Never Make A Promise (TWD/ Daryl Dixon FanFic)

Know How You Feel

I started to come to and when I did I felt something soft under me. I started stroking it with my arms, it was grass. Soft grass.

I opened my eyes and instantly sat up, being met with the sunny sky. I shielded my eyes with my hand and looked around. 'Where was everyone?'

I realized I was in a field surrounded by trees. I then stood up and started to wonder into the tree line.

I was loving life at the moment! No walkers in site, feeling no fear and no worry. And to make it even better?...

THERE WAS A LAKE! I didn't waste anytime taking off my clothes and coincidentally I had a bathing suit on underneath.

I swan dived off a nearby cliff and resurfaced almost immediately, moving the hair out of my face.

I then heard a nice coming from the trees. I hid behind a rock that was near by. Maybe I wasn't a safe as I thought.

I watched as a dark figure came out of the tree line. I hid further behind the rock.

The dark figure walked to my clothes, picking them up and then dropping them again. I face palmed my hand. I'm so stupid! The figure then stood up.

"Jamie?" I frowned as I peaked from behind the rock. "Jamie?! Jamie! Wake up!" Everything started to fade to black.

----
I shot up, hitting my head on something. "Ow" my eyes focused and saw Daryl hold his head. I smiled and wrapped my arms around him put pulled back was a sharp pain shot across my stomach.

"Are you ok?" I chuckled and nodded while clutching my stomach "are you?" I moved his hair to see a bump was forming on his forehead. My fingers then traced down to his eye where there was a bruise. He winced as I touch a tender part but he then relaxed again.

I then looked around and noticed that we were still on the road. Joe was laying dead as can be in front of us with a blood pool around him.

I looked around and noticed Carl was sitting away from us all. "Carl come here" I waved but could hardly turn around. He shook his head so I frowned and got on my hands and knees and crawled to him. Dartl and rick were talking to each other so they didn't notice I was on the move.

I sat down next the Carl and immediately clutched my stomach again. "You're a piece of work Grimes" Carl chuckled, making me smile.

"How ye feeling?" Carl diverted eye contact as he looked towards his dad. "I know how you felt" that made him look at me but he looked confused. "If I tell you something you have to promise to keep it a secret. The old person that knows is Daryl and I wanna keep it that way" Carl nodded as he turned to look at me properly.

"Ok, well as you probably know, my brother was in juvie most of the time and the one time my parents are home too. They were both drunk and they're always abusive when they're drunk" I looked at Carl as he stared at me intensively.

"My dad came into my bed while I was minding my own business and grabbed me, dragging me down the stairs. He banged my head against the wall, blurring my vision. I could just make out that he was unbuttoning his pants. My mother, the sadistic bitch was laughing while chugging down a bottle of wine" I paused and took a deep breath.

If it wasn't for Daryl... He came over because he doesn't like it when I'm left alone and he saw my parents were home so he knew that wasn't good. He came round the back and saw what was going on through the kitchen window."

I chuckled "he kicked down the back door and grabbed my dad but he threw his head back and headbutted Daryl, making him let go. My mom then smashed the wine bottle over his head but he was still up and he punched my dad, knocking him out. When he came too, he and my mom went out. I didn't see them for a month."

I sighed. "I owe my life to Daryl... He stayed at my house that night, I patched up his head which had a huge gash in it and I fell asleep on my couch with his arms wrapped around me"

I looked at Carl who had a looked of shock plastered over his face. That made me laugh. "Daryl's a bad ass" I nodded "so are you" I smirked "no I ain't". You are! And... Daryl loves you" I chuckled and wrapped my arm around Carl. "You're alright kid" I ruffled his hair, making him moan.

"You guys ready?" I looked at Carl before looking at Rick. "Yeah, we're ready" he helped me up and I put one arm around him as we all made our way to follow the train tracks.

Terminus, here we come!"
