TRYING, daryl dixon ✔️

003, whats up with shane?

she was done giving carl blood and she wasn't light headed so hershel let her go outside she saw daryl sharpening his knife. she walked up to him slowly "hey da-" a loud gasp from daryl cut her off "jesus kid you scared the sh- I mean you scared me, what were you trying to say?" daryl asked "sorry about earlier I didn't mean to hurt your feelings but you aren't my dad it's only been three days but I do trust you, your just kinda scary" she said. he let out a laugh "it's alright, I'm gonna take care of you and you can't stop me. I've never had a kid but your probably as close to one as I'm gonna get."

hershel came and got her and brought her inside, he needed to tell her something. "shane and my man otis went out for supplies for carls surgery." he said. "SURGERY no no no what is he gonna die?!" she asked starting to cry. "I'm gonna do my best." hershel said finishing that very deep conversation. "WAIT HERSHEL! why the hell did you let creepy shane go? you can't trust him."

she went to dales rv. she sat there thinking about what just happened before dale walked in "hey, I'm dale we haven't really met what's that look on ya face?" he said "carl needs surgery and hershel didn't give me a real answer of if he would survive or not." lily said with a very worried expression on her face. dale then picked the girl up and told her the long story of his wife.

daryl walked over to her after she stepped out of the rv. "where have you been?!" Daryl asked in an angry tone. She pointed behind her. "hershel told me what you told him." daryl yelled "What about how shane is a crazy person? he is, I just have a bad feeling about that guy he's creepy, and I saw him talk to lori about something..." she said. "about what?" he asked very amused. "i can't tell you."

6 hours earlier

"your pregnant?" she whispered "yes" lori said back. lilia went over. "hi-" she was cut of by shane grabbing her wrist "what the hell did you hear, WHAT DID YOU HEAR?!"

"everything." lilia said smirking, she knew exactly what was going on. the big man grabbed her harder. she let out a cry. "ah!" she yelled in pain. he saw the bruise forming on her arm and threw her to the ground. it turned out lori was yelling this entire time. "you tell anyone about this and you will have more then a bruise to worry about."

present time

so much had just happened she couldn't handle it, she just couldn't she had been trying so hard but she couldn't. she spent a long time sitting on a tree thinking so hard. she had already accidentally almost called two people dad. what was she doing? she saw her dad. "dad, is that you?" she said to her 'father'. "no honey of course it's not me, I just want you to know I love you and you take as much time as you need but it is okay to call daryl dad." her supposed dad said. "im not gonna do it yet I'm not ready" she said jumping up to hug her dad, but before she could hug him he disappeared into thin air. she started to cry she was confused she was feeling so much. she didn't understand what was happening.

about 20 minutes later she heard a car. she wiped her tears and ran over to see what happened. It was shane but no otis. hm, lilia was very suspicious.

"where is otis?!" hershel asked sternly

"lost him." shane said very non-chalantly

lilia ran over to maggie knowing this would make her sad because they knew each other. maggie looked down at her with tears in her eyes. lilia held her hand inside. "i know how it feels. its gonna be okay. even though you don't know me you can trust me with secrets, im here for you" lily said with a slight smile. maggie hugged her tight, lilia hugged her back. she could tell her and maggie were going to be good friends.

shane saw her sitting on a tree. "you tell anyone kid?" he said it that mean tone he always had. "no because you gave me a damn bruise."she said back. "i swear on my life you tell anyone i'll kill you, i can cover it up look at me i just did." He said "you killed otis huh" she said acting like it was obvious. "screw you, shane your threatening a 7 year old with death it aint a good look, im smarter than you think so mess with me again and you'll regret it." she said standing up.

lilia was tough, she was finally understanding how tough she really was, but then shane grabbed her and brought her to daryls tent "you need to put this kid on a leash" shane said. "why are you holding on to her like that?" daryl said confused and pissed off. shane then said a curved version of the conversation but jokes on him daryl heard everything. but really how did he not notice daryls tent was like 2 feet away from the tree lilia was sitting on when shane told her all that stuff.

"you touch her again, and you'll regret it. understand punk?" daryl said

"ok daryl" he said sarcastically.

both lilia and daryl chose to ignore that and daryl put her in his tent. "lemme see the bruise." He said. she put her arm out for him to see. His eyes widened big "what." He was speechless at what this grown man just did to his little girl. " it doesn't hurt much anymore but it hurt when he did it." she said quietly "im gonna touch it you tell me if it hurts, kay?" he said comfortingly. "okay." he pressed and it hurt but she was good at hiding pain, she didn't want to worry him. he continued to do that but never too hard. daryl was nice, caring. she didn't know how to explain him but he was amazing. "get some sleep lil." he said with a smile

lilia woke up the next morning refreshed, the bruise on her arm was disappearing, which was good.

daryl walked over to the tent and picked her up. "hon' I'm going on a run to go try to find sophia. i need you to go to the rv and stay with dale." daryl said to her. "are you gonna be okay?" She asked nervously. "ye i will when i get back you can learn how to use a knife maybe a gun. ill be back." He said. "okay daryl, bye."

she made it to the rv, and overheard glenn and dale talking about maggie. she knew what they were talking about so she let out a chuckle. they walked to the door so she ran to the front of the rv but it turns out glenn was leaving so she walked in the rv to see dale. she sat down and played with toys she was having fun until.

she heard a scream.
