Keep Moving Forward (Sequel To Redneck Lover)

Chapter 2

*Daryl*

I hit my elbow twice against the window of the building.

"Just give it a second."

We all waited and then Zack smiled confidently.

"Okay I think  I got it."

I chuckled.

"Got what?" Michonne asked.

Zack sat next to me and explained on how he had been trying to guess what I did before the turn. You wouldn't be all that impressed honestly.

"Okay shoot."

Zack smiled.

"Well the way you are at the prison, you being on the counsel you're able to track you're helping people. But you're still being kind of uh...surly. Big swing here...homicide cop" he explained.

Michonne started to laugh. I looked at her.

"What's so funny?"

"Nothing makes perfect sense."

I looked at them.

"Actually the mans right."

Zacks eyes widened.

"Really?"

I nodded.

"Yup. I mean I don't like to talk about it cause it's a lot of heavy hit ya know?"

Zack looked at me.

"Come on dude really?"

I didn't say anything I just looked at him then chuckled.

"Alright I'll just keep guessing I guess."

"Yeah you keep doing that."

Suddenly a walker pressed against the glass.

"You wanna do this detective?" Michonne joked.

"Let's do it."
-------------------------

We were walking in the aisles and I came to the baby one. I grabbed tons of stuff. Diapers, clothes, some baby food. We had plenty of food for our child. I picked up a blanket and looked at it. It had "Little Angel"  sewed onto it. I couldn't wait to meet my child. Before Adelyne I didn't give a shit about anyone but my brother. He was the only one  I had. Sadly he had gotten sick and passed away not long after we moved all these people in. I missed him, and always would. My thoughts drifted back to Adelyne. My god I loved her, she was the best thing that ever came into my life. I couldn't fathom life without her. And now she was carrying my child. I never thought I would ever be a father. But here I am. I will always consider Katie my daughter and I miss her everyday. But we had to keep going with life.

Suddenly there was a loud sound of glass breaking  followed by a yell and loud crash. I instantly started to run, and we seen a shelf had fallen on Bob. I shined a flashlight on him.

"You alright? You cut or somethin?" I asked.

"Nah man but my foot is caught."

"Alright it's just caught."

We lifted up the shelf and everything seemed to be okay. Suddenly a walker fell through the ceiling hanging from the intestines.

*Third Person*

Adelyne paced the length of her Marys cell.

"It's getting late they should've been back" she said taking a deep breath.

"Worrying wont make it better Al" Mary told her sitting up.

Adelyne paced back and fourth.

"It's like all I ever do now. I can't do anything but sit around and wait. Its driving me crazy" she explained.

Mary pushed a hand through her now long hair.

"I know sis believe me. But there's plenty to do. Cooking, cleaning-"

"No I proved I can do more than that-"

Mary stood up and walked over to Adelyne putting her hands on her shoulders.

"Addy, we know you can do more. Like you said you proved it. But in your condition I wouldn't want you doing anything else either" she explained.

"I'm pregnant not dying."

Suddenly Adelyne froze. Her heart quickened, Dying. Lori died while Adelyne delivered her baby. It was a sight that she would never forget and she frequently seen it in her dreams. Adelyne would never admit it but she was scared after everything with Lori she feared she could meet the same fate. It killed her to know that she might not be able to even meet her child. To see what he or she would become. And Daryl it would destroy him if she died. And the last thing she wanted to do was hurt him.

"Adelyne."

Her sister speaking was what brought her out of her thoughts.

"Yes, what?"

"Are you okay?"

Adelyne nodded,

"Yeah just...I'll be right back."
-------------------------------

Rick had finally convinced  Adelyne to go lay down instead of walking aimlessly around the prison waiting for Daryl to get back. It was getting late and she needed the sleep. Rick heard the rumble of Daryls motorcycle and stepped outside into the brisk night air. Everyone walked past Rick looking upset then Daryl came up to him.

"What happened out there?" he asked.

Daryl adjusted his backpack and crossbow.

"We lost Zack, it uh we just couldn't save him" he explained.

Rick nodded.

"Are you alright?"

Daryl nodded.

"Yeah, how's Adelyne? Is she okay? Where is she?"

Rick held out his hands.

"Calm down Adelyne is fine. She's sleeping I convinced her to go to bed since all she was doing walking around waiting for you to return."

Daryl smiled to himself she was so cute. But he told her not to worry and she did anyway putting stress on herself. He would scold her for that later.

"I'm going to go see Beth. Then call it a night" Daryl explained.

Rick and Daryl did a bro hug and went to their cells.
---------------------------------
*Daryl*

After I went to see Beth and deliver the news about Zack I went up to my cell. I seen Adelyne asleep on her side facing the wall. Her hair was spread out on her pillow and somewhat on mine. She looked so beautiful and so vulnerable when she was asleep. Her eyes fluttered as she was dreaming. I took off my pants and shirt. I slid into bed and Adelyne stirred. I kissed her forehead and her eyes opened. She shot up putting her hand on my chest.

"Daryl, oh my gosh"

"Shh shh I'm home it's okay."

I laid down with her and looked into her eyes.

"What happened out there?" She asked.

I ran my fingers through her hair.

"You don't need to worry about that now. Go back to sleep come on."
