(Your pov)
"Ron, no. Please don't. We can make it out. Just put the gun down." You say as you see Ron pointing a gun in Carl and Rick's direction. He pulled the hammer back to cock the gun.
"Ron!" You yell as you see Michonne's katana go straight through him and hear the gun go off.
"Dad?" You hear Carl say before you turned around to see his right eye was replaced by a hole filled with blood.
"Carl? No." You say in disbelief as Carl falls on the ground. Your eyes are filled with tears and you start sobbing.
"Come on!" Michonne yells as Rick picks Carl up and runs. Michonne clears out all of the walkers that are in front of Rick and you cleared all that were behind him.
You got to the infirmary and Rick sat Carl down on the table. Rick soon stormed out of the infirmary and into the streets.
"Go help him. He won't be able to take them all by him self, no matter how angry he is." You say and see Michonne kiss Carl's forehead and leave to go after Rick. Heath, Spencer, and Aaron follow close behind after Denice tells them it's okay.
"Help me put him in the back room, (y/n)." She says to you as she starts to move the bed. "Okay." You say softly almost to a whisper.
"It'll be alright."
"But he won't be!"
"Yes, he will. He will live."
"He lost his fucking eye, Denice! Even if he is alive he won't have depth perception and 70% of his vision!"
She stays quiet and then keeps moving the bed. You help transfer Carl to the other bed in the back room.
"I'm sorry I went off on you like that."
"It's okay. I understand that you're hurting."
"Yeah. It's just that... My biggest fear is losing him. He's my everything, Denice." You say as tears start to shed.
She pulls you in for a hug and you cry into her shoulder. "Shhh... It's okay... Everything will be alright..." She cooed as you slowly calmed down.
"Thanks."
"You're welcome."
She smiles and walks out the door and closes it leaving you alone with an unconscious Carl. You hold his hand and peck his lips. "I'm so sorry this happened to you." You say and sit down on the bed.
*two days later*
You were still sitting on the bed, next to Carl. You would come everyday and stay for as long as you could until someone made you go home. You wouldn't eat, drink, or sleep. Nothing.
You couldn't live without him. He had to wake up soon before you died of dehydration, starvation, or sleep deprivation.
You were just sitting there talking to the still unconscious Carl. "I feel awful that this happened. I tried, Carl. I really did. I can't live without you. I can't function properly without you. You're my everything... I love you, Carl Grimes. I really do." You whisper to him and shed one simple tear.
"Knock knock." Maggie says from the door.
"Hey."
"How are you doing?"
"Well,... Honestly, I'm doing awful."
"Why don't you come and eat?"
"I'm not hungry."
"You lie. You haven't eaten since it happened. Please eat."
"No. I'm not hungry."
"Honey, you need to eat something. Drink something. You need sleep too. You are human, ya know."
"I know, Mags. I know.... You know how it feels to be in love."
"Yeah?"
"Well... Would you eat, drink, or sleep if it were Glenn in Carl's place?"
"Probably not."
"Exactly."
She comes over to you and hugs you. "Come on. You need to get out of this room." She says softly.
You nod and start to walk out the door. You turn around for one last glimpse at Carl and see that his eye is fluttering open.
"Carl?" You say as you run back over to him and look at his beautiful blue eye open.
"(Y/n)?" He says in a scruffy voice. You start to cry and hug him tightly. "I love you." You say and then cover your mouth. "I just said that." You say through your hand.
"I love you too." He says with a smile. "Good." You say and lean in to kiss him.
When your lips meet its like magic. Your face was flushed with red. He put his hand on the small of your back and your hand went to cup his face.
"Woohoo!" Maggie says from the doorway. You pull away and playfully glare at her.
You see Rick, Glenn, Daryl, and Michone standing there as well. You smile at their smirks and turn around and kiss Carl on the lips. But this time it was slow and soft.
"Adorable." Michonne says and you pull away again. You smile even wider when Glenn says, "When we asked you to eat, (y/n), we didn't mean to eat Carl's face off."
"Glenn, you ruined the moment." You say and laugh.
