Roman Reigns fic announcement
Following the poll, Roman won. It will be a fake dating to real dating type fic, for ease of reading wrestling names will be used all the time. (I think thats pretty standard in this fandom)
There will be romance/hurt/comfort. Diamond is Cody's half sister so if you're sensitive to like abandonment/estranged sibling type stuff this isn't really gonna be the fic for you.
It's gonna be called Half A Sister But A Whole Lotta Woman.
Also yeah I know i have a lot of redhead ocs i just think red hair is pretty.

THE INTERVIEW
Roman and Kailani are invited on IMPAULSIVE and retell some very incredible memories, future plans and send a very heartwarming message.
(I won’t be quoting anything from the podcast but i will link it at the bottom, i wanted to take free will on the questions asked to fit in with the backstory and character of Kailani.)
“I’m on the internet and stuff, just watch SmackDown I run that show and Logan Paul will never have it.”
———
Kailani and Roman have been invited to make an appearance on the Podcast IMPAULSIVE run by Logan Paul, to say Kailani is a bit weary having not told a lot of her private life to fans.
“So welcome to IMPAULSIVE and today we have two guests which are currently the top superstars in the WWE Kailani Silva and Roman Reigns”
The duo walked into the camera view and over to George to take a seat.
“Hey guys how y’all doing?” Lani asks as she settles next to her husband, who slung his arm over her shoulder.
“We’re good thank you for joining us today, so we’re gonna got straight into it if that’s okay as we know you guys are very busy people” Logan Paul replied whilst looking at his notes.
The couple nodded with a chuckle in confirmation.
“So you two dare I say run the most dominant faction in the modern era, but you used to be in a faction that was almost as dominant in the short time it was in action, Kailani you didn’t debut with the group so how did you end up joining? what’s the story behind that?”
Roman looked over at Lani urging her to answer the question, taking a deep breath she began to speak.
“Well—- uh we knew each other down in WWE’s development program which was called FCW but now is obviously— NXT. We had worked some mixed tag matches.. not massive ones but little filler matches so we already knew we had good in ring chemistry. Seth I knew from Ring Of Honour— we’d met on the indie circuit before we both were privileged enough to be picked up by the WWE.. Dean— well to be honest I didn’t know Dean at all— only spoke to him a hand full of times… At the time I was actually looking to terminate my contract with the WWE and move back to indie wrestling because I just wasn’t happy with what I was doing and— I just missed the freedom of the independent companies I’d wrestled under— so Joe suggested the idea to Vince as a last minute option to make me stay.”
“I remember I went to Vince one night after RAW… because we had been talking and you mentioned that you were looking to leave to company. I just remember thinking that if you left I would have lost my chance with you, obviously me having feelings that I hadn’t admitted yet… so looking back now I realise I did make a bit of a selfish decision without asking you about your stance on the idea before hand — but now I wouldn’t change what I did for the world.”
“Lani you obviously debuted during the divas era, how would you say things are different in this era of not just the WWE but professional wrestling as a whole?”
“Well yeah I can certainly say a lot changed— back when I debuted the views on women’s wrestlers was that a lot of us were just sorta eye candy I guess, like we had five minute matches and were literally called divas which I found to be very degrading because you look back on what people like Trish and Lita and Chyna did in order to gain respect for the women of the WWE and then that got stripped away. If i’m gonna be honest and this might get me in some shit but it really was a joke and I was gonna quit but then I found my reason not to.”
Roman reached down and took his wife’s hand in his giving it a comforting squeeze know that it was a weird subject for her to reminisce about.
“You two are obviously married as mentioned in the Bloodline storyline, does that impact the way you preform in the ring when your wife is ringside. Does the personal and professional ever over lap?— Lani you obviously have been on the receiving end of some violence from Romans in ring competition, gracefully taking some bumps to save Roman.”
“Yeah we got married in 2016— so seven years ago and those years have been the best I mean she’s always been there for me even from the beginning, with the shield, the baby face push which didn’t do any good for my in ring career, my leukaemia, my remission and through the challenges of covid. I honestly couldn’t have wished for a better wife. Of course there will always be an underlying fear that Lani will end up getting injured because of her position in the Bloodline, If she got hurt in anyway I wouldn’t know how to cope. There’s always been extra safety precautions whenever she’s face to face with a male competitor. All i want is a happy and healthy wife— so i’d do anything to make sure nothing would happen.”
Lani looked up at her husband with a look one could only describe as pure, true love.
