*****Sofia's POV*****
Seeing Daryl awake, hearing his voice - it was something I'd longed for since that night, after Ashton landed him here in that hospital bed...
But I had to admit, now that it was finally happening, the nerves were hitting me hard.
Emma opened the door quietly, and I stepped inside behind her, my heart pounding as I saw Daryl propped up in bed, his eyes half-open, a faint smile tugging at his lips when seeing the pair of us. Relief washed over me at the sight of him, more awake and alert compared to the first time we had both visited his room...
"Sofia," he rasped out, his voice weak but warm.
His gaze met mine, his eyes filled with that familiar mixture of warmth and strength that had always been Daryl since the day we first met.
I swallowed back a wave of emotion, forcing myself to stay steady as I walked closer to his bedside. "Daryl... you have no idea how good it is to see you awake again."
He managed a chuckle, though it sounded more like a soft cough. "Good to see you too. From the look on your face, I'm guessing you didn't think you'd see me awake like this, huh?"
"Not after what happened," I admitted, my voice shaking slightly. "Daryl, I... I can't even begin to say how sorry I am. If I hadn't have "
"No, stop." His voice held a faint edge of authority that only he could pull off, even now. "Whatever you're thinking, don't. I'd do it all over again if it meant freeing you from that nutcase." My chest tightened at his words.
Daryl had always been a person I could count on like a true brother that I had always wished for, unlike what I had actually got...
But seeing him lying there, his face pale and exhausted, brought a thick sense of guilt to me that I couldn't quite shake.
Regardless of what he said, I would still blame myself for him winding up here like he did...
Emma, sensing my nerves, cleared her throat and gave my shoulder a comforting squeeze. "I'll give you both a few minutes alone," she said softly, which I nodded, thankful for.
