daryl came home from a unsuccessful hunt he was dirty and covered in walker blood apparently well out hunting he fell into a hidden hole and got basically piled on by walkers luckily he was able to climb out after killing the walkers and without getting bitten and got home exhausted. you, carol, daryl, rick micchone, carl and judith all live in the same house together in Alexandria since it was pretty big

you walked out into the living room seeing that he finally got home he laid down on the couch with a soft groan

"Your a damn mess" you mutter walking closer looking down at him

he looks up at you and scoffs he knew he was a mess but he was sore and tired and didn't feel like dealing with it

"Come on.. you need to wash up before you get blood and dirt all over the house..."

he shifted and grumbled sitting up "can't ya just leave me be..." he mumbled tiredly

you roll your eyes "no. If Judith gets into that blood it's not gonna be good for her and no one wants to have to clean the whole house just because you won't wash up"

you gently grab his hand and pulled him he was too tired to fight so he just grumbled and followed you into the bathroom after a long time of convincing

he eventually undressed and awkwardly got into the bathtub with a soft grunt as the water hit his body it was nice to get all the blood and grime off of him but he hated how the soap stings his scars not to mention the fact you were seeing them you put some shampoo on your hands and started to wash his hair being gentle but you had to scrub out all the walker blood occasionally you'd hear him whimper in pain as some of the shampoo got onto one of his scars though he tried to act like it didn't hurt
