Ruin Me So You Can Save Yourself (Daryl Dixon X Male OC)

17. TS-19

Daryl Dixon

I woke up with a hangover. Pretty bad one at that, that's what happens when you drink away the whole night. I climb out of bed and decide to go take a shower, one to sober up and two because I smell like shit even to myself. Lucky me there's no one there so I get a quick rinse and find myself some clothes of probably some guy that lived in the room before. I rip the sleeves of the button up off, they always just get in the way anyway, and then march out to the kitchen.

Everyone is already sitting at the table and eating their eggs which are cooked by Sam who circles around the kitchen handing out breakfast to everyone . He's wearing the same camouflage pants and combat boots and now a warm hoodie. It's pretty warm in here, everyone else is in t-shirts and stuff like that but he's in a hoodie with a hood over his head.

Sam and his I'm-cold-all-the-time condition. Pff.

I plop down on the chair and grab water pouring myself a glass. Glenn is beside me, dying from the hangover.

"Don't ever, ever let me drink again." He mumbles holding his head. I chuckle a little at that.

"You'll be fine, Chinaman." I slap his back.

"I'm Korean."

"Whatever." I mumble gulping down some water.

"Eggs. Powdered, but I make them good." Sam's voice from behind me makes me raise my head as he places a plate with breakfast in front of me as well as mug of black coffee, and then a bottle of aspirin too.

I yelled at him yesterday. Can he be less nice for once? He's always so considerate that it gets disturbing.

"Thanks." I mutter and pick up the pills, taking two and then start eating.

Jenner walks into the kitchen and walks to the coffee machine. "Morning."

"Doctor, I don't mean to slam you with questions first thing." Dale speaks.

"But you will anyway." Jenner sighs.

"We didn't come here for the eggs." Andrea said.

"Come on. Show them the thing." Sam says and Jenner sighs, grabbing himself a cup of coffee before walking out of the room and waving us over.

I stuff eggs into my mouth and get up following everyone. Sam walks too with a mug of hot coffee in his hands, the smell of cinnamon goes off from it, strong. We walk back to that big room with computers and Sam sets his mug down on the computer before climbing on it and plopping down, his legs hanging off the screen.

He likes climbing everything or just those computers? I never had a chance to watch him in the wild per say, observe him act casually, how he acts around other people, never got to see that, so now it's like meeting someone new but in the same time I already know him. It's a weird feeling.

"Vi, give me a playback of TS-19." Jenner says pushing few buttons on the keyboard of one of the computers.

"Playback of TS-19." Vi echoes and something opens on the big screen in front of us.

Some person, only in blue and white shows up on the screen with a lot of shining things and fancy words which say something that doesn't look like English at all.

"Is that a brain?" Carl asks staring at Jenner.

"An extraordinary one. Not that it matters in the end." He sighs a little. "Take us in to EIV"

"Enhanced internal view." Vi says and person on the screen closes up, camera going into its head and showing all those weird lines with blinking lights and moving dots.
