Summary
A steadily increasing panic attack might not be included in any of the Thanksgiving dinner dishes, but it’s always been part of the deal whenever Daryl finds himself alone with Beth. Ain’t exactly the season for Christmas miracles just yet, though, so what else did he expect?

Summary
Beth never expected that any part of her Valentine’s Day celebrations would involve browsing a sex shop, and Daryl never gave it enough thought to realize what a goddamn nightmare it would be if he somehow ended up in one.
Life’s kinda funny like that.
