The Dixon Chronicles

"A Safe Place"

(Glenn's POV)

I was glad that Daryl and Merle were able to give me a lift. The last thing I needed to be was lost, lonely, and shit out of luck. Fortunately for me I found two generous strangers in this new world. A lot of things have gotten offed when shit hit the fan. The police, the military, human population, but I didn't expect conversation to go down with it. I don't blame them though they must've been through a lot, I have. Daryl sleeps as Merle drives. Every now and then I would open my water jug, take a swig, and gaze out the windows as the day comes to an end.

"Hey Merle I think we should find somewhere to stay." I suggest.

"What makes you say that?" Merle questions.

"Have we not been through a lot? I think you guys have and I have too." I say.

"Point taken." Merle nods and elbows Daryl.

Merle informs Daryl. "Darlina we're gonna find somewhere to crash".

"Whatever." Daryl says as he tries to sleep again.

It took a good ten minutes to find some place to stay for the night. We finally find a gas station and decide to stay there.

"Daryl rise and shine we found a place." Merle said.

Daryl wakes up and we all step out the Humvee, grab our essentials, and head to the gas station.

"I'm gonna empty the pumps. Last thing we need is to be blown to bits in our sleep." I say.

Daryl nods in approval and runs back to the Humvee to grab the empty canisters to hand them to me. I then start raiding the station of its gas.

(Merle's POV)

"This where we want to stay at?" Daryl asks.

"Probably just for the night baby brother." I confirm

My eyes scan the small food mart I find a corner next to the drink coolers.

"Ha claimed." I say as I put my sleeping bag on the floor and crash on the mat.

"Wait bro, we should clear the place." Daryl suggests.

"You can go ahead and try to make this "The Safe Place", I've been driving all day." I say as I get some shut eye. I would help Daryl, but I am just too damn tired. Maybe Chinaman outside can help lil Darlina out. Speaking of Chinaman here he comes now walking through the front door.

"Got it." Glenn says as he raises the gas cans.

"Congratu-fuckinlations, now excuse me I'm gonna get some shut eye." I mutter.

(Glenn's POV)

Well I guess Merle never slept.

That leaves me and Daryl with the rest of the night. I just want to call it a day and hit the hay, then again someone has to keep watch. Daryl comes back from the bathroom after busting a grumpy and looks at his knocked out brother.

"Eh, guess he could use it." Daryl mutters quietly.

He looks at me and sees the bags under my eyes.

"Hey, go get some sleep. I got watch."

Ha it's like he read my mind.

"You sure?" I question.

"Yeah. I got it. I already slept in the car. Now sleep you need it."

You don't gotta tell me twice.
