Lily's PoV
We walked together, holding one anothers hand to dinner. I pulled away slightly as we entered the dinner hall, yet our hands still touched. I saw Rick stare at us, a little smile was spread across his face when he noticed Daryl and I together. We sat next to each other at the wide table exchanging glances at one another every now and then. I picked at my food and finally began to eat a piece of potato. Daryl looked at my plate and started to plant a chicken and other food on my plate. I raised my brow at him and he simply whispered in my ear.
"Eatin for two now." I blushed and began to eat the new food on my plate, while he scoffed and ate his own.
"Lily?" my head snapped up and Dr Starch was there standing behind Rick. I gulped as the others were now looking at him too.
"I'm gonna have to test you now to make sure...you're safe" meaning he wanted the baby to be safe.
"Oh okay..."
"What's going on here?" my dad sat down in his seat and I blushed. He frowned aggressively, his closely shaven grey hair added to his menacing demeanour.
"Oh well I just need to run some more test-"
"Okay wait for me to finish eatin, I will go with her." Shit, no you're not.
"No, I'm gonna go with Daryl." I blurted out planting a hand on Daryl's tense arm, the clatter of metallic cutlery soon followed.
"You ain't goin anywhere with out me." my dad snapped banging his fist on the table.
"Watch me." I snapped back and pratically dragged-somehow-Daryl off his seat and followed Dr Starch. I looked at Daryl's worried face and ignored the abuse coming from my dad.
"Guessing he doesn't know?" Dr Starch's lab coat flailed behind him as we walked fast. I grabbed onto Daryl's hand who was being awfully quiet.
"No, he doesn't need to." I muttered back. He stopped at a pale white door and got out some keys, he unlocked it and we followed him inside. There was a white bed, cupboards and an ultra sound machine.
"Gotta see how far along you are..." he stared at the contraption and I swallowed loudly. He caught my eye and rolled his own.
"I do know how to use one, don't look so panicked. It's to make sure your baby is safe, so just relax." I laid down on the bed and looked up at Daryl, who was holding my hand with a deathly grip.
"It still work?" he mumbled and Docter Starch nodded while applying cool jelly to my slightly bloated stomach.
"Already showing?" Dr Starch cleared his throat, I looked up at Daryl who had raised his brow.
"I thought I was just bloated" how stupid did I sound?
He put a stick with a rounded end on my stomach. Daryl and I stared at the image on the screen and I heard a weird thudding sound .
"The baby's heartbeat is strong." I gripped Daryl's hand and cover my mouth. Happy tears sprung to my eyes as I see saw little thing sitting there.
"Looks like you're four months along." Four months? That must have been back when Daryl and I first did it.
"How did you not know?" Doc asked and I cleared my throat.
"I stopped getting my monthly after the incident, after being bit..." I gulped and I saw Daryl start to shift uncomfortably. The doctor though started contemplating.
"Interesting." he looked at me and then the foetus.
"Wanna know the sex?"
"Yes!" I said.
"No." Daryl grumbled and we both looked at each other.
"Why not?" I gasped and he shrugged
"Cos my dreams of it not possibly being a boy will crush me."
"Hold on a sec." Doc said and his eyes bulged. I felt my heart skip a beat as I gripped Daryl's hand.
"What?" I felt my voice shake.
"There...seems to be another foetus." twins? Flipping twins for my first birth? I felt my face fall.
"Well I can tell you, your wish of a boy and girl are complete." one boy, one girl? I found more tears spring to my eye as I grabbed onto Daryl's hand harder. I was surprised to see him watching the image in awe. Yet secretly I was scared he would back out as twins are a lot to handle, especially in the apocalypse.
"Told ya." he kissed my cheek and I felt a wave of relief wash over me. Doc wiped off the jelly and pulled my top back over the slight bump. Daryl helped mw down and I glanced at Doctor Starch.
"Everything's good?"
"Yes, don't panic Lily everything seems to be in order, but I think we need to tell your group." my face fell and I backed further into Daryl, who grabbed my waist tightly with his hands.
"No." I shook my head.
"You have to Lily, I want you to stay here during your pregnancy."
"No! I want them with the rest of my family in Alexandria." we had the equipment, not a lot of it, but we had it.
"Lily..." Doctor Starch spoke in a lower voice "If these children are as special as you are we can find the cure to this thing, if it is a genetic mutation, well we can take pieces of their DNA and create a vaccine."
"No, if they are special we will come back down here to Washington, right Daryl?"
"Yeah.." he mumbled and i sensed that he might of been kind of scared.
"You alright?" I turned around to face him and placed my hand on his chest.
"We need to tell them, rather your dad kill me now than later." he sighed and I took a sharp in take of breath. I finally, after a few more breaths, nodded.
"Okay, but let me do it." I blurted it out and I felt the panic begin to rise within in me like a wave suffocating me. I felt it crashing against my lungs and getting stronger with every beat. The doctor left Daryl and I together to talk things over. Daryl wrapped his arms around me and kissed my lips ever so gently and I kissed him back just as much.
"It's you and me against the world Lily..."It was getting late and everyone else was sleeping by the time we got back to our room. I wriggled into my bed and slept for a solid hour before I was woken up by someone. I felt Daryl's cool hand wrap around my stomach feeling it gently, I turned in his arms to face him and he blushed slightly.
"Sorry I'm just gonna go-"
"Stay." I whispered and he smiled a little and went under the covers to join me. He kissed the back of my neck and the soft spot behind my ear causing me to moan slightly. I kissed him feeling the space fill between us and a low growl for his love rippled through me.
"Lily" he moaned against my lips but I pulled back and rested my head againt his chest.
He gently rubbed my swollen stomach and I began to giggle slightly.
"Night my angels..."
