rest in peace

[AU if AJ did kill Clem/let her turn]

AJ's POV

Life without you just seem so meaningless. Days turn to night and you're not here to help me learn. Louis and Violet keep visiting your grave, placing flowers over it. I couldn't go see you. Not like this. It wasn't supposed to happen to you.

Wipping away the tears from my eyes, I hold Disco Broccoli close to my heart, hoping this all was a dream. A bad dream actually. That the monsters didn't take you away. A knock at the door, creaking open ever so slowly. I pulled out Clem's knife at the ready but retreated it as I saw it was only Louis and Vi.

"How you doing lil man?," Vi asked with sadness in her voice. I didn't even bother to respond. Nothing could make me feel anything anymore.

"AJ...," Louis sighed. "Come with us." I slowly pulled myself out of bed for the first time all day. My eyes burned red as I've been crying all day and night. Louis and Vi hugged me but I pushed them away. It was useless for them to try to help me.

"I know something that might help," Violet whispered to Louis. Rage and sadness built upside me burst like a water balloon.

"THERE'S NOTHING EITHER OF YOU CAN DO! CLEM IS DEAD! AND it's my fault....." Tears began to fall down my face and before they could respond, I took off running into the woods.

Narrator's POV

As AJ ran away from the place called home, Violet and Louis set out after him. To make ammends and help him heal. The woods were full of walkers but that was of little concern to the duo. One by one, the dead were put to rest permantly this time.

"You see AJ," Violet asked as she took a deep breath. Louis shooked his head "no". "Fuck. We shouldn't of had..." Violet couldn't finish her sentence before she found herself sitting underneath a tree, crying. Louis sat besides her, comforting his best friend.

"We will find him. I promise." The cracking of tree branches alerted Louis, who was quick to ready his bow. "WHO'S THERE?"he yelled. Out from a thick shrub stood AJ, holding Clem's hat.

"AJ," they both screamed joyously as they ran to hug him.

"I'm sorry for running....I just..."

"It's okay, no bites?" Louis checked AJ. His eyes grew dark and his face frowned.

"Louis?," Violet asks concerned. Louis points to AJ's neck, revealing a walker bite. AJ turns away.

"Here," AJ places the hat in Violet's hands. "I love you guys." He sighs. "Don't let me turn please. I don't wanna be a monster." AJ hands Louis his gun with one remaining bullet left. Tear filled eyes, sorrow filled hearts, and the echoing noise of gunpowder igniting, followed by the thudding of a body onto the ground.

Back at Erickson, a new gravestone was made. It read "Alvin Junior".
