"So… How did your talk with Zach go?" Maggie asked Beth with a smirk the moment she arrived home that evening.
"Disastrous." Beth said glumly.
"Tell me all about it." Maggie said over attentively, closing the door to their room behind her.
"Well… I went to talk to Zach during lunch hour, and I was damn near having him back but I saw Mister Pretty Hair and everything went to shit after that."
"What? Mister Pretty Hair was in your school? Is he a teacher there or something?"
"Of course not, Maggie. Don't be silly. We ran into them as they were making their way to Mr. Gargulio's office—"
"Gargulio? The PE instructor? What's he—"
"Will you let me finish?" Beth snapped.
"Oh, yeah, sure. Please continue, darlin'."
"Well… Right. I was talking to Zach when I saw them… I was so shocked to see him there so I yelled Mister Pretty Hair before I can stop myself. He turned and looked at me, and I guess Zach recognized him too because he punched him. And the man who was walking with Mister Pretty Hair beat the crap out of Zach. We got into detention, the teacher told me who they were and reprimanded me for making out with the maintenance guy."
At this point, Maggie's eyes were as big as her gaping mouth. This is big news, even for someone like Beth.
"Oh my gosh… How's Zach? How's Mister Pretty Hair? And please don't tell me you still don't have a name till now."
"Daryl. Daryl Dixon. He's Mister Pretty Hair." Beth said, her shoulders slumped.
"Waiiiiit. Daryl Dixon? Tall, muscular, long brown hair? Owns the mechanic shop beside that bar called Sin Bin a couple of blocks from the school? That Daryl Dixon?" Maggie's getting more and more excited now.
"Whoooa… You know him!?" Beth showed equal surprise.
"Well, yeah! A girl needs to be DEAD to ignore Daryl Dixon. He was a senior when I was a freshman in highschool. Shy guy, but very popular among the girls. Too bad he liked that Carol Peletier, who never noticed him."
Beth nearly fell off her bed when she heard her sister say Peletier's name. No wonder she was foaming at the mouth when she knew about the Mister Pretty Hair incident.
