Summary
With a sigh, she lowered her bow, thinking it must’ve just been her imagination. Stephen King books usually did that to her, even back before the collapse. Somehow, even being an avid horror reader, the paranoia still got to her.
“Jumpy much?” Daryl asked just as she picked up her book again. She flinched so hard, the book went flying from her hands as he appeared from behind a tree trunk, the ghost of a smirk on his lips.
“Fuck off, Dixon.” she gasped, “You about gave me a heart attack!”
“Good.” he taunted as he walked past. “Keep ya on your toes.”
She scoffed as he disappeared into his tent, though for some God awful reason she was smiling. And he had been, too. She wasn’t sure she’d ever seen him smile before, but it suited him--even if he was being an asshole.

Summary
Daryl groaned as he sat up, scrubbing a hand over his cheek. His hair was flat on one side and sticking up wildly in the other, but she knew he wouldn’t care even if she told him.
“Good mornin’," she said quietly, still wrapped up in her blanket. He glanced at her and cracked a sleepy smile, similar to her own. “...What?”
His smile grew slightly and he gestured to her hair.
“You’re one to talk," she muttered, glancing pointedly up at his rat’s nest. He ran a lazy hand through his hair, which helped but didn’t quite get rid of his bedhead.
She reached a hand out of her blanket to fix it for him. He froze, but after a moment, lowered his head forward to let her do as she pleased. His eyes fluttered closed as she ran her fingers through his fringe and smoothed it down.
He drew the line when she pulled a hair tie off her wrist, jumping up before she could even try to put it in his hair. “Oh, come on,” Sadie whined, but didn’t move to follow him. She was too comfortable.
“In your dreams, sweetness," Daryl scoffed. Sadie’s heart soared and her smile widened at the pet name.
“Bet you’d look cute with a pigtail," she teased, chuckling as he kicked the back of her chair.
