First chapter! I chose to write about the most beautiful character in The Walking Dead Game series; Ben! I personally love him although everyone else hates him... But anyways! Here's the first chapter, enjoy~~
______________________________________________________

Screams... Blood curdling screams where all to be heard. And those screams came from your family. You didn't know what was going on, all you knew was that it was horrible.

-(y/n)! Don't forget we will always love you!

Those were the last ever words your mother shouted to you before she and the rest of your family and friends were devoured by those monsters.

___________________________

You have no idea how long it been since then but it sure as hell has been long.  Although you were used to being alone, you still found a group to fight beside in this horrible times.

The leader, you think, was Lee Everett. He was one you could trust, along with the older man Kenny and the young girl Clementine. Everything was fine except for... All that was happening a round you constantly.

You all were a large group and every one was respected- almost. There was a few people that couldn't be trusted that much, such as Larry, and his daughter Lily although she still seemed cool. And then. There were Ben. He was very young, about your age, maybe a few years older. No one liked him at all, hence he made a lot of mistakes.

Except, there were one person that really liked him; you. To you he was sweet. Misunderstood by the others. Mistakes are what make you human after all. You've watched him take the blame for many things. Naming only one is impossible. Poor Ben, he was just a kid and didn't deserve all the shit he had to take.

At least that was what you thought. It was burning daylight by now at the motor inn. You were sitting with Clementine, Ben and Kenny's son, Duck, drawing on the ground in front of you with colorful chalk crayons. Nothing was out of the ordinary, it was quite peaceful.

As Clementine and Duck were too busy guessing each other's drawings, Ben turned his head, glancing at you. He cleared his throat.

-S-so, (y/n)... Uhm, h-hi...

He stuttered out, not really coming up with something to ask. You let out a little chuckle as you turned your head to look at him.

-Hello, Ben!

He gulped.

-Uh... So, how's your day?

You sighed. Even though you were in the middle of a zombie apocalypse you felt quite good.

-Considering everything thats happening around us, not too good. But I'm alright!

-O-oh, y-yeah...

He really seemed nervous talking to you- stuttering alot, sweating a bit and... blushing? You thought it was cute though.

-Are you okay?

-Yeah, I just-

-BEN!

Ah, here comes trouble. That was Kenny's voice. He was one of the many who hated Ben for who he was. So unfair. Anyway, so Kenny walked up and as usual, started yelling at Ben.

-Lee told me someone has been going around stealing supplies from us. Was it you?!

Blaming Ben for nothing again...

-w-what? No! It wasn't me, I swear man!

-I sure hope that's true for your own sake. If you put Duck or Clementine or anyone else in danger, you're dead.

He walked off. But all that got you thinking...

~days later~

It had been days since the incident with Kenny at the motor in, and you are now on a train. Everything was fine but... Ben had been acting a bit strange since Duck got bitten. You thought anyone would with all that's happening but to be honest, it worried you.

You were seated inside the the train, looking out across the trees that swooshed by as the train drove. Clementine sat next to you, looking at the same scenery.

Suddenly, you heard yelling.

-YOU SON OF BITCH!

Lee? Who was he yelling at?

-ILL THROW YOU OFF THE GOD DAMN TRAIN!

-What's going on?

Clementine piped up. You looked at her for a quick moment and then you got up.

-Don't worry Clementine. I'll go check it out.

And with that you were off. Opening the door to the part were the cart you were on and the other parted, you saw Lee on the other side, pushing Ben up to the railing.

-I CAN THROW YOU OFF RIGHT NOW AND LEAVE YOU TO THE WALKERS!

-LEE!

He stopped, hearing your voice.

-What the heck is going on here?!

You jumped over to were Lee and Ben were and got between them.

-Explain what's happening!

Lee looked at Ben and then back at you, a mad expression on his face.

-Ben is the son of a bitch who made the deal with the bandits at the motor inn! Hes the reason duck is bitten!

You froze, glancing back at Ben who was looking down on the floor. Guilt evident in his eyes.

-Ben? I-I'm sure it was just a mistake! He was just trying to protect us.

Lee looked even madder now.

-You're protecting this asshole?! Look at all he has done! He's putting Clementine and everyone else in danger! I'm not forgiving him.

And that's when you snapped and said it. The thing you've thought for so long but haven't said.

-What if it wasn't him?

Lee stopped. And Ben looked up.

-What do you mean?

You looked up at him. No emotion on your face, your glare piercing his soul.

-Ben do make mistakes. But I'm sure that if Clementine did the same mistakes as he did you'd forgive her without a second thought. Ben is in this too. He has lost just as many people as everyone else, and he's a kid just like me and Clementine and Duck! It's not fair that he is to blame for everything always. So for once, Lee. Leave him the FUCK alone!

Lee was speechless, but he did as you said and left to go look for Clementine or something, leaving you and Ben alone.

-(y/n)...

You turned around and faced him, a sweet and innocent smile playing on your lips.

-Ben.

You said playfully. His face softened and he hugged you, tight, which caught you off guard but never the less, you hugged back.

-Hey (y/n)?

He pulled back and looked into your beautiful (e/c) eyes.

-Yes?

He inched closer.

-I love you.

And so, he closed the gap between you both in a sweet, passionate kiss.

~~~

Extended ending:

As you and Ben got your make out session on, Lee and Charles both watched from afar.

-I give it a month before (y/n) is carrying a child.

Lee chuckled as Charles looked at him.

-I give it 3 weeks...