“Kailani you haven’t had a title defence or a one on one match since you retained the title against Ronda at Extreme Rules, whats going on with that?”
Roman, who now had his hand oh his wife’s knee squeezed gently to offer some comfort.
“— I hadn’t been feeling too well leading up to my match with Ronda, she’s the kind of opponent that if your not 100% then you’re gonna get whooped so going in to the match i was definitely hesitant… but i wanted to be a fighting champion. I did my job, we had one hell of a performance and i retained my title — but even after the match i was still really not feeling like myself so i went to the medical staff we have backstage and had some tests run. As of right now i’m not fit for in ring competition.”
“Now.. i want to ask your guys opinion on something— you two obviously being very experienced wrestlers and the faces of the company… how do you think i’m doing?— i mean i didn’t want to come in a be like this social media guy looking for his fifteen minutes of fame in a wrestling ring.”
“You know what Logan— I think you’re alright.. I remember the first couple SmackDowns you showed up in as a regular… I can’t lie, it did take me a while to warm up to you because to us— wrestling is our lives. You know it’s not one of those hobbies you just pick up and hyper fixate on for a couple months then drop it…this is the WWE— it’s the big leagues, but you do put in the effort because it translates over when you wrestle for tv and premium live events. Everyone has those couple months where your’e just trying to feel out what’s best for you. I mean Joe after The Shield ended— just.. you had some bad booking where nothing was meshing correctly— i mean the suffering succotash promo speaks for itself.”
Kelani teases her husband poking fun at the few shitty promos Vince had made him say during the part of his career as a baby face where no one actually liked him but the higher ups continued to shove Roman Reigns down the audiences throat. 
“Everyone has moments where they choke up or blank in a promo— especially early on in your career.. it’s part of getting used to the grind of being a wrestler. As you progress and you gain more experience you learn to handle those situations— I still blank now but I know how to seamlessly move on. I use the crowd to my advantage— just pause and stare and I know they’ll react. If you go out there and try to recite word for word what you need to say the fans can feel that it holds no emotion. If you mess up and it’s clean enough for you to carry on, clear your throat and do that. I draw that noise from the crowd because it plays into my character and then by the time I start talking again— they’ve completely forgotten that I messed up my words.”
The interview had carried on for about 45 minutes after that question with any and every question being asked and then having received an in-depth response and explanation, many of the fans watching had noticed the body language between the married couple. Roman constantly having his hand on her stomach and we’re quick to start a wildfire of assumptions about it. The WWE Superstar was quick to put an end to rumours.

Here are some ideas for Roman if you guys write any please tag me id love to read them :)
You can use their actual names it doesn't have to just be ring names if you are comfortable with that
★favorite ideas
Y/n relinquishing her title and announcing her pregnancy with Romans baby
★Could you write maybe when Roman was on Logan Paul's podcast maybe the reader was also there and they answer questions about their relationship. They have been together since high school so they did everything together.
★The reader and Joe(roman) were best friend when they are younger but the reader had to move away and they lost contact now all these years later when she becomes a wrestler and sees her best friend who happens to be her crush(happy ending you can add whatever you'd like also)
Nobody knew that Y/n was married let alone in a relationship, till she finally decides to show off her husband the one and only tribal chief
Maybe you could do a social media/real life thing like Y/n works for WWE she doesn't have to be a wrestler but she has a huge crush on Roman and tweets about him all the time in a flirting way and roman starts flirting back
★Roman breaking character for his wife and kids when they are at a show
I kinda wanna know how the reader would react to the ‘my real name is joe’ and then ‘i'm in remission y'all’ either when it happend or later in life (as his girlfriend)
What if Roman had a sugar mama/girlfriend who spoiles the fuck out of him, buys him a ton of stuff ,gives him money and pampers him big time
Roman is the tribal chief and his wife is in the army and comes home to surprise him at one of his events and obviously breaks character when he sees her ★
Y/n has a boyfriend who is an ass and is cheating on her when one day her best friend roman was worried about after her not answering him he shows up at her house to check on her and also becomes her hero(with a love confession)
Y/n has been married to Joe for 10 years been together 15 years and decides to get a couple tattoos for him maybe like his initials on her ring finger and something else and then his reaction
Mafia Roman who is only nice to his very sweet girlfriend who dresses in very girly girl clothes dresses, short skirts, don't get me wrong she can kill someone if she needs but is very soft girl with roman
Alpha!Roman finding his true mate Omega Y/n
