Their Innocent Baby Girl (The Walking Dead)

Finding Sophia's Doll

Rick's POV

"Walker, Walker," Andrea shouts from the top of the RV. I came running towards the RV. 

"Just the one?" I ask Andrea.

"I bet I can nail it from here."

"NO no Andrea put the gun down," I shout to her. she eventually put the gun down and let us handle it.   

"You best let us handle this," Shane said.

"Shane hold up Hershel wants to deal with the walkers," I said getting pissed at him for trying to make all the decisions himself and not caring in the world what anybody wants. 

"What for man. We got it covered." Shane said while walking off.

"Damn it.' I said to myself and ran into the RV to get my weapon and ran back out I saw my girl walking to me.

"You stay with Carl okay sweetheart," I said while going down to kiss her forehead.

"Okay." She said while running to Carl. 

 running back to the group. we ran across the field and reached the walker I pulled my weapon up to its head. 

"Is that Daryl?" Glenn went out and said.

"That's the third time you pointed that thing at my head. You gonna pull the trigger or what. Daryl shouted at us. I pulled my gun down. Then all of a sudden a gun went off and Daryl fell to the floor. 

"NO," I shouted out. And ran to Daryl. got to Daryl and saw the bullet just grazed him on the head. Shane and I pulled Daryl up. Andrea and Dale came running to us.

"Oh my god, oh my god is he dead," Andrea said. 

   "Unconscious. You just grazed him." I told her. 

" Look at him. What the hell happened look he's wearing ears."  Glenn said. I riped off the neckless and stuffed them in my pocket. 

" Let's keep that to ourselves. I told the grope. as we're walking back to the farm T-dog's voice rang out.

"Guys isn't this Sophia's." He said. we all turned around to look at what T-dog was talking about. And saw him holding Sophia's doll. Reaching the farm Hershel put Daryl in the same room Idalia was in. we got kicked out of the room so Hershel could stitch him up. Walking out of the farmhouse getting tackled into a hug, hearing small little cries, and feeling my shirt getting wet. I look down to see my girl in tears and holding me for dear life. I pulled her toward the chair outside. She climbed on my lap and put he head in between my neck. I start rubbing her back to soothe her. 

" What's wrong my love?" I asked calmly to her. 

"Will Daryl be okay?" Her little voice rang out. 

" Yes, my love Daryl will be fine. You want to go and see him?" I asked. She just nodded her head. I lifted her up and carried her into the room where Daryl was. Walking into the room seeing Hershel is still stitching him up. Walking up to the chair next to the bed. Idalia sitting on my lap while we were talking about where he found Sophia's doll.

"How's he doing?" Idalia's voice rang out. 

" I have no idea would be going throgh the antibiotics so quickly." Hershle started to say then he went on. 

"You cot ant idea what happened to my horse?" 

" Yeah it almosted killed me. If if was smart it would of lefed the country."

"We call that one Nelly. As in nervous Nelly. I could have told you she'd throw you if you bothered to ask." Hershle told Daryl. I took I dalia off me and stood up to talk to Hershle. I dalia went to Daryl and climed in the bed with him. Making sure she didnt hurt him and she went to cuddle up to him. 

" I wonder how you people have survived this long." Hershle told me. Walking out the room Shane and i saw Lori out in the hallway I told her that Daryl is fine and walked of. I know Shane and Lori are sleeping be hind my back but it's fine in my eyes we'er already divorced and now I have I Dalia and I couldn't ask for a better girl in my life. As I'm walking away Shane decide to open he's mouth. 

"I hate to say it but I'm with Hershel on this one. We can't keep going out there not after this." He had the audacity to say that. 

"You'd quit now. Daryl just ricked his life to bring back the first hard evidence we've had." I straight out and said to him. 

"There's one way of looking at it. Where I see Daryl almost died today for a doll." Shane said to me. 

"Yeah, I know how you see it." I told him and just walked away from him. 

Idalia's POV

I asked Rick if I could bring food to Daryl. Rick said I can if I wanted to so I went to grab him a tray of food and walk to his room. Opening the door the his room I walked in and saw him laying on the bed hi's back was towards me. He looked up and saw me with a tray of food while he pulled up the covers to cover himself. 

"Hey!" I said to him but he didn't say anything so I went on again. 

"I bought you some dinner. You mush be hungry." I put the tray down. Then Carol came in and told Daryl that his done more for Sophia then her own dad did for her. I felt sad and happy at the same time. Sad because Sophia didn't have a dad to look after her but I'm also happy that someone took notice of Daryl and know that his not that bad of a people. Carol walked out of the room. I looked back at Daryl and saw him move the cover and pat his hand on the bed to signal me to get in the bed to. As I did Daryl wrapped his arms around me and put his head in between my neck like I did with Rick. 

" You scared me earlier." I told him. Getting upset again. 

"I'm sorry love. You know I wouldn't do it on purpose right." He said while he was looking at me. I nod my head and a single tear fell down my face. Just knowing Daryl got hurt just makes me sad. Feeling Daryl hand move up to me face tipping the tears away. I move to put my head on his chest. Ready to go to bed with the long day I've had. 

" Eat your food." I told him." 

"Yes, my love." He said to me while my eyes started to close.
