This is my first attempt at writing anything for an audience. I fell in love with Bethyl and knew I had to put my own spin on them.

It is a one shot of Daryl and Beth's first time together. Rated M for smut and language. It's not set at any particular time in the series.

It's what I would love to see happen after they are reunited in series 5 ( I refuse to believe they won't be ) , as they are just the cutest couple ever. I also think Daryl deserves some love action, he hasn't had any since the dead started to walk the earth and he is after all a red blooded redneck.

There isn't much dialogue, as I wanted to stay true to the characterisation in the show, Daryl isn't much of a talker and I don't think this would suddenly change in the bedroom. He talks with his body and shows his feelings through his actions so I tried to encapsulate this. "The signs are all there, jus' gotta know how to read 'em"

Better than Love

Beth's POV

He stood in front of her, this was it. No turning back. She'd made her mind up, she wanted him like she'd never wanted anything in her life and she wasn't about to let him stop her, she wouldn't take no for an answer. She looked up at him, her eyes wide, filled with love and a wanton desire for the man who had saved her, protected her and even loved her, in his own way.

She raised her hands to his chest and lightly placed them on his vest. She could feel the hard muscle underneath and inhaled sharply as a shudder ran through her body. She cocked her head to really look at him, eyes wide and burning. He looked back at her with a desire she thought would set her soul on fire. She felt her cheeks colour, unsure if it was the intense way he was looking at her or the thought of what was to come. She knew then he wouldn't refuse her.

She moved her hands from his chest and ran them either side of his neck and through the hair at his nape. For a moment he seemed to hold his breath, afraid to make a sound. She liked his hair longer, it made him look younger and a lot sexier. She leant into him, closing her eyes and placing her lips to his, they were surprisingly soft and warm. She was breathing heavier now, her heart thudding against her ribcage. She pressed her lips harder into his when he responded by gently licking the spot where her lips met. That was all the encouragement she needed, she entwined her fingers in his hair pulling him closer, opening her mouth to allow his tongue inside. Their tongues met, each caressing the other. She felt weak as her legs threatened to buckle from under her, she moaned into the kiss and fought to steady herself.

Daryl was holding her by the waist when he slowly let his hands fall around her hips until he was gripping her rear with his palms. He started to trail kisses over her jaw, her neck and her shoulder, all the time squeezing her firm ass through her jeans. She was moaning, her stomach in knots at the passion coursing through her body. He felt so good, his warm, wet mouth almost burning her pale soft skin as it glided across slowly. She let her hands roam over his muscular shoulders, down his tanned arms and back up to his chest, this time under his shirt. She wanted to feel his skin under her fingers. She moved one hand to the collar on his shirt and started to undo the buttons while running the other through his sparse chest hair. She finished undoing the buttons and pushed the shirt back over Daryl's shoulders, it fell to the floor taking his leather angel vest with it. He was naked from the waist up, she'd never seen anything so beautiful, the sight made her gasp. Daryl moaned from the shiver he felt, a combination of the chill from losing his clothes and the gentle touch of the woman in front of him.

Daryl moved his hands from Beth's rear and ran them around the hem of her tank top right where it met the top of her jeans. It tickled a little but Beth held back from giggling. He swiftly pulled both her arms above her head and then peeled the tank top upwards over her stomach, chest, head and arms, letting it fall to the floor behind her. She put her arms back down by her side while Daryl took in every inch of her perfectly formed breasts, tongue gently brushing over his lower lip in appreciation. She had never been topless in front of a man before, let alone one she was hot for, but she liked it. Her nipples were already hard and he hadn't even touched her yet. Her heart was pounding, the sound loud in her ears, threatening to give her away to the man only inches from her. He didn't seem to notice. He bent forward and ran kisses down Beth's chest until he reached her nipple, she felt his warm wet mouth close in around it, gently flicking his tongue over the hard end. His hand cupped her other breast giving it a gentle squeeze, while his other hand was back over her rear, pulling her heat into his still growing erection. She moaned, mouth against his ear, hot desperate pants escaping her swollen lips. Her head was spinning, it felt like every nerve ending across her body would explode if he didn't stop now.

