The Huntress - Daryl Dixon BOOK ONE

Part 60

The hilltop

You was stood around with everyone discussing the plan and people expressed there concern about trusting what Gregory had said "unless Dwight didn't tell him and he's setting us up" Daryl spoke, you chose now was your time to speak " he's telling the truth, iv spent time trying to get in with Negan, he told me plans, Dwight really wants to go, Negan took his wife made him his wife and now sherry is gone she left and Dwight just wants to be free" they all nodded.

You was all loading up and getting ready to go finish this fight with the saviours, no one was sure if Negan was still alive but knowing him he definitely was, you was filling your guns with bullets "your not coming" you looked over to Carol "oh I am" she looked at you "you will only cause more problems you have been with him he has fallen for you, also you think I haven't noticed the fact Daryl is holding your belly every now and then" you looked at the woman "what is your god damn problem Carol, you want Daryl is that it, jealousy is not a good look on you" she stared at you

" he was my bestfriend he spent his time with me before you came along" "look I'm sorry you fancy a guy who doesn't fancy you, that isn't my problem though Carol, I'm going im going to help end Negan it's the whole reason I stuck with him for so long to be here today" you noticed everyone was paying attention to yours and carols argument, looking off and seeing Daryl and Rick walking closer " and wether I'm pregnant or not it has nothing to do with you Carol, I'm a grown as woman who makes her own decision your not about to tell me what to do like you tried doing with Maggie, she is fine her baby is fine, I will be fine and so will my baby, no one is stopping me doing what I have to do, so back the fuck off" you got in her face chest rising as your anger flew through you.

"Baby, calm down" you shook him off  "no iv had enough, I did what I had to do to help you all I sacrificed my body I sacrificed time with my kids to get information to help my people I'm not having this bitch stand here and judge me yet again Daryl" you stared at him he then  sighed and stared at Carol "leave her alone, I'm sorry I don't love you, you mean a lot to me Carol but she's my mrs you need to leave her alone " he lowered his voice "you don't tell no body about the baby, you don't tell her what to do, she won't listen to me and Rick she definitely isn't listening to you" Carol looked at him shocked

"she killed the guy that killed Ben Carol dear" Ezekiel walked up to us trying to defuse the situation Carol looked from him to me "I'm sorry Ben?" You questioned "the boy that got shot" you slowly nodded "he didn't make it" you questioned " no but you knew he wouldn't" you looked at him wondering how he would know that, "your face gave it away, either way we are greatful you helped, we just hope you didn't get into to much trouble" you smiled at him "no I was in to deep with Negan, they actually got punished for letting It happen" you smile.

" well thank you for the help" you nodded to the cute older man, "it's no problem I'm sorry for your loss" he smiled softly at me "I don't want to fall out Carol you have been a good friend to myself and Daryl, your apart or this family, I didn't leave and be with Negan because I don't care about everyone that's the exact reason I done it,  I had to do things I didn't like in order to prove I was apart of his group, but this baby is Daryl's, the dates add up and we never had sex unprotected" Daryl stiffened next to you at the thought of yourself with another man " we will get Negan, then we will grow old and happy" Carol nodded "I see, just stay safe, as you are aware there are a lot of people here who like you" you nodded and walked away.

Out on the road

Groups of us went out and tracked some more of Negans men we killed them on the road, we found a map w efollowed it making our plan up as we walk, through fields of fields it never seemed to end, Daryl stopped making everyone stop "oh Jesus" Rosita spoke out "holy damn ever seen one that big" Jerry asked about the walker herd they seen from miles away "noo, things are changing let's go," you answered "how much further" Daryl asked Ezekiel "not much further, yonder over the ridge." He answered.

Walking through the fields people started whistling the same sickening whistle you heard at least once a day at the sanctuary everyone was quick to raise there weapons not knowing where to point them "well damn Rick, look at that, pegged again pegged so very hard." Daryl looked straight at you motioning for people to surround you so you wasn't easily visible, "I ambushed your ambush with an even bigger ambush" Negan spoke again you shook your head, you should have known he would play the trick game "how about you step out and face us" Rick screamed across the field

"Oh I am everywhere Rick, some more bullhorns, more walkie, pick a direction to run, see how you do, make it fun for all of us, guess what else I did, I brought you some of your old friends, you remember your old buddy Eugene, well he is the person that made today possible same goes for Dwighty boy here" Negan spoke "shit" you whispered out "case you was wondering he didn't lead you on purpose. No he is just a... a gutless nothin that sucks at life, and now he gets to stand up here and watch you all die, and he's gonna live with that. Gabriel well...he's got to go, too. As for my wife, I don't know what happened to her, last I knew she was shot and left at the hilltop so I can only assume she's back with you pigs, I mean how can you trust her when she's been sleeping with me for weeks"

he stopped talking again the sentence made you cringe, you never thought this far ahead you always thought you'd be with him until this fight happened but it so happened he went missing Simon took over and left you injured so you ended up back with your family "We are cleaning house today, Rick. And then... there's you. It never had to be a fight. You just had to accept how things are." You all still looked around trying to see if you could catch a glimpse of them "sooo, here we go. Congratulations Rick"
