Chapter 52

Daryl

I woke up the next day and I need a plan, I need Samantha to learn that drinking doesn't solve things as much as it will hurt us but it's all I can think about. But first I need to ask a favor I'm sure he'll help me. I went downstairs and Samantha was snoring on the couch I left her there going back upstairs to pack a bag for her and taking it with me I then headed out I think this needs to be done so she can learn how disappointed I am with her. I walked up the stairs to the front door and knocked on the door.

"Daryl, I didn't know we got along that well you wanted to move in."

"I need your help. I know Samantha likes you, well I came home last night and she's been on a bender since Winter disappeared. I need her to learn what she's willing to lose if she continues to drink."

"Why aren't you asking Carol or Michonne?"

"Because I don't think they'll help, you might. I don't want to lose my wife but I can't have her drinking like she has been."

"Sure I'll help your family." I hand him the bag and go to leave. "Daryl, so do you think this means we might be friends?"

"I don't know but I trust you isn't that a start."

"Yes that's true. Bring your wife over and I look after her."

I headed towards the clinic to collect Winter, found her with Carol and the kids.

"Daddy!"

"Hey, Shawna." Carol is looking at me.

"So, where is Sam?"

"Just drop it okay. I'm looking after it. It's my problem I will deal with it my way."

"Okay if you need my help, you know where I am."

"Can you help me bring the kids home?"

"Like you have to ask. I'm not Sam."

We left the clinic I'm glad that I have help as I don't think I could carry both babies at one time. We reached home I took Willow from Carol and let us in. I saw that Sam was awake looking bad, I ignored her and took the kids upstairs and told Quinn that no one was to come downstairs until I said so, as he was to look after his sisters, I headed downstairs to do something I really didn't want to do but know I must.

"Morning, Samantha."

"Yeah what's so good about it. I need water and coffee."

"I've been thinking and since you're dressed we're going for a walk."

"No thanks I'm going to rest until I feel better."

"That wasn't up for discussion come on, Quinn will be looking after the kids we won't be long." I helped her up and we headed outside, and I head towards Negan's place.

"What are we doing here?"

"You'll see." I knocked on the door, Negan opened it.

"Hey Daryl. You weren't kidding were you."

"Nope I wasn't. Sam, I've tried being nice to you and I told you I won't have my kids near someone drunk. So you have a choice it's us or the bottle you choose."

"I don't need it I was miserable without you."

"I don't care Sam, I trusted you to look after our children and you couldn't do that you were unbelievably selfish and got drunk and I'm pretty sure stayed drunk for god only knows how long. So you've left me no choice but to remove you from our life. The kids deserve a suitable mother and I'm sorry but you're not a suitable mother to my kids."
