┏━━━━━━ Kayla's pov ━━━━━━┓
I woke up cuddling closer to the blanket since it was a bit cold out today. That's when I heard a manly laughed and opened my eyes a bit alert. Turning slowly, I saw Daryl lying on his side of the room, fiddling with an arrow in his hand.
" Morning beautiful."
" Daryl?" I asked, sitting up and holding the blanket close to me." When the hell did you get out of bed ?"
" Hershel said I was cleared, so I got here maybe ten minutes ago." He said while I played my boots on and placed one of his flannel's on." Oh, and Kayla."
" Hmm ?"
" Andrea is going to come see you soon. Be nice if you can." He hinted and I glared at him not wanting her to speak with me." I understand why you're mad at her, but she really felt bad about everything. Be light with her. No fighting."
" Cross my heart," I said, playfully rolling my eyes and made my way to the chicken coop ahead, seeing Mom and Carl were feeding the chickens.
" Yeah, you see my house around here, punk ?" Mom asked before throwing the chicken food at him. I laughed and started helping them." Um, Kayla, has Shane talked to you ?"
" No. I haven't talked to him since the CDC. Why is everything okay?"
" Oh, nothing, don't worry." Mom said a bit oddly, but I decided to ignore it.
" Kayla! Kayla! Can you take me to the lake to play ?" Carl asked, jumping up and down excited. I turned to mom, seeing she nodded.
" Sure."
" Come on, Kayla !" Carl cheered, grabbing my hand and running down to the lake. He took his shoes off quickly and didn't even bother to change his clothes before he jumped into the lake, splashing everywhere.
" Be careful there, Carl."
" Kayla, hop in! The water feels good."
" Don't you think it's a bit chilly to be hopping in ?"
" What are you? Scared ?" He said, knowing how to get under my skin.
I laughed, taking my boots off before jumping in." Yeah, butthead !" I said, splashing him with the water and hearing him laugh. I was going to hold this moment forever. Just my brother and I bonding again like the world hadn't gone to shit." Carl, go get change and find Mom, okay?"
"Okay." Carl said while we both got out of the water and walked up the hill soaking wet.
I grabbed my boots heading the Daryl's tent and squeezed my hair of water not wanting to went the inside. Daryl looked up surprised when he seen me.
" What the hell happened to you ?"
" I won a splashing fight against a twelve year old." I said grabbing a new set of clothes." Do me a favor and turn around."
" Why ?"
I laughed pointing to my clothes," I want to change."
" Whatever." He grumbled slowly turning on his other side and staring at the walls of the tent." Hurry up. My side hurts."
" Awe, you poor little man." I teased quickly getting out of my wet clothes and placing on drier ones." Okay, turn."
" About time."
" Oh, hush up. How's your head ?" I asked and he lightly moved his hand forward to the wound.
" Better."