Y/n meeting her soulmate on her first day at work who happens to be the tribal chief (maybe being able to see colors for the first time when meeting each other or their initials on their wrist)
Timeline of Joe and his wife from over the years since they got together in highschool
Y/n finding out roman was arrested when he was younger and laughs about it
Roman learning how to do his girlfriend's hair

Hi guys I have some Tim Bradford x reader ideas that you all can use if you'd like :)
-Tim and Y/n are high school sweethearts but they go there separate ways not because they want to but for some reason, and y/n moves to LA (maybe sometime after the break up with Rachel) and meets tim again after she calls 9-1-1 for help and they reconnect
-Tim has a wife and a kid that only grey and Lopez knew about when Tim gets infected the rookies find out about his family he keeps hidden
-Tim's fiancee gets arrested when a cop (let's say Lucy or someone) (this is after they are rookies) arrests her because she looks like a suspect they already caught, his fiancee told them she was engaged to Tim but they didn't believe her and Tim gets mad at the officer
-Lucy doesn't know Tim is married so it was a shock when she met his wife Dr Bradford after she got stuck with a needle and she sees a different kind of Tim while he is with his wife
-Everyone bad mouthing Tim saying “who would want to be with a hard ass” and stuff like that and y/n over hears it and defends Tim completely outting their relationship but not caring
-Y/n being a badass and shutting down Ashley who was trying to flirt with Tim (her boyfriend) and Tim just being proud of her and everyone else just laughing at her jealousy
-Y/n is a high level drug dealer and Tim arrested her one day, she basically became his C.I years later anytime Tim is in trouble she find out from someone on the streets and she shows up to help him, and over time they just fall in love
-Y/n and Tim met a long time ago in the military they were inseparable(had a flirty relationship), y/n gets injured and has to be discharged her and tim lose contact with each other, but meet again when she becomes a rookie he rookie to be exact (let's pretend Tim isn't married for this) y/n and Tim reconnect (maybe the other cops who know tim are really confused on why they get along so well, and why he is actually smiling) you can do whatever else just happy ending please
-Y/n was in the military for a long time, she transferred from NYPD to LAPD because half way during her rookie year she couldn't take the cops there everyone undermined her and never understood how good she was even though she had military background, when she transferred over she got tim bradford as her training officer someone who understood the military background well, they continue to work together and get closer and eventually start dating
-Y/n defending Tim against Lucy after Lucy was bad mouthing Tim for something that wasn't his fault
-Tim introduces his boyfriend to his friends. I just really want bi Tim
-lucy's sister moves to town and Lucy introduces Tim and Y/n but maybe already know each other [(either really good friends or dating)(if friends they eventually end updating)] and Lucy is upset at her sister because she never told her and maybe Lucy has feelings for Tim but he doesn't feel that same way
-Y/n is a biggg football fan and meets Tim at a game, they keep in contact after words and make it a date going to games
-Tim having a younger girlfriend who he treats like a princess and spoils the hell out of her and she I really the only one who he is nice too
-One of the new rookies try to flirt with Tim not realizing his girlfriend or wife was behind them
-Everyone always thought Tim was single but that's just because he doesn't like people in his business so when a woman kisses Tim everyone is shocked to say the least
-Everyone finding out Tim has a famous girlfriend who plays baseball in the WNBA
-Tim and y/n find out they are pregnant/ telling their friends they are expecting
-y/n is in love with her best friend's dad.. but oddly enough her best friend seems okay with it, happy even. She's shocked to find out he feels that same way (y/n and her friend are in there 20s)
-i need a mean Lucy to y/n who is Tim's girlfriend because she is jealous because she is in love with Tim but he doesn't feel the same way at all
-Tims girlfriend being his own TO or an old Sargent who moved on to FBI comes to visit Tim at work and the rookies know who she is but then are really curious about you and Tim's relationship
-Tim's girlfriend was pregnant before meeting him but the baby daddy didn't want it, Tim and Y/n become close friends and eventually dating and Tim become the kids dad and maybe in of the rookies find out it's not actually Tim's kid and they say something bad about it and he flips out
-Tim having a shy girlfriend who the rookies pick on because she is so quiet (protective Tim)
-Tim is only nice to one person y/n it confuses everyone but nobody knows they've been together for years, until they do find out
-Tim had a best friend when he was younger she always looked out for him and took care of him but her family found out they were dating and she had to move away when they were 17 and he hasn't seen her since… till she walks into the police department as a detective, and they finally reunite which each other after so long of not seeing each and they finally get a chance to be together like they always wanted.

