"Oh come on Rick! Ye' got 'er shot, she ain't gon' do nuthin'! They know where we are now an' it wasn't Megan who told 'em." Daryl snaps at Rick.

"Glenn and Maggie had no choice Daryl."

"Ye' really think Megan's gon' leave 'er family behind an' betray us? After everythin' she's done fer ye', fer Carl, fer all of us. Why ain't ye' treatin' Andrea like this huh? What did she ever do te' help?"

"She can be trusted."

"She wa' gone the same amount of time as Megs, she wa' at the same place! Yer givin' 'er a gun an' a car te' go back but ye' cant trust Megan who hasn't even left us, she's done as ye've asked. Yer treatin' 'er like ye' jus' met 'er! If Andrea is so trusted why is she leavin' us? Ye' know what the Governor is like yet ye'll let 'er go an' still think shes trustworthy."

"Daryl's right." Maggie walks over to us, she gives a small nod to Rachel who was with Darren. I smile lightly. "Megan's done nothing wrong Rick. Why is she getting worse punishment? You're letting Merle and Michonne help but not Megan? Why?"

"Lets go." Rick comments.

"I'm stayin' 'ere with Megs! Ye' gon' treat 'er like shit, yer gon' get it back." Daryl comments, Rick gives me a look before walking off with Maggie.

"Thanks Daryl."

"He shouldn't treat ye' like tha'."

"I know." I grit my teeth lightly as a small pain comes from my wound where I was shot.

"Ye' okay?"

"Yeah, just a little bit of pain. I've had worse."

"Ye' should rest Megs."

"I'm fine."

"I'm not askin' ye' te' rest, I'm tellin' ye' te'."

"Alright. But only cause you told me to so nicely." He rolls his eyes and walks me back to my cell, I lay on the cell bed. "Will you be okay with Rachel?"

"Yeah. Now get some sleep Darlin'." I nod.


          I wake up to the sound of Beth singing, I get up and walk out of my cell. No one was phased by me walking past, I made my way over to Merle who was still on the other side of the cells. I couldn't help but glance at Daryl every now and again, he had Rachel in his arms. She was asleep with her head on his shoulder.

"He's gettin' the hang of it." Merle says in a low voice trying his best not to be heard because Beth was singing, i look at him. "He's been so scared of bein' a dad cause he didnt want te' be like ours."

"He's nothing like your dad, neither of you are." I reply, he gives me a smile.

"Tha's good te' hear. Still think he's gone soft though." I laugh lightly.

"Yeah, I know."

"Ye've done a great job raisin' yer kids."

"Where'd that come from?"

"I just thought ye' should know."

"Thank you."

"It wa' hard not tellin' Daryl tha' he had kids, he said once tha' he only ever saw himself havin' kids with ye'. He didnt want nobody else when he had ye'."

"Really?"

"Yeah. He'd kill me knowin' I've jus' told ye' tha'." I grin.

"I'm glad you told me, cause I never thought he'd actually want kids."

"Yeah, we both never wanted kids. We didnt want our name te' live on cause of the shit we went through, I guess Daryl changed his mind after fallin' fer ye'. I couldn't be more happy for him." I raise an eyebrow at him. "Don't even think 'bout tellin' him I said tha'."
