-Abrasive. Yes, that description fit him perfectly. The guy smelled like trouble, and she knew he would get even more abrasive the longer she talked to him. Too bad she didn't care. -A pretty stranger that talked to him, knew his name and his place of work? In Daryl's book, that just couldn't be good news. AU - Daryl Dixon/OC, M Rating for language and sexual situations. Yes smut!

Daryl was nobody, he was merely Merle's shadow. After almost getting killed, he knows things have to change, but he doesn't know if he has the ability to do it. Sam was just getting her life back on track, she didn't need a man in her life right now, but sometimes life has a funny way of showing you what you actually do need after all. Daryl/OC, AU, M for language, eventual smut