I Found Yea, Bunny
Daryl Dixon • She/Her Pronouns • Never did he think he’d find anyone to love him, then when someone did. The world ended • ANGST/SFW/NSFW • TW: Canon Violence / PTSD / Anxiety Attacks / Injuries
Note
“You still moping baby brother?” Merle kicked Daryl’s leg to get him to say anything. “What? Ain’t gonna talk when you’ve convinced me to stay at this pig’s camp? Come on Darylina, you’re killing me here”
“Fuck off Merle. Ain’t you going on that run?”
“Yeah, but the second I come back. No survivors” Merle jokes for the most part as he picks up his hunting rifle. “Seriously. If you’re still moping and being a lil bitch because of Y/N you just gotta get over it. She’s gone”
Hearing that last part for probably the millionth time, only started to trigger him. She can’t be gone kept him standing.
________
“See that chick over there? The short one”
“I don’t care about your next catch of the week, Merle.” Daryl scoffs taking another sip of his beer when a waiter walks by setting now another set of beers without either of them asking. “Hey wait I ain’t—“
“Curtesy of the two lovely ladies over there” They state before taking Merle’s empty one and heading back behind the bar.
Merle instantly wraps his arm around his brother staring at the two with him seeing obviously the more confident one wave at them as the other was more shy.
“I’ll take the taller one with the nice rack, and you take the shy one” Merle whispers patting his back making Daryl choke on his beer quickly wiping at his face as the two made their way over. “Heya ladies”
“Hey yourself, mind if we join you?” The one Merle was eyeing inches closer to his person making the smirk grow on his face.
“This is going to be a disaster” Daryl whispers to himself only for the other woman to giggle to his words.
“Wanna bet who’s going to ruin it? She’s not the steadiest drunk�� She whispers back smiling when one started to crack out on his face.
“Bet it’s my brother and…?”
“I’ll bet on my friend Rachael. But I will most likely win”
“And why is tha—“ Daryl stops talking when Racheal suddenly jumped Merle’s bones right then and there. Knocking off her glass and his beer resulting in the broken glass. “Shit.”
“Nights still young I guess” the woman laughs watching the two roll on the dirty bar ground making one of the bar keeps come over to smack them with the broom to get up. “Didn’t catch your name by the way…didn’t get his either but he’s busy”
“Daryl…you?”
“Y/N”
________
“Why did you…not give up? Like the others did…yeah me askin’ shouldn’t matter anymore because..” Carol still couldn’t believe the whole barn situation, let alone what happened to her daughter.
“I’ve lost enough.”
And with that Carol knew more about Daryl than anybody else. He didn’t go into the grand details about it, all that before he and Merle met the quarry group…Daryl was looking for his other half. Not giving a damn of what Merle had to say about it. They hunted, stayed alive, and searched. That was it until something secure came along.
But seeing Rick be with his family, after being separated for months…Daryl wanted that same feeling. That same joy of being reconnected with the one you love.
Now the second good thing after the CDC, the farm was up in flames as Daryl got him and Carol out of there on his bike.
________
“Hey stranger” Y/N smiles letting Daryl into her studio as he was already looking around the place.
“You took these?” Daryl points to the still of the wildlife on one of the many tables as Y/N walks up beside him smiling.
“Yeah, cool right?”
“How’d yea manage to get them to stay still?”
“You said you hunt right? With your brother?” Y/N tilts her head waiting for Daryl’s confirmation which was a nod and a grunt. “Imagine without your weapon and bright orange vests…a camera and a bit more camouflage”
“You…being careful right?”
“Oh I don’t do this in hunting grounds, or well. Forests that have been reported to have people hunt in them before.” Y/N reassures hun with her always shining smile, letting him continue to go through the photos. “I have been asked to document hunters for a catalog. Going to get a few new hunting rifles and a couple compound bows, if you and your brother are interested”
Daryl thought about it as he couldn’t help the joy bubbling in him to hang out with her again. That night at the bar lead to coffee in the morning while his brother and her best friend were still occupying Daryl’s shitty apartment, and another night for drinks but just the two of them to get to know one another without taking care of somebody other than themselves, which brought them to Y/N’s studio that she was also living in.
“Yeah, why not”
Y/N squeals happily and hugging on Daryl as he instantly wrapped his arm around her. “You’re going to look great”
“Maybe bring Racheal to occupy Merle”
“Oh totally, or nothing will get done”
________
Daryl lays uncomfortably on the rocks after rolling down it from when the horse bucked him off and from using what little energy he had to try and scale the steep mountain to get back to the farm. He was in and out of consciousness when he perked up hearing her laugh.
