~Beth~

"I- I- I am sorry," I heard him whisper. I was still wrapped in his embrace, that surprised me itself, but on top of the huh he said he was sorry.

I pulled away a bit, and looked up at him. He look different, like the wall he built up, to hide his emotions, had been broken down. The moment was almost perfect, but I had to try something.

I pressed my palms against his shoulders, and used my toes to push me up so my lips were across from his, and then I leaned in and gently brushed my lips against his.

I pulled away, and looked down at my feet. Studying my brown boots that were splattered in dried blood from who knows what. It seemed like forever, I just stood there looking at the floor, waiting for him to turn back to his regular self.

I suddenly feel his right hand on my cheek, putting his thumb under my chin, and he pushed up my face so I looked at him. He had a smirk on his face, and he suddenly leaned and pushed his lips on mine. And it wasn't just a small peck.

It took me by surprise, but a few seconds after I kissed back. Our lips moved together, in sync. And although the kiss was long and passionate, it felt rushed as we both pulled away.

And when I pulled away, a feeling of fear and dread filled my stomach. It was very dark now, and only the moonlight illuminated his face.

"Shit," he whispered, pulling out his crossbow. I couldn't even speak. He looked at me,"Okay. Got any ideas?"

I looked around. All I could see was trees, and even then, I couldn't really see them well. Then, I got an idea. "A- a tree. We can climb a tree and sleep there for the night," I whispered.

I couldn't see him, but I could tell that he was probably staring at me like I was crazy. "That's the craziest fucking thing I have ever heard... But, help me get up. I'll pull ya up after," he said motioning towards the branch above him. I put my hands down, and he stepped into into my hands, and then I quickly boosted him up, so he was able to jump up. He grabbed the branch, and pulled himself up.

I looked behind me, everything was so quiet... Almost too quiet. I heard him shuffle on the branch, and after a few seconds, he reached to hands down.

"Okay. Come on up," he said quietly, but I could tell he was smiling. I reached up for his hands, but couldn't reach. I stood up on my toes, and I felt my fingers barely brush across his.

"Come on Beth, hurry up," he whispered at me, sounding rushed and pretty nervous.

"I am trying," I whisper yelled, jumping up. I then sort of put my foot on the tree, to push my self against, then jump off of that, Daryl barely grabbing my wrists. He hoisted me up, and I sudden found myself leaning over his lap.

I sort of scooted over, pulling myself up the rest of the way, and hanging my feet over the side. "Beth, don' do that," he whispered. I looked over at him, he was leaning up against the tree trunks, and his legs were spread open, each on hanging over either side of the branch.

"Hey, your legs are hangin over too,"

I whispered. He chuckled.

"Yeah, but it will be less noticeable since the moonlight isn't hitting me," he laughed. I smiled at him, not like it really mattered, because he couldn't see it in the dark. It was silent for a little bit. It wasn't really an awkward silence, more just like a: We just kissed, now what?

"Beth," he said softly.

"Hmmmm?" I looked over at him. The moonlight sort of hit him, and I could see his smile.

"Do ya plan sleeping like that," he asked.

I hadn't really thought about that to be honest. I shrugged, and I heard him pat the tree trunk in front of him. I scooted over there, and placed myself in his lap.

I felt his hands wrap around my stomach, right above my waist, and pull my back on to him softly. I leaned up against him, and sighed.

"Daryl?"

"Huh?"

"You kissed me," I stated, but in a questioning tone.

"Yeah, and?"

"Why did you?"

I felt his stubble against my neck, as he leaned in towards it. He pressed his lips against my ear, making my breathing become uneven. I felt him smile and whisper,"The same reason ya did."

Whoah? What?!?! Anyway, how was is it my lovelias?🌺 I just wanted to let I know this AN is important, because I'm thinking about doing another Fanfiction, based off of the same thing, but just a little bit different. More intense probably, since this is basically based off of one episode, in which there weren't many walker encounters...

But yeah... Bye!
