based on the series 'the walking dead' - i do not own any of the main characters apart from y/n - it is recommended to have watched twd before reading this as this is a fanfiction and not a story so therefore not everything will be explained - this fanfiction contains violence & gore, self harm, sexual assault, strong language and heavy smut so if you're sensitive to any of these do not read - this fanfiction won't entirely follow the plot of the series itself but will be fairly similar - carl and y/n will both be sixteen but will age as the fan-fiction goes on! - y/n will be a female character please feel free to let me know of any mistakes/plot holes so i can improve my writing. also if you could vote if you like it that'd be great, thank you🫶🏻hope you enjoy! ☺️
