AN: Beth Greene and Daryl Dixon are dorks, and together they would've been the most beautiful dorks on television but stupid TWD happened. Forever Bitter!
Ever since she met him Beth could not stop thinking about him, which was a bad thing. Beth is a business owner who has to focus on the finances of her store thoroughly since she was never good at math. She is a teacher who has to concentrate on the progress of her students as they learn to play and read musical notes. She is a person that has a million of other things to focus on and whose undivided attention had to be in her business and students, but, no, Daryl Dixon claimed and had full ownership of her attention and thoughts.
She had met him exactly two months ago at Glenn's finale party and ever since then she could not stop thinking about the man. And who could blame her, Daryl Dixon was extraordinary even if he doubted. She was still getting to know him of course. However from what she learned, from the months after their introduction, was that Daryl was a man she was extremely happy she met. Daryl brought something in her life she didn't know she was missing. He brought her things she didn't know she was lacking. He bought her a sense of comfort, and security
Beth knew that before she met him that she was happy. She had a thriving business and she was doing what she loved, which she knew not everyone got to do. She had a routine that made her days easier to manage. She had her family and friends that proudly supported her in her endeavors. And she had a beautiful dog who she absolutely adored. So when she met Daryl, and she got to converse with him, laugh him, and just got to be herself with; she was absolutely stunned when she realized that she didn't have everything. No, after meeting Daryl she realized she was missing a companion; someone who she could just be with. Yeah, she had her family with whom she could be too, but with them she felt like she could only be Bethy, the baby of the family who they needed to protect. And, well, with her friends she could be too, but with them she felt like she had to be the fun girl she was in college.
With Daryl, though, she felt like she could be anybody. With him she could be that fun girl her friends met in college. She could also be that girl that sometimes needed protection, even though Daryl told her that he knew she could take care of herself. Since Daryl was a business owner too, she could also be business owner with him. He, better than anyone, understood the frustrations, stress, and worries that plagued all business owners, and with him she was able to easily vent all of her burdens. With Daryl in her life she was able to be adventurous, comfortable, curious, energetic, lazy, and a dork. Believe it or not Beth Greene was a secret dork. She was a dork for music, but everybody knew that. She was the dorkiest about music. However, she was also dorky for poetry, office supplies, coffee (everyone knew she was dorky for coffee though), fiction novels, most recently T.V shows (that was thanks to Glenn), and, cheesy pick-up lines.
She was dorky for all those things and more, and with Daryl she felt and knew that she didn't have to hide her dorky because Daryl didn't judge anyone and, also, because he was a dork himself she learned. Yeah, Daryl Dixon was dork about plenty of things, and it excited her that he and she shared an odd interest that never failed to bring a smile to their faces. She always giggled at the fact. It made her extremely happy when she learned that he, too, like to say pick-up lines like her. She immediately felt drawn to him but also she felt a little insecure. She could not help the thought that maybe he was a secret player, who would go to bars and use those lines on girls, creep into her mind; even though from her first impression of him, when they first met, she knew that her inference was wrong. Daryl Dixon was not a player, and when he explained that he mostly said the lines to his cat when he was bored, she couldn't help the smile that she got after she told him that she mostly used her lines on her pet too.
And ever since that conversation, on the night they met at Glenn's party, after he offered to drive her home, they couldn't stop saying cheesy pick-up lines to each other. Be it the super cheesy ones or the ones that plainly made her swoon, Beth was extremely glad that she met a man that could easily joke with her and make her laugh. That was all she ever wanted when she thought of her "perfect guy"; she just wanted a guy that could make her laugh or just smile even in the darkest of times. And as Beth closed her shop after a long day of running her store, and teaching music to kids, she couldn't help but answer her phone to Daryl's daily incoming, after work, call with the following line.
"You must be tired because you've been running through my mind all day."
"Oh, I'm exhausted," Daryl replied, and she could hear the smile in his voice. "You know, it's funny, I was about to tell you that, you spend so much time in my head, I should start charging you rent."
Swooning over his words, and about the fact that he had her in his mind all day like she did with him, Beth couldn't help but tease back to him by saying, "Really?! And how much is rent?"
"I am going to say that rent is about a thousand dollars, because my head has other tenants whose existence I'm ignoring because of you." Daryl then playfully replied, and Beth, who wished that the easy banter they had with each other never ever stop, with an indignant tone replied, "A THOUSAND DOLLARS! That is ridiculous! Please vacate me from your mind immediately. I cannot afford that, Dixon."
"Can't do that, Greene. You're stuck here." Daryl then replied, basically making her a million times happier that he was in her life, because seriously, what woman would want their significant other to stop saying things like that to her.
"Okay! Just don't die on me because of exhaustion then." Beth mockingly responded before she went on to tell him about her day even though he basically already knew everything that happened during it.
If you, guys have pick-up lines you might want me to try and write with these too then feel free to send them to me. Also, I've never written smut, because I'm a good noodle, but I have seen smutty pick-up lines that I can totally see Beth and Daryl saying to each other so I might give it a try, and if you guys have some as well send them to me; they might inspire me.
