Northbound by RandomCat

Summary:

Season 1 ZA AU. Daryl takes the last train out of Georgia because it's his last chance to make it out of Atlanta alive. He doesn't know where he's going or how long it will take to get there. All he knows is he's stuck in a boxcar with a family of three and the wife has the prettiest pair of blue eyes he's ever seen. Suddenly, he finds himself playing husband and father to the woman and kid.

He sure as hell doesn't know anything about that either.

Slow burn.
