"When there's no more room in hell, the dead will walk the earth." Ever since the world turned, all Lily did was hide.

"Why are you doing this?" I grab his arm before he storms out the house, but he just shakes me off and keeps walking. "Daryl!" I scream before he can step off the tiny porch. He turns abruptly and storms back over to me. "What?! What do ye want from me?!" He screams, the veins in his neck pop out as he breathes hard. "I know you don't like me, but you can't always run away!" I point a finger at his chest and jab him as I say every word. "Like ye? Ye just don't understand!"

I do not own any of The Walking Dead characters or the story line. Poorly written in the beginning, but it gets better as you go.

This story takes place right after the walkers invade Beth and Daryl's home at the cemetery. Beth is taken and Daryl will stop at nothing to get her back. Some lines are changed and some of it is written the way I wished it could've went. I know this story is a little late for a Bethyl story, but I decided to write one anyway in honor of Beth Greene. All rights go to AMC. These are none of my characters.
