TWD ~ Daryl + Reader ~

Pieces

From where Jesus lays under the car he can hear the other saviors griping at Andy for wasting a bullet on a walker. Though, they all start to back off when Andy quickly kills the four other walkers that were starting to bang on the fence. When all the saviors leave Andy makes his way over to Jesus. 

"They're gone." Andy says plainly as Jesus rolls out from underneath the car.

"If they gripe that much about one bullet, how much would they gripe about the whole clip?"

"They would've beaten me up if it would've been the whole clip." Andy smirks at Jesus as he puts his bloody knife into its holder. Andy wipes his bloody fingers on his pants then asks; "What are you doing here anyways?"

Jesus looks all around them both to make sure there are no saviors around. But before he can tell Andy he stops himself. 'If he fought himself over killing me and fought himself over telling the other saviors about Maggie and Sasha. How can I tell him about (Y/N) knowing Daryl and me being here to find out where Negan lives?'

Andy sees the concern in Jesus' wondering eyes. "Jesus." Jesus' eyes continue to wonder, blocking out what Andy had just said, "Jesus." Andy puts his partly still bloody hand on the side of Jesus' face, making Jesus look at him. "If you don't trust me don't tell me."

It hurt Andy that he said that. Made it feel like his heart was stabbed with a blunt object. And when Jesus nodded his head and pulled himself away from Andy it only hurt more.

Jesus starts to walk away from Andy when he sees Daryl being pushed through a door just down the side of the building. "I have to go."

Andy grabs Jesus' hand, which makes Jesus stop and turn to him.

"I'm sorry." Andy breathes with tears forming in his eyes. "I'm sorry for everything." Andy tightens his grip on Jesus' hand as the tears stream down his face. "For lea-eaving you, for ignorin-ing you, for hi-hitting you, fo-for everything."

Jesus lightly puts his right hand on Andy's face, and wipes away a few of the tears with his thumb. Just Jesus' touch was calming to Andy and he was grateful for it.

"I forgive you, Andy." Andy peers into Jesus' olive-green eyes. "For everything." Jesus pulls Andy into a hug.

"Hey Andy!" A loud deep voice yells, making Jesus and Andy quickly separate. "Where you at boy?" Jesus bunks under one of the vehicles and Andy steps out so he can be seen. 

"Hey, Brutus." The man is tall, beefy, and bald; could've been an actual killer before the end of the world, but no one knows. "What are you doing out here?"

"Don't ask stupid questions boy!" His voice and the way he called Andy boy reminded Andy of his Pops. "Negan is getting the iron out, so get your ass in here!"

"Alright, I'm comin'." Andy waves off Brutus, who goes back inside the building, then Andy turns back towards Jesus. "I've gotta-" Is all Andy gets out before he realizes that Jesus is gone. "Damn," Andy chuckles to himself, "sneaky little ass."

Andy bites his lip as he heads towards the door that Brutus was just hanging out of. Little did he know that Jesus was just two feet above him climbing the broken fire escape.

. . .

Jesus finds himself on a small section of roof above the second floor, peering through one of the many windows to see all the people inside gathered around a man strapped to a chair. Through all the people in the room he finds Carl, only knowing it's the kid by how small he is and the hat on his head. Then, it's not long before he finds the back of Daryl's head, with his dirty uncut and unwashed hair. 

. . .

Andy is only three feet away from Mark, who's strapped to the chair that's not too far away from the furnace where the iron sits getting scolding hot. The room is full of chatter and the sobs of Amber who stands with the rest of Negan's wives. Nothing really grabs Andy's attention, until his eyes fall on Daryl who's staring right back at him. 

Daryl knows those eyes, they're just like yours. He hasn't gotten a chance to talk to the guy, hasn't seen him since the night that he was thrown in the back of the truck either. Daryl tries to break the eye contact when he sees the confusion on the guy's face. But his blue eyes keep drifting back to him, then he guy starts to make his way over to him. 

Andy knows that the people in the sweatsuits aren't supposed to be talked to, he used to be one of them. But he needs to know why Negan's new plaything is staring at him. When Andy is close enough to talk to him without anyone noticing he goes to give it a try. 'Dwight's not paying attention,' Andy thinks, 'now's my chance.'

"Why do you keep staring me?" There was no blunt way of putting it and Andy knew it. Daryl glimpses over at Dwight to make sure he's not paying any attention.

"You remind me ah someone, dat's all." Daryl keeps his eyes on the ground, trying to keep people from noticing that they're talking.

A bunch of people go through Andy's mind of who he might look like. But he knows that Daryl might not know any of the men that he's thinking of. Then starts to realize something; the women in your closet, they were from Alexandria, Daryl is from Alexandria, they all must have met you, you must have met them. Andy's eyes widen as his mind juggles all of it and comes up with one question, 'Did Hilltop ask the Alexandria people to kill the Saviors in the satellite building?' He blinks that question away as he glances over at Daryl.

"Do you know my sister?" Daryl stays quiet. "Her name is (Y/N), she's at Hilltop." Daryl continues to stay quiet, "Many of the people here wouldn't think that your home and her's would know each other exist, but I know they do." Daryl can't help but turn his head towards Andy, and that give it all away, even with him not saying anything. "So, you do know my little sister."

"Yeah, I do." Daryl turns his head back towards the ground.

"Well, just so you know," Andy sighs while crossing his arms, "if you try to get close to her or anything like that and Negan finds out," Andy glances over at Daryl once more, "he'll kill you."

"He can try." Daryl says while glaring at the ground.

. . .

For the past fifteen after quickly looking around and watching that horror of a punishment, Jesus is laying on top of the truck that him and Carl road here.  It's been quiet and he hasn't Andy since that man called for him. 

"Get in there, kid." The truck starts to move underneath him as the weight shifts and people get into it. 

The truck starts and pulls the the front gate, where Jesus watched Carl gun two of the saviors earlier that day. 

"Daryl!" The voice is Negan's. "You seem worried, so I'm taking the kid home."

"If you do anything to him-"

"Dwight!" Jesus stays in the middle of the roof of the truck, so no one sees or hears him. "Daryl needs a time-out. Put him back in his box for a while."

The truck starts up again and starts to drive out of the front gates, Jesus finds himself jumping off into the trucks blind spot before it gets too far away from the building.

A/N

I wasn't sure about the last chapter and I'm not very sure about Andy and Daryl part in this one. But if you like it I guess it's alright.

Thanks for reading. All the love.
