Back: A Bethyl Survival Story

Opening

Opening

When morning comes the walkers have diminished completely. I gently shake Beth awake and can tell dehydration has taken over her already.

"Let's get you water. Come on Baby Girl." I urge her up and we make it to the ladder. Once on the ground I carry her to the car. She seems pale. I'n hoping it's just dehydration and not sickness from the cold night. "Here. Drink this."

Lifting water to her lips, she slowly drinks some and then stops.

"Keep going. You. Need to rehydrate." She sits up in the bak seat and gently pushes it to me.

"So do you."

"Beth, you're more important right now than..."

"No Daryl. We both need water. You drink. There's more bottle back here and we're close to a river where we can refill. Please." I finally drink and she smiles. I know she's right, but I feel bad drinking the rest of the bottle. I'm just so thirsty. She is too. She cracks open another bottle and drinks a few sips before closing it up.

"We should head out. We need to get up to Maryland in the next few days. We have enough gas. We should be able to make it." Getting in the drivers seat, I let Beth sleep in the back. The whole drive has me thinking about what she said last night. Kids.

Kids. She wants kids. How can I have kids with her, if we live on the run. If we go from danger to more danger? Is it possible? Is it fair to them? To her? I feel terrible about false hope. Hope is pretty much a myth. There's never been hope for humanity. Never been hope for the future or for a cure. Earth is dead and so with it hope.

Stopping in the Capitol, Beth wakes up. She seems refilled with energy.

"Do you want me to drive? I think I can get us to Maryland." I give her a tired face of doubt. Sliding into the passenger seat, she gets up and sits in the driver's seat.

"Have you ever driven a car before?"

"My daddy's truck once or twice. It was a standard."

"Well this is an automatic, so you don't have to shift gears. It's pretty simple. Just keep it on the road going North. Don't hit anything. And don't stop unless it's a dire emergency. but let me know before you do okay? If you get tired pull over..."

"Daryl. I got it. Just go to sleep worry wort." She kisses my temple and buckles up. She starts driving and I quickly fall asleep.

My dreams are clouded by little children and Beth chasing them. It's nice to see her happy, even if it's a dream. To see her taking care of babies again. Judith.... huh, I wish that lil Asskicker was still out there somewhere. My dream turns sad and horrible. Walkers flood out of the pockets of my mind. Beth tries to fight em but she can't protect the kids an herself at the same time. I scream for her to run. Scream her name repeatedly, but can't get to her. My world is shaking and I hear her call back to me, but everything is slowed down! How do I get her? How do I save her and our children. Beth! Beth! "Beth...Beth.... BETH!!!"

"Daryl wake up.... Daryl!"

I jump awake to Beth shaking me awake and she looks frightened. I sit up with a jerk and them throw myself back against the seat. I breathe heavily, but can't catch my breath. Beth is on my arm in an instant.

"Breathe....Breathe... it's okay. I'm right here! It was bad dream... just a bad dream." She kisses my face all over and my scared eyes chase her back and forth across her face.

After a few minutes, I catch my breathe and Beth still looks at me, before starting the car up.

"Sorry. Didn't mean ta scare you, Darlin'."

"It's okay...."

"Now ya know why I don't sleep." I try to laugh through the tense air, but only seem like a dick doing it.

"Can I ask you something?"

"Sure."

"What was yer nightmare about?" Shit. If I tell her, she'll hate me. If I don't i'll be lying and that's even worse. Fuck am I in a pickle.

"It was about me wasn't it? You were screamin' my name. What happened?"

"I don't wanna talk bout it, Baby Girl. It was just a dream."

"Alright. Was jus curious." She keeps driving until we pull over to refill the tank with one of our back up cans we tied to the roof. As I fill up the gas can I can see Beth sitting in the drivers seat. She looks scared. Was it just the world again? Or Me? Putting the empty can back up top and checking the lines for security, I hop back in the car and she goes to start it, but I stop her.

"You alright?" Leaning over the center console.

"Yeah, just thinkin' bout the future and all?" Giving me a weary look, I don't see why we can't stop for a break.

"Why don't you slide on over here and I'll get yer mind offa that." She smiles and ends up on my lap. I scoot the seat all the way back and lower it, so her head doesn't hit the ceiling. "Do what you will my girl."

"Anything?"

"Anything." She gives me a devilish grin and start attacking my face with kisses as her hands unbutton my shirt an slides my vest off. She whips her top off and her bra and now we both sit in just our jeans. "Magnificent."

I look at both her breasts and can't hide my smile. They weren't the best I've ever seen, but I wouldn't pass em up.

She kisses down my chest and I find her on her knees in the space between the seat and the air bag. She undoes my pants and gently but forcefully pulls my dick out. She looks at me for a second and then goes to work. She rubs me up and down as she sucks on me. My eyes flutter, half opened-half closed. I can't take her lips down there. I try to hold still cause she gets her teeth on me quiet a bit if I move and that hurts like a bitch. She moans as she sucks. She bobs up and down and I told my head back and open my mouth a lil wider the farther she goes.

"Ohhh, Beth....Beth...mmmmmhmm baby." She sucks an strokes until we both feel my build up. As i'm about to warn her to take her mouth away,she does one more suck and stroke an I cum in her mouth. She tries to keep it in her mouth until she slides me out if her and some dribbles down her chin. "Baby, you been naughty. You have me on yer face."

As I think she's about to wipe it off her sticks her tongue out and laps it up and swallows. She sorta makes a gross face, but it's understandable. It's her frat time.

"Was it good?"

"The best. Oh Baby come here." I pull her to my lap and she avoids sitting on my dick, so as not to hurt me. She slides her pants off and quickly lines her self up with me and slides me in. Her back is against my chest and I start thrusting slowly in and out of her sex. I have my arms wrapped around her waist and hers are on top of mine. I pump inside her and she arches off of my chest. As we're going I can feel her start to tighten around me. I know she's about to cum, because her breathing becomes short and breathy.

"Do you want to cum?"

"Oh yes! Please Daryl! Please.... please let me cum.... please." I pump away in her and she hits it hard and powerful. She constricts her wet sex around me and she cums hard. I can feel myself about to do the same but quickly pull out and cum in a tissue from the console. "Oh!"

"Sorry Baby. Could cum inside you. Forgot the condom." She turns on my lap to face me. Putting her hands on both sides of my cheeks, she kisses me over and over again.

"It's getting late. We should probably just stay here tonight." Beth smiles and slides passed me naked. She clears a spot to sleep and pay the seat for me to follow. I slip to the back and lay beside her with her wrapped in my arms under a blanket. Body heat. What a nice heat conductor.

" Goodnight Baby Girl. I love you."

I feel her heart skip a beat.

"I love you too." She kisses me goodnight and we sleep.
