The Reunion •Daryl Dixon• •Book Two•

Nineteen

"Liv, dont be like that" he sighed helping her from the bed "no Daryl, you told me you didnt want it and Kate couldnt find out but now all a sudden you want in again?" She responded bluntly, he didnt respond, he put his head in his hands and exhaled with frustration "you dont even know what you want" she added shaking her head and opening the door for them both. "Just leave it, you cant get stressed anymore" he tried to warn her "if you stopped messing with my head i'd be okay" she snapped walking back to his truck.

Before driving off he tried to hug her and as much as she wanted to she couldnt give in, although it pained her to not.

"Are you keeping it?" He asked as they drove "after seeing it, i cant get rid of it, I didnt think I cared as much as I did when I saw it" she replied. Another silence fell on the pair as they drove back to his garage "i was taking some stuff to my new place when my tyre popped, can i get the bags and take them there? I'll make me own way back" she asked hoping he'd grant her this one favour considering that day she had had.

He nodded and pulled into his place and took her bags from her car and put them into his truck. She directed him with one word answers on where to head, he parked up and looked up at the tall apartment block she was moving into.

They headed for the elevator and up to the second floor and walked down the small hall to her apartment. "You can leave them there" she pointed to the floor as she walked towards the large balcony she had "do you wanna talk?" He asked not sounding very confident in himself "not really" she replied not looking his way. "Why not?" He quizzed her again, she rolled her eyes obviously as she turned to him "what is there to talk about?" She shrugged, Daryl shrugged too "well you are having this baby arnt you?" He asked to which she nodded "dont worry Kate will never know your dirty little secret" she reassured him but it clearly wasnt what he meant "i can be a good secret, I was one for many years" smugly reminding him of her deal with Negan knowing it would make him jealous, Daryl sat down looking fed up on the plastic covered couch "I dont love her Olivia, not like I do you" he spoke looking at her "I barely got over you when you came back into my life" he sighed "I wish I was marrying you and not her" he added.

"Well look where marriage got us" Olivia shrugged shooting him down. Sensing the tension building Daryl got up to leave he put his arms up to embrace her and he looked surprised when she wrapped her arms around him.

They stood like that in eachothers arms for a while, his scent was making her heart flutter and she couldnt stop herself from leaning up to kiss him, he wanted to too as he quickly let go to hold her face as he returned the kiss, she felt weak as he ran his hands through her hair but she had to stop.

"No Daryl! You cant just kiss me and think it will all be okay!" She yelled tearfully as she pushed him from her, he looked like he didnt know what to do next, he was tearing up too. "I wish i never came back to this town! Its just screwed up my head!" She cried "this is hard for me too" he admitted, she looked at him and even though he had two women who both loved him, he was stuck on wanting to do the right thing and wanting what he has always wanted.

"I have to end this pregnancy" she sighed "I cant look at it and see you everyday and not be with you. It will kill me" she cried wiping her hands over her face. "You can't Liv" he spoke sounding choked up. "Are you going to end it with her and be with me?" She asked, Daryl didnt respond, she could tell in his eyes he wanted to but she knew Daryl, he wasnt that cruel "and I cant make you choose" she whispered "its for the best i guess" they both said at the same time although they wished it wasnt so.

"I'll get an appointment next week" she nodded  "you dont have to come, I dont think you should, i think after this, thats it with us" she spoke aloud to herself "when is the big day anyway?" She fake smiled grabbing a tissue from the bathroom to wipe her eyes. Daryl didnt want to answer, and he closed his eyes as he did "next Friday" "no one told me" she laughed digging out Lori and Rick "well did you really wanna know?" He asked sarcastically meeting with her sad eyes.

Trying to make a joke of the matter she teased "well you and Kate can make one of your own that night, maybe we should have, it might not of ended!" She laughed, it was all put on, inside her heart was in shatters and she was trying to protect it hurting anymore.

Daryl grimaced at the thought "Daryl she cant be that bad" Olivia spoke sitting ontop of her kitchen counter "its not that Liv" he began as her played with his shirt buttons "she aint you" he added.

Olivia hopped down from the work top and took his hand in hers and he laced his fingers entwining them both together. She took a deep breath and pushed his hair from his face, her touch was enough for him to lean down to her lips but this time she welcomed them, she pulled his body closer to hers and he did the same as he ran his hands down her back, she quickly hooked her hands under his shirt and popped the buttons revealing his toned torso, the shirt slipped from his arms and he hoisted Olivia up and placed her onto the counter sliding her jeans from her, unsure on whether she wanted to go further he looked at her and she had hungry eyes "one last time" she whispered before lustfully igniting the kiss again, he slipped her vest top from her and began kissing down her chest and stomach "better make this one count then" he spoke as he traced the line of kisses back up to her lips before widening her legs further apart and entering her slowly....
