pt.2!

The morning light started to shine brightly above your home. Alexandria. You haven’t been in a home like this in years. You laid on your bed thinking back to whatever past you could hold onto. At first it sucked, your parents left you with Hershel’s family, luckily for you though Maggie loved to take care of you. Now she’s practically your mother— REAL mother.

The days with Maggie around kept you happy. You could never forget the way they loved you when others didn’t. You continued to lay there deep in thoughts until your door swung open, realistically it should’ve been Maggie or Glenn walking through since you lived with them, but you sat up locking eyes with a freckled face blue eye’d boy. The sheriff’s oldest son Carl Grimes.

You could’ve sworn that your heart stopped right then and there.

On the side of the boy was his baby sister Judith, most adorable person in the world. At least to you and Carl. Her tiny hand raised up as she waved causing Carl to smile.

“you forget what we’re doing today?”

Those words pulled you out your thoughts almost immediately. You let out a small nervous laugh and quickly got out of bed. It’s not that you forgot but your brain was still waking up, just like you were.

“No no i remember..I was about to get up.” You spoke softly as you turned and pulled your covers back up, making your bed. Carl watched as you moved, he wasn’t in any rush just..watching.

“Take your time, although Maggie did make foo-” The poor boy didn’t even get to finish his sentence before you ran into your bathroom to instantly brush your teeth. Though food supplies were limited, Maggie’s cooking was incredible— even with her semi-lack of experience.

Carl let out a small laugh which also made Judith start even if she wasn’t fully aware of what was funny. After about 10 minutes of getting ready in the bathroom, you grabbed Carl’s free hand and practically pulled him down the stairs. Once you two reached the bottom, you found yourself standing right in front of an overly happy Glenn. He’s always been a happy person since you met him but he was TOO happy this time. You didn’t want to know why.

You gave Glenn a small look then made your way towards the dining room to see the plates already set. It wasn’t much but it still looked good and smelled delicious. You sat down next to your somewhat sister Enid. Enid waited for Glenn to look away before she leaned in “Does Glenn seem overly happy??”

In return, You made an awkward face, telling the girl that you saw but didn’t want to mention it. Maggie soon walked in with an extra plate with a little more food that she placed down at the seat in front of yours.

“Who’s that one for?” Enid spoke with genuine curiosity which made Maggie smile.

“For Carl and Judith of course, I invited them over since two people have been talking a lot..” Maggie eyed you. “I think with all the time he spends over here he should be welcomed to eat.”

Behind you, Carl had his head down so the only thing showing was his hat. It was almost obvious that he was brushing, anyone could tell expect for your oblivious ass. Carl made his way towards the seat with the food and sat down with a smile towards the two adults in the room, too nervous to look at you.

Breakfast was filled with laugher and awkward moments towards you and Carl, It was like everyone knew you two liked each other expect for y’all. It was just a dream for the two of you.

Once the two of you finished eating, Y’all both locked eyes. Carl raised his eyebrows trying to see if you were ready to go or wait a few hours. There was a small moment of no movement between the two of you, both thinking. That was until you finally nodded and started getting up, the boy instantly doing the same.

The talking slowly stopped as Glenn, Maggie, and Enid looked up at the two of you guys— three if we include Judith. “Me and Carl are going out today..Rick gave us permission.”

You lied straight through your teeth but because Carl was here and he’s rick’s son..they all mostly seemed to believe it. They wished you guys your goodbyes and safety before y’all left. It didn’t take long to convince Eugene to open the gates, mostly because you used the same excuse. Unfortunately the boy talked for 5 minutes until you and Carl acted as if y’all were in a hurry.

___________________

Finally after a long time it was just you and him. For a moment it was silent, you thought about confessing and how it could go. Just you two. Until you heard a small “kuu” noise. Judith. You were so lost in thought about what could happen you forgot that the sweet baby was there as-well. When you looked to your side it seemed like Carl was also pulled out of his thoughts by Judith.

The freckled boy pulled off his hat and set it on the younger girls head as if she was the ‘sheriff’ now. Both of you gave your undivided attention to Judith for a while before finally stopping somewhere. You guys found a random bench and decided to stop just to relax. No walkers seemed to be nearby nor parents or friends that constantly wanted to question you guys.

“Okay, Since we are sitting..Do youu have any crushes?” You spoke with pure excitement, an attempt to hide your nerves.

Carl however wasn’t able to hide anything now since Judith was now playing around with the hat. Careful but it was still in her hands. His cheeks started to turn into a rosy color as he looked down.

“Maybe..Actually yeah.” Before you could question who it was, Carl quickly spoke first. “But I won’t be saying who! You’ll have to wait.”

Him saying that made you frown but it was understandable. If he were the one to ask you that then you would’ve said the exact same thing..Probably. For the next 30 minutes, you two were talking about how life is at alexandria and how new it felt. You both were comfortable but didn’t want to lose your skill with the outside world. At some point during your chattering, You realized how close the two of you had gotten. Your hands were practically touching. At the same time, Carl also seemed to notice. You both stopped talking almost immediately and just stared at each other. You don’t remember leaning but somehow your faces both got really close, almost touching.

You could feel his breath on yours, both of your eyes were closing.

Then you heard it. A gunshot.

The two of you pulled back and grabbed your guns almost instantly. You were terrified but ready. You leaned down to pick up Judith while Carl stood in front of you two just in case. There were no other noises for a few seconds, but that doesn’t mean nothing would happen.

You stood there completely frozen in fear while holding onto a scared baby. Carl looked back at you then back in front.

“We need to heard back.”

“Carl-”

“Now!” His voice was shaky but he was serious. You had the fear of leading someone bad to your home but your people would be prepared— hopefully. You gave carl a small nod then you both started running back towards Alexandria. You covered Judith with both your hands, if anything or anyone needed to be shot you had to trust Carl to handle it.

It felt as if someone could read your mind. In the corner of your eyes you saw a man step out of the trees with a gun aiming directly at JUDITH who still laid in your arms practically crying. You moved before your mind could comprehend anything, You stopped running and turned to the side right as the bullet was shot.

Everything started going foggy, one second you were looking at a crying judith. The next you were on the ground with her on your side, and a very angry Carl shooting the man with no hesitation. Right before you blacked out, you saw Carl turn to look at you..Was he crying..? You tried to call out for him but the darkness consumed you in seconds. You blacked out. However, you weren’t dead.

“Y/N!? Y/N!”

Out of all the deaths in the Walking Dead game, who would be the top three you think should've lived/you would revive them and why?

For me, my top three are Ben Paul, Nick and Luke

I've explained before why I think Ben should've lived, but I'll summarise it real quick, I think future characters would've done much better with Ben's perspective/experiences (like Marlon or Minerva) and I think he deserved to have a better redemption arc than what he got.

Luke and Nick, really, because I think both of their deaths were just a bit out of nowhere and kinda just "wait, that's it for them?" Mainly Nick's imo, you just kinda find him, and that's it for the poor guy, and honestly as much as people say he's the Ben of S2, at least Ben had a way better death than him.

As for Luke, his death wasn't exactly "out of nowhere" but it was a bit unnecessary to me, the choice you make in his death scene are basically either Luke dies or both Luke and Bonnie die (best option tbh).

So it's "cool character dies" or "cool character STILL dies but less cool characters dies with them"

What a bunch of bullshit 😒

it is so rare for me to sit down and actually make good art but when I do I think it’s pretty peak

hii !! yes ofc!! so sorry for the late response! 🩷🩷 for some of these i made a couple of different ones to choose from, i hope u like them :D
