Glenn's pov
"Hey Glenn have you seen Rick or Lori?" Y/n said from behind me, she was holding Carl's hand and he had a massive grin on his face
"Yeah, Rick is about to take Randal away, and Lori is in the house helping Patricia, I think, if not maybe ask Dale?" I said trying to remember the last time I saw her, Y/n's face became confused
"Take Randal away?"She asked confused, scratching the back of my neck, I thought of how to word it
"Yeah, Shane got a big vote on that while Hershel was patching up your arm"
"Ahh okay, I'm going to find Lori now" She said almost quickly
Y/n's pov
"Come on Carl, let's go ask your mum" I said trying to push past the fact of Shane being a grade A dickhead
"Then will you teach me that cool trick?" Carl was really excited at this
"If your mama says its okay" I smiled trying not to get him to excited because Lori being the buzzkill she was, he might not get too. "Hey Lori you mind i-" I began only to get cut off.
"Oh my god, Carl, where was he Y/n?" She asked in an accusing tone, is this bitch accusing me of stealing her son?
"He was in the barn, I wan-" I started only to be cut off again
"You let him in the barn?" She asked offended
"No, he walked in, why are you blaming me?" I said, getting more annoyed, fucking bitch ridding in on her high horse making Glenn grab all that shit for her? Glenn told me how Maggie almost died because she got herself knocked up!
Pulling me aside she stared daggers before continuing "I don't like that you arrived then that Randal kid did, cause now my husbands off dealing with him, and you could of gotten Glenn killed at that damn shoot out" Her hand was digging into my upper arm
"That wasn't my fault" I almost yelled, upset she was blaming me for all of this "Plus if you don't remember priss, I was the one who got shot" I hissed back
"Yeah, they were out looking for you, and it a god send Rick, Glenn or Hershel didn't get hurt" She seethed back squaring up to me, she also towered me, fucking lanky bitch.
I took a deep breath rehearsing the same line in my head 'you can't hit a pregnant woman', letting a shaky breath out, I smiled
"Well at least I didn't fuck my husbands best friend" I smirked at her before walking off, leaving her stood there, walking down the farm I found Daryl sat working on his bike, Dale talking next to him.
"Hey Daryl, Dale" I greeted both of them, Daryl gave a grunt in response and Dale gave a hearty wave
"Hey Y/n, Oh I'll tell you what, I've got something for you" Dale had a massive smile on his face, I had one to seeing as someone liked me even if Lori didn't, and Dale seemed to be a valued member of the group.
Me and Dale made our way into the RV, Lori giving me a dirty look on the way in, Dale closed the door of the RV before going into the bedroom at the back, sitting down at the table, I grabbed one of the many books that sat on the chair
'To kill a mockingbird', I read the blurb, huh they made us read this in high school, it was pretty good.
"Now that missy, is a very good book" Dale smiled at me as he re entered the main area, a long bag in his hand "Okay, so I've heard you're a good shot" He kept smiling at me, placing his bucket hat on the table.
"Top of my class" I spoke with confidence remembering the days of my training at the police academy, I dropped out when I met my husband and became a gun instructor before a stay at home wife once we got married, worse choice in my life "May be a little rusty"
"Good, I wanted to give you this" He unwrapped the object from the bag, it was a Rigby highland stalker, my eyes widened in awe "And then this as well" He placed a 44 magnum on the table with some ammo for both guns.
"Woah, Dale, you don't have to" I said amazed eyeing the guns
"Look, I know Shane won't give you anything more than that axe, but even Carl's got a gun, and these are mine, and mine to give out" He said quieter in a hushed tone "I think it's wrong of Shane not to trust you, I know Rick does but Shane has no reason not to" he argued again
"Thanks Dale" I smiled at the old man "Do you mind if I?" I question towards the book
"Go for it, in fact I encourage it, see if you can get Daryl to do some reading, I've been trying to convince him of days" He laughed, I laughed with him, suddenly the door of the RV slammed open revealing Andrea
"So you gave her the guns, you know how long I had my eye on those?" Andrea seethed at me, not wanting to get involved in another family's drama I grabbed the two guns
"I'm guessing no one's on watch so I'm going to" I offered a quick smile to Dale
Walking out the RV, I made sure to close the door again before climbing on top of the RV, Glenn sat up there playing with his baseball cap
"Hey Glenn, you mind if we swap, there is so much drama going on and I'm getting sucked into it, and I don't mind taking watch" I begged
"Yeah, have you seen Maggie" He slyly asked trying not to sound desperate
"Yeah, she was over with the chickens", I laughed lightly
Daryl Dixon
I decided to go find y/n, ask if she wanted to go hunting with me, she's a good shot, I walked up to the RV and saw her ad Dale talking whilst on watch
"Hey Y/n, want to come hunting?" I shouted up, one hand over my eyes so I didn't blind myself
"Yeah, okay" She shouted back before climbing down the ladder, a gun slung over her shoulder
"Mind of we take the bike?" I asked as we walked to the edge of camp where I was staying, her face dropped "What you 'ain't scared?" I sounded dumbfounded
"No" She said obviously lying
"Well, I figured we could take the bike up the road a bit, maybe siphon some gas, plus we were combing through these woods lookin' for Sophia, ain't any animals round here, ones that were, we've scared off" I explained my reasoning for taking the bike
"And take this" I passed her a hunting knife
~
(No Pov)
The girl hopped onto the bike, the rugged man at the front
"Hold on" He yelled revving the bike, it jolted forward, in panic the girl wrapped her arms round the hunters waist, he let out a small laugh as they drove forward
Driving down the road they got onto a highway weaving through cars they stopped in the middle, a car with a small sign on sat on the windshield, the letters were faded
"You've been here before?" She asked looking at the letters of the cars, the word 'Sophia' was slightly visible
"Yeah, help me grab those cans" He said quickly, she looked down, knowing it was a touchy subject, helping the man grab the water and cans from the car.