“You’ve got yourself in a pickle, baby” Y/N knelt down beside Daryl’s body gently caressing his face. “Did Merle do this?”
“Nah baby….H-Horse…”
“Now you never learn from that one time, and you weren’t even the one bucked off that horse” She laughs and he couldn’t help the painful smile he wore listening to her. He was willing to die just listening. But he couldn’t. “Stay awake D. Once you find that sweet girl, you gotta find me.”
And with that. He did his best. His best got him back to the farm, walker looking and all, next thing you know.
Fire
Thud
Pain. A whole lot of fucking pain.
Once they questioned Daryl about what he found and Hershel having his priorities confirmed, he was finally left alone to recover in the safety of the house. Letting him get some much needed sleep.
________
Daryl watches her sleep peacefully beside him listening to her cute little snores and watching her curl up inching closer to his person. He couldn’t help himself by closing the space and gently wrapping his arm around her sleep form feeling her do the same pulling herself into his chest. He smiles listening her satisfied sigh when she finally got comfortable in his embrace.
“Stop watching me and sleep…” Y/N mumbles in a sleepy daze, smiling feeling him shift to cage her in his embrace. “Goodnight baby”
“Sweet dreams bunny”
________
He couldn’t help the tears that spilled waking up the next morning.
•
The prison became their home after they lost so much and fought for their safety.
Daryl wishes that the bus of Woodbury folk held his other half in it. But as he came to disappointment once again, he went back to it. Taking daily runs just to search for her and would always come back empty handed on that front. At least he doesn’t have to watch his found family starve or freeze to death given he’s been bringing back everything he could find. Feeling a little bit of joy in their happy faces when his runs were never focused on that to begin with. But just as important.
“Hey Daryl, hold up a sec” Glenn calls out to him right as Carl and Rick were about to open the gates for him.
“Need somethin’?”
“Yes and no…” He sighs. “We need to save up on gas for the run to that mega store. Don’t get me wrong, what you’re doing is helpful. But we really need to be more careful with our limited supplies”
Daryl knew he was using the supply they’ve had to do these runs and it was going to be brought up eventually. Guess his spontaneous runs at any hour, every day, have come to an end.
“Hey pookie” Carol smiles, enjoying the fact that that nickname annoys Daryl, watching him sit down beside her at one of the tables outside. “Couldn’t go on the run?”
“Got told not to. It’s whatever”
“Mmm. Is it though?” Carol nudges Daryl for more of what’s on his mind. More of why he does these runs. “You’ve always been looking for something and every time you come back with much needed supplies…but the look of disappointment rest in your eyes. Daryl what are you looking for out there?”
Carol is one of the few that Daryl trusts with his life and part of him didn’t want to talk about it. Or it brings the thought of loss back in his mind. The same thought that has him laying wide awake at night or waking to the anxiety inducing nightmare that his other half was ripped apart from the undead and or tortured by the monsters of men that litter the new world. But he couldn’t keep it a secret for much longer…
“My girl”
________
“Hey! You made it” Y/N smiles removing herself from the small group surrounding one of her photos displayed so that Daryl could happily bring her into his embrace. “Surprised Merle released you from whatever devilish act he had planned”
“A six pack did it”
“Figures” Y/N smiles parting from Daryl just enough to take his hand and walk with him through the whole exhibit. It was more than her art on display but Daryl could care less about the rest. Only hers was the best.
Daryl waited for the showcase to be over and he hung back to help take down what wasn’t sold of Y/N’s work. But also for him to have a more intimate moment with her.
“I’ve got somethin’”
“Yeah?”
“And I don’t wanna scare yea off, or think I’m moving too quick” Daryl sets down the once hanging piece to lean up against the wall before reaching into his pocket to take out a ring. Y/N was about to drop the pieces she was holding if Daryl didn’t explain himself right away. “It ain’t engagement. Even if I’m sure yer it for me, more a promise. Until the real deal”
“D, this isnt like…the blood money from Merle—-“
“Nah I stopped doing his crazy shit a bit ago. Have been doing commission for bikes and got a gig at a garage…you’ve…made me better and just wanted to do somethin’. Showed me love without consequence or pain…I just. Gotta know—-“
“I love you” Y/N cuts him off, setting everything in her hand down so that she could let him put the ring on her finger before taking his face gently in her hands. “You don’t have to say it back immedieatly. Timing is different for everyone…but I love you, and I know I want you in my life for the rest of it. Even after”
Daryl instantly pulled her flush against him feeling her arms find their spot around his neck as his around her waist. Taking in everything about her in that moment.
