The fact that he had asked her on a date was surprising, the fact that she had accepted was even more so.
He heard her giggle softly, snapping him from his trance.
"Are you going to stare at me all evening, Daryl?" She asked.
Daryl blushed in embarrassment. "Sorry," he mumbled.
"Don't be," she said as she placed her hand over his.
Daryl's hand twitched beneath hers at the unfamiliar touch. He slowly retracted his hand a little before taking her hand in his own, rubbing his thumb against the back of her fingers.

She smiled and looked down at their hands.
"You're so hot.." Daryl blurted out. "Beautiful, I meant beautiful!"
She laughed a genuine laugh. "Hot...beautiful? I'm flattered," she grinned.
Daryl sighed and looked away. "I'm sorry, this is a first for me."
"It's alright Daryl, first dates are always a little awkward."
Daryl shifted awkwardly. "This is my first date...with anyone."
She grinned. "Really? Well I'm glad I could be your first, first date."
"I'm glad you could be too."
