Season 2

Daryl's Point of View:

I didn't exactly want B going out with Rick. But I trust Rick that he'll keep her safe and that she'd keep him safe. It's not weird, but weird to see B walking around and talking. Before, she was this small girl that just kept to herself, obviously never said anything, but she always seemed scared. I used to hear her crying, but now she isn't. She's not scared, she's out helping everyone, she's even volunteering to do things. She's evolving, she's becoming strong and fearless. And I love that about her. I just hope nothing bad happens to her.

Bobbie's Point of View:

Rick and I follow Sophia's prints for about an hour. But I realized the farther we were out, the more faint her footprints became. How?

"Tracks are gone." Rick says.

"No. They're faint, they aren't gone." I point out. I look up and followed her prints, then pointing out. "She came through here." I say.

"How can you tell? I don't see anything. Dirt, grass." Rick says.

"You want a lesson on tracking or you wanna find Sophia?" I ask. I sigh and stand up, looking at Rick. "I'm sorry. That seemed rude or mean. I just wanna find her." I say.

"It's okay." He shakes his head.

"Come on. Her tracks aren't completely gone, we can still track her." I say and continued on, but I made sure to walk slowly so I wouldn't lose her.

"So what's goin on between you and Daryl." Rick suddenly says.

"You and your wife must talk a lot." I say.

"I noticed it. You two seem close." He says.

"We're just friends."

"Not in his eyes."

"What do you see in his eyes?" I frown.

"Anybody can look at someone and have that light and sparkle thing look in their eyes. Anyone Daryl looks at that isn't you, he's got that sparkle." He says.

"What if Daryl and I were together? It's not like anybody would make a big deal about it. You all treat him like an asshole. He's not. You just catch him in the wrong moments." I defend.

"Maybe you're right. He's changed ever since you showed up, from what I've heard." He says. "I saw you getting him to stop from attacking Jenner back at the C.D.C. He stopped. And when Jacqui said she was staying, he pulled you away. He didn't want you staying either."

"So...you think Daryl likes me."

"I think he likes you more than a friend."

"And I think everyone should just mind their business. I already told Daryl having a relationship isn't going to happen- with anyone! Not just him." I say.

"Why not? You can't stop something from happening."

"But I can avoid it. I do this thing called ignoring my problems until it just fades away in a cloud."
