Love will keep us alive. (A bethyl fanfiction- TWD)

Prologue

It has been a month since Rick brought in those residents from Woodbury and things had been quite smooth and settled since then, with no intrusion from the Governor and his men. Everyone got a certain job in the prison and people had been cooperative enough to make the prison a better place to live peacefully, in spite knowing that the future is uncertain and that the impending doom is inevitable.

Rick was kind of finally over with Lori's death or atleast he pretends to be, and now has resorted to farming so that the group could be self-sufficient with lesser need of going on runs. Carl's gun had been seized by Rick for his earlier action of killing a helpless boy, though he helps his father in farming and the other chores. Daryl had proven to be one of the most crucial members of the group with the entire prison depending on his hunting skills, as the numbers of survivors are increasing in the prison and canned food couldn't meet the required amount for everyone. Carol was now one of the members of the prison council including Hershel, Maggie, Glen, Rick, Daryl, Sasha and Tyreese, and had been one of the most productive members. It was surprising to see how far Carol has come; shedding her previous self and now is a completely bold yet caring woman. Hershel had been the same, gentle and caring, providing his medical aid to the ones in need and never faltering to hold on to his faith in God. Maggie and Glen, the two lovebirds- still irrevocably in love in the midst of an apocalypse; their love setting an example that love can still thrive in a decaying and rotting world where humanity is a word long forgotten.

And there was Beth, the youngest of the Greene family who once tried to take her own life as she thought her life wasn't worth living. When the hell broke lose and Beth lost her mother and brother, all she wanted was to die. Her will to live came to an end when the two closest people to her, was shot that day in the farm but still, it wasn't the end of Beth Greene, for she decided to live. She never thought that her life could make a difference in anyone's life but now she was the one taking care of baby Judith and Carl in this ruthless world and it does matter. She is now, a strong and optimist woman who holds onto her faith in God same as her father, and wants to live for her family at the Prison who needs her as much she needs them. She had decided to hold onto her faith and live the best she could in the outnumbered days, loving these people who needs and cares for her as she knows, love is the only thing that will keep them alive in this insufferable and rotting world.
