36. Truth

AN- imma have a small part be before Andrea comes to the prison, you know what I'm saying 😅 anyway let's get started.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~Way earlier in the day~

Rick was on the lookout after Hershal gave him a talk Infront of everyone. Carl comes out standing next to his father.

"Dad"

"Yeah"

"If I say something you won't get mad right?"

Rick nods to his son to continue still looking out beyond the fence.

"I think you should stop."

"Stop what?"

"Being the leader. Let Hershal, Daryl, or y/n take over, you need to rest. We can handle ourselves."

And with that said Carl leaves his father alone. Rick was thinking what his son said, and he thought that maybe he should stop. He was also thinking about what you said, and how it was similar to what Hershal said as well.

Walking back inside he gives Maggie a set of keys. "Take watch. Eyes open, head down."

"Got it"

"I didn't see any snipers out there, but we'll keep Maggie on watch." Telling Daryl, Hershal, Glenn, and you.

"I can set up in the guard tower, take the walkers out from a bird's eye view." You suggested to Rick, Daryl agrees.

"I'll go with her."

"We can't access the field without burning through our bullets." Hershal states.

"Been here before. We'll be all right."

"That's when it was just us. Before there was a snake in the nest." Glenn had a harsh tone.

Daryl gets in his face, standing on either side ready to get in between them incase it got ugly.

"Man, we gonna go through this again? Look, Merle's staying here. He's with us now. Get used to it." Daryl walks away, you try to follow, but Glenn grabs your wrist.

"And you're okay with this y/n?"

All you do is look at him, eyes forrowed, knowing that Daryl was listening. " Does it really matter what I think, all this anger, aggression it's not helping."

"Really you're gonna say that crap when you felt the same way. You agreed to the plan from the start why change now, huh?" Glenn let's go if your wrist.

"Glenn that's enough." Rick tells him.

"Seriously, Rick, I don't think Merle living here is really gonna fly."

Carol comes by Daryl's now new cell along with yours too. "Hey, didn't get the chance to say I'm glad your back."

"To what all this." Daryl uses one of his arrows pointing around gesturing the prison.

"It's a tomb", "That's what T-Dog called it."

"He's your brother, but he's not good for you. Don't let him bring you down. After all, look how far you've come."

Daryl smiles a little, "I would check on y/n once in awhile."

"Why?"

"Well while you were gone, Glenn made a plan to go back to Woodbury at night and kill the governor in his sleep, and y/n was all for it. She wanted to kill the governor make it nice and slow for what he did."

Daryl was a bit surprised that you'd do that.

"I actually noticed how her eyes look. Not the same bright brown color, but she has a defeated look."
