Carl Grimes x Fem Reader Book 2

Chapter 4

Hey guys, sorry I have taken so long to update.  I have been dealing with a lot right now. If I happen to be gone for long periods of time it is likely because of my depression, it has been worse lately and I haven't been stable.
I'll try to update when I can.  This chapter will be short because Carl hasn't been shown for two chatpers... I wanna see my baby boy Carl again!

Daryl's POV 

The cell they were keeping me in was dark, damp, cold, dirty, basically everything you would expect.  Each day they played the same damn song over and over hoping to get to me.  But the only thing I was thinking about was Y/n.
 I was scared and worried about her, if Neegan did anything to her I swear I will kill him.  I kept asking what he did but he just smirks and walks away each time with a new excuse.  I wasn't scared about how I would see her, I was scared about if I ever got to see her.  She is all I have left.  She is the reason I've been trying to get out of this; I need to see my daughter again.  

I was pulled out of my thoughts when the door opened again, this time it wasn't Dwight, this time it was song different  guy.  He looked at me for a second, then gave me the same food. Bread and what ever the hell this shit on top of it was.  I grabbed the food as he closed the door but something was missing; I didn't hear the door lock.

I quickly stood up and twisted the door knob and pushed, slowly the door opened.  I quickly ran out the door and out the hall.  Everything seemed to move in a blur now.  I hid around corners when I saw people coming and ran when they left.  I was just trying to get back to Y/n.   

Eventually I got caught and thrown back into the cell until I was dragged out to Neegan. *I'm going to skip most of the convo sorry guys*

"So Daryl, I'm going to ask you one more time. What's your name?" Neegan questioned as he walked closer to me.  I didn't answer for a bit, I was thinking about what to say and what the concequences would be.  Everything was revolving around Y/n.  If I said 'Daryl' I might not get to see her again, but if I say 'Neegan' I'll get to see her, but I'll be against her.  Both will be torture to both of us.

"Daryl."

Y/n POV  BTW there will be lots of POV changes.

I sat in my bed in the house I shared with my dad.  Tears were streaming down my face, I was crying about Glenn, about Abraham, everyone we've lost. But I was mainly crying about my dad.  I was terrified.

Carl came and tried to check on me all the time, he was grieving too, everyone was, but the ones taking this the hardest were Maggie and I.  Carl tried to comfort me, he tried to help. Sometimes I would almost smile, but then the new events that happened not long ago would torture me again. The demon's would come back again, they would never leave, they would never let me win.

A knock at my door took my attention from the tears as I stood up and went to my room door not even bothering to wipe away the tears that stained my cheeks.  I opened the door and saw Carl standing there with a sad expression on his face.

"Anything about my dad yet?" I asked and he shook his head, here come the tears again.

"I promise you Y/n, it will be okay, we'll find him." Carl said and I nodded sadly.

"I hope so." I replied sadly as a tear fell down my cheek. Carl saw this and his palm pressed against my cheek and his thumb wiped the tear away.  "Sometimes I think it was easier before I came here.  I didn't have to be sad when someone died, I didn't know my dad, I didn't know you,  your dad,  Michonne, I didn't love Judith like my sister, Glenn wasn't like a brother to me, and Maggie wasn't like a sister.  I didn't have to be scared of losing you guys." I said as the tears kept crying, quickly Carl pulled my into a hug.  I moved my head into the crook of his neck and cried more as my hands wrapped around him holding on to him tightly.

"It wasn't better before you came here, Y/n. You're basically like a daughter to my dad, you helped Daryl find something to be happy about, Judith has a big sister, you made me happy again, you helped me fight for something. Y/n, you saved all of us."  Carl said to me still not letting me go.  I let one last tear escape my eyes and I smiled as I pulled away from the warm embrace.

"I promise you, we'll find your dad and everything will be okay." Carl said and I nodded.

"I love you Carl." I smiled a small weak smile.

"I love you too, Y/n." Carl said before giving me a small kiss.  That helped me for a bit, but after he left I was back to thinking about my dad.  I walked over to my bed and took out the notebook I hid under my blanket and kept working on ideas to get him back.
