Daryl Dixon x reader (TWD fanfic)

Chapter Sixteen- Community

I kept looking over the wall waiting for Daryl, for anyone. No sign of a single soul, unless you're counting walkers. I leaned over the edge and looked down at the walkers.

"You guys have really fucked up my day." I chuckled as I looked at them. I shook my head and looked back up. I sighed and watched my post. I heard the radio come on and grabbed it. "What's up?"

"Fire your guns from your posts. Maggie. Sasha. Y/n." Eugene's voice blasted on the radio and I fired two shots into walkers from my gun.

"Copy." I responded and heard gunfire. I turned around not able to see anything, I kept firing until they stopped. I set my gun down and rushed down from my post to the commotion. I saw Tara flipping off Rick and I chuckled. "Everything good up there?"

"Yeah! Just an accident!" Tara called back and I smiled. Just an accident.

"Liam!" I picked up Liam as the tower fell into the wall. I ran as fast as I could to the Armory. For some reason my mind told me to go there. Like it would be safest. When I got inside there was no one there. I closed the garage door to the food and locked all the doors.

"Mom, what's going to happen?" Liam was scared. He was holding back tears.

"Hush." I quieted Liam as walkers filled up the streets. I picked Liam up and walked into the room with the guns. I grabbed as much as we could carry and we walked upstairs. I looked for somewhere to hide Liam. "Okay, baby. I need you to crawl up there. I need you to hide. Don't make a noise. Do not speak. You do not speak. Not at all. Nod if you understand that." I smiled at Liam and he nodded. I had pointed to a wall cabinet in the top of the hallway. I helped Liam up there and he got in. "Now, this is a gun. You point it right here, if a walker opens this somehow you pull the trigger. Not before. Keep your finger right her until that happens, okay?" Liam nodded again. I smiled and kissed my hand before pressing it to his cheek. "I'll be right back."

"Mom-" Liam started to talk but, I shook my head. I held my finger to my lips and rushed down the stairs to grab food and water. I grabbed enough supplies for a few days. Maybe more. I rushed back upstairs and gave it to Liam. It was all easy to open, in case it took a while. I handed it to him and explained to him to stay put until I came and opened the door. He nodded and began to tear up.

"Liam, you are strong. Now- no eating until your stomach hurts so bad that you have to puke. Okay?" I held a weak smiled and he nodded. "I love you."

"I love you too mom." Liam whined. I shut the cabinet and ran back down to the armory. I grabbed ammo, guns, knives, anything. I grabbed a bag and piled it high. Then I went to the pantry and did the same. I brought it with me to the closer under the stairs. I hid under there and waited. I heard no banging on the doors, just the growling of them outside. I was afraid. Leaving Liam upstairs, alone. It really scared me.
I don't know how long I was in there before I heard gunfire outside. I shot out of the closet seeing that it was dark I went to check on Liam.

"Liam? Baby?" I opened the closet and saw him sleeping. I chuckled at him holding the gun tightly to his chest. I shut the door again and peeked our the window. I saw most the walkers were following something. I ran out and fired a rifle until the ammo emptied. I saw a group of people, I cleared myself a path to them. I had pistols and knives.

"Y/n, nice of you to show up." Rosita chuckled as I handed her a pistol. I chuckled and nodded. I fired the rest of the rifle ammo and tossed the gun into the ground. I pulled out two pistols and fired with both hands.

"Keep pushing!" Rick called as he stabbed a walker. He kept going. We all did. "Move it! Back up!" Within seconds of his words a huge fire lit in front of us. The pond was on fire. Walkers were going towards it. We kept pushing.
