you and daryl have always been close you felt safer with him then the rest of the group he saved you before the group found the prison and ever since then you've never left his side for long and as much as he grumbled about how clingy you were he had to admit it was kinda nice to have someone always there for him

when you, him and the rest of the group came to Alexandria it was nice to have two houses and some bit of safety after being on the road for so long the first couple nights you all slept together in the living room but eventually you all got separate rooms atleast for the most part.

the first night you had to sleep alone you got freaked out every sound startled you it was hard for you to just close your eyes and rest you just felt unsafe so you got up and walked down into the basement where daryl slept the stairs creaking as you walked your feet patted on the cold floor as you approached his bed

"Daryl?" you whispered trying not to spook him

daryl flinched slightly and goans softly sitting up "mph?" he mutters sleepily looking over at you trying to register what's going on as he was half asleep before you woke him up
