Love finds his way / Bethyl

The next morning // Chapter 3

I woke up and everything felt like a dream.. Did i really kiss Daryl Dixon last night? I mean DARYL DIXON!! I smiled and looked beside me but the bed was empty, so I got up and changed my clothes to go downstairs and look out for Daryl. I found him sitting in the kitchen preparing breakfast. "Good morning, Mr. Dixon! I see you are already preparing our Breakfast" Daryl noticed me and smiled "Goodmorning lovely! Yes I do, seems like a pretty much normal morning right? Couldn't tell that the apocalypse is outside" he laughs. I just nood and smile at him. He's right, everything seems so normal here, we could live a pretty much normal life. We could build us a normal life here. "What are you thinking about?" Daryl asks while and distracts me out of my thoughts. "You know, we don't really get attacked from Walkers here.. We could have a normal life. I think we should stay here. What do you think about that?" he seems to think a minute.. "You're right. Maybe we should do that. But what about finding your sister, Rick and also all the others?" I don't know what do answer, are they even alive? What if not? It would be so disappointing and heartbreaking to find out.. "I dunno yet! What if they're not alive, Daryl? What if we never find them again while we could have a NORMAL life here?" I could feel my body start shaking, just the thought of them not being alive could break me again. Daryl noticed and walks towards me to keep me in a thigh hug. "Psh, don't think about that. We'll stay here okay? We will just look if it works out. The problem is we never stayed anywhere. All our homes got destroyed. The prison etc. We never had a permanent home." I know he is right.. "But I think, this could be our home. OUR HOME, Daryl" He noods and I know that he agrees with what I said. "I'm pretty sure they're still alive, okay? Maybe they'll find us here, or maybe we still find them. Don't give up hope." This are words I've hardly ever heard from him.. "What changed your mind to think this way?" I ask. "Well".. he smiles and looks at me. "Hm?" "You, you changed my mind. You changed me. To a better person, to someone who has hope and believes in good again. And damn, I love you for that. And never would I put you through any pain again, you'll never face any pain again, Beth. I'll never leave you." This words made me happy. Never have I felt that strong feeling for someone. Sure I've been in love several times. But Daryl, yes he is the one, the one I've always wanted. "I love you, Daryl" "I love you too, Beth" he places his Hand on my cheeks and gives me a passionate kiss. "So, breakfast?" "You damn tease" he smiled and I started laughing. This could really be a perfect, and sure normal life. With Daryl. Here. In our Home. We enjoyed our breakfast and then suddenly we heard someone coming towards our house. Daryl instantly got up and already had his crossbow out. "Imma do that, stay here baby." I sat down on my Chair and waited for him to come back. He opened the door and stood there in like shock. And then I couldn't believe which Voice I heard...
