We All Start As Strangers ~ A Daryl Dixon Fanfiction

Chapter 9 ~ A New Home

~~~~~~~~JESSIES P.O.V~~~~~~~

Daryl ran to my aid as soon as he saw me crying. He must think I'm a real wimp.

"Baby what's wrong?" he asked with worry in his eyes

I looked up at him with a tear threatening to leave my eye.

"My mom and sister.. there not here.." I said trailing off

Daryl helped me up and brought me to a cell and told me to lay down for a little bit he was going to ask around.

~~~~~~~~DARYLS P.O.V~~~~~~

I feel so bad for Jessie.. she doesn't deserve all this stress.. I just hope I find her mom and sister. I couldn't stand to see Jessie cry.

I walked up to rick.

"Hey Daryl! it's nice to see you again are you and Jessie alright?" he asked with a warm smile

"yeah. were fine.." I said with a little bit of anger in my tone.

"have you seen Jessie's sister and mom?" I asked.

Rick looked up with me with seriousness in his eyes.

"Well when the walkers.. surrounded the whole farm we all got split up.. most of the group didn't make it.."

he said

I looked at him with frustration, sadness and anger in my eyes.

I didn't want to have to tell Jessie the horrible news..

I thought for a little bit and I came to the conclusion that I should keep it to myself. and I'll go look for them when everybody is asleep..

I walked back to Jessie's cell.

"did you find them!?" she asked with excitement

"I asked and everyone said that they had wondered off with some of the group members to find supplies"

"oh.." she said.

"but don't worry I'm sure they will be back first thing tomorrow." I said kissing her forehead

she looked up at me with a half smile and laid her head down on the pillow

I climbed in the bed and laid next to her. she fell asleep on my chest. I waited and waited until I heard no noise in the jail. I slipped away from Jessie and grabbed my crossbow and jacket. I walked out of the jail and was surrounded by walkers. Running , Aiming , and Shooting. I wasn't going to let Jessie down no matter what I promise to bring them home. I thought to myself. I jumped onto my motorcycle barley making it out. I drove off into the dark following the faded yellow lines on the road. I was going back to the house. the farm.

~~~~~~~~JESSIES P.O.V~~~~~~

I was walking walking into darkness with every step It got darker.. walking farther into the darkness not really sure where I was going.

I woke up. screaming.

I looked to my left. Daryl wasn't there.

my stomach dropped. it ached. where is he? I thought I myself trying to hold back tears. I sat up in my bed and my feet hit the cold ground. I stood up and walked out of my cell. I don't really know where I was going. out. I guess.

I started walking off into a long dark hallway. I remembered my dream. I was living my dream. I was lost.

but I didn't care I had nothing anyways. I didn't have the people who ment most to me. what's the point anymore. I decided to just give up. I heard walkers. I guess they hadn't cleaned out the place. I saw them coming around the corner. there were at least 10 of them. I wanted to run but my feet were stuck to the floor my knees buckled I couldn't move. they got closer and closer. until we were face to face. they bit my neck. then my arms and legs. I was done for. they ran off after they had finished me. I was still alive but barley. my eyes got heavy I could see someone standing infront of me I couldn't tell who everything started to fade..
