Chapter 6
Carol and Daryl walked into the kitchen, and everyone was finished eating, and Daryl walked over grabbing a bowl, and sat down eating as Carol smiled as she walked over to the children.
"You all ready to see what Santa brought for you all"?
"Yeah Rick said we had to wait for you, and Daryl where were you both"? Lizzie asked
"I didn't sleep well , and Daryl he was up late doing his rounds but we are wide awake now"
Carol walked over, and asked Rick if he wanted her to take Judith for a little while?
"No she is fine with me"
Daryl looked up, and he could see it hurt Carol , and he was not really happy about that. It was Christmas, and he promised Carol he would make this day special for the kids. If Rick continued making Carol feel like crap he may have to deal with that issue.
Carol touched Lizzie, and Mika's shoulder, and told the other children it was time to go see what Santa got. They all walked out of the kitchen and to the place they called the school room where Daryl cut down a tree, and they all decorated. Hershel was excited he got to play Santa handing out the gifts. The children were impressed they got some games, and candy, and Daryl found some really cool things for the boys, and he even found a dart board which Carol was a little worried about. Carol walked over knelling down , and handed Judith the gift from her.
Rick smiled as Judith did her best to rip the paper but when she saw the doll her eyes lite up, and she hugged it so tight. Everyone was looking they knew that was Sophia's doll. It was dirty when Carol got it back but she would never wash it but now it looked brand new. Carol cleaned it, and even made some new clothes for it. Judith was so happy, and Rick was surprised Carol would give his little girl something so precious to her.
"Carol why would you give up something that belonged to Sophia she will never allow you to take it back now"
"I know that I wanted to give it to her Sophia would have wanted it to. I know Sophia is gone, and giving Judith this makes me happy not sad"
"Thanks she loves it"
Rick sat back down, Carol walked over to Hershel, and gave him a kiss.
"You were amazing Hershel if only we had the red Santa suit "
"Well the kids don't seem to mind"
Carol smiled as Daryl walked over, and whispered, "Everything went well the kids are happy, and did you see the look on Little ass kickers face"?
"Judith loved her doll and I know Sophia would be proud of me for giving it to her"
"Are you ok Carol"?
"Yeah I am fine I just wish she was here she would love this"
Daryl pulled her close, and whispered, "She would be proud of you Carol, and so am I"
"Daryl promise me you will not leave me I would never survive without you"
Daryl whispered, "I am here, and I am not planning on going anywhere without you"
Carol moved close as they kiss but than they stop, and look around as everyone were looking at them.
"What are you all looking at go back to doing what you are doing"? Daryl said making Carol smile.
Glenn walked over, "Now I know what took you so long to come down"
"Oh shut up Glenn you don't know nothing"
"I think I do are you shy Daryl " Maggie walked over, "He will hurt you Glenn stop teasing them.
Carol laughed as Beth walked over, "You two a couple now I sure hope so it is about time"
"Are we a couple Daryl"?
"Yeah I guess we are a couple" He looked at Carol, and she brought her lips to his as Rick got up, and said.
"Ok we get it there are children here must you act like teenagers"?
Daryl was angry but Carol grabbed his arm, and said.
"Daryl lets go outside, and get some fresh air".
"I want to know what is wrong with Rick he is acting like a fool"
Rick turned, and walked away with Judith as Daryl whispered to Carol.
"I need to deal with this stay here, and don't worry". He walked away as Carol watched, and she wanted to know what was going on with Rick too. She tried to smile but everyone could see she was on the verge of crying as she excused herself, and went back to her room.
