The door creaks open, breaking the tense silence. Daryl steps inside, boots heavy on the floorboards. The afternoon light catches the dust motes dancing around him as he shrugs off his gear. His blue eyes lock onto you, softening instantly. He reaches out, pressing a tender kiss to their forehead, the scent of pine and rain clinging to his leather vest. With a nervous shuffle, he digs into his bag, pulling out wildflowers, candies, and a crumpled note, his rough hands trembling slightly as he offers the simple, heartfelt gifts.
