Worth It

THE WALKING DEAD

Everything dies in the apocalypse. Eventually anyway. So is falling in love even worth it?

I got luckier than most. I found my old family and even created a new one. Every person with different backgrounds could trust each other and become family and yet... and yet no matter how much time I spend with them, I don't feel as though I belong.

They'll all die anyway. Eventually. We will all... be... gone....

"Chloe." I jolt, breaking out of my trance. "Yea, sorry, what's up?" I ask Daryl, my mouth morphing into a smile. "Are you okay?" He asks me, searching my eyes. I nod my head. "Yeah, sorry. I'm fine" I shrug sheepishly.

He nods slowly. "Well, you can always talk to me. I'll always be here. Because you're worth it. Always." He pulls me into his arms and I hug him gingerly. Worth it... right. I swallow hard, trying not to feel guilty about the fact that I don't want to be here, that I can't be here anymore.
