---Two days later---

~Haley's P.O.V~

I was hanging around the prison. I approached a young girl holding a baby

"She's beautiful" I said smiling "Is she yours?"

She shook her head

I knew instantly the mother wasn't around. And I didn't say anything else

"Haley" I heard a voice and turned to see Rick "I need to speak with you" He turned around and walked out of the room as I followed

"I don't know if Glenn spoke to you"

He stopped and looked at me "As a matter of fact he did. And I've been thinking about it, you have no where else to go. We could use an extra hand bur your gonna need to prove yourself"

I nodded "Put to to work, anything you need"

"Well for now just to keep watch outside on the towers"

I nodded and he began walking away "Rick"

He stopped and turned "Who brought me in?"

"That would be Daryl, the one with the crossbow" He walked away

I looked around the prison for him, I wanted to thank him for saving my life. I found him outside keeping watch holding his crossbow. He was dressed in pants with boots and a vest with wings on the back. His hair was straight as some lagged and covered his eyes a bit. The look on his face said he didn't give a crap. I approached him, he glanced at me but kept looking out.

"Hey" I looked at him but he didn't say a word

"Your Daryl right?"

"Who's askin" He finally looked at me with a stern voice

"I am"

He didn't respond

"Look I just wanted to thank you for saving my life, bringing me in" I said never taking my eyes off of him

"You were dyin" He commented

"I know, look I just wanted to thank you"

He simply said nothing as he continued looking out. I wasn't going to continue wasting my time, I just walked away. Wow what an asshole. Not even a thank you. I walked up to a woman wish short hair outside, she was hanging clothes. I decided to help her

"Need any help?" I offered

"That would be great" She smiled

I grabbed some clothes and began hanging them

"I'm Haley"

"Carol"

"So I hear your staying?"

I nodded "And I can't thank you guys enough for letting me stay, Rick said I just need to prove myself and I'm going to do just that"

She chuckled "I'm glad. But you should be resting. You got shot remember?"

A small chuckled came out if me "I'm fine, no time to waste" I commented and continued to hang up clothes

--------------

"Daryl" Rick called out as he approached him inside the prison in cell block C were we stayed

"What's up?" He said licking his fingers after eating

"I'm gonna need you to go out on a supply run, think you can?"

Daryl nodded "You got it, who else is going?"

"Well Maggie is busy helping Hershel with his leg she can't leave his sight. There's no way I'm letting Carl, Glenn needs to finish getting the food from the other rooms, Carol is outside keeping watch and I need to keep watch as well" Rick said

"So that leaves the new girl" Carl said

"Is she in any condition to go out?" Beth asked

"It's been a couple days, she's healed plus there's no one else. Are you sure your gonna be okay with her out there" Rick said

"Looks like I got no choice. I will be fine I can handle her" Daryl said "Let me gear up"

Rick left to find me. I was keeping watch with my bow and arrow. I've had this weapon for a long time. It was the only thing I really ever used, and carried around.

"Haley"

I turned and looked at him

"How are you feeling?" He asked

"Feeling good"

"I need to ask for a favor"

"Shoot"

"Daryl's going on a supply hunt and I need for you to go with him"

"Sounds good" I walked back to the prison with him and grabbed my bag. I walked outside to see Daryl. I rolled my eyes inside. Great this should be fun. He roared up his motorcycle. Are we seriously going in that? I thought. I approached him and sat behind him as I put my hands on his waist. He began to take off slowly as Rick opened the gate then he took off in full speed. We rode for awhile. The wind hit my face. It felt good considering most days were windy and it was hot. He was driving on the road and we pasted a couple walkers just slowly limping along the ground. Once we got to the destination it was a town full of stores. He turned off the motorcycle. I got off and took the bow and an arrow

"Let's just get what we need and get out of here" Daryl said as he walked to the stores

We walked inside the same store and there was just one walker. He saw us and began growling as he made his way to us. I raised up my bow and arrow and shot it right in the face. He flew back and hit the floor. I walked over cautiously and retrieved my arrow. Daryl went his way and I went mine. I grabbed some things and stuffed them in my bag. I walked further into the store and stuffed whatever I could. I stood up and began to walk further until I stepped on the creaking floor and it made a sound. Shit. I thought. Just then one walker came out in front of me. I grabbed my knife I had and stabbed it in the head thinking it was the only one. It fell to the floor but just then one more walker came out, then another and another. There were too many. They came at me snarling and growling

"Hey let's go!" I heard Daryl yell

I grabbed my bag and began to run out of the store. I saw as Daryl got on his bike as he started it. All I could hear was the snarling behind me. I didn't look back I just kept running. I was almost to the bike when I tripped and fell. The bag went flying foward and all I could hear were the growling coming from behind me. I felt on grab my leg and I closed my eyes. This was it for me. I was going to die today

Hey guys! So I've been watching Walking Dead reruns on netflix and I decided to do a Daryl love story of my own!
