I walked out of the cell and toward the door to leave when Hershel stopped me."Hey Riley come here please." He said

"Yes." I said walking into the doctoring cell

"Sit down and let's take the stitches out. They should be healed enough to hold your wound back together just don't use it a bunch be careful with it okay don't strain yourself." Hershel said taking the stitches out of my arm.

"Thanks." I said after he was done."Take care and watch out for Ryan while I'm gone."I said

"Will do." Hershel said hugging me and telling me good luck.

I left the cell block and headed down the slightly lite hallway which connected the entire prison together. I made my way down to C after walking for a few minutes due to the size of the prison. I opened the cell blocks door and walked inside heading for the stairs. I climbed to the top and walked to my cell, pushing back the curtains I walked inside. I grabbed my black all weather conditions jacket, arrows,bullets,knives,my katana,my four pistols two for my hip and two for my legs,a belt for my bullets to go around my waist since my arrows could be stuck on my crossbow, and then obviously my crossbow.I looked around and decided that that should be enough. I headed toward the door to my cell walked out of it pulled the curtains shut, and closed the metal bar door. I turned an headed for the stairs until I climbed down them and walked outside into the hot sun. I made my way over toward the garage where I saw Daryl loading the car. He was shoving a few boxes, ammo and gas cans in the back of the yellow hummer.

"Ready?" Daryl said facing me

"Yeah." I said not thrilled on going."You drive."

"Okay hop in."He said getting inside the driver side.

I got in the car and set my stuff in the back seat. Daryl then drove us out of the gate and down the road. It was a quite slow long ride. We sat there not making a sound. I looked up at the sky through my window. "Haring sky soon wet soon dry."

"Huh." Daryl asked

"My mom used to say when the sky looked scaly like it does now that we would get rain soon. And she would say pink sky at night sailors delight. Saying if it was gonna storm or something when it was pink in the morning." I said

"Oh." He said chuckling. I just turned back around and looked out the window. "Hey what's wrong?" Daryl asked grabbing my hand that was on the console and enveloping it in his.

We drove until dark and pulled up to a small town. Using the head lights we looked around the deserted place.

"Hey there's a hotel we could go and clear it out and sleep in there and head out again in the morning."Daryl said pulling into the motels parking lot.

"Sounds good." I said grabbing my bow.

"Let's go." Daryl said opening his door an I followed suit."Ready?"

"Ready." I said as I kicked in the door.

"Let's look around."He said

"Okay." I said going the opposite way as him.

"Wait...hey where you going?"He said noticing what I was doing

"I'll be fine just check that end." I said not acknowledged him and just moving down the hall toward a open room.

Once we finished clearing the motel.I found the biggest room in the place and we decided to sleep in there for the night.

"Hey you coming to bed." I said walking outside where Daryl was leaning against a pole outside. But he just stared off into space. "What's wrong?"

"Huh oh um nothing just thinking." He said

"Can I ask about what?" I said

"Everything...life now and before....you..."He said looking at me

"Oh.."I said

"If you don't mind can we not talking about it." He said looking at me.

"Okay that's fine." I said looking out into the star lite sky."Well I'm gonna head to bed."I said turning around

"Wait....come here." Daryl said grabbing my arm.

"Yes." I said as he pulled me up against him

"Hmmm nothing I just wanted to kiss you under the stars." He said placing a tender but growing kiss on my lips.

"Mmm." I said

"Good night." He said kissing me once more but on my forehead before releasing me so I could walk back inside the room.

I walked inside the room and shut the door behind me. I walked over to the king sized bed and pulled back the red silk covers as crawled inside. As soon as my head hit the pillow I was out into a deep blissful sleep.

About and house later

I felt the bed dipping down on the edge. I rolled over and could feel Daryl laying beside me. I laid in the bed and could smell a rotten stench. Ahhh! I screamed something had latched it's self to my leg and was beginning to pull. What was happing?! I screamed and the room went silent.