He didn't stop, he continued his assault on her body, exploring all that she had, grinding his hips into her warm centre, kneading her breasts, sucking and licking her nipples. Every whimper she made was matched by a deep guttural groan from him, the vibrations dancing across her skin. She needed more of him, she let her fingers find the top of his jeans and then deftly undid his zipper, pushing her small hand into his boxers. She wrapped her fingers around the silky skin of his hard cock, he was huge, her hand feeling so small against his length, with a firm grip she moved her hand gently up and down, using the wetness from his end as lubrication. Beth's efforts were rewarded with the sound of Daryl moaning her name through heavy laboured breaths, head thrown back and eyes closed, hands either side of her neck tugging at the long blond hair that fell around her shoulders.

''Shit Beth, if you keep doin' that I ain't gonna last''

Daryl's reaction caused a new found confidence to take hold of her. She pulled her hand out of his boxers and used both hands to push him backwards onto the bed. She grabbed his jeans and boxers and pulled them down over his rear, down his legs and off onto the floor in one swift movement. He was naked, lying there before her, covered in a thin sheen of sweat, his perfect form glistening in the moonlight. Every muscle and scar clear to see, he was nothing short of perfection, strong arms, sculpted stomach, huge thick cock standing to attention for her, because of her. Why he wanted her was a mystery, but she knew he did, and right there, right then, that was enough for her.

She knew he was close. Beth wanted him to finish in her mouth, she needed to taste him, needed him to know she wanted all of him. She knelt between his legs and started to kiss along the inside of his thighs, the soft downy hair tickling her face as she made her way towards his cock. He was propped up on his elbows, looking at her through those wild blue eyes of his but didn't say a word. She wondered if he was enjoying what she was doing or if it had just been so long since he'd been with a woman, he couldn't help himself. She hovered over him and started to glide her tongue along his shaft. He gave a low growl and moaned her name, which was all the answer she needed . She took the end between her lips and began swirling her tongue around the head in between gently sucking along the length as she took him deep into her hot mouth, her head bobbing up and down. Daryl didn't take his eyes off her, his breathing more laboured, his moans cutting through the electrically charged atmosphere. She wrapped her hand around his shaft to stroke up and down while still gently popping the head in and out of her mouth, licking and sucking as her lips met her hand. Daryl started to thrust, pushing himself deeper into her mouth. It was getting her more aroused than she ever thought possible, she couldn't help adding her groaning to his.

"Come for me baby" She panted.

She wondered if that was what finally finished him.

A moment later she felt his cock tighten in her mouth and a warm stream of cum fire into the back of her throat. She swallowed until it stopped and Daryl had stilled under her. Once his heavy breathing had subsided she sat up, slowly running her tongue over her lips. She smiled at him as she stood up from the end of the bed. His eyes never leaving hers.

Daryl sat up and grabbed her, pulling her down and rolling her onto the bed so he was above her.

"You're so fucking beautiful Beth"

He lowered his head and pressed his lips into hers with an urgency and passion. She wanted to melt into him, his lips were so damned soft, he caught her bottom lip with his teeth and gave it a slight pull, letting it go and crashing his lips to hers once again, tongue exploring and tangling with hers. They stayed like this for a few moments, she would've been happy to stay this way forever.

He sat up and unbuttoned her jeans, sliding them down to expose the lace of her underwear. He lifted her ass and pulled them under, down her legs, over her feet and onto the floor. She wanted him so badly it hurt, she was so wet for him. The deep throbbing from her core was an ache only he could take away. He stood over her with a look she hadn't seen before. She didn't quite know what it was, but it was one she liked. He dropped to his knees, head level with her lace panties.

"Ma turn" he drawled, eyes boring into hers, slight smirk crossing his lips.

He hooked his thumbs into the sides of her panties and pulled them over her legs and dropped them, where they nestled with the other discarded clothing on the floor. She was naked now, and she could see that Daryl was already becoming erect again. Any doubts she may have had about how he felt about her were pushed far from her mind. While still watching him, he parted her legs and trailed hot kisses from her knees to the wet opening between her legs. She gasped, arching her back as he slipped his tongue inside her. It felt so fucking good, he swirled his tongue around, adding to the wetness already there. She entwined her fingers with his hair and pulled his head closer to her heat, moaning and writhing under his expert tongue. He sucked and flicked her most sensitive place and she thought she would pass out from the pleasure. Just as she thought she couldn't take any more he pushed two fingers inside her, slowly moving in and out while still licking her clit. He moved his fingers faster, going deeper, curling them to reach her special place.

