Him (A Daryl Dixon Fanfic)

Chapter 2: Dumb Ass in the Tank

I kneeled next to Glenn as we searched through channels until we finally got a connection.

"Hey you" Glenn said causing me to giggle.

"Ya you dumbass in the tank" I hurts out laughing causing everyone to look at me. Mostly Glenn gave me confused looks. Then some one said something.

"HELLO? Hello?!?!" The other voice said obviously frightened.

"Hey okay listen we are gonna need you to do whatever we tell you if you want to get out alive. While the geeks are occupied u are going to climb out the bottom and make a run to the nearest building you see with people on the roof. Got it?"

"Yes alright so I see you now."

"Yep so just make a run for it and also u might want to grab your hat."

We all ran downstairs ready for the man to be there. he eventually showed up and we let him in closing the doors and covering them again. Andrea quickly grabbed him and pushed him against a table with a gun to his head.

"You could have gotten us all killed!!!" Andrea screamed at him, he's not even making a move.

"Oh hush up Andrea, you are the one whole who was screaming that there was a person and now you are holding a fuckin' gun to his head" I spat at her making her release him then quickly grab me. She probably expected me to flinch but I was used to this stuff.

"She's got a point Andrea." Glenn said backing me up. Then all of a sudden she started crying and mumbling random stuff.

"Well we gotta get out of here." I said breaking the silence.

"Let's head up to the roof and scope out a plan" Rick answered and we all nodded and started heading for the stairs.

Rick started taking about a pretty well planned out plan when all of a sudden Merle gets mad.

"MERLE SHUT THE FUCK UP! Do you wanna get outa' here alive or pushed off that ledge because I will not hesitate to push you!" Glenn laughed a little from my sudden burst of anger at Merle. Glenn got up and whispered to me that I am probably the only one to ever do that.

Merle took a step back from my because I had pulled out my Katana from my bag and was pointing it at him. He jumped a little at how fast I pulled it out.

Then Merle and T-Dog started arguing and that's when I snapped I pointed to blade right to his neck and jumped behind him with my arm around his so he couldn't fight back.

"Touch him again and I will slit your throat open and feed you to the walkers." I whispered calmly. Everyone's jaws on the floor from my sudden burst of strength against Merle.

Then officer Rick I think his name was grabbed him and handcuffed him to the roof. We started talking again ignoring Merle. We had a plan and if that planned included meeting the rest of the group then I was in. I need more human interaction. It's been just me, and some guys I found along the way but killed them because they tried to rape me, for 3 months. What I wanted most was socialization with a man. I needed someone to hold be when I break down because I do. I have mental break downs where I think about my dad abusing me and my brother and finding my mom and Jack dead. My last one was a couple weeks ago. This is the longest I have went without one. I usually have them every week where I just sit by myself and cry. Which is why I need someone to hold me when I do and tell me it's alright when it's really not.

When we were almost gone I told T to go unlock Merle and he came back without Merle and a sad face. I went over and put my hand on his shoulder looking into his eyes.

"I dropped the key down a drain when I was unlocking Merle." He whispered to me ashamed. I hugged him and said it was alright we were walking back and everyone gave us stared because we were laughing our asses off at a story I told. I liked T, I got along with him. I'm glad to be able to call him a friend. We all got in the truck and Glenn came around with a red sports car that was beeping and leading the walkers in the other direction while we drove away and soon, he was in front of us screaming and smiling. It made me smile that he was so happy.

Once we got back to the camp Morales hopped out and I stayed in the back. Come meet everyone. He says. This is your new family he says. I try to believe him and get out. I walk next to Rick when he runs over and hugs a little boy. I'm guessing it was his son. Then a woman with brown hair ran up and hugged him too.

I followed T and held onto his arm while he led me to people. One person in particular was my favorite besides T and that was Dale. He was an old man with a fishers hat and a floral shirt.

He was really nice like my papa. That's who he reminded me of my papa. I told my papa everything. He died when I was 24. Hardest year of my life. I sulked in my apartment all day while my now ex best friend helped me with everything.

The group said they had an extra tent I could use for now and when we went to put it up it broke. Just my luck. The only other tent without 2 people was the one and only Daryl Dixon's. I knew Daryl but we only hung out once. He kissed me and left back to Atlanta with his drunk dad and redneck brother Merle. He probably doesn't even remember me. We were like 15. That was like 12 years ago. I still have feelings for him. I was so in love with him every time I would visit him with my drunk dad and brother me and him were inseparable. In love pretty much. We would run into the woods and hide until dark. He even taught me how to shoot. That's why I am such a good shot.

I was immediately thrown back into reality when I heard screaming. Children screaming. I ran over and saw Carl and Sophia crying into their mothers. Carl had grown a special bond with me when I met him. He ran over to m and grabbed my hand I had my knife in the other just incase. We walked over and a walker was eating a deer with an arrow in it. All the men started hitting the walker with things like shovels and rocks. I let go of Carl's hand and walked over.

"God don't you guys know anything about these things." I said at the same time as somewhen else who shot it just as I stabbed it.

I looked up and standing there was Daryl. My first love and still my only love.

"MCKENNA?!?! Is that you?!?!" He said dropping his crossbow and running over to me. I nodded my head.

"I can't believe you are alive." He said with hope in his crystal blue eyes.

" I wouldn't be here if you hadn't taught me how to use a gun mr hot shot Dixon." I said with a smirk.

He smirked and pulled me into a tight hug. I never wanted to let go but then someone cleared their throat and I saw T standing there smiling at me. My face got red and Daryl pulled out of the hug and took my hand. He led me to the tent and set his crossbow down and told me to stay here. I nodded my head and I heard him scream Merle's name with made me flinch. Perfect moment ruined. I jumped out of the tent but I was too late. Daryl was already screaming and tears where almost flooding from his eyes. I ran over and hugged him from behind causing him to jump but quickly become relaxed and turn around. I brought him to the tent and explained everything.

Tears fell from his eyes and I hugged him while he put his head in the crook of my neck then lifted it. I wiped his eyes and gave him a kiss on the cheek and got up. It's was a silent moment but it was perfect. Amazing every word you could think of would explain it. I couldn't put how I felt for him in words. I heard him get up.
