Request:Just wanted to ask a fluffy Daryl!! It’s New Year and reader wants to kiss Daryl (who she started dating only some days ago) at midnight. He thinks it’s a silly tradition but she convinces him!! Please and thank you!!
Daryl was not the man who was a big fan of traditions, especially not with the way the world was right now.
He couldn’t care less about any traditions, holidays like Christmas for New Year’s Eve.
In Alexandria Rick wanted to at least have a little Christmas of their own, he invited everyone to his house and they even exchanged small presents, Daryl went along with everything that happened but he knew better than to get too comfortable.
He only went because of you, Because he knew you would be there he wanted to be there as well, and he did not regret that.
He wasn’t sure how you found such a dress, but he was not about to ask questions as you looked like the most beautiful woman he had ever seen in his entire life.
After a couple of short conversations with you, he just knew you were the one for him, and he was also shared that his friends had a certain plan to get the two of you together. But he didn’t care about that he forgot about everything even the walkers outside as soon as you walked in with that beautiful red dress of yours.
He needed some fresh air after dinner so he went out to the porch and there he found you sitting in a chair drinking but you can only assume was wine. Out there on that porch is where everything happened, it’s where he was finally able to confess his feelings to you and the two of you became a couple. Of course, everyone was watching you from the windows and when you pulled him close to kiss him under the mistletoe everyone cheered inside.
And now came New Year’s Eve.
Another year went by in this hell, and Daryl didn’t see the point to celebrate that.
If you weren’t so excited, he wouldn’t even go to the party that the people were throwing around the neighbourhood.
You sold him that you wanted him to kiss you exactly at midnight but he wasn’t really fond of the idea. Although you definitely understood why he was behaving like this, you understood that there was nothing to celebrate about a new year coming but it was something that you always wanted to try and now that you finally had someone, someone you loved, you really wanted to.
Daryl didn’t have a choice, he just didn’t know about it yet.
You ended up not going to the others, you just headed over to Daryl’s so the two of you could have a quiet night. And that you did.
Maybe too quiet.
You were a bit bored but you didn’t tell that to Daryl. He did give you some nice alcohol which certainly helped your courage.
But you were still set on that kiss at midnight.
You were not about to force or trick him, you wouldn’t do that. So, you decided to talk to him and ask him why was he so against a little kiss. Not like during the last couple days you two didn’t kiss.
“I just think it’s stupid.” he said and you tilted your head at his answer.
“Why? Does it have to do with your past? Were you rejected or heartbroken? I don’t care if you were I’m o-“
“No, that’s not it. I’m just not a big fan of traditions like that in a world that is burning.”
“I know that but… if we forget holidays, traditions, what will be left? We won’t have anything just pain and misery.” Daryl never thought about it that way, you were completely right he was at a loss for words.
“I never-“ he didn’t know what to say you got him there.
You smiled at him, it was such a sweet smile. That smile always made his worries disappear, that’s why he fell in love with you in the first place, you had something that no one else had.
Then Daryl heard the others counting back.

Happy New Year!
The sweetest kiss, exactly at midnight.
Maybe this year will be better, maybe things will finally change for the better. And with you by his side, Daryl was sure they will.
