Daryl Dixon - Norman Reedus Imagines/Smut

Pregnant - D.D Fluff

“that's the fourth test, it's still positive” Maggie says almost exasperated with your frantic need to pee on every test Glenn can get his hands on. You've been so careful with Daryl, condoms and all. It's not that you don't think he'd be a good Father, you'd seen him fawning over sweet little Judith enough to make your heart melt but it was whether you were ready for a child. Maggie had been trying to help you come.to terms with it all, she had a few scares herself back at the prison but now was happily pregnant now in Alexandria. “He is gonna flip out” you worry but Maggie just laughs knowing that Daryl would in fact be delighted by the news you're pregnant. “He won't flip out, you just gotta calm down and go tell him” Maggie said gathering the positive tests and putting them in your hand. “If it helps, I practised in the mirror what I was going to say to Glenn before I said it. I wanted it to come out right, you know?” Maggie said softening towards you, it's good advice you think and you hug Maggie and pat her bump before stuffing the tests in your pocket and heading to the house you share with Daryl. He won't be home for another few hours, he'll hunt until it's too dark to go on without a flashlight which is plenty of time to get this speech worked out. There's no doubt you want to keep the baby but telling Daryl is the big clincher. You stand before the mirror and take a deep breath, “Daryl I'm pregnant” you try but it seems a bit rushed, “We're pregnant” sounds just as awful as “We're expecting” and you look like an idiot in the mirror trying to seem natural and unfazed by this life altering news. You switch it up for a lighter approach but it seems even more weird so you try for an aggressive approach just to be funny, “Listen here Buddy, I'm pregnant and we are having this baby, better get to shaping up cos it's happening” you say in a mock angry voice before dissolving into a fit of giggles that leaves you clutching the basin as you double over which makes the pregnancy tests fall off the counter and slide across the tiles floor. “You're pregnant!” you hear behind you and see Daryl standing open mouthed in the doorway, he'd heard your little announcement but definitely not the way you'd planned but it was out there now, no taking it back. “Surprise” you manage to say before he sweeps you up in a bear hug and twirls you around the bathroom. “I can't believe it! I'm gonna be a dad!” he shouts loud enough for Rick who is outside to hear, in return you hear a muffled "Congrats!" Being shouted from your front lawn, now everyone knows. In that moment you realize that despite the world going to hell and back, this child is a blessing, the future of Alexandria. You war your arms around Daryl and feel his joy radiate between you like electricity, this is what true happiness looks like.
