   Summary

   "'I read somewhere,' Carol says. 'If you love something, set it free. If it comes back, it's yours forever. If it doesn't, then it was never yours at all.'

   But Daryl snorts. 'Fuck that," he says. 'I come back, you best put a bullet in me.'"

   In which Daryl gets bitten, and Rick's not ready to let him go. Maybe for good reason. Rick/Daryl slash

   Spoiler: NOT character death. Because I'm a weak human being.
