Daryl x reader

i found you

Daryl POV
I haven't found one note from Y/N. Beth said she made it out. Right now we're in a funeral home, er, being chased out of one.

I ran out and found Beth's bag, but a car was driving off. I started running after it but got exhausted at a 4 way road and had no idea where they had gone now. All I know is it was a car with a white cross on the back.

(For your information, I don't remember everything from the following parts about the guys with Joe, if that's his name, other then joe lost his life to Rick taking a bit out of his neck and you have to say claimed to have something with this group.)

"Look guys, we found us someone who could join us"

"What are you?"

"Sorry, my name is Joe and yours is?"

"Daryl"

"Would you like to joint us?"

"Until I find my group, fine"

"Ok. We're looking for somepeople. One of 'em killed our friend"

"Ok." Sounds like something someone from my group would do.

"Ok. Rules are you have to claim what's yours and no lying. Deal?"

"Fine"

Y/N POV
I saw some people surrounding someone. I ran right by them but I think someone noticed.

"Joe, someone or something just ran by" a man said.

"Follow it" another, I'm guessing Joe, replied.

I kept running but then I got surrounded by men from that group.

"Well look what we've found, a nice women. Been quite awhile since I saw one of you." One said.

"Get away from me"

"Fiesty. I like it"

"Claimed" a familiar voice said.

"Now wait up. You cant claim her it's not like she's your wife, daryl"

"I said claimed." I turned and there he was. "Hello, Y/N"

"And she's got a pretty name"

"Now, now, we can't touch her if she's been claimed" Joe said

"I found her"

"Technically yes. But it's also that technically Daryl and this nice young lady have known each other for quite awhile. How long, Daryl?"

"Around the beginning. We had two children" he empathized the had.

"Now see there, that love. Bring children into this world. We can't take this from them, unless Daryl dies."

"Lay one finger on him, and you'll rue the day you ever crossed me path." I said placing my hand over one of my knives.

"Now, no need to me rash Miss?" Joe said

"Y/N"

"Thank you. Two rules. You have to claim something as yours, as you witnessed, and no lying."

"Got it" I stepped back towards Daryl, wrapping my hand in his. We walked for awhile until we found a car dealership. "Claimed" and I hoped into a van, dragging Daryl with me.

"Did you do as I said?"

"Yes. Did you get any of my notes? Expecially the one about the alcohol?"

"I think you were in different places or something, because I'm thinking you were a day behind us."

"What happened to Beth anyway?" I said as I made two pillows with the baby blankets.

"Got taken"

"Oh... Well. We're together agian. I'm not leaving your side for awhile now"

"Wasn't gonna let you. Expecially with this group" he smiled.

"Heh. Your like a dog, protective over your property. But technically, I'm not yours, yet"

"Who's a father figure from our group to you?"

"Rick. Dale was, then Hershel, but well" the I realized why Joe seemed so familiar and was so nice to me, it was my father. "Or you can ask my father. He's Joe"

"Leader of this group?!"

"Yep... I thought he died" I pulled a picture out of my backpack and showed Daryl. "That might be why he was so nice to me"

"Holy fuck. Does he know?"

"I don't know if he remembers"

"Tell him"

"Daryl, the only time my dad was around was when he was drunk and abusing me."

"Oh... I'll come with for you to tell him. We tell him in the morning"

"Ok...." I looked up at Daryl "he tries to kill me, your responsibile"

"He tries to kill you, I'll kill him"

"But then you'd die due to killing him"

"no I won't. And if I do, then you have to continue fighting on, for me, for us."

"Ok...."

----------

"Hi, uh, Joe?"

"Y/N, right?" Joe said.

"Yea.. I have a picture to show you" I pulled the picture of us and my mother out of my backpack, then handed it to him

"What's this?"

"It's a picture of you-" I pointed at him "-my mom-" I pointed at her "-and me" I pointed at me.

"So, what are you saying?"

"Your..... Your my dad... You probably don't remember"

"I remember some of the time I was with you and your mother.... Are your scars gone?"

"No..." I rolled up my sleeve and showed him a scar from him "they never went away"

"Ahem. Joe, I would like to talk to you, alone." Daryl said.

"Ok. Y/N, can you give us a minute?"

"Yea..." I said then walked away.

Daryl POV
"So, I'm guessing you've figured out who I am, to Y/N, I mean" I said.

"Her friend? I know you two know each other pretty well"

"I'm her boyfriend. Since about three months after the outbreak, so I was trying to find a father figure to her"

"And you want to marry her?"

"Yes. I wanted to ask you first"

"Has she told you of our history?"

"A little. She told me you were drunk and would beat her. My father was the same, and it got worse after my brother left."

"I was drunk, quite often. And I beat her both when I was drunk and when I wasnt. You may have her hand in marriage"

"Thank you" I smiled and Joe nodded. I walked away, then I said over my shoulder "By the way, you had two grandchildren. They both died, but there were alive" and I walked away.

"Hey, Y/N"

"What did you want to talk to Joe about?"

"If I could have your hand in marriage, if you want to marry me"

"..." She looked at me "are you serious?"

"Yes. Y/N, will you be my Mrs. Dixon?" (God, so cheesy)

She smiled and her eyes had tears. She nodded "of course" she hugged me. 

"Joe, I found them" I heard, a bit in the distance. They walked pretty far ahead of us.
