walk with me

Chapter fourteen

*six weeks later*

We were safe now. The hoard of walkers we had been running from was now gone. We had took the car so noise wouldn't be a problem. Damn, we had to do something. The supermarket where we got Judith's formula has been taken by the dead. That's we're we encountered the walkers we were running from.

"What now?" I asked Daryl.

"I don't know." He said.

"Maybe there is another supermarket near here?" Melanie asked for the hundredth time in two minutes.

"I told you, Mel. Everything has been overrun." Daryl told little miss stupid. Damn, why was she so annoying!?

"Well, maybe we can outrun them." I rolled my eyes at her.

"God please! You act like you haven't been around for the past year and a half! There is too many of them." I yelled at her loosing my temper already.

"I was just suggesting!" She yelled back at me, which, was a common thing this days. Even if I wasn't Daryl's ex girlfriend, we wouldn't get along, because.... Well... She's a bitch.

"Shut up! Both of you!" Daryl yelled at us.

"You know Daryl, if you we're to become a pedophile after I slept with your brother, maybe I wouldn't have done it. You know, for the sake of all children." That was a meanie from Melanie. She really shouldn't have said that. I barely got out the story from Daryl. He just doesn't like to talk about it, but like at all.

Daryl didn't response. He wanted to, I knew it, but for some reason he didn't. Instead, he turned all red. God damn he was about to explode.

"Stupid bitch." He murmured to himself. God damn Daryl, when are you going to tell her all the things you think about her?

Awkward silence followed.

After a few hours of wasting our time trying to find some formula, things were still tense.

"Holly shit." Daryl cussed after reaching Amber Road. This was close to Woodbury.

"What?" Melanie and I asked at the same time.

"We crossed the line." Daryl sounded.... Scared?

"What do you mean?" I asked him.

"I mean, this is the governor's territory. If he sees us here... We're dead."

"What do you mean his territory?" I asked him. Melanie had a what-the-fuck-is-going-on-look.

"We agreed that we wouldn't bother each other anymore if we stayed in our side of this area."

"Well, what are you waiting for? Let's turn around!" Melanie yelled at Daryl.

Just as Daryl started to turn around, a car was coming.

It came at full speed and didn't slow down.

"Shit!" Yelled Daryl.

It happened so fast, the next thing I know is the car is upside down, Melanie is unconscious (or is she dead?!), Daryl is bleeding from the forehead and I am bleeding from everywhere.

"Erin! You okay?" Daryl asked me. I nodded. He took my hand and kissed it.

"I'm sorry." He told me.

Next thing we know, three men are coming out of the car towards us. One I can see has an eyepatch.

"You crossed the line, fuckers." I heard him say, and that's when I passed out.
