Daryl's Fallen(TWD fan fiction/Daryl Dixon)

Chapter 28

Lily's PoV:
"Open the doors they are coming." Rick belted. I felt my heart race as I pressed the button for the shutters to open fully. My sister had my dad's arm wrapped around her shoulder and they were hobbling towards the door with a few walkers falling behind them.
They fell through the door and panted out of breath.
Where's daryl? He isn't here, he couldn't be? Please oh god no...
"Where's Daryl?" I felt my chest catch and I felt my self stop breathing.
They stumbled onto their feet still out of breath, their face covered with dirt and their clothes were ripped.
"Pack of walkers on our ass.. couldn't hold them off...we were running out of time to open the sewage door....he stayed behind to make sure that we would get back." She doubled over and held her stomach her eyes were watering slightly as she spoke. I felt my heart break, my world just stopped in that moment and I couldn't feel anything but a pang of realisation. I felt my face fall and I began to shake violently.
He wasn't coming home again.
"You sure he didn't escape?" My voice whispered as I felt a dozen pair of eyes settle on me. I stared at my feet and backed up away from my sister.
"Honey there were too many I don't think he..." my dad tried to lay a hand on my shoulder but I flinched away.
"You are lying!" I shouted and turned around to face him knocking his hand off of my shoulder.
"Honey I ain't-"
"You just left him there! You didn't make him come with you, you abounded the one person that means that much to me in this shitty world and you left them!" I began to shake and the tears started to down my face. Dad looked so disappointed and a burning pit of anger took over that nauseating feeling.
"He can't be gone, he can't be." I whispered looking at my trembling hands; they scratched and bruised. i grabbed my gun from my back pocket started to head towards the door. My heart felt like it had been tourned and taken out of my body, I felt so lost.
"Where are you going?" Jenna grabbed my shoulder her mouth in a tight line her eyes glaring at me.
"Saving him-"
"No it's too dangerous. Except he's gone okay, please there's no way he could of made it out there alive..."
"Just because you never like him" I snapped and she leant back giving me a sneering look. She folded her arms and scoffed a little bit.
"Yeah I never like the guy but Jesus I didn't want him to die Lily. So listen to me and stay put" she growled and I growled back and she stumbled away from her.
Die, she just said Daryl is dead. I could imagine his body their walkers surrounding him those beautiful blue eyes turning that beady colour... I felt a hand on my shoulder that tore my mind away from the disturbing image. I turned and saw it was Maggie and she gave me a sympathetic look. I looked around and saw everyone else had left and it was just us two. I began to shake again and I tried not to them fall down my face but the tears didn't obey my command. I gasped and cried harder. I fell into her arms and wept, knowing he wasn't going to return ever struck something in me. Even though I had my loved ones back and my friends I had never felt more alone...
