~Haley's P.O.V~
I waited for one walker to bite me. To feel my skin being town apart, my flesh being taken out of me, dying in agony. I closed my eyes and waited for it to happen when I heard the release of a crossbow. I kept my head down and heard the snarling becoming less and less. Pretty soon I heard silence. I looked up to see Daryl helping me up. He walked over to his bike and sat down. Geez not even an are you okay Haley?
"Come on we ain't got all day" He scolded
I sighed as I began walking over to him
"Aw shit"
"What?" I asked as he turned off the bike
"We need more gas, I saw some in the store wait here" He said as he got off the bike
"There might be more walkers in there" I commented
"I don't care" He said as he continued walking
I sighed as I leaned up against the bike. Why did they have to send me with him? He was an arrogant asshole. He was just a rude redneck. I waited there for awhile expecting him back but he never did. I was beginning to get worried, then I heard low snarling behind me. I grabbed my bow that I put behind me and grabbed one of my arrows. I pulled it back on the bow and was about to fire but another arrow flew onto it's head as it fell to the ground. I put the arrow back as I turned around
"I had that you know"
"That don't matter" He said as he picked up the fuel tank from the floor and put it into the tank of the bike. He threw the tank to the floor grabbed his arrow from the walker and started the bike "Let's go"
I put the bow back on my back and I got on and put my hands on his waist before we took off. We made it back to the prison. Once we got off I went inside the prison and emptied my bag.
"You find everything ok?" Beth asked me
I nodded and gave her some supplies I found. She thanked me as I walked out. I walked into my cell and sat down on the bed. I sighed as I laid down. I remembered what Rick has said about proving myself. Doubt I did any proving with that supply run. I forced myself up and grabbed my bow and arrow I had set down earlier. I walked outside and walked up to the fence where the walkers were growling and snarling wanting to go through. I walked up to the simply stating at one. He just growling as his teeth showed and his hands on the fence. I grabbed my knife and stabbed him right in the eye. The other walkers just continued to growl louder. Just then I felt someone stand next to me doing the same
"Where are you from?" The deep voice asked
"Texas" I turned to see Rick
"Wow your a long way from home"
"Before all of this happened I was in Atlanta visiting a friend"
He nodded "Look I know none of us know you but I appreciate you going on that run with Daryl"
"I really appreciate you taking me in Rick, and I'm gonna do whatever it takes to earn my stay here"
"Well your about halfway there with that run you went on"
I chuckled slightly "Thanks Rick"
He nodded and began walking away "Hey" I called out as he turned around
"What's up with Daryl? He's got a crazy attitude, pretty bad one I should say"
He looked down then back up at me "Yea he's like that but don't worry, you will get used to him"
I nodded slightly as he walked away. I continued killing the walkers for awhile until I went back inside. I walked into the cell block as they were putting soup into a bowl. Carol handed one to me and I thanked her. I began eating. Ever since the world went to hell it was hard to eat. There wasn't a nice decent burger around. I looked around to see Glenn and Maggie eating. As well as Carl, Beth was feeding the baby. Once I finished I went back outside and kept watch the rest of the night. The next day I still kept watch
"Hey!" A familiar voice called out
"You should be resting" It was Hershel
"I'm good Hershel"
"You got shot remember" He said walking towards me with his crutches
"Well I've been checking it everyday and I'm healing pretty quickly"
"You should still be resting" He commented
"Thanks for the concern Hershel, but really I'm ok" I smiled
"Alright, make sure you get come in to get something to eat and take atleast a nap"
I looked down then back at him "Thanks"
He nodded and walked away. I looked around and saw Daryl keeping watch on the other side of the prison. I decided to go over and talk, thanking hum again for saving my life on the run. I approached him but he didn't look at me
"That supply run. It wasn't me. I'm not like that. I'm stronger then that, I just tripped"
He didn't respond
"Ok look I'm just tryin to be nice here, you don't have to be an ass"
He scoffed and still didn't look at me
"Ok well when you decide to calm down look for me so I can thank you"
I rolled my eyes and walked away
~Daryl's P.O.V~
After the supply run we got back and I just laid down on my bed in the cell. I was giving my usual attitude to Haley. She was alright but on that supply run she was careless. She didn't seem like a crazy bitch, not that any of us weren't. She got fed up with me easily though. I got up and walked outside where the cars were at to see her looking around at my bike
"Hey!" I approached her "Stay the hell stay from my bike!" She didn't back away "Hey bitch!" I screeched
