"How much do you love me?" Daryl asks me.
"A lot." I answer.
"Good 'cause I just wanted to know if you would marry me?"
"Yes!" I yelled.
All of a sudden Daryl's eyes turned black and he had a knife in his hand. I started to panick. My heart raced and my hands shook.
"D-Daryl what are you doin'?!" I stuttered.
"Making sure you and I will be together forever." He then brought the knife to his stomach and then jabbed it into him, making blood splatter on my face. I scream as he falls to the ground and then weakly brings the knife to my stomach.
"Daryl, NO!"
Then, I woke up. I jolted up from my sleep, my palms sweaty and my heart racing. Glenn had come over to me and comforted me, rocking me in his arms.
"Its okay Ash, I'm here for you. You're okay." He whispered in my ear. "It was just a dream." His last words echoed in my head. Maybe that's all this is. Just a dream. Maybe, there aren't millions of monsters roaming around the world.
"You wanna talk about it, Ashlynn?"
I shake my head and he hugs me tighter. Hot tears fall down my face. Just thinking about Daryl, makes me scared. What if he's like that when I actually talk to him again?
"Glenn, I can't do this. I can't talk to Daryl again. My dream, he proposed to me and then he tried to kill us both."
"Ashlynn, listen Daryl isn't like he was when we were younger. Yeah, he might be a little worse than before but, you just gotta warm up to him. I mean, maybe because you guys were so much closer, maybe it'll be easier to talk to him. Trust me, everything will be fine." Glenn says, trying calm me down.
"I- I just, I'm not sure Glenn." Tears start going down my eyes. "Ashlynn, please don't cry. I hate seeing the only person I have left cry or be upset." He says.
"What do ya mean? I thought ya had a wife." I ask.
"She died. I saw her go down. I mean, I have a kid but, I don't know what happened to him. He could be dead too." A tear slipped from his eye and I quickly embraced him in a hug.
"I'm sorry Glenn. I'll help you find your son. What's his name?"
"Bradley, Bradley Rhee." He said.
"Oh, Glenn that's so sweet. You named your son after my brother?"
He nodded his head and said, "It was the first thing that came to my head."
I smiled back at him. "Maybe he'll be like a mini Bradley." I laughed, "Like the same personality."
"I know what you mean Ash." He said.

(Later that day)
Glenn's POV
"I think we should start to head in for bed. Or at least you should." I tell her.
"I'm not tired though." She whined. Ashlynn looked at me and as of on cue we both started laughing.
"I guess we could both stay up for awhile." She nods and says, "Or we could pack up our stuff and start moving. Maybe find a house or who knows your son." She says.
I stare at her for a few seconds taking in her whole body. Her beautiful blue eyes sparkled and her brown wavy hair flew in the light breeze of the night.
It's incredible how much someone could change from being so, peppy to all serious but, humorous when they feel like it. She's perfect now. Beautiful. Gorgeous. Everything a guy wants in a girl.
"C'mon Glenn, lets get goin'." She said. I smiled at her and grabbed my bag.
-1 Hour Later-
Ashlynn's POV
"Woah, Glenn check it out!" I smiled. "Maybe the rest of your group is there." In front of us stood a 5 story hotel. I could already tell this place, would last all long time. "C'mon Ash lets go check it out." Glenn said and I nodded my head.
We both walked at the same speed but then I looked at Glenn and said, "Race ya!" And I took off running towards the building. It felt like everything was in slow motion. The wind in my face made my hair whirl around behind me and made me even colder than I already was.
I started to hear Glenn's heavy footsteps trailing behind me. I looked to my left and saw him with a big smile on his face. I can't even remember the last time I saw a smile that big on Glenn Rhee's face.
13 years old
"Wake up Ashlynn, it's your Birthday." I heard someone whisper. I groaned and opened my eyes that were still heavy with sleep. I could very little see four figures standing in my room. Two of them were obviously my dad and Bradley, the other two I wasn't sure about.
"Dad, who's the other two people?" I asked. I was now a little more awake now since it had been a few minutes.
"Don't be silly Ashlynn. Its Glenn and Daryl. Ya know our neighbors." He laughed. My eyes went wide and I quickly went into a sitting position on my bed. Why would my father let two boys u in my room while i still looked like crap?!
"Could ya guys go donstairs. I'm gonna get dressed. I'll be down in a minute." They all nodded their heads and headed down the stairs.
I closed my door and went right to my dresser. I pulled out my camo tank top and my jeans. I then walked over to my closet and pulled out my high tops. I laced them up, put my hair up in a pony tail, and then headed down stairs with the boys.
PRESENTTIME
"I won!" I cheered. "Yeah what ever Ford. I'll get you back." He said. I rolled my eyes at his comment. We finally reached the large building that we could possibly call home. It defenitley looked like one of the better hotels. You know with the big ass bathrooms and the king sized beds.
"I hope this place has some kinda back up generator. Then we could have power and a hot shower." Glenn said breaking the silence.
"Trust me this place probably does." I said answering his question. I opened the door to the lobby to be welcomed to the smell of death.
"Son of a dick! It reiks in here." I said cringing at the smell. I jumped when I felt someone tap me on the shoulder. Glenn looked at me and took his index finger, bringing it up to his lips warning me to be quiet. I nodded and suddenly realized what he was talkng about.
I silently face palmed myself and thought, "Please, oh please don't let this end up with Bradley." Right outside the doors to the pool was a group of about 50 walkers just minding their own business, probaby craving our flesh.
We quickly and quietly snuck past the doors into another room. I could tell it was defenitley the place where breakfast, lunch, and dinner was served. There was a bunch of tables and chairs filling the room. On the other side of the room was where the coffe, dressings, and utensils were held.
The side of the room across from us had two restrooms and a door that said, "GENERATORS INSIDE, STAFF ONLY" I smiled and ran to it. I walked in only having to take down two geeks, then flipping a few swithces and the place was lit up,and heated up.
"Nice job Ash! C'mon lets go find a room and take showers." He laughed. "Sounds like a plan." I smiled and we went on a hunt for a room.
