Chapter 15

Chapter 15:His POV

I slightly open my eyes, and I immediately shut them again.

"Damn it's bright." I mumble.

"Oh thank god you're up, you've been out for a whole day." A female voice says to me. I assumes it's Beth.

"Well I'm sorry I was lookin' fer yer ass." I mumble and complain.

"Daryl? What are you talkin' about?" She says.

I turn and face her. It wasn't the her I thought it was.

Carol is sittin' next to me confused as all hell.

"Sorry, you sounded like Beth fer a second." I say to her a little embarrassed.

"Oh. Maybe ye hit yer head harder than we thought." She laughs.

"That reminds me, where's Rick?" I grumble.

She points next to me and, I sit up and swing my legs over the side of the cot they has put me on. I immediately stop in my tracks.

Rick is sittin' next to Beth, who is unconscious on a cot next to mine?

"What happened?" I half ask, half panic.

"She was gettin' attacked by walkers and fell and hit her head. She isn't bitten from what I can see. Just knocked out." I release a breath I didn't know I was holding.

"Oh? I thought maybe you pushed 'er and she hit 'er head on a desk?" I say raising an eyebrow. Rick smirks and nods.

"No, not this time. I got to her before the walker could." He says and looks down.

Carol gets up from behind me, and walks around the cot.

"I'll get ya somethin' to eat." She says to me and walks off.

"So Daryl, I got somethin' I wanna talk to ya about." Rick says lookin' back at me.

"What?" I huff, not rudely though. At least I didn't try for it to be.

"Last night, when I brought Beth back 'ere and laid her next to you. Somethin' weird happened." He says smirkin' and I tilt my head to the side in curiosity.

"Both of you turned to face each other at almost the exact same time." He says smiling and I tense a little bit.

"So what?" I ask, not amused.

"Daryl... what's goin' on between you two?" He asks intrigued.

"Nothin' man. We're just really good friends." I say smilin' a bit while looking down.

"Yea, that's how I was with Lori when we first met." He says starin' at me.

"Hey, you have no right to question me. Besides, don't you have Michonne to worry about." I say smirkin' at him and he freezes.

"What are ya talkin' about, brother?" He asks in a sorta panic.

"I see the way you two look at each other as well. There's somethin' there." I say with an even bigger smirk.

"Hey, that's my business." He says smilin'.

I'm about to open my mouth the retaliate, but someone stops me.

"Ri..Rick?" Beth mumbles.

"Yea Beth?" He asks worried.

"My head hurts still." She says and I can see small smile appear on her lips.

"I know, darlin' . It's gonna hurt for a little while." He says and she nods.

"Hey Rick?" She mumbles again.

"Yea?"

"Is Daryl feelin' better?" She asks a knitting her eyebrows closer together in question.

"Yea.." Rick says smilin' up at me. "He's doin' much better." He says and I can't help but smile.

Carol comes back and leaves me some crackers and water then walks back over to Carl and the lil' asskicker.

For the rest of the day Rick and I talk, as we wait for Beth to fully wake up.