"Oh God, I'm gonna come"

Beth couldn't take anymore, the throbbing had crept over her, turning to an urgent need to let go, she came, calling his name, contracting around his fingers, back arched and panting. Once the feeling of sweet release had passed she looked at Daryl who was sat running his tongue over his fingers in an attempt to clean them up. He smiled that wicked smile. She grabbed his arm and pulled him on top of her. He had to put his arms out to stop from crushing her. He looked at her flushed, sweaty face and planted a kiss on her closed lips, running his tongue over them in an attempt to gain entry. She complied with his request and sank her tongue deep in his mouth, tasting herself.

"I want ya to fuck me Daryl, I need you inside me" she purred, not able to wait any longer. She sounded desperate.

She could feel he was rock hard again as he pressed against her thigh. She guided him into her wet opening, and hitched her breath as he pushed in slowly, inch by inch. She'd never felt anything like it, the feeling of fullness, completeness, she was panting and moaning, her walls tightening in an attempt to stop him pulling back, she didn't want him leaving her for a second, with every thrust she was closer to her release. Daryl kept up a punishing rhythm, pulling all the way back and then pounding in again. He was fucking her hard. He was kissing, almost biting at her neck, hot hard breath washing over her sweat covered body. She was kneading and clawing at his backside, pulling him deeper, even though she was sure that wasn't really possible. It was a frenzy of pure animalistic rutting. It was a release they had both needed for so long. The room was filled with groaning, panting and indistinguishable moans of pleasure that merged together with the slapping of flesh on flesh.

He pulled out of her, grabbed her by the waist, turning her over onto her front and then pulled her ass towards him, pulling her up onto her hands and knees. She pushed back and felt him fill her once again. He pounded into her while reaching round to rub her clit with his fingers. God he made her feel good. He was more than she deserved. She was so close, he slowed down while still circling her clit as if he knew she was almost there again. He pushed into her, to feel her walls tightening in spasms around his hard cock. He stopped moving, staying inside her, holding her tiny waist with one hand while the fingers on his other ran lightly along her sweat covered back and through the hair stuck to her shoulders. He waited for her breathing to slow and watched, as head down, panting and blaspheming she came for him again.

"Sweet Jesus Christ, I'm coming, Oh God don't stop. Fuck me harder" she was screaming.

After a brief moment she pulled forward, Daryl's cock springing free from her wetness. She turned round to face him and grabbed his head pulling him close, her other hand cupping his face. She leant into him, her chest still rising and falling in line with her racing heartbeat. She kissed him, deep, fast and with passion. She broke away, needing him inside her again.

"I wanna feel ya come inside me" she said, eyes almost begging his.

She was so fucking hot for him, but she was aching for him to find his release too. He grabbed her head with both hands and crushed his mouth into hers, lips and tongues tangling in a frenzied wet heated kiss. He groaned as she pulled away, eyes darting across her face in wonderment.

Beth pushed him down and swung her leg over his waist, straddling his glistening cock. He held it while she slid her tight opening down along his length, gasping as she went. She rode him hard, rocking back and forth to meet his hips that were now bucking against her. She moaned as he pulled her hard nipples, twirling them between his fingers. Daryl groaned, as she fell forward onto him, breasts crushing into his chest. Her hips continued to grind against his, her sensitive swollen clit rubbing against him, taking her closer. He held her around her waist, holding her just high enough over him to thrust into her from below, slowly sliding in and out, teasing her slightly with every movement. Unable to move, his every thrust taking her to her climax. She could feel it building deep within her and hoped Daryl was there too. Her head was swimming, she couldn't breathe, he locked eyes with her and she knew in that moment, whatever happened after, she would never love any man but Daryl Dixon.

"I ain't gonna last any longer" he whimpered, his breath hot on her shoulder. "Come for me Beth" was all he could manage to say before he found his release.

As he tensed, she felt it wash over her, nerve endings too delicate to touch anymore, pleasure firing across the surface of her skin and around her body, she contracted around his throbbing cock, squeezing and releasing as he shot his cum deep inside her. She collapsed onto him, both bodies now rising and falling as their chests heaved, breathless. Daryl found her hands that laid either side of him and interlocked their fingers, holding her tightly. They lay together, hot, sweaty, sticky, breathless, but totally sated, for what seemed like forever. She wanted it to be forever, she knew if she died now she would die happy. She also knew nothing would ever be the same between them again. She'd found Daryl Dixon, he wanted her… and it was better than love.

Thanks for reading, I hope you enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed writing it. Please review if you liked it, go easy on me if you didn't! I'm thinking about re writing this scene from Daryl's POV, depends on the feedback I get. His inner dialogue would change the dynamic of the scene and think it could be interesting.
