Daryl's P.O.V:
I decided to drive to the highway where we set up that sign for Sophia when we first lost her. As I drove up, I saw the truck Rick was driving and Rick standing beside it. All their heads turned when they heard my engine.
"Thank God you guys are alive!" Rick exclaimed, he came hugged Taylor then shook my hand. Carl and Herschel was with Rick and we all hugged and greeted each other again.
"Where's mom?" Dad we have to go back and get mom!" Carl screamed, he tugged on Rick's sleeves.
"No, we can't go back. It's too dangerous, mom will make it. We just have to wait." Rick said reassuringly to Carl. Poor kid...
Taylor and I had already gotten off the bike and were standing by each other. She seemed real quiet, I noticed a few minutes later that she was shaking.
"Taylor? Ye alright?" I asked real softly. Rick and the others had walked back over to the truck so they couldn't hear me.
"Yeah, just a little shaken." She said, her voice was real shaky.
I gently wrapped my arms around her waist so I wouldn't hurt her gunshot wound. She was tensed up but once she felt my arms, she loosened up.
"I just hope everyone makes it back." Her voice barely above a whisper. I could tell she was worried and it killed me inside.
"Le's jus wait, they'll make it." I said and kissed her cheek. She smiled slightly and closed her eyes, laying her head against mine. I love this girl.
"Guys, look! There's T-Dog's truck!" Carl yelled, he started running with Rick and Herschel right behind him. The truck rolled up and Lori came shooting out of the passenger door with Beth by her side.
Rick and Carl ran right into Lori's arms while Beth and Herschel did the same. As everyone was hugging, another car pulled up and more people poured out of it. Everyone else was hugging and greeting the rest, Taylor and I stood a bit away from the group by my bike.
We nodded at everyone but continued to stay quiet. It looked like everyone was talking about something with Rick but we stayed where we were.
Taylor's P.O.V:
After everyone, well almost everyone arrived to the highway safely, we decided we need some place to go. We all gathered into our vehicles, I rode with Daryl and we headed West.
About 45 minutes into driving, we heard a honk from behind us and stopped.
"Ya out?" Daryl shouted to Rick, who was getting out of his car.
"Running on fumes." He said walking towards us. Daryl and I hopped off and everyone gathered in a circle.
"Were going to have to make a run for gas in the morning." RIck said,
"Morning? You mean were staying the night here?" Carol asked, a look of worry clouding over her face.
"We have to, its our only option. Night will soon be coming and it'll be no use looking around in the dark. We'll have to camp out here for now." Rick replied, he could tell Carol didn't like that idea but understood that we didn't have any other option.
Daryl went over after everyone talked and pitched our tent, he insisted that he do it cause he didn't want me to hurt myself. My stomach had almost healed but was still tender. It definitely left a HUGE scar, I don't quite care though.It looks kind cool if you ask me. After the tent was set up, I went in and laid out our bedding. I heard some movement behind me and smelled Daryl's musky scent. He always smelled amazing whether he was dirty or not. He plopped right down on the blankets in front of me and just looked at me.
I leaned in and kissed him slowly at first, it soon got real heated though. I started taking off his shirt when he stopped me.
"No, we can't... I don't wanna hurt ye.." He said holding my hands, stopping them before they roamed all over his body.
"Come one... I'm almost healed, we just have to be quiet and gentle." I whined playfully and continued kissing him. HE grabbed my hands again and pulled away. Shit, he wasn't kidding, I thought.
"No, not till yer fully healed. But I'll find us a place where ye wont have to be quiet." He whispered huskily by my ear. He kissed my cheek and rolled me over gently so my back was to his chest.
He threw a blanket over us and wrapped his arm around me.
"Night mah angel." He whispered and kissed me one more time.
"Night." I whispered back, I laid my hand over his that was on my stomach. He rubbed my stomach softly which helped me relax and I soon was drifting off to sleep....
