Beth's P.O.V

As I clung to Daryl on his motorcycle, my thoughts ran widely. After the night I, we all had, how could my mind not wander. First my thoughts went to Maggie and dad. I hope they got out. Unlike Patricia. I saw her go down. I took her outside with me so we could escape. But I turned around and a walker was biting her neck. I screamed. I stabbed the walker in the head and laid her down gently. "No." I whispered. "G-Go be w-with the man y-you love. I've s-seen the way you look at him." She whispered. What does she mean by that. "Sh. You go be in peace. W-With Otis." She closed her eyes and I stabbed her in her head gently. That's when I went crazy. Taking out walkers. I had enough by then. THEY TOOK AWAY EVERYTHING I HAD. If Maggie and dad didn't make it out. I-I don't know what I would do. I was crying on Daryl's shoulder and he pulled over. There were no walkers around so we were safe. For now. He looked back at me. "Hey, you ok." I wiped my eyes. "Y-Yeah I was wondering, what if Maggie or my dad didn't make it? What if I'm the last Greene what if-" I was cut off by Daryl putting his lips to mine. As he pulled away gently he stared back at me. He cleared his throat. "We need to get to the road. They'll leave us behind if we don't get there." He said. "Daryl." "Don't. Just get on the bike." "O-Ok." I whispered and got on the bike.

Daryl's P.O.V

WHY THE FUCK DID I JUST DO THAT! Oh I don't know, I just, I just looked at her and saw that she was scared. A-And I didn't like seeing her hurt then something came over me and. AGH! If Hershel found out he'd kill me. One thing shocked me though. She kissed me back. Who kisses me back. I'm nothing. As I pulled into the highway i saw all the cars. Maggie was crying into Hershel's shoulder. "I-I went to find her and she wasn't in her room. We had to go." She whispered. "Hey Maggie." I said. "I got her." Maggie turned around and Beth ran to her and Hershel. "Oh my god! I'm so sorry. I tried to find you. W-Where were you." "I looked out my window and saw them everywhere. I ran downstairs and saw Patricia. I got my knife and ran out the back door with her looking for people, but all I saw was walkers." "Wait where's Patricia?" Maggie questioned. "S-She died. I thought she was behind me but a walker was biting her neck. I couldn't save her." Beth said. "You did good." I said. She turned to me and glared at me. "HOW DID I DO GOOD! PATRICIA DIED BECAUSE OF ME!" "No, she didn't. You tried, but you got yourself out of there. Alive. You have your family with you and you survived." Beth just looked to the ground after I said that. "It's getting dark we need to find shelter for the night." Rick said. Everyone got in their cars. Rick, Carl, and Lori. In one. Hershel, Glenn, Maggie, and Beth. Together. Carol and T-Dog in another. And me on my bike. Well Merle's bike. Not mine. I realized something as I was driving down the road. Shane is dead. Andrea is too. We pulled over to a house and cleared it out. We figured out that we were all infected, and everyone started to question Ricks leadership. Not me. He's the best person we have to be in charge right now. So who gives a flying shit if he killed Shane and kept a secret from us. Shane drew on him and it's not like Lori didn't keep the secret from Rick that she fucked Shane, when he was supposedly 'dead' in the hospital. Lori is also pregnant. Great another mouth to feed. As for Beth. She is doing real good. Taking care of Lori. Speaking of pregnancy I need to talk to her. "Hey Beth, can I talk to you for a second." I said. She nodded and we went outside. "Beth. I need you to take this. And just please see." I said handing her pregnancy test. She gasped and looked at me. "Y-You think he-" "I don't know I just wanna be sure." I said. She nodded and went into the woods. It took her about five minutes when she came running back and jumped into my arms hugging me. "I'm not pregnant!" She squealed. "That's great." I whispered hugging her back. "It's getting late you need some sleep." I said. "And so do you." She said tugging me inside. "No I don't." I muttered. "If you don't get sleep you'll be grumpier than usual in the morning. Now get some sleep." She said sitting me down beside her. We were in the upstairs living room and there was a couch. I laid down on the couch and she laid down beside me. "Beth what are you doing." "Sleeping. Unless you want me to sleep on the floor, and I'm not letting you sleep on the floor. How would my dad feel if he saw you, the man, on the confortable couch while I sleep on the cold floor?" She said with her eyes closed. "Shut up and go to bed." I muttered and she laughed.
