.All of the Above.

I'm surprised that I slept...even for two hours, Well... better than nothing. All I can think of is what happened with me and Daryl. I mean, it was great.

I woke up at the sound of my door knocking.

Mi: Carol!!! Are you up?
C: Yeah...I'm awake.

I got up and opened the door.

Mi: Good morning!
C: Hey!
Mi: Rick and the others are waiting for us...meet us at Eziekel's.
C: Okay.

I dressed up quickly...and ran to Eziekel's.

C: Sorry if I'm late.
R: No problem...we didn't start yet.
E: So, We should be delivering supplies to the Saviors...it's near the Sanctuary.
R: We're gonna have to split up.
E: Yes. Alexandrians will be surrounding The Sanctuary...The Hilltops will be hiding with our people...me and some of my men will be the ones delivering supplies.
C: And how will it start.
E: I'm gonna call for Negan...he has to come out.
J: And if he don't?
E: he will...I'll make him.
R: So ... you will be talking to Negan...then?
E: We should take one of their tanks before we start it ...I'll be talking to Negan until  you give us a signal.
Mi: what's the signal.
E: One shot from the tank...but you need to be careful not to hit the truck with supplies...we'll use them as soon as the group hiding starts shooting.....Luckily we have an RBG...someone will use it.
C: I will ! I can shoot towards the Sanctuary to block the ones inside from going out, and the outside from going in...but you'll have to drop gas.
E: Well done!
D: I have a question...now when we take the tank...won't it make sound?
E: The place where vehicles are kept...is far enough from the Sanctuary...you'll take it between shift switch.
D: Alright...I'll be doing this.
R: Okay so...Now, ME, Daryl, and Michonne will head back to Alexandria...Maggie and Jesus to the Hilltop and Carol You stay here. We should be in our places four hours later.
E: Exactly.
R: Daryl you'll go 30 minutes before us between shifts.
D: Okay.
R: We should be there exactly 9:00 o'clock...which is 4 hours later.
E: Everyone's preparing here.
R: Great...Well, let's end this shit.

I hugged Michonne, Rick, and Maggie.
C: Take care.
Mi: You too.
Ma: Today we'll go home...all of us.
R: Yeah we will...and it's gonna be just the way it was.
C: Yes...together.
Ma: Yeah.
C: You guys are my family...look after each other.
R: Of course we will...and make sure you look after yourself.
C: I will.

I hugged them once more and then I went to where daryl is standing. And I stood in front of him, waiting for a move.

D: Don't expect me to say goodbye.
C: I'm not asking for it.
D: And hugging is considered a goodbye too.
C: Nope. It could be... good luck...Or...see you later...OR........I 'love' you.
D: What if it's....none of the above?
C: Well...it's your loss.

I started walking away until Daryl grabbed my arm.

D: What if it's...all of the above?
C: I don't mind.
D: What if...
C: Why don't you shut up and just hug me?

Daryl laughed at this and then waited a moment...looking at me...then he wrapped his arms around me ...and I wrapped mine around him...I fought back tears.
I pulled away first and looked him in the eye.

C: If it's all of the above then...that means you...love me right?
D: Do you?
C: You first.
D: Well...let me see...
C: Oh for God's sake just spill it out!
D: Carol Peletier...I...love...you. You must say it too.
C: Well well...look at you being romantic.
D: Just say it...I have to go.
C: Alright...Daryl Dixon...I love you too...take care.
D: You too.

He starred at me first and then held my chin with his fingers and kissed my forehead...and walked away.
