Will he still be there when he finds out her secrets? And how will daryl take it having his walls broken down so easily by this girl? Will he fight his feelings or will he surrender and do anything to protect her? A/N Story will follow the walking dead events, but some may be out of order and some people may live longer

Starting immediately after it's predecessor, Daring Dixon, Floating is the continued story of Rosaline and Daryl; in a different point of view. After taking a terrible tumble down the stairs, Rosaline is left battered and bruised, but ultimately, alive. She is rescued by a friend she thought to be dead, which leads her to meet a very powerful man whom she knows will provide her protection, food, and could also lead to her finding Daryl again. Daryl blames himself for 'killing' Rosaline, and wants to forget everything that ever happened. But with Rick and the others to answer to, he must relive his regrets and explain just what happened. He becomes withdrawn, keeping his distance from others, even his own brother, Merle. It isn't until the unexpected happens that Daryl finally becomes himself again; even if not for long.

Divorced and starting over Jenna moves to Georgia to rebuild her career and her life. A twist of fate causes her to meet Norman Reedus and her life will never be the same again. Is she ready for everything he has to offer? I'm not great at descriptions so please bear with me. Please give the story a read and see what you think. :)

Carly Jenson was the person who got into trouble, suspended, been bullied, and had a really hard life that she rarely talked about. She always kept it hidden. When the Zombie Apocalypse began, she was a run away in the city of Atlanta. She was found by a group that had brought her in... She instantly fell head over heels for the redneck of the name Daryl Dixon! Daryl had also gotten feelings for Carly, but wouldn't show them. Eventually through the time of the ended world, Carly and Daryl are brought to face challenges with one another, and the dead having to act together and think alike to survive. They were brought together with their pasts, and became best friends... It was killing each other inside to think that they were nothing more. That is until one day that brought everything together.. That brought them to see each other better as one rather than two. Will they finally admit their feelings? Or will they just fall apart and remain friends?

A world gone to shit, a group just trying to survive and two people who were polar opposites in a world before this. Can you truly find happiness in the zombie apocalypse? Especially when it's in the hands of a shy, guarded redneck like Daryl Dixon?

"I can hardly remember a time in my life where the Dixon's weren't a part of it" Savannah and Daryl have been in each other's lives for as long as they can remember....thick as thieves through the good and the bad. They are two damaged souls found by unfortunate coincidences and terrible parenting. Each of them feels they are worth nothing....they have nothing but each other, and it stays that way through tormented years of childhood, traumatic teenage years and way into adulthood. It always felt like nothing could tear these friends apart. But when a virus breaks out, the dead don't stay dead and your every move could cause you your life, could this be the one thing that breaks these two apart? It always felt that Daryl Dixon and Savannah Montgomery were meant to be together, even from a young age, but will they realize this before it's too late?

"Are you serious? Are you really going to push me away? Push us away?" I yelled at him. Daryl kept his back turned. "I have to!" He yelled. His face only inches from mine. "Why? You don't have to keep running from us!" I could feel my face redden and the tears fall. "Because I don' know how to do this!" He yelled pointing to him then me and back to him. "I'll help you!" I cried. "No! Ya' can't, cause ya' don' feel the same!" He yelled. "But I do," I said softly. He looked at me and I could see his tear filled blue eyes meet mine.

Daryl has always been a loner. He found himself sitting alone on weekends, while his friends were out partying or with their girlfriends. Daryl was a damaged man, but he had a small house, a decent vehicle, and an okay job. What he didn't have was someone to share it with. Until Madison moved to town. He tries for days, weeks, and even months to be with her, but she won't give in even though she so desperately wants to. Daryl soon realizes that Madison has a few secrets. And those secrets are tearing her, and him apart. Madison doesn't want to bring Daryl into her mess of problems, but when she sees that Daryl's feelings for her are the same as her feelings for him, a few walls might break down.

Shit has hit the fan. My dad left me and my little brother to fend for ourselves. I couldn't care less. I hoped he was dead. He made our lives a living hell. Me and my baby brother had somewhere where we hoped we could be safe. the CDC.

"I don't wanna be a killer... I don't wanna be a monster, Daryl."
