Bring Me To Life -A Rick Grimes Love Story-

Prologue

"With you...I-It made sense...It always made sense. I don't know how...I don't know why. But it did, and somehow that was everything. I didn't even know I could possess that much love for another human being, other than my children, until I met you. You changed me. You've kept me sane. You help me to keep fighting. There's been times, where i've wanted to give up...Where I wanted the walkers to just eat me alive, kill me, devour me into nothing so I wouldn't have to go through anymore pain. But then i'd lose you. And I don't ever want to lose you. You make me happy, you do things to me my wife never could've even dreamed of doing...And even now, I know you should've been the one I married...If only I had known you then...Maybe, we could've been something even greater than we are now...But, I have you now, and I intend on keeping it that way. I love you. I love you. I love you." 

His voice began to crack, and it game out shaky as he said his next couple words. "But, now...I have no idea where you are, if you're alive...If you're safe...I don't...I-I don't know anything and it's killing me. Carl, he's the only thing keeping me going right now...I don't-...I can't do this without you, please...Send me a sign, anything...Tell me anything that lets me know that you're alive! That you're okay! Anything, my God, anything! I know you just went through horrible things...Terrible, traumatizing, things that would make anyone want to give up. But, I need you. Carl...H-He needs you. We can't do this without you, I won't survive...I can't survive. Please, be okay...Please, come back. You keep this group strong, you keep me strong. P-Please."  By this point, his voice could barely be heard above a whisper. He was pouring his heart out, and for what? A response that probably would never happen. Because the woman he loved with all his heart could be dead right now? Could've been ripped from this world, turned into a walker? The thought of anything happening to her, made his stomach twist up...He wouldn't be able to live with himself. 

"P-Please." He croaked out again, before the tears welling up in his eyes, found their way down his cheeks. A heart wrenching sob escaped his dry lips, and his dirty hands went up to cover his face. He was tired, he has fought for too long and too hard...He wanted to give up, but he had Carl...He had his son, his son needed him...But, if she was gone...He didn't know how he'd survive. More sobs left his mouth, and he had no idea how or when he would be able to stop crying. After all this time, he had finally found the love of his life...

And now? Now she may be gone forever.

I made a Glenn story, and I still see that story going somewhere, but then I came up with this idea...And oh man...I knew I had to get it out there before it slipped my mind!! I have so many great things planned for my story and I can't wait to share them all with you! So until then...

Happy Reading!!
