Just a quick update sorry for all the errors I typed it on my phone while at work.
Carol walked into Dale's and saw Daryl sitting at a table close to the window. Carol took a deep breath and started walking toward him when a waitress stopped her.
"Where would you like to sit dear? I'm Irma by the way."
Thanks Irma, I'm getting that man right over there." Carol pointed to Daryl.
Irma lead her over to the table and took their order. The started talking about Carol going to school and what had led Daryl to be a truck driver. He also did all the repairs on the rigs he and his brother drove. They feel into a easy conversation. It was a first for Carol, Ed had always taken over any conversation she was trying to have. Once they finished eating Daryl walked her out to her car.
"Had a nice time, would you like to do this again?" He asked.
"Sure, I'm just not sure when. How about dinner one night at my place. I make a mean chicken fried steak." Carol asked.
TCarol was so giddy, she had never had these kind of butterflies just making dinner plans.
"Ya sure your gonna make it home ok" Daryl asked.
"Oh yes I live just a few minutes away.
Daryl leaned in and gave Carol a quick peck on the cheek, when he leaned back she was all flustered.
"Ok great, see you soon" she rambled as she jumped in her car. Daryl just shook his head and laughed as he walked to his car.
He drove around town twice before deciding to go to the shop and see if there was anything that needed to be done there. When he walked in Merle asked what he was doing, he should be home sleeping.."Ain't tired" he said making his way over to the engine he was overhauling for his car.
Carol had gone straight in and tried to lay down, but she could not fall asleep. After tossing and turning for an hour she got up and ran a hot bath and and grabbed a book she had been trying to read at work. The next few days at work seemed to fly by, she only saw Daryl's name on the log sheet. She was hoping to see him so she could give him her number. After he kissed her she had been so flustered that she forgot to give it to him.
Across town Daryl was freaking out since he had not seen Carol at Tyson all week and kicking himself in the ass for not giving her his number. He was throwing shit back and forth pissing Merle off.
"If you don't fucking quit and drive your ass across town and see if she is there than I'm gonna hop in my truck and go get me some of that sweet lil mouse myself" Merle yelled. Daryl ran out of there so fast Merle could swear he was not actually touching the ground.
Daryl pulled up to the front gate and pulled into visitor parking. Just his luck that skanky bitch Lori was up there.. " Oh hey Daryl you finally wanting to go to lunch baby?" He felt like throwing up but pushed it down and asked if Carol was there. "Ya she's in the back. What do you need her for, I could show you things you have never seen before.". Daryl made his way his car as quick as he could.
