Rock Bottom (Daryl Dixon/ TWD)

Chapter 10

Chapter 10

----

The look out room for the cafeteria was roomy, to day the least. We brought two mattresses from an empty cell and put them on the floor, there was hardly any walking space so we kept out stuff on the counter that surrounded the windowsill.

Daryl kept giving me this look, like he was trying to take in everything about me and never forget how I looked. I laid down on our makeshift bed and stared up at him.

"Daryl, it's been a long day, lay down" I pleaded.

He nodded and laid down beside me. He looked as if he was trying not to cry.

"Daryl? What's wrong?" I asked holding his face in my hands.

"It's just, after Merl died, I never felt so close to anyone." He said looking at me.

I smiled softly as he laid his head on my chest. Inlet my hands run through his soft hair.

Daryl's pov

--

My head rested on her chest, while her hands stroked my hair. I felt like a wussy. That's what she did to me, she made my stone heart melt to mush. I shouldn't be feeling these things for her, but she drives me crazy, in the good way.

I sat up and straddled her waist, my fingers found the hem of her shirt and horror filled her eyes, I lifted her shirt just to expose her stomach. My hands rested on her sides and I rested my head against her belly.

"Hey Piper?" I asked.

"Yes Daryl?" She asked breathlessly.

"Do you think that we could ever be normal? You know, like get married or have kids?" I asked, I sounded kinda crazy, but I didn't care.

"I think that Rick and Lori proved that love can exist In the most horrid of places" she said dreamily.

"Okay, let's make a deal. In a while from now, if things are still good, then we can have a kid?" He asked hopefully.

"I suppose so" she answered smiling. She wiggled out from under me and crawled on my chest. She pressed her warm lips to mine and wrapped her arms around my neck.

My hands found her waist and she let a laugh escape her lips, she pulled away "that tickles" she laughed

I put my hands lower on her hips so it didn't bother her.

She flopped down in our bed and closed her eyes.

Next morning, still Daryl's pov

I sat up and ran a hand through my hair before I stood up. I shook Piper awake and she groggily stood up. She clipped her gun safely to her waist before she followed me out the door and down the steel stairs.

We walked down the corridor of cells. Carl was attempting to flirt with Beth, Maggie and Glenn were having a deep conversation, while Rick was holding Lori's baby bump in his hands.

Everyone was doing there own thing, but Hershel broke the silence by saying what everyone was thinking.

"If Lori has the baby in a few days, as planned, then we need to find some medical supplies." He said.

It only took a few minutes before Rick was plainsong a trip through the prison.
