The Dixon's Best Friend. [Daryl Dixon Fanfiction.]

Just Another Relapse.

(2019 update, i was gonna delete the whole author note, but i'm keeping the trigger warning for self harm and blood, and yikes)

I stood, wavering slightly starring at my half packed bag. 

"You ready yet?" Michonne questioned from the doorway. She was grounded for two months, and it was all my fault.

"Mom! THAT IS SO NOT FAIR!" Michonne exclaims folding her arms over her chest and glowering at her mother.

"Michonne you left without our permission! You travelled to New York! On your own! And then you broke into an apartment where a druken man lived! Then you and Athena caused a ruckas outside apartments and it was reported to the authorities! THEN ATHENA GOT HIT BY A TRUCK!" Her mother had a point, I saw it, but it was still unfair.

"I wasn't on my own, I was with Athena! She's been in New York twice before, she knew what she was doing. And Merle is not a drunk and we didn't break in! They let us in willingly. And I'm blaming Daryl fucking Dixon for the noise!" Michonne also had a point, but at the moment my head was spinning and the noise was just making it worse and I silently begged them to shut up.

"Michonne, this is the end of it, two months. You go to school, you come home, that's it!" Michonne pouted and tightened her grip on her arms and sat down in the seat next to my hospital bed.

"Sorry Michonne." I whisper softly, curling up on my side to face her.

"S'okay." She murmurs, fuming at her mother.

I didn't have the much stuff to pack, so packing didn't take that long with Michonne's help. I'd been in hospital for two weeks, they didn't want to let me out until they were sure I'd heal properly. My mom had left by the end of the first week, it didn't matter though, Michonne and her mother stayed for the whole time.

I had expected Daryl and Merle to stay too. But they didn't. They left, with no explanation for it. It hurt like a bitch, like a real bitch.

Michonne's mom was driving, she was taking us home, dropping me and my medications off and my house and then driving Michonne home. I wished Michonne could come back to mine, I didn't want to be alone. Not now. Not ever. 

But I had no choice, so as Michonne's mother pulled up outside my house, I thanked her, and thanked Michonne as I got out so did Michonne. "I'll walk you up." She said quickly. 

She carried my bag for me, and then handed it to me as we reached the porch. 

"Can't you convince your mom to let you stay, just for one night?"

"Dude, I'm grounded, she never grounds me. It won't happen." I try to surpress the sigh that leaves my lips, but I just can't. 

"Maybe we can meet up during lunches, I mean we'll only be together for like ten minutes between getting to each other and back, but it's better than nothing right?" Michonne grins and nods.

"You're always full of ideas."

"Such as randomly heading up to New York?"

"Such as that you fool." I press my finger against my lips and shush her. She laughs quietly, then pulls me into a nearly bone crushing hug. 

"I love you, you know that right?" She whispers right in my ear.

"I know." I say with a sigh. "I love you too."

"Good, cause if you didn't well, let's just say you'd be back in the hospital." I scoff and roll my eyes at her. "Shup."

She grins, but as she goes to say something her mother beeps the horn several times. Michonne rolls her eyes and groans. "I'll see you."
