Alita's Point of View

Once I got inside the cell block from watch with Foxy at my side, I am finally go to bed. When I got in Daryl and I's cell, Foxy immediately went into the dog bed that Carl and Beth found for Foxy.

So I thanked the two earlier before I went on watch, which was before everyone else went to sleep.

I sighed lifting up the over sized shirt Merle gave her to see that the bruise has almost completely healed. Then I heard something from behind me...

No One's Point of View

"What time is it?" Daryl mumbled from the bed, his unusual deep southern drawl now raspy, laced with sleep and Alita smiled watching him as he yawned, rubbing his tired eyes.

"Slow down, cowboy. There's still a few hours till daylight." Alita chuckled and slightly smiled.

She placed her crossbow against the wall next to Daryl's and places her pistols near their other weapons before she began getting changed into the new pajamas that Carol had given her.

So, she didn't have to wear the oversized shirt Merle gave her back in Woodbury.

"What are ya doin'?" Daryl muttered, clearly still half asleep as Alita finished putting on her new clothes.

Now feeling more comfortable and relaxed in better fitting clothes, she was being honest to herself she shouldn't put her leather jacket on, but to her it was too just fine in the prison.

"You can't even keep your eyes open, go back to sleep." Alita whispered, not wanting to wake anyone else in the other cells before she climbed into bed beside Daryl as he wrapped his arm around her shoulders pulling her into his chest.

"Were ya on watch all night?" Daryl asked softly and Alita nodded against his chest causing him to sigh.

"Wasn't Rick meant to take over?" Daryl asked.

"Yeah, but he's going on that run with Michonne and Carl today to find guns and ammo. I didn't want to wake him, he needs the rest." Alita simply replied as she fiddled with the loose thread on Daryl's sleeveless shirt.

"You need rest too." Daryl said to her.

"I can sleep all day if I want, we don't have anything better to do, but wait till that meeting with the Governor in two days time. Also, I don't have to hunt for a while." Alita muttered closing her eyes as Daryl began running his fingers through her hair.

"About that meeting... I want ya to stay here while we go." Daryl suddenly said to her.

"You need me to keep an eye on Merle while you're gone. You don't want him to do anything stupid, I can tell Rick is one step closer to kicking him out." Alita says to him, as she could feel him nod a bit.

"Okay. But if you guys aren't back after a few hours I'm going after you. Especially in wolf form." Alita added, and she felt him nod again as she relaxed back in his arms before the two fell asleep.
