Dwight was sitting on the stretcher in middle of the cell and lifted his head when Rosita opened the door.

Not a moment later Daryl suddenly charged forward and you didn't even try to stop him, not after the shit Dwight put him through at the Sanctuary, but Rick did.

The former Deputy quickly stepped in front of Daryl, putting himself between the archer and Dwight as Daryl tried to push past him, but Rick wouldn't let him.

"Whoa Whoa." Rick said, placing his hand on Daryl's chest as he tried to calm your boyfriend down and usually you would help out in this situation, but you kinda wanted Daryl to just kill the man or at least punch him.

"He wants to help us." Rosita suddenly said, snapping your attention way from Rick and Daryl as you looked over at the woman beside them.

You took a step forward until you were beside Daryl, resting your hand on his shoulder to try and calm him down. Rick glanced over at you, his own hand still on Daryl's chest before he looked over his shoulder at Dwight.

"That true? You want to help?" Rick questioned, not taking his hand from Daryl just yet, but he kept his eyes on Dwight.

"I do." Dwight answered.

"Okay." Rick responded, lowering his hand from Daryl and turning to face Dwight properly before he pulled his gun out and aimed it at Dwight's head. "Get on your knees."

You stood back and watched as Dwight did what he as asked and dropped to the ground on his knees, staring up at Rick before he glanced over at Daryl who was standing beside you.

"Look at me." Rick ordered sternly as Dwight focused back on him. "Why?"

"Because I want it stopped. I want Negan dead."

"So why don't you kill him?" Rick asked, his gun still aimed at the mans head.

"Can't just be me. They're all Negan."

"That girl you murdered. She had a name. Her name was Denise and she was a doctor. And she helped people." Tara suddenly said, speaking up for the first time as he stepped in front of Dwight and Rick lowered his gun.

"I wasn't aiming for her." Dwight responded and a split-second later Daryl had Dwight pinned up against the wall with his knife inches away from the mans eye.

Rick took a step forward about to intervene, but you grabbed his arm and shook your head. Daryl needed to do this, if he wanted to kill Dwight, it was his choice after everything the man had done to him.

"Do it. Do it." Tara said from somewhere to the left, but you kept your eyes on Daryl.

"You wanna end it this way. You go ahead. I'm sorry. I am. For what I did to you and your girl. For Denise. I know you want to." Dwight said, his voice calm despite the blade of Daryl's knife inches from his eyeball.

"He could just be here to see if you were here." Rick stated as you let go of his arm and took a step forward.

"He owned me. But not anymore. What I did, I was doing it for someone else. She just got away and your brothers sent me here." Dwight informed, his eyes glancing over in your direction, but he didn't dare try and move his head.

Your brothers? What? They were with Negan though, right?

"Sam and Dean. Dean wanted to apologise for how he acted when you and Daryl escaped the Sanctuary, he didn't know who was watching and couldn't risk his cover being blown. They told me everything and whatever you said or did to Negan when you were at Sanctuary, it's rattled him. Negan keeps talking about these dreams he's having, these memories he thinks they are, but he doesn't know what they mean." Dwight explained and you had to take a moment to process all that.
