Help me daddy

Daryl's POV

I saw Rick, Carl, and Hershel at the highway. Not any of the others. Not Skyler either.
"Where are the others?" I ask.
"We're waiting on them." Rick said.
"Have....have you seen Skyler?"
Rick shacks his head 'no.' Damn it.

As we're waiting, Glenn car comes, then T-dog does too. Please Skyler in one of those cars. Glenn and Maggie come out of there car.
Damn it!!
Then Lori, Beth, T-Dog and....Skyler. She has dry blood all over her. Her head is down. Beth runs to Hershel ansn Maggie. Lori runs to Rick and Carl. I run to Skyler. I pick her up and hug her.
"Daddy?" She cried.
"Yeah....ain't nobody gonna hurt you." I whisper.
She nods in my shoulder. I hug her tighter. I'm never letting her go.
"We should go. Set up camp somewhere." Rick says.
We all nod. I try putting Skyler down. But she didn't want me to put her down.
"Sky, I gotta put you down." I told her.
"No...." She says.
I sighed.
"Want to ride with me or ride with Rick."
"Ride with you."
I nod. I held her close. I didn't know what to do. I'm not good this this kind of stuff. So I got on my bike and put Skyler in front of me. Then we all drove away.

We lost a lot of people today. Otis wife, Shane, Jimmy, maybe Andrea and lots of others. Sure I didn't really talk to 'em but its hard losing people then we grow weaker.

A few months later, Daryl's POV

We survive though winter. So that's good. Since the farm....Skyler hasn't really been talking. She talks when she needs to but not really. I wonder if something happen. That she not telling me. She really doesn't smile that much either or laugh. I don't like it.

Now me and Rick are hunting. I left Skyler with Lori. Lori pregnant. But she doesn't know who she got knocked up with. Funny right?

As we're walking, we see something. Its a prison. But there so many walkers. More then 100.....maybe more.
"This is great! We could start something there." Rick said.
"We could die there. Look at how many walkers are in there." I mumbled.
"We'll kill them then."
I rolled my eyes.
"Yeah sure whatever."
He just shack his head then we walk back to the road.

I saw Skyler, looking through that damn baby look again. I sighed then walk to her.
"Hey Sky." I said.
She nods and keeps looking through the book.
"Ye know that book ain't gonna change."
She nods again.
"I know. I just like looking at mama. And seeing how happy you and mama were and me and mama were happy."
I sighed. But nod. She been thinking 'bout Grace for a while now. I been dying to ask her what happen at the farm. Maybe it's time. We haven't talked about that.
"What happen at the farm." I blurted.
She finally looks at me.
"When i was 3. I think. Mama had a boyfriend. His name was Jake. He was very nice to her, nice to me too. He was just like my daddy to me."
My fist clinched. This Jake guy ain't her dad. I am.
"He ain't your dad." I growled.
"I know. You weren't there at the time so yeah."
"What does that have to do with the farm?"
"I saw Jake.....as a walker."
Tears were slipping down her face. I was gonna wipe 'em off but she wiped 'em off.
"Did you kill him?" I ask.
"No...i couldn't."
"Ye gonna have to."
"No I won't."
"Skyler, if you don't you'll die. I can't be there all the time."
She doesn't sat anything. She throws the book down. My eyes widened from shock.
"Mama right!! You ain't never gonna be there when I need you!" Skyler yelled.
My head goes down.
"Sky-" I said but she cuts me off.
"No! Jake was a better daddy then you!!!"
She runs off. My heart broke in a million different ways. I saw that she ran to Maggie. I feel like Maggie her second mom. Then Jake was her...second dad. He fulled my shoes for two years. But then the world went to hell. Why was she by her self when I found her?
Why was Jake a walker?
Where Grace then?
