"I need you to listen to me. When we're out there together, if I say run, run. If I tell you to leave me, then damn it, you leave and you don't look back."

"No, I mean it," he argued, encircling her wrist and jostling her a bit, begging her to listen. "I can't lose you. Not like that, not ever."
His words were like lava bubbling in his throat, everything he had fought so hard to conceal was quickly rising to the surface. Fuck it. Any fear of rejection was overpowered by his need to make her understand. It wouldn't change how he felt, or the fact that he'd take on a thousand walkers if it kept her safe for even one more millisecond.
"I need you around, Ace."
"Always."

Sequel to 'Forever Alone // Carl Grimes.'

Don't loose faith in her, what you find may not be what you seek."

Carl's world crashed down around him when he picked up the letter covered in black ink and broken promises. He is left with nothing but the shattered memories of the girl that left him because she believed that it would save them both in the end.
With Lauren gone, life seemed a little more dull. Nothing brought him excitement because she wasn't there to enjoy it with him. Carl is left chasing after the breadcrumbs that Lauren left behind on her trail to find herself. After all, he would gamble with his life if she held the cards.
One long journey and one million possible problems.
But after everything he has gone through, will he find what he was looking for?
