Like he had said. It didn't take long for him to track down where Beth was. Once he found her he backtracked. She was already hanging out with some guy. That didn't take long, did it? Whatever. It didn't really bother him. She looked alright and was acting like normal, so that was good enough for Daryl for now. He figured it was probably better to let Beth have a few hours with Maggie too before he walked up like some damn lost puppy making sure she was alright.
It wasn't like he felt like her damn puppy. He failed to protect her - just like everyone else in that damn prison - and he had to make sure for himself that she was alright. Meryl, Sophia, Hershel. The list was too long and Daryl was sick of feeling like he couldn't do anything to save anyone. The world had gone to shit (even more than it was already), and it seemed like nothing was left in the world that was good. That was when Beth punched through those emotional walls he kept up and proved that there was some good left. She was good. Which made her something precious to protect, even more so than her being part of his family. There wasn't anything romantic or boyfriend about it. She was family and important to him. Which meant that he'd probably go to Hell and back if she told him to. Just like he would if Rick asked him to, or Carol.
He glanced up through his long bangs as the doors to Tower Two opened. Daryl raised his head and leaned back against the wall with the crossbow in his lap. Like hell he was gonna admit he'd been waiting for Beth to walk out of that damn tower.