"You think we should hide these in a car? Just in case stuff goes tits up at the farm?" She suggests grabbing the last can
"Yeah, smart, I like it, we'll put it under a car, people looting wont check under there" He said crouching down
"I got it" She grabbed the bag that held a couple bottles of water and some cans of food, laying flat on her stomach she placed it under the car directly in the middle
"Hey hey, get under" Daryl said in a hushed tone
"What?" Y/n said confused
"Hurry up woman" Daryl's voice was panicked, she slid under the Car, Daryl getting under the one next to her "Walkers, about 30, wait for em to pass" He mouthed not wanting to make noise, Y/n nodded
Walkers shuffled and groaned as they passed the cars, a couple tripping on the bag Daryl dropped but forgot to drag under with him, about 30 or so feet shuffled by in the span of a minute
"Now?" She mouthed towards him, he shook his head and tapped his ears, listening closely she heard at least 10 more coming.
The feet shuffled past slowly, as if the dead creatures knew there was prey hiding, letting out a shaky breath the girl laid still, suddenly another walker tripped over the bag, but this one fell, landing face to face with Y/n
It growled and grabbed for the girl, a slight look of panic on Daryl's face, almost, deja vu? she slid herself from under the car on the other side of the walker, the others that had almost passed turned around as a shit bit of luck
"Fuck" She whispered to herself, the fallen walker stood up and was trudging towards her along with the other 40 or so, Daryl still laid under the car as the closer 10 were passing back, Y/n slowly walking backwards, her back hit a car, running round she opened the door to the car, dragging the body out, she sat in the back seat and slammed the door.
Soon enough all the walkers were banging against the windows as if looking at a caged animal, knife in hand she sat trying to think of something to do.
Sliding himself out from under the car he saw a car surrounded by the dead, banging on the windows growling
'Should I leave her?' That thought crossed his mind for a second before it left, grabbing his two knife he slowly inched closer to the car, un-sure if the girl inside was bit or not 'If she's bit this is a waist of time, and you risk gettin' bit' He thought in his head 'But I can't leave her like an animal in a cage' was his final thought before deciding to help her
"Y/n, you bit?" He yelled as a genuine question and to draw some walkers away, no way they could take all 40, not enough ammo, not enough man power to use knives.
"No" A voice yelled back
"I'll lead some away, bang on the windows to keep a few there, roll down the windows, see if you can get some" Daryl yelled one more time before hitting his fist on some car doors, drawing the drooling freaks away
Inside the car was stuffy and panic filled, Geeks still bashed against the windows, the front window gaining small cracks, more and more forming with each bang of a dead fist, the girl didn't seem to realize as she was busing driving her knife into the decrepit heads on zombies that tried to push through the slightly open back car window.
Smash
The windshield had finally smashed, a walker now crawling through due to the awkward angle on the seats and how the decrepit human was climbing through, when Y/n tried to stab it, her knife slipped at a weird angle and fell, possibly slicing the infectious blood covered knife into her skin, she winced feeling something twinge at her side
"Y/n?" A shout came, it was close yet muffled, a thud came from the outside as Y/n continued to wrestle with the dead creature, another prying its way in "Y/n you dead?" The voice came again along with another thud, one less growl was coming from outside
"Just having a nice little hug with a walker" She said aggravated, another thud, the walker from the window next to her disappeared
"You're huggin' a walker?" He said confused, but peeked his head in the broken windshield, pulling back the biter that was about to sink its grotty teeth into Y/n's foot "Oh, need help?" His voice sounded slightly smug
"I dropped my knife and I don't know if it hit me, but it was covered in walker blood and if it hit me, I'm pretty sure I'm dead" She let out a little burst of terror still fighting the groaning growling creature atop her, terrified at the thought of being infected.
If a little scratch turned you into one of them, what about a cut infected with their blood? If their saliva coming in contact with broken skin, gives you a sick painful death, what about a fully open wound, your blood mixing with theirs, that's the thought that scared her.
"Fuck" Was all Daryl said, pulling the biting creature off her before stabbing it "Check" Was all he said, annoyance lacing his voice
"I don't want to" She said upset, not wanting to look at the truth, if she was infected, what would happen? Would they kick her out? Would they tie her up, dump her in the middle of no where like Randal? Or would they shoot her dead, Maybe they wouldn't even waste the bullet.
"Fucks sake, come here, sit" Anger clear in his voice, she slowly went to the front of the car, sitting on the bonnet of the car "You think it hit your side?" He said skeptically looking at the blood covered shirt, the once clean grey fabric, now coated in the thick red substance.
'What do I do if she's infected, she looks terrified, I have to check, just to be sure' Daryl's thoughts were running rampage in his head, if she was infected, what did he do? The most concerning thought to him wasn't that he was sitting next to a possible time bomb, but that he hoped she wasn't infected, he liked having her around, she wasn't bad company.
Grabbing the hem of her shirt, she took in a shaky breath, raising the right side halfway up, a small gasp left his lips as he came face to face with her side resting on her lower side was ...
You know what, I think I'll leave it there c:
Yes I'm cruel but I don't think anyone is actually reading my story right now so, when people do, you can move on but, just think, what if you found it earlier and you were left with this...
But yah, is Y/n bit? or maybe infected? What's gonna happen c:
