(Daryl's POV)

I left Alexandria to find her. She knew how to be sneaky but I was a good tracker so I found her tracks. I saw her making a tent, she was smart and remembered what I taught her.

She grabbed her gun and pointed it at where I was, I went in and she sighed.

"What are you doing here?" asked (y/n)

"I need to tell you somethin'"

(y/n POV)

I nodded and pointed to a log, "Sit down."

Daryl sat down and played with his crossbow.

"What's wrong?"

"Remember when you found me and my dad was beatin' me?" asked Daryl

I winced," Yeah, the last time I saw you."

"Don't be sorry 'bout it. I loved ya then and still do," said Daryl

"Dixon, are you saying you still love me?"

He nodded, "Yeah."

I smiled and leaned my head against his shoulder, "I do too."

He stood up and I did too, he cupped my face and leaned in. I missed his sweet, deep kisses. I smiled while he kept kissing me.

"I love you, Dare."
