aware of my appearance, the dysphoria is like sweat no matter how much i try to wipe it away it just keeps coming, Daryl puts a hand on my shoulder as i almost start hyperventilating and turns my head to look at him "don't back out now" he tells me and i nod and smile at him and his beautiful blue eyes. we all get out walking up to the gates with Aaron, "even though you were wrong, your still right" Carol tells rick as we walk past him
