The Walking Dead [Daryl Dixon]

Chapter 26- A brand new day

Haley's P.O.V.

"We're on easy street, And it feels so sweet, Cause the world is but a treat, When you're on easy street"

I opened my eyes wide. That song has been playing non stop for the past two days. I sat up from the cold hard floor and brought my knees up to my chest. I began crying because I've been having dreams about Daryl every night. Memories from the past. And I haven't seen him. I covered my ears while the song continued

"And we're breaking out the good champagne, We're sitting pretty on the gravy train, And when we sing every sweet refrain, Right here on easy street. It's our moment in the sun, And it's only just begun, It's time to have a little fun, We're inviting you to come and see why you should be, On easy street"

I wanted to scream so loudly. I just wanted it to stop, all of it. Just then the large door unlocked and opened. The music stopped along with the door opening. I looked up thinking it was Scott. He had been coming to visit me the past couple days. He was nice, and he would sneak me bread. It wasn't much but it was a hell of a lot better than the dog food sandwiches Dwight was giving me.

Only it wasn't Scott, it was Dwight. And it didn't have a sandwich with him

"Get up" He said with a tone

I did was he was told and stood up. He grabbed my arm "Start walking"

I began walking and we walked down the hall. I looked around the rooms but none were open. We entered a room. It was a nice little room, hard to believe there was something like this down here. Dwight shoved me inside while he closed the door. Negan was inside with Lucille hanging over his shoulder. I took a hard swallow

Negan smiled "It's Haley right?"

I stayed silent

"You look like shit" He said moving his head "Dwight didn't I tell you to take care of her"

"I am. But she's stubborn like Daryl" Dwight said

I stayed quiet. Just hearing them talk about Daryl made me want give them a shiner

Negan lightly chuckled "Oh yea, I forgot. You and Daryl are thing right?" He moved around slowly

Again I stayed silent and my eyes stuck to the ground. Negan hadn't spoken; I'm guessing he was waiting for me to speak.

"What does she not speak?" Negan asked

I breathed in and out trying to keep myself calm

Negan clicked his tongue a few times. He moved Lucille right in front of me. I didn't move my head at all. But I finally moved my eyes and looked at him

He chuckled "Wow" He put Lucille back on his shoulder and moved around the room "I like you Haley" He turned back to me

I took a quick look around the room, it was nice and small. Negan took notice that I was looking around

"You like this room?" He asked

I looked at him again "You can have it all. I just need you to do one thing for me" He leaned back and pointed Lucille at me "Haley, I am a good man. The things I do are suppose to be done. Now I am truly sorry about your friends. Your here now, and I need you to know I am everywhere. Dwight who are you?" He didn't take his eyes off of me

"Negan" Dwight said

Negan chuckled "You can have all of this" He said referring to the room "I just need you to answer that one question. Who. Are. You?" He asked slowly

My eyes didn't come off of his. No way I was going to kneel to him. He killed Glenn and Abraham. He waited for me to answer "I want to see him"

Silence completely filled the air right after I said that. Negan looked at me with those wild looks he sustains. He clicked his tongue again

"Well" He said swinging Lucille over his shoulder "That wasn't the answer I was expecting" He twirled around and I leaned my head back; Lucille barely missed my head. He took only one step forward and turned back around to me "So, I am going to give you 12 hours to figure it out. And I better have the right answer" He emphasized on the last couple words as he leaned back

Dwight began to open the door

"Please, I have to see him" I said while Dwight then grabbed onto my arm

I tried fighting but all Negan did was laugh while Dwight pushed me outside. He lead me back to the room and pushed me inside causing me to fall "Please!" I exclaimed and turned to Dwight

"Oh you'll see Daryl again. When we all visit Alexandria today" He said as he closed the door and locked it

I gasp softly. Was he serious? I waited only a couple hours until Dwight opened the door again. He threw some shoes at me

"Put those on" He said. I looked at the dirty worn out shoes and looking up at Dwight to see him smirking at me

I rolled my eyes and put them on. Not my style but I guess. I put them on and I stood up. I walked out and stood outside while he closed the door

"Don't try anything. Because you will get a punishment sweetheart" He whispered in my ear "Start walking"

That sent chills down my spine. I began to walk and we ended up outside. The sun shined so brightly causing me to go blind for a couple seconds. Once I could see again there were a couple trucks sitting there. I turned my head to my left and my heart fluttered. Daryl and I met eyes. I could see it, the pain he was in. Dwight pushed me forward and I had no choice but to climb on the back of the truck. It was enclosed while Dwight climbed next to me. Daryl went on a different one. By the time I knew it we had taken off and we were at Alexandria already. We climbed down and I finally had the chance to stand next to Daryl. Although, he wouldn't look at me; he just looked down at the ground.

The savior's were all around us as we were standing outside the big gate. Negan walked up to the gate and whistled in the process. He then leaned up against it and knocked on the gate with Lucille and chuckled "Little pig little pig, let me in" He charismatically sung.

I watched as the gate slowly opened revealing Aaron. My eyes softly widen when I saw him. He was practically me best friend in this place.
