We started to have diner but I hardly touched any of my food. As everyone talked I just thought about how Daryl was doing.

"What about Daryl? I'll take some food up to him" I said as everyone agreed, making a small plate of food for him as I carried it up the stairs.

I pushed the door open as he tried to cover his scars on his back "its only me" I told him as he huffed

"How are you feeling?" I asked him as I placed the plate beside him

"As good as I look" he told me, not even bothering to face me

"I Brought you some dinner, you must be starving"  I said as he still didn't look at me nor say anything

I sat on the end of the bed and he looked at me "wha'?" He asked me

"Why do you hate me? Why did you randomly just stop talking to me? We had sex two days ago and you're acting like I Don't exist. Can you please tell me why? I miss you Daryl, I miss your stupid comments you make or how you tease me about being scared of the dark. I was going to ask if we could go on a run on your bike or have a shot on of your crossbow, but I just feel like you're pushing me away like everyone else did" I told him, looking down at my hands. I felt him sit up and wrap his arms around me, pulling my hair to one side

He chuckled " ya still have that hickey" he said as I covered my neck with my hand

"Don't dodge the question"

"I don' know, I'm scared-"

"Of what Daryl?" I cut him off

"My feelings" I sat in shock as his arms were still around me and his head rested on my shoulder "I think I love ya"

"Does anyone want to take this plate upto Daryl?" Carol said as that brought me out my daydream, the thought of Daryl saying he loved me made tight knots in my stomach turn. "Anyone? Aura, do you?" She asked, stretching her arms out for me to take the plate.

"Nah, you can do it if you want. I need the bathroom" I quickly said while rushing outside. I have to think about my feelings for him, why did I daydream about him saying that?

"Hey Dale, I need to talk to you" I asked him as I walked into the RV, he was the only one in there.

"Hey Aura, of course. What do you need" he said as he sat down on the seat

"Do you have any idea why Daryl has been acting so weird for the past couple of days?" I asked him as he shrugged.

"Tell me what's happened between you two then" he said as I sat across from him

"-uh- remember when me and Daryl went to go out and find Sophia on the highway?" I asked as he nodded "well -uh- one thing led to another and we -um- ya know" I told him as I pulled my hair back to show him my hickey

"You didn't." He said as I nodded slowly "well -uh- pshhhh, I don't know why he's acting so weird. I'm sorry but I can't help you there" he said as he stood up

"Dale wait! I think I'm in love with him"
