Hidden Secrets*Daryl Dixon*

Chapter Four: Thinking

"Maybe I said too much. O-or I over-reacted... He was just trying to help." I said while pacing around in the kitchen over thinking about the situation with Daryl. It's been an hour since I went off on him, and since Carol abandoned her project she was cooking. Whatever it was 'cause it sure as hell wasn't whatever I taught her to make. It left Michonne and I to manage breakfast. I could tell Michonne wasn't used to working in a kitchen.

"No you didn't over react, nor did you say to much. Stop worrying about Dixon and help me. He can take care of himself. And he don't attach easily so I din't think he's attached to you. So what you did couldn't have hurt his feelings." Michonne said still having problems with the squirrel meat I taught her to make into bacon strips.

I pushed her aside and continued cooking, "Yeah your right. Besides, I don't need anyone else to take care of me."

"You got that right! Who else can cook bacon out os Squirrel?"

I nodded and sighed, "I still feel like crap though. And my face hurts." I whined. She laughed.

I didn't feel that bad for making him mad. I kind of felt bad for making Carol mad though. She was such a sweet person. Gosh I am such an idiot.

"Can you get another squirrel and make more strips? We have a lot of mouths to feed." I asked Michonne. She nodded. I continued cook .

Fourty- five minutes later everyone was seated, and the tables were set. There was a table for Woodbury, and another for the prison. Everyone dug into the food, oatmeal and bacon, and thanked us.

Autumn and I sat at the Prisoon table. I felt more comfortable here and no one seemed to mind. Daryl sat next to me and Carol across from him. Autumn was on my other side and Michonne aross for me. Rick next to Carl who was next to Autumn, costantly looking at Michonne while Glenn and mMaggie sat next to Michonne and Hershal across from this.

"Mmm, this is good." Hershal commented

"Thanks, it should be good. I used the suirrel Daryl caught himself." I cracked a smiled at Daryl.

"At least some one around here appreciates my hard work." Daryl muttered.

Michonne laughed, "Thank you Daryl, for hunting the dangerous squirrel." Everyone thanked DAryl and continued stuffing their mouths.

"And thank you Michonne and Alexandria for cooking it." Rick chimmed in. Again everyone thanked and continued eating. I was eaves dropping on Rick and Hershals conversation about 'them WoodBury Folk', when Glenn tapped my arm and I jumped.

"Sorry, he smiled, " How did you learn to make this?" I laughed remembering everything I went through to learn this.

"Yeah it couldn't have been easy." Maggie joined in. I laughed again, but they seemed like cool people. People I'd want to be friends with.

"Your right it wasn't. It took many trials and about a hundred cases of food poisoning before I learned how, but I did it. It tastes better with deer instead of squirrel though." I heard Daryl chuckle and that made me smile.

"Well someone likes their bacon." Hershel smiled. I laughed, I don't really like bacon that much. Everyone began chatting and eating. I looked at Autumn as she blushed when Carl said someething. I think she has a crush.

"I'm going to take you out today." Michonne started.

"Oh I see. I don't even get a say in who I go on a date with. Is this what the world has come tooo?" I laughed. I knew she didn't mean it like that. Carl and Autumn laughed.

"I didn't mean it like that! I mean to see what you can and can't do." Michonne explained.

"Don't ask me ask Autumn if I can go. It's up to her what I do." I smiled. Michonne looked at Autumn. She said I could go I kissed her forehead as I got up.

"Daryl, do you mind watching over her while I'm gone." I asked Daryl. He shrugged.

"Whatever. I guess I'm a fuckin' babysitter now." Daryl shrugged.

"Thanks. I'm sorry about what I said earlier." He shruggged again," Okay Autumn, listen to DAryl. If he says not to do something or go somewhere don't." I kissed Autumn again before following Michonne.

"Be careful and don't let any stupid Walker bother you!" Autmn called out behind me. I chuckled.

"I may be tiny but that only pushes me to try hardder sweets! I'll be okay!" I called out behind me. I heard Daryl chuckle. I am pretty tough though...
