I let go of Daryl and he walks up to Rick. "Rick you with me?" he asks waving his hand in front of the delusional man. I walk over to Maggie and Carl, Maggie hands me the baby, and I take in the sweet child.

"Let me see that baby." I hear daddy call out I start to walk and I look at it "What 'r we gonna feed it?" Daryl asks "Her." I breath out "What?" people ask "It's a girl." I tell everybody.

"We got anything a baby can eat?" Daryl continues his questions. I walk over to daddy and he inspects her "Good news is she looks healthy. But she needs formula, and soon or she won't survive."

"Nope. No way. Not her." I look up from the baby at Daryl's words "We ain't loosing nobody else. I'm going for a run." Daryl announces "I'll back you up." Maggie says "I'll go to." Glenn sighs "Yeah count me in." I tell him.

"Nope not you." he points at me "Think where we're going." He tells Maggie. I give him a dirty look and he motions me over. I hand the baby to Carl and walk to him.

"Kid just lost his mom. His dad ain't doing so hot." he says and I sigh "I'll look out for him." I tell him and he nods and gives me a soft kiss. "You two get the fence. Too many pile up, we got ourselves a problem. Glenn, Maggie, vamonos." Daryl shouts out orders

"Rick!" Maggie yells and I turn around to see him storming inside "Get the gate." Daryl continues. "Come on, we're gonna loose the light!" Dare shouts and they run off. I hear Daryl's bike start and I see him and Maggie take off.

I sat inside the prison next to Carl who was holding the baby. We didn't talk just sat there calming the baby. "Beth." I motioned her over and had her take my place. I stood up and started to walk out.

"Where are you going?" Carl asks "Just outside to help Glenn." I told him and flashed him a smile. I walked outside in the insane heat. I walked to the yard next to Glenn.

I picked up a shovel and just started to help him dig. We had two holes done when we heard a gun click. I looked up quickly to see Jeff with his arm around Glenns neck pointing the gun to his temple.

"Stop, don't hurt him." I told him dropping the shovel "What do you want?" I quickly asked "You." he simply said "No." Glenn growled "Or that new little one in their, or the boy might be nice, I always wanted a son who wouldn't kill himself." he shrugs "Don't talk about Matt like that." I growled "So you or the others?" he asks giving me a smirk "Me, you can have me." I quickly said.

"Riley no." Glenn said "It's okay Glenn." I said giving him a smile. "Let him go." I said venom in my voice and my smile dropping. He let him go and grabbed my arm. "Please take care of my sisters, especially Maggs, that's your job now." I tell Glenn.

"oh and make sure Carl knows he's going to be okay, he'll make it through this. Help him see that, help him protect that baby. Help Rick to, he needs it."

"Tell daddy I love him and it's okay, ill be okay." I stopped and took a breath and a tear escaped my eye. "Tell Daryl that I love him, tell him it's okay to move on." I told him.

"Riley." he whimpered "Don't come looking for her." Jeff growled "I love you Glenn." I told him as Jeff pulled me away.

We got to the gate and I ordered the prisoners to open it. As soon as it was open we were running. He never let go of my arm, we just kept running.

The sun set and It was getting dark. We had been walking through the forest all day and we only stumbled across a couple walkers. When it got dark and the moon came through the trees being our only source of light. The night air cold on my skin, I was only wearing a tank-top.

We finally made it to a cabin, he opened the door and pushed me inside. He brought me to a railing and tied my arms to it above my head with rope. He tied it tight so whenever my hands moved I could feel it burning my skin.

He grabbed my face and I closed my eyes. I could feel that his face was close to mine, I could feel his breath on my face. "Look at your father!" he demands slapping me I open my eyes "My father isn't here." I spit at him and he hits me in the face.

I cant taste blood and I know he split my lip open. "It's been a long time since I could do that honey, oh and it feels good." he says spinning his wrist. "You are the reason I got put in jail you stupid bitch." he says as he hits me again this time more at my four head.

"You honestly thought you could get rid of me that easy?" he asks laughing then punches me again but in the stomach. "I wonder if you still have the scars." he says remembering what he used to do to me.

He rips my tank-top off so i'm only in my bra, he turns me around to see my back and I feel his hands on me. He touches the burn scars on the back of my shoulder and down he flips me over and looks at my stomach.

"Think we could use some more?" he asks and I shiver. He takes out a pack of cigarettes and pops one in his mouth. He takes out a lighter and lights it, he then breathes it in and out. He examines the thing in his hands, he shrugs and then places it on my stomach just above my pants.

"Ah shit!" I scream from the burning and he laughs "Oh how I have missed this." he says as he moves the cigarette around different place. The cigarette is finally just a small bud and it has stopped burning, he takes one look at it and throws it on the floor.

"How was life with your new daddy?" he asks and I just stare at him he then pulls his fist back and it hits me in the face. "Answer me when I speak!" he yells and I just stare at him he then puts his hands on my shoulders and brings his knee up which connects with my stomach.

I grunt and my legs just want to give out. He then punches me over and over again using my body and face as a punching bag.

Memories come back to me and I just try to think of Daryl's face. He stops hitting me after about an hour and unties my hands. My legs buckle and I fall to the ground, he takes one of my hands and ties it to the banister.

"Your welcome for letting you sit." he spits and he walks away out of my line of sight.

I sit on the ground and I feel tears fall out of my eyes, the memories filling my head of when I was little. Nothing will drown out my cries from inside my head.
