Chapter 15

Five months and counting

Erin POV

I'm so big there's no way there's one baby in here. They've started moving there's been some really strong kicks. I'm technically a housewife now it's all I do, we don't go on runs anymore, we did have a couple come up to the gate and Rick questioned them and decided that they were okay.

Eric and Aaron moved out they got tired of walking in on us, I think the final straw was walking in on us having sex on one of the dining room chairs while dinner was cooking. I can't help it I'm so horny all the time, I read that pregnant women can be more sexual but this is ridiculous, it's at least once a day sometimes more if Daryl not doing anything.

We raided the abandoned homes for baby furniture and hit mother load in one house they were having twins and we, well Rick, Glenn, Carl and Daryl came home with two cots pink and white clothes, toys and a double stroller, unbelievably they had two of those baby carriers the type that you can carry the baby in front of you.

Everyone takes turns on guard duty but me I'm not allowed though I told Daryl I was going into the bell tower as I'm that good of a sharp shooter he knows I am I can do it at least for the time being. We are getting more and more walkers which I'm rather scared for does this mean that the area is no longer safe?

Daryl POV

As much as I love Erin I hate her independent streak she wanted to do guard duty but Rick put his foot down and said no, I'm glad someone can tell her no cause she doesn't listen to me when I say no. She kicked Spencer out of the bell tower and spends several hours a day in there just picking off walkers as they appear. I must say it is impressive she never misses and it's head shots all the time.

"So Daryl are you going to do something about that?" Rick said pointing to the bell tower.

"What exactly am I supposed to do? She wants to help."

"Yeah but she is putting those babies yeah we know she's having twins don't try to deny it at risk she could get hurt."

"Rick I've been trying to get her to stop but she thinks she can cope."

"I don't like it Daryl we need her out of there. Sasha can take over she's just as good a shot as well, maybe not as good as Erin but she's good."

"Okay I'll try getting her down from there. Damn I was hoping you wouldn't ask me to talk to her, I don't want a fight."

"Well then don't fight. Go the softly softly approach and you might get what you want."

I climb the stairs of the tower, no wonder she likes it up here it's kind of cozy, she padded her area up so she can lie down. In this light I can see her cute butt.

"Oh Daryl you scared the crap out of me. What's up babe?"

"How are you babe?"

"I'm okay. It's been really quiet today. Had a couple of big hard kicks today I swear these two do it in tandem I hope they don't do everything in tandem when they are born."

"Babe we need to talk."

"Aren't we already? Sure what's up Daryl."

"I don't want to fight with you I'm tired of fighting. Rick doesn't want you up here he thinks it's not safe for the babies yeah he and everyone knows about the babies that they are twins. He thinks you'll be better served doing something else."

"What exactly am I supposed to Daryl? I can't go out anymore so there's my main job gone, I'm a horrible cook so there's cooking for the people that can't cook gone."

"Hey I love your cooking your rabbit stew is yum."

"I want to contribute. I feel lazy you do so much and if I don't do this I'm doing nothing."

"Hey you are not lazy, you're pregnant that is an important job too you know you've gotta raise these two girls yeah I reckon they are girls, how are they going to know how to be girls if you aren't here?"

"I'm not going anywhere."

"But you could if you don't look after yourself and them and I could be forced to raise them could you imagine me looking after two little girls, I don't know the first thing about raising girls."

"Yeah you do I've seen you with Judith you're good with her. I saw you trying to teach her to walk you'll be fine if I wasn't here."

"Please don't talk like that. I couldn't cope if you were gone, I don't wanna lose you Erin. Please stop there's others here that are as good as you let them take over we will be safe. Let Sasha or Spencer do it hell they should be those two could be good together if you let them spend time together."

"I'm not stopping them. They can spend as much time together as they wish."

"Please babe come home, we will make home a place you wanna be, why don't you wanna be there anymore? Is it because Eric moved out? He's not that far, hell you can see him everyday I'm sure him and Aaron won't mind as long as they aren't having sex."

"Yeah I don't wanna walk in on them having sex been there done that. Okay Daryl I'll stop but if things get worse then I will have to if we get raided I'll be needed I'm good Daryl it's what I'm made for I don't know how I'm going to be some mom to baby boys these aren't girls they are boys."

"We should put a bet on if they are boys or girls."

"What would we wager over?"

"I don't know I'll have to have a think over it. Maybe make you do something you hate like listen to my music for a change instead of the seventies rock you do."

"Oh no you wouldn't torture me like that. That's so mean."

"Maybe there won't be any wager just that you think they'll be boys and I think they'll be girls. How's that sound?"

"Sounds good babe."

"Can we start now come home, I want my girlfriend home. Oh I'm going on a run tomorrow."

"What for we don't need much else do we? I mean the town we are pretty set up."

"Oh I can think of a few things we need. Or more to the point I need. I'm taking Maggie and Tara with me.

"Oh really huh? They never go since Tara had her accident. And I don't think Maggie has since you've been here. You're up to something aren't you? I know it, don't tell me I don't wanna know."

"I wasn't anyway but there's no secret I thought Maggie would like being out there that's all."

"Okay mister secret."

You aren't getting outta me miss Fitzgibbon. No way I thought.
