Holly's POV
"Come on Holly! It's your turn for the run!" My oh-so-polite twin shouted.
"I'm getting up!" I shouted back, while reaching on to my desk and grabbing my glasses. I walked over to my wardrobe and got dressed (outfit above) and walked downstairs, grabbing my bag on the last step.
I went into the kitchen and saw everyone at the table, I sat down at the only able seat. Patrica came over and put down some toast. "Thank you, Daddy can I take Thunder today?" I asked.
"Yes okay, but just be careful." He replied.
"Aren't I always." I said, with a small teasing smile.
I finished my toast and walked over to the stables. "Hey boy." I said to Thunder. He neighed back and came over to the door and opened it with his teeth. He trotted over to me, "Hold on Thunder, I have to saddle you up." I said walking to the rack, with him following me. He always does this. I saddled him up and got on him, as I did my best friend came over.
"Hey Holls, Hershel said I could come with you," she said hesitantly, "Can I?" She had always been a little shy, even more so after the zombie apocalypse.
"Yeah okay, but take Lilly. I saddled her up last night cause I was going to take her." I said pulling her up onto the horse and riding back into the stables.
Emily got off and walked towards Lilly's stall and went in. She came out a few minutes later and we rode over to the gate, which Maggie, my twin, opened for us. "Make sure you come back okay." She shouted.
"We will, we always do." We shouted back. I felt something in my stomach, as if it was trying to warn me that this run was going to be bad, but I couldn't tell why.
We rode for a few more minutes when we saw a group of walkers coming right at us. "Run Em!" I screamed and we ran past all of them.
Em got caught in them so I had to run back. I got of my horse, grabbing my gun with my shaking hand and shot them, each and everyone of them. With a little help from Thunder, of course. There was a few more behind us both, which soon turned from a couple into a thousands, maybe even millions!
I threw Emily on Lilly and ran to Thunder, as I did he was being attacked so I shot them all aswell. I got on Thunder and we rode away, but we didn't get far, the walkers took out our horses and they ran. I hit my head and I heard gunshots and voices. My vision slowly blurred until all I saw was darkness. I might have blacked out but I could feel the vibrations flow though my body where someone had picked me up, someone I'd soon thank for saving my life.
Daryl's POV
Me and the guys were walking back to the van when were heard screaming. We looked in that direction and saw two girls fighting walkers.
We ran over there and killed all the walkers with ease. Walking up to the girls we soon noticed that one of them was passed out. The other girl who seemed to be in shock was talking to Rick.
I walked up to the other girl and saw she wasn't quite passed out yet. "Hey, you the one with the crossbow, can you pick her up please?" The blonde asked.
I looked at the brunette and crouched down putting my arms under her back and knees and swiftly picking her up. She was so light and beautiful, wait what? She isn't, I'm Daryl Dixon, I don't get attached to women. I shook the thought off and walked over the group.
"Where going to take them back to our camp until she wakes up." Rick said to me.
"Okay but where do I put her?" I asked with no interest.
"Just put her on the horse, I'm Emily by the way and that's Holly." The blonde said. I nodded and walked over the horse and put her on. "She won't stay on there dufus, you'll have to stay with her." Emily shouted, I grunted and got on the horse, while everyone else put there things on the other horse. I couldn't wait til I saw Merle again, he was dead meat.
Holly's POV
I felt like I was back on the horse, it was so bumpy. But I felt arms around me. I opened my eyes and saw we were leaving the city. "What happened? Where I am?" I asked no one in particular.
"Well your on your way to our camp, we didn't kidnap you, your just staying with us until you feel better. I'm Rick Grimes by the way, the guy holding you, that's Daryl." As he said I turned to look at this Daryl and woah let me tell you hottie. I looked away and introduced myself.
"I'm Holly Greene." I said and we continued walking. "I'm fine now, you can walk or I can if you want." I said to Daryl.
"I'll get off, my legs ache." He said, rubbing the inside of his legs.
"Okay." I said and sat on the horse properly while he got off. I didn't want him to go, it felt right being in his arms.
After an hour, it was already dark and we has a few minutes left until we arrived, at least that's what Rick said. All the time I was on the horse, I could feel Daryl looking at me. Every time he did, I blushed really hard, and I don't like it. I'm the one that doesn't get feelings and is the player, not the other way around. Ugh, I hate feelings.
We arrived but there was screams coming from the camp. I jumped off Thunder and grabbed my knife and gun and ran into the camp. "Everyone head to the RV!" I shouted upon seeing the RV.
A walker grabbed my hand and went to bite it, I pushed it away but the head was too strong, then a arrow went through it's head. I looked up shocked and saw Daryl with his crossbow arched.
"Go and help other people, just don't get yourself killed." He shouted and headed down to help some more people.
I ran the opposite direction and saw a woman with a little boy trying to get to the RV, but there was at least 5 walkers in front of them. I ran in front of them and pulled my knife and killed them all with ease. "Come on." I shouted and grabbed there hands and brought them to the RV.
"Thank you, I'm Lori and this is my son Carl, I'm Rick's wife and you are?" She asked, awaiting my response.
"I'm Holly Greene, your husband saved me and I have to go save some more people." I said walking away.
"Hey, your cool!" Carl shouted with a massive grin on his face as he ran to catch up with me. I turned around and smiled. This group reminded me so much of my family, I'm going to like them, a lot.
