I kicked and screamed at the top of my lungs and Daryl jumped from the bed. I scrambled through darkness looking for the night stand. Ah ha! I grabbed my pistol and pulled the trigger! Splat! The grip on my leg loosened and what ever it was hit the floor.
"Riley are you okay what happened?" Daryl said in a panic filled voice. I stared blankly into the darkness still frozen in shock. I heard Daryl shuffle around the room. Click! He turned on of the flash lights and shown it toward the floor on my side of the bed.
"Oh my gosh!" he said seeing the walker in front of me. His mouth gapped. "Oh my gosh Riley." He said seeing my face and the blanket. Where the walkers grabbed my leg was a blood stain soaking in. The stitching was tearing. I pulled my leg out from under tAw he covers and expected the worse. But I
ewas fine all there was a mark on my leg that was left from the pressure of the walkers clamping jaws. Shockingly it didn't brake the skin....thank god.
I still looked at the walkers body that I blew a huge hole into with my pistol. My breathes came slow and shallow. I don't know why this scared me so much it wasn't the first time a walker or a person almost killed me.
"Are you okay." Daryl said sitting and wrapping his warm arms around me.
"Yeah..I'm fine...I don't know why I'm so shaken up from this...I have been close to death like this before by a walker and a person....so I don't know why this is any different..." I said still I shock
"I think I know why...."He said and I turned to face him."Your afraid now since what happened with that psychotic bitch." He said making me stifle a small chuckle
"You see right through me." I said smiling and placed a surprised kiss on his lips.
"You okay now?" He asked me pulling me closer to his warm protective body.
"Yeah." I said looking him before snuggling back against him.
We laid back down and Daryl stayed awake and kept watch while I got some much needed rest. The next morning I woke up and everything was fine Daryl had kept his promise and stayed up to make sure nothing came in like the walker that almost bite me.
"We should head out." I said to him
"Oh your up...good morning and yeah I'll go start the car." He said
"Okay be there in a sec." I said and Daryl walked out the door.
"Ready." He asked me after a few minutes when I joined him in to truck.
"Yeah I'm ready." I said as we drove down the road.
I riffled through some of the contents of the truck in the glove department and found some home made CDs. I pulled one out and stuck it in the CD player. The song Civilian by Wye Oak blared through the speakers. I heard this song once before and marked it on my To Download List I had for the next time I went on iTunes. We drove down the main road and were singing the song having a good time I felt more alive like the world was back to normal....but soon as the song ended I was brought back to the cruel reality. I left out a sigh in disappointment. THUD!SCREACH! The wheels on the truck swerved when Daryl tried to re gain control of the truck after we hit a walker. The truck fish tailed back an forth as Daryl tried to control it. I found my self hanging upside down as the truck rolled down the road. It spun on it's roof on the pavement and was sent rolling through the guard rails and down a large hill. It rolled rapidly and came to a holt when it stuck a tree on my side.I opened barely opened my eyes and heard Daryl scream 'RILEY!' Before my eyes closed and I fell into a deep dark abyss.
