His name's Jesus (The walking dead)

Chapter 3

Jesus POV

I sit next to Charlie's bed in the Infirmary as they call it. It's really just a house. She's sound asleep hopped up on some pain pills and antibiotics. The girl Denise is less trained than Dr. Carson, but she has better drugs. I hope this will work so I can finally see her laugh as loudly as she used to without wincing. Daryl's been coming in and out for the last couple days talking to me and Denise to see how she's doing. He usually looks at me then leaves. I think he feels like he's intruding if he stays because from what Charlie told me that's a Daryl thing to do. I hear the door open again and I see Daryl peek through.

"Hey," Daryl says softly to not wake up Charlie.

"I'll just go," Daryl says and starts walking out. I stand up and walk over there.

"Daryl no," I say sternly and he turns back around.

"You're getting your ass back in there and talking to me. Or listen to me I don't care, but you're not leaving." I tell him putting my foot down. He surprisingly nods and walks back in. I stand there for a second shocked that actually worked and close the door. He sits in a chair on the other side of Charlie. I sit back down in my seat and stare at him. I understand what Charlie meant about him being cute. His hair's all greasy and he's caked with dirt, but he really is very attractive. I can't really see his eyes since he's constantly hiding behind his hair. Every time I see his he's wearing that vest so, you can see how huge his muscles are. Maybe he just can't fit his arms in a regular shirt.

"What all did she tell you about me." He asked me while staring at her sleeping form. Her brown hair sticks to her face in a few places from sweating. She has an IV in her one arm which she was luckily asleep when they put that in. I turn back to Daryl unable to look at her for too long without crying.

"Everything, I mean everything. I know what your dad did to you. I know you had an older brother. I know you have a secret that you only ever told Charlie unless you told someone here. I know that your mom died in a house fire. I know you were there the night Charlie's brother died and you almost died too. I know that you are the only family Charlie had after her brother died and she loves you more than anything." I tell him and he stares at me. He looks confused again. He's about to say something, but Charlie groans.

"Jesus, I just had the weirdest dream." She says tiredly without opening her eyes.

"Really?" I ask softly and she smiled. She nods a little and laughs.

"Daryl was there. Except he was older and looked like he had ten times as much muscle. There was this other guy too he was kinda cute. He was the only straight guy there." She laughed at the end making Daryl and I snort.

"Daryl's actually here," I tell her and she frowns. She groans again.

"Don't lie to me, Jesus. That's not a very holy thing to do." She mumbles then laughs at her own joke.

"I'm serious, open your eyes," I tell her laughing again. She laughs a little and I can tell she is not going to remember any of this.

"No, if I open my eyes Mary Poppins will start singing again." She says and I look at Daryl confused.

"Her favorite movie." He informs me and I nod. "

I heard Daryl!" She said and opened an eye and looked straight at Daryl. She smiled and closed her eyes again.

"You're cute." She giggles. Daryl rolls his eyes and sits back. She turns her head and looks at me.

"Shh. Don't tell Jesus." She said putting her finger up to my mouth.

"Don't tell him what?" I ask her and she laughed.

"Don't tell Jesus I caught him staring at Daryl. I think those two would make some cute babies." Daryl looked at her with wide eyes and I looked at her like she was completely stupid.

"Charlie guys can't have babies," I tell her and she scuffs.

"Yeah, but you could always try if you know what I mean." She laughs proudly at her joke. I roll my eyes at her and the door opens. A small Korean man walks in and looks at us.

"You look like a puppy," Charlie commented looking at the Korean man. He smiles at her then looks at me.

"Pain killers?" He asks knowing how strong they are. I nod and he laughs. "I'm Glenn." He says and sticks his hand out.

"Paul," I told him and took his hand and shook it.

"No, your name is Jesus you little prick. His name's Jesus." Charlie told Glenn she was coming to her senses a little more now.

"Jesus?" He asks me and I nod.

"It's a nickname my friends gave me before the dead started walking," I told him and he nodded. "Before you ask why I will tell you," Charlie spoke up slurring her words. "His name is Jesus because he is inhumanly beautiful and he is like a god damn Ninja. He's like boom, pow before you even know what's happening. Like what?" She explains to Glenn dragging out what a little too long. Daryl grunts as if to agree with Charlie.

"I want food," Charlie announced all of a sudden. Denise walks in again for the third time that day.

"Hey, I see you're awake," Denise said kindly to Charlie. Charlie smiled at her.

"Denise! I like you." Charlie yells and I wonder how she knows her name. She must have heard it while she was sleeping or woke up. Who knows.

"Can I have chocolate?" Charlie asks Denise.

"Sadly I don't have any to give you even if you could," Denise told Charlie. Charlie pouts like a child. Charlie grabs my hand suddenly making me jump. "Can we stay? I don't want to see Gregory again I might stab him." She says to me. I laugh at her remark.

"That's up to Rick, not me," I tell her and she turns to Daryl.

"Can Rick say no to a dying girl?" She asks Daryl and he smirks at her mischievous mind. He shakes his head no and she smiles. "Someone bring me Rick and let me act oh, so sick." She tells everyone in the room and Daryl stands up. He and Glenn leave to go get Rick. I watch Daryl leave. Once he's out if the door I look back at Charlie. She's looking at me in disgust.

"What?" I ask her and she laughs.

"You just totally checked him out!" She said excitedly.

"I did not," I say my voice rising at the end unexpectedly.

"Yeah, you did," Denise said from beside me and I realized she was still in the room. Charlie smiled at me. It was finally a genuine smile that wasn't secretly filled with pain.

"I missed you," I whispered to her and she looked at me and smiled softly.

"I know." She whispered back and smiled sweetly.
