Yooo ty for 100 reads ily 💕

Rons lifeless body fell to the floor as Michonne pulled out her sword.
Milseconds after Ron was stabbed a single bullet escaped his gun.

Bang

No one really payed as much attention to this bullet as they should of and everyone was just so relieved that Ron was dead and the walkers where distracted now tearing away at the Anderson's.

Then I turned to face Carl.

He looked up at me blood dipping from his eye there was a huge gouge going through his head, specially his right eye. I wanted to scream but nothing came out I stood there paralysed wanting to run over and help the boy that brought me here. Help the boy who saved my life.

'Dad ?'

He dropped to the floor presumably dead

Rick started screaming picking up his dying son from the floor yelling for help as Rick ran me and Michonne followed clearing his way of walkers. We had to save Carl. He couldn't die. He wouldn't die.

We carried on running with Carl's life on the line until we eventually got to Denise the only woman in Alexandria that has the skills to save Carl in this deadly position. Rick lay Carl on the table and started pacing around panicking so did Michonne while Denise gathered her equipment ready to take care of the gun wound.

Blood tears and sweat dripped on my face as I tried to tell Michonne it would be okay
'Michonne stop your going to die of stress soon hes going to be okay Carls not gonna die yet not now not for a very long time trust me' I said chocking on my sentaces also not quite believing my own words but luckily she did and sat down stroking Carls hair, I went to find Rick and looked out the window to see the man letting out all his anger by killing the walkers, soon I heard the door click and Michonne went out to join him slicing the dead clean in half.

I took a deep breath and unholstered my gun stepping out of the house to a cold dark night filled with the echos of the once living. I ran over to them and they stopped and looked at me. I nodded and they did as well
'This for Carl you bastards' I screamed shooting relentlessly the others joined me and we fought. Fought for Carl.

I woke up the next morning in a chair leaning over to see a sleeping Carl now bandaged up healing from last night. I looked around the room sleepily lifting my head up and seen Rick and Michonne also asleep they must of carried me here because I dont remember going to bed. I examined Carl looking around the bandage at the dry blood and slowly walked over to the kitchen getting a cloth and a luke warm bucket of water because cold water might of startled him. I dipped the cloth in the water and wringed it out dabbing at the blood on Carls face and wiping away any mud or walker guts on his cheek. He woke up a few seconds after slightly started trying to sit up fast, I placed my hands on his shoulders and gently pushed him back down
'Dont hurt your self you need rest
Still oblivious Carl started asking questions
"Where am I ? who are you? What's going on?"
'Carl Carl Carl calm down its okay dont stress out, last night you where shot in the eye so I can imagine that screwed with your brain a little' he tried to talk but I cut him of
'Remember? We are im a zombie apocalypse ? Ron shot you in the eye ? I'm y/n '

Carls pov:

Memorys started flooding back to me and caused a huge headache, grabbing my head I tried to stop it but that just made my wound pulsate and hurt even more than it already did
Y/n obviously could tell i was distraught and tried to calm me down.
"Shh I know this is very overwhelming just lie down while I clean the blood of your face" she said giving me a warm but weak smile. I gulped and lay down agreeing

I cant believe I got shot. Is this really happening. Am I going to die ?

The cloth got close to my eye and I flinched
"Oh my god I'm so sorry im so sorry "
Y/n kept apologising but I reassured her telling her it was okay. She picked at my bandage and gave me a look asking if it was okay to take it of. I nodded. She took of the bandage and the cold air hit my bullet wound I breathed in and out adjusting to this. Y/n gasped slightly but tried to cover it up by coughing but I knew my eye looked awful. I felt embarrassed.
'Can I see?'
She walked away and returned seconds later with a small hand mirror i looked at my reflection in shock trying to hold back tears. I looked awful, I cant belive this is what I look like now

Y/n pov:

I handed Carl the mirror and he looked in horror at his missing eye I frowned and stared at my feet feeling extremely sorry for Carl It did look bad I know it did but I didnt tell him that
'Carl... its not as bad as it looks I promise, I mean in some ways its kinda cool' I said smiling trying to lighten the mood and in all honesty I wasn't lying
'Makes you look like a warrior, a fierce hot badass'
At this point we were both laughing and making the atmosphere happy. Rick and Michonne woke up at the sound of our laughs. They started smiling not even knowing why we were laughing just purely at the fact we were happy in times like these

"Whats going on you two" Michonne asked standing up stretching her arms
'Oh nothing just-'
"Just y/n telling me I look absolutely stunning and like a hot warrior with a cool battle wound "
Carl cut me of
'Shut up I only said you looked hot and it made u look like a warrior no need to exaggerate it'

At this point everyone in the room was laughing and I was happy. We all where, we stopped laugh and just smiled trying to keep these happy moments for as long as possible because everyone knows they don't last forever.
