Skyler POV

My daddy might be here? No it can't be.
"No....it can't be." I mumbled.
He shrugs.
"Daryl's last name is Dixon too. You might want to talk to my dad first...he's nicer then Daryl." Carl says.
I nod. Great my daddy might be mean. I remember mama said he couldn't take care of me and mama so he left. But mama said right when I was born he gave me a special teddy bear. Wait!? I left my teddy bear at the house! Or was it in that field?

I look around to see where Rick is. I see him by an old reddish shed. And he's talking to Shane. Shane seems mean. I run up to Rick. I hear Shane groan then walk away. See he is mean!
"What's up Skyler?" Rick ask.
"My teddy bear, left it in my house or that field!" I exclaimed.
Rick chuckles.
"Well we can go to your house now, if you like?" Rick ask.
I nod. Yay!!!!

We get to my old house. It reminds me of mama. I wonder where she is. I miss mama.

Rick said we have to bring Daryl. I didn't like it. I ran in my house.

Daryl's POV

Skyler run in a old looking house. The house looks so familiar. We walk in. Skyler ran to her room. I saw that they had family photos. I saw Grace. I had a kid with her but I walked out, 'cause I couldnt take care of a kid. But I did help her with her pregnancy. I was in love with her. And I think I still am.

I picked up a book. It looks like a baby book. I open the first page. I
Was in it. My eyes went wide. But then I remember right when me and Grace's child was born, I gave her a teddy bear. But there it is... the birth certificate.
Skyler Willow Dixon.

Flash back, Daryl's POV

"Look at her Daryl, she beautiful." Grace whispers.
I moved Grace's hair out of her face. Both of 'em are so beautiful.
"Why couldn't we name her Willow in stead?" I asked.
She looks at me. She smirking.
"'Cause I don't like Willow. Your lucky I let you put that for the middle name."
"Oh you let me?"
"Yes Mr. Dixon, I did."
I smirked. I lead in and kiss her. Grace hands me Skyler. God she looks so much like Grace. But not her eyes. She has the Dixon blues. I grab the teddy bear I got for Skyler. I know she'll love it.
"She looks a lot like you." I smiled.
I smiled at Skyler then at Grace.
"But she has the Dixon blues. Daryl, your gonna be a great father."
She smiling at Skyler. But I feel deep down, I won't be a good father. I dunno why I feel that way. I just do.

2 weeks later

Skyler been keeping me and grace up all night. We're lucky if we get 3 hours of sleep.

Its 3 in the morning. And Skyler crying again. God...why can't she just sleep. Its Grace turn to help Skyler. I'm getting fuckin' sick and tired of this. I groan then walk to Skyler room.

Grace is rocking her back and forth.
"Grace...I can't do this." I sighed.
She looks at me.
"What do you mean?" She ask.
"I can't so this, taking care of a damn baby! Skyler would do better without me."
Tears are storming down Grace's face. She puts Skyler back in her crib. I storm out. I get to my room, grab a bag, then pack my stuff.
"Daryl, what are you doing?" Grace ask.
"I'm leaving." I mumbled.
"So your gonna leave me and our baby?!"
I sighed.
"Grace, we all know I can't be a father. Skyler was just an accident."
Grace's eyes go wide.
"You said you're happy!"
"I was...."
I packed my stuff. Grace is crying on the living room.
"I'll send most of my pay checks here to help out." I said.
"Yeah Daryl your really helping out."
"I love you Grace."
She says something under her breath. I shack my head then walk to my car. Then drive away.

Flash back over

I felt tears trying to slip down my face but I don't let 'em. I put the book down. Of Skyler really is my daughter...i need to see the bear.

I walk to Skyler's room. She packing someone of her cloths. I see Rick helping her.
"Rick...i need to talk to you." I said.
He nods. We walk out Skyler room. I sighed.
"I think Skyler is my daughter." I said.
Rick eyes go wide. Like no way! But its true.
"What? Really?" He ask.
"Yeah, my ex girlfriend Grace. We had a child together. But I walked out. I couldn't do it."
"Wow..."
That was all Rick said was "wow." He probably never thought I would never have kids. Believe me I thought I wouldn't have kids either. I dunno if I could tell Skyler.
"How can I tell Skyler?" I ask.
Rick shrugs.
"Just talk to her." Rick suggest.
I nod. We walk back in. I saw the bear.....it was the one I gave her. I shrug it off.


We're driving back to the farm. Skyler sleeping in the back seat. How can I tell her?

We got back to the farm. I feel like I should tell her now.
"Skyler..." I called.
She turns around. Her Dixon's blues light up in the sun, her dirty blonde hair glows when it's in the sun. She gives me a half smile.
"Yeah?" Skyler ask.
Damn it....this is gonna be harder then I thought.