She was his other half
________
And he was hers
“Aaron, I don’t think these people will take our offering like it’s nothing. It just randomly appears”
“What do you suggest then?”
“We’re talking suggestions now?”
“Yeah, cuz Deanna saw potential with you in recruitment so thought I’d ask” Aaron whispers to Y/N beside him as the two were tracking a group for some time now.
“Our community isn’t the only one. That’s the feeling I get. These people, we don’t know if they got screwed over or not. They will be hostile and we can’t take that like it’s nothing”
“So…give up or what”
“I didn’t say that. Just if we get caught. Or Eric. Stand your ground but not with your weapon.” She frowns not liking the sound of the commotion coming from this group she couldn’t get a clear look of. “We need these people to trust us. And the element of surprise, is awful in this hell” she takes the binoculars from Aaron to get a look but were caught off guard by a walker approaching that he took care of. “Never was much a fan of surprises in the old world…”
“Didn’t you say your husband surprised you with that ring you’re wearing?”
“Yeah but that’s different”
“How so?”
“He was my other half” Y/N stored the binoculars in her back when the rain started. “We should head back to Eric, and discuss our next course of action”
“I agree with that notion” Aaron covered her back as they made their way to the cars they brought out from their community.
________
“One of my buyers, thought I got married because of my ring” Y/N fiddles with one of Daryl’s many wrenches from his work station in her garage as he was working on her car.
“What’d yea say?”
“Played along. I like the thought of you as my husband. My big strong protective sweetheart husband” She smiles watching the tips of Daryl’s ears turn a bright red when he said such as he tried to cover them for a moment.
“Told the guys at the garage yer my wife anyway”
“Really?!”
“Yeah, so they know if they fuck with yea. I’m knocking their teeth in” Daryl held his hand out for her to place the wrench she was messing with in such.
“But they can get the hint just from girlfriend”
“I’d be lying if I said I didn’t like the idea”
“Is that you asking me Daryl Dixon?”
“Yea want it to be?” He stops working to look at his girl who became a blushing mess at the thought, especially when he smirked at her knowing damn well she’d like that.
“I’d like some display. Nothing too public. Just us still” Y/N smiles spreading her legs from her seat on his bench for him to slot himself perfectly between them. Leaning into her, resting his hands on the table. “What?”
“I’ve got somethin’ but for now, yer my wife to everybody who asks”
“Unless it’s Merle and Racheal”
“Motherfuckers would be like “took yea long enough” let’s be real”
“Very true Dixon” She smiles pressing her lips against his shortly after as he quickly picks her up holding her up by the thighs. “Baby!”
“Think I need a break with my bunny” He smirks kissing her once more before carrying her inside.

“I’m not alone”
“Really now?” Rick glares into Aaron’s soul as he quickly drops everything in his person to avoid getting hurt even further if that was bound to happening. “Who else is with you?”
“My partner and my best friend. Except my friend is closer to this location”
“And y’all didn’t find her?” Rick questions Maggie and Sasha as the two looked at each other confused before watching the retired sheriff take Aaron by the collar. “Where the fuck is she?”
“Her husband was a t-tracker. Hunter—-she knows how to hide. Says it’s what saved her from outbreak day to now” Aaron was close to shaking but what he said perked the attention of the archer who stopped aiming his crossbow at him. “I can call her but you have to let go of me…”
“Rick” Daryl interrupts whatever thought he was having about such as Rick gave him a confused look. “Trust it. Let him. Now.”
The confused look stuck as he lets go of Aaron for him to reach into his bag keeping eye contact with Rick as he took his radio out.
“Dixon, come out.”
The name caused the group to look at Daryl confused but then suddenly ready their weapons to the ceiling of the barn when they heard a loud thud, then a roll, and finally footsteps outside the building. Daryl brought himself past Aaron to the door when they opened to reveal exactly who he’s been looking for.
“I told him he was only going to trigger y’all too—-“ Y/N stops speaking when she locked eyes with Daryl who hesitantly inched closer to her.
Daryl couldn’t help the overwhelming urge to grab her and pull her into his embrace as he brought himself right up to her.
“So, Dixon huh?”
“Like you’d want my last name…” Y/N tried, and failed to keep the tears from falling as she drops everything on her latching onto Daryl feeling his arms tighten firmly around her. “Hey baby”
“I found yea, bunny. I knew I would”
