Daryl's POV

I sat there with Beth for hours only leaving once to go to the washroom.when i came back she was still out cold.

"Beth I'm so sorry,please come back to me, i cant lose you Beth. please please come back to me i cant live without you your the only reason i have left for living . i need you Bethy."

Beth's POV

I woke up hearing Daryl talking i assumed he thought i was still asleep. he was holding my hand in his with his head resting on them.i didn't open my eyes i just listened to Daryl talk

" Beth please please come back to me i can't live without you.I'm so sorry for being a jackass all the time. your the only reason i have left for living. i need you bethy.i don't even want to think what id do if i lost you" and with that i put the hand he wasn't holding, onto his head and said  " you don't have to" he looked up at me and started uncontrollably smiling

"OH MY GOD  Beth i thought you were dead you scared the shit outta me "

Daryl's POV

"how much of my rant did you hear" i asked whipping the tears off my face and looking her in her ocean eyes

" i heard a Little bit of what you said before i put my hand on your head but you were just saying the same things like begging me to come back to you because you needed me and you couldn't live without me. i guess I'm pretty awesome if you cant live without me " she smirked.

i grunted in return and walked out of the room to the kitchen getting her, her cereal and handing it to her when she sat on the couch. i just continued working on my bows like the last few days didn't even happen. i sat there shutting everyone and everything out. including Beth

* a few hours later*

Beths POV

it had been hours later and Daryl hadn't talked to me since his little rant, maybe its cause i made fun of him for needing me but i shouldn't of i guess cause i need him too

"Daryl? whats wrong?" i asked.he grunted and shrugged as an answer.

"okay then, have fun being in your little bubble once again"   

and here i was thinking i finally broke threw that hard shell of Daryl's but no apparently not hes just going to keep all of emotions locked up so no one can reach them i thought me and Daryl were friends but i guess not i guess hes just here to keep me alive so he doesn't have the feeling that he let me die.

-Later That Night-

Daryls POV

"I'll sleep on the couch" Beth snapped at me

"no Beth you go sleep on the bed and ill sleep on the couch it will be easier for me to protect you if I'm out here "

"fine Daryl whatever you say, i guess were jut gonna go back to how we were in the beginning right? your going to grunt and protect , im not complaining about you protecting me but the grunting really that's all you have to say to me. Daryl i just about died the other day and all you have to do is grunt and tell me to go to bed."

i didn't say anything back she just stared at me for a minute then continued

"whatever Daryl GOOD NIGHT!!" she screamed the last part.

i don't know how but her little rant actually made me feel like im doing something wrong which i don't think i am. i just need to be in my bubble its the only way i can keep myself and the people i love from getting hurt

Beths POV

i ran upstairs holding back all my tears. i couldn't believe all he would do is sit there and pretend nothing happened.the last few days have been really hard but we need each other after something like that. i actually began to believe that Daryl was opening up to me and that we were becoming closer. i thought  this as i let out a loud sob.how could Daryl be so nice then just completely shut me out again. i cant handle this anymore i need him hes the only person in this world that i have left. hes the only person that i have ever felt this much love for and now hes just gonna shut me out like i don't even know him. i started crying like a maniac. after a few seconds of crying really loud, Daryl bursted threw the door.

" Whats wrong?" Daryl asked with a bit of a scared tone.

"you Daryl your whats wrong " i said hiding my face in my arms.

"what did i do?" he asked starting to get  annoyed

" are you fucking kidding me Daryl"i was standing up now and yelling my heart out "your shutting me out again. you cant just be here by yourself you have to be here and be with me to."

"what do you want from me " he said staring me down with a type of sadness in his eyes. 

" i want you to care i want you to stop acting like you don't give a crap about anything."  i Replied

" Beth i do care about things. i care bout you and i don't want to lose you   "

" well You can't keep treating me like shit just cause your afraid"i yelled at him

" i ain't afraid a nothing" he said on the verge of tears

" then kiss me" i said in almost a whisper
