My Lil' AssKicker

Ya Did Good, Judy.

DARYL’S POV

After Sasha left, Bethy walked over to Judith. She was in a trance-like state as she placed her long, thin fingers on Judy’s doll-like face.
Beth’s shoulders began to shake slightly. I placed a hand on the small of her back as I approached. “Beth?”
“How did this happen?” She uttered.
I sighed. “Maybe…. maybe it’s for the best.”
Startling me, Beth whipped around and punched me with weak fists. She fell into my arms, sobbing. “Don’t say that!” She buried her face into my shoulder. “She was seven, Daryl!”
I awkwardly rubbed her back. “This was no place fer a little girl.” I wiped a tear from my cheek. “She’s somewhere where the dead ain’t tryin to kill you. Someplace good, where she can act like a little girl fer once.”
Beth stepped back. “I need to take a walk.”
“Ok, I’ll take ya-”
She interrupted. “No. I’ll go alone.” Beth looked up at me with a tear streaked face. She nodded. She knew what I had to do.
“Sure, Bethy.” I managed to choke out. When she exited the tent, I knelt down beside Judith. She looked so serene. I was afraid to touch her, and found myself surprised when I slid my arms under her. I lifted her into my arms. I remembered that Judy was always light, due to being malnourished, but she was lighter than usual.
When she was perfectly cradled, her legs hanging over my muscular arms, I cooed, “Hey, lil ass kicker. I missed ya.”
No response. A few tears of mine fell onto her colorless cheeks.
“Now, I need ya to un’erstand. We all raised ya as best we could. I think we did a pretty swell job.” I sniffed. “You did good, Judy.”
Carefully, as not to disturb her, I reached for my revolver. It felt cold and menacing, and it’s feeling made me jump a bit. Had it always felt so cold?
I slowly lifted it out of it’s holster, hands shaking violently.
“Judith, this is what e’eryone wants for ya. You…. ya can’t be like them. Kay? Ya just can’t.” I couldn’t finish what I was saying. I was sobbing uncontrollably, until I felt like I would never breathe again. I wheezed, and Judith’s hair fell over her face.
“Now, now, lemme fix that.” I wailed quietly. With my hands shaking tremendously, I folded her soft hair behind her little, slightly pointed ears.
I took in every feature. The way her eyebrows slightly arched. How her long eyelashes, big eyes, and puckered lips made her look like a china doll. The way her little hand was cupped, so I could slip one or two of my fingers in, and she’d hold it like she was little. How her chest slowly rose and fell with her rhythmic breathing.
I looked away as I held the gun to her soft forehead.
“Wait.” I said aloud. I reached down and gave Judy a delicate kiss on her forehead. By the time I lifted my head back up, there was a pool of tears by her hairline.
I looked up again, and pointed the gun between her eyes. I sobbed as I felt for the trigger. It was cold, and sharp. I counted down from ten, willing myself to do it.
Ten.
Nine.
Eight.
Seven.
Judy was seven. She was small for her age, but boy, was she strong.
Focus. Six.
Five. The age she was when her daddy died. What would Rick say if he saw me now?
Four.
Three.
Two.
Shit, I’m a horrible person. This little girl looked up to me like a father.
One.
I tensed the muscles in my finger.
“Daryl?” A weary voice came from the tent.

Holy shit.
