A year and a half after the war with Negan ends, CJ and her husband continue to survive and live to build their future, surrounded by friends and the people they love. Conflicts arise and old wounds get opened, and she ends up losing another that she loves.

Years after the great loss, CJ is finally in a place where she feels like things are settled. Good times make up for the bad, and she sees a future ahead of her and her family. Until new enemies make themselves known, and everything changes once again.

"We're gonna get through this... We are, I promise you."

"It just feels like we spend our lives fighting. We win one fight and then the next just seems to knock on the door."

"And we'll win this one too. Remember what you used to tell Carl, what you tell people even now when they need hope. Say it."

"We're the ones who live."

"Goddamn right we are."

"As long as you're in it, Wills, I've got the world already." | *𝐔𝚸𝐃𝚨𝐓𝐄𝐒 𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐘 𝐖𝐄𝐄𝚱* | Willow never thought she'd belong to a group until those two men saved her ass in the alley. After being separated from her brother in the big city, it was up to her to get her daughter to safety- until a sheriff and a pizza delivery guy came along and saved them both. The dead owned the streets of Atlanta, pushing her new group further and further out. As they encounter deadly obstacles and power-hungry survivors, the numbers in her group begin to dwindle, and she finds herself holding on to these people more and more. The struggle to maintain the groups humanity is a constant battle, but as relationships form between these strangers turned family, they're willing to carry each other as they pave the way to a new world. There's no denying that Willow has a strong bond with the younger Dixon brother. It came as a shock to everyone. They are two drastically different people, yet somehow they understand each other the most. From the moment they met at the quarry camp on the outskirts of Atlanta, their friendship was off to a rocky start. They both had shadows from their past that haunted them, but as their relationship progressed, those shadows were diminished as the flame between them grew. | [ Daryl Dixon x OC ] [ Some smutty content ] [ Slow burn ] [ Episode by episode ] [ Seasons 1 - 11 ] [CONTAINS SOME ORIGINAL PLOTS] [ Started 11/25/22 ] [ Finished : ONGOING ] | * I do not own any of the characters or story line besides Willow and her story | Highest Ranks: #1 - TWD #1 - thewalkingdead #1 - daryldixon #1 - maggiegreene #1 - rickgrimes #1 - carlgrimes #1 - normanreedus #1 - daryl #1 - reedus #1 - carolpeletier

If I tell you to leave me, then damn it, you leave and you don't look back." "Daryl," she sighed softly, shaking her head. "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." ------------------------------ *I do not own any characters, scenes, or scripts from The Walking Dead.
