Hidden Secrets*Daryl Dixon*

Chapter Two: Rhythm

It's been a week since everyone got here. We're still trying to get into a rythm of things. I will admit it's a bit hard since they're not used to having so many people, and most of the people from Woodbury (not including me) are not used to not being told what to do and helping out for the group. Useless people really. Rick's group and I are going to clean out another cell block soon, but until then Autumn and I have been sharing a cell with Daryl. Everyone has to have a roomie and they organized it alphabetically, I was of course last on the list so I was stuck with Daryl. It's not as good as it sounds it's kind of... Akward. Well, at first.

"Alexandria. We ran out of cells so you're with Daryl tonight, and before you can ask Autumn is with you too, since she's your daughter and all." Rick announced and walked away. Autumn and I started laughing because... well ... She's not my kid! I put our bags over my shoulders and walked Autumn to Daryl's cell. Daryl was sitting on his bed in his boxers (And ONLY his boxers. Which I wouldn't mind seeing again. He must have not been expecting company), cleaning out his arrows. He looked up at us with clear confusion on his face. I looked at his bed and relized there is only one fucking bed!

"What are ya doing here?" Daryl asked with his deep and sexy southern voice. "I... Um.. We... Uh." I stammered which is unusual for me. He was just really hot! And muscular and- "Rick told us Alex and I are your new buddies!" Autumn said cheerfully. Daryl smiled trying not to laugh but I laughed. Aw, she's so young...

"Not buddies! She meant roomates! We were last on the list so we were stuck with you." I explained, relizing what I said after hus eye's darkened.

"Stuck with me!? You sayin you don't want to be here?" He asked annoyed. "No! Wait! Yes! Wait! It's just that-"

"Whatever." He grumbled, interrupting me. Stupid jerk. He ran his hand through his hair. "Of course Rick would put three people in the only cell with one bed." He stood up and began to take his stuff off the bed. I stopped him.

"We can sleep on the floor Daryl. It's not a problem"

"And have a little girl sleep on the cold hard floor? Shut up and take the bed." He took some of the stuff and threw it on the bed. Then, folded some clothes into a pillow.

"Are you guys fighting? I don't like fighting." Autumn stated softly. I ran a hand through her hair and kissed the top of her head.

"No sweets we're not fighting. Go to bed now." Autumn did as I said and got in the bed. I layed down next to her and waited for her to fall asleep.

"So what is your name anyways?" I heard Daryl ask. I smiled.

"Alexandria." I answered. He grunted in reply.

*Sorry the chapters are so short. I wrote all of the chapters up to chapter seven in a journal so they're short. I am at a hotel writing this 'cause I don't have a computer. I will try to make them longer though and I will write my chapters on a computer instead of a book now. :/ So xomment or whatever... ~Skyla*
