Aries pov.

I started to feel a cramp but ignored it. I just watched Daryl get to know his kids. The cramping got worse so I went into R.V. I went to the bathroom only to find out I had a miscarriage. We just lost the baby. OH GOD DOM. I started crying and I know I have to tell Dom. He needs to know that he won't be having a child after all. I can't believe I lost my baby. Dale must have heard me cry and came to the bath room door. The door came open when he knocked on the door. He said sorry and was about to leave. "Wait Dale I need your help." I begged. "What is it Sweety." He said looking at me. "I was pregnant but I just had a miscarriage and I don't know what to do." I cried. I was still on the toilet so Dale helped me up and I pulled me pants up. Dale is my adoptive father but I don't think he knows I remember. "Sweety I know how it feels to lose a child. My wife was pregnant, she was a meat eating gal but at the smell of cooking me she would get sick." "I know. Do you think I forgot you were the man who adopted me. Did you think Brian forgot about his father." I told him. "Hahah. Ya its me sweety. Do you remember how my wife died." He asked. "Cancer wasn't daddy." I asked. "Yes it was. I dragged her to every doctor, chemo treatment, and at the end she welcomed it. I felt so cheated. You, Amy, Andrea were the first one I really cared about in a long time. Brian too." He explained. "I know daddy. Do you think my sisters and dad is still alive.?" I asked. "I don't know baby girl I don't now." He said truthfully. "Should I go tell Dom that we lost the baby." I asked him. He just nodded his head yes. I went outside to my husband to tell him the bad news. "Dom baby I need to tell you something. I lost the baby." I told him crying. He broke down crying. He dropped to his knees and hugged my stomach. Daryl walked up and asked, "Whats wrong Aries." "I was pregnant and I lost the baby. When the twins were two years old, I got into a car accident and was told I couldn't have anymore children. Dom has always wanted a child of his own. We always hoped I would get pregnant even though I was told I couldn't." I informed them. "Hey maybe we can have a funeral for the baby." "yea that would be nice," Lori said as she walked up to me and put her hand on my shoulder. I just shook my head yes. Dale came out with something wrapped in a blanket in his arms. "It was a girl." He said. That made us cry even more. "Mary. That's her name." Dom said as he stood up. I just nodded my head up and down really fast. I walked over to Dale and took my baby in arms. I wasn't ready to give her up just yet. I sat by Dom and we just looked at her. A hour later Daryl came up with this small coffin and a cross with beautiful flowers wrapped around it. Then he brought a flower head ban. He slid it around her head and then gave me a bag. "When I was working on the cross and coffin I found a house with some baby clothes and blankets. I thought she deserves to be wrapped in better thangs when we bury her." Daryl explained. I looked around and everyone was shocked. They didn't know Daryl was this sweet, they didn't know he was sweet at all. "Thank you." I said quietly. Daryl helped me put her in this beautiful white baby dress, it looked like a wedding dress. She looked so beautiful. Daryl had found a silk baby blanket and we put that in the coffin. Then we put her in it. Dom just stood and watched. That made me a little angry because this was his daughter not Daryl's. I get it he is grieving but so am I and I am able to do this. But I am greatful of Daryl. Rick and Glenn dug the grave. Everyone cared so they pitched in. Before Daryl and I had dressed Mary and put the silk blanket in the coffin Lori and Carol bathed her. Amy and Andrea made a special dinner of squirrel stew. Even Ed pitched in. Ed went back to that house that got a beautiful necklace and bracelet that would fit a baby. The funeral was beautiful and the kids sang the song Temporary Home and Concrete Angel. I cried when Carl sang concrete angel. I went through what the song talks about. I was taken from my family when I was really little. I was taken care of these abusive people. My little sister used to sing that song to me when they found out what happened to me. Now it is being sang at my daughters funeral. Now the funeral is over we are going to wait until tomorrow to get Merle. I went to the creek and bathed. As I was getting dressed Daryl showed up. "Thank you Daryl. So much." I said. He came over and kissed me lovingly. Then he just gently pushed me to the ground. We made love under the full moon and it helped with the pain of losing my daughter.

Awe. She lost her baby. And she slept with Daryl. how will Dom react. Thanks for reading. Bye my lovely, crazy nerds. - Amber.
