The shadows haunted him, in doorways, outside, as the face of his loved ones. Memories distorted. Faces distorted. Reality distorted. With his mom and younger sister being the only grounding factors in his life, how will a certain hotheaded redneck weasel his way into Daniels world, where most everything feels wrong? ~~~ ✮⋆˙ season 1 - ? ✮⋆˙ I try and update every Sunday!! ✮⋆˙ TW: drugs, alcoholism, self harm, abuse, violence, explicit sexual content, sexual assult, homophobia, offensive language, mental illness. ⋆˚꩜｡ started - Sep 20th, 2025 ⋆˚꩜｡ finished - MILESTONES!! #1 in #malexmale Oct 9, 2025 #1 in #twdfanfic Nov 11, 2025 #1 in #daryl Dec 9, 2025 #1 in #daryldixon Dec 16, 2025 #1 in #twd March 2, 2026 COPYRIGHT DISCLAIMER: I do not own any characters or plot lines from the television show The Walking Dead.

\Carl Grimes X Reader/ COMPLETE Rewrite is out now "This world was made for us. We were meant to be together. To fight together, to make it through this hell together." he replied, holding my face in his hands. His blue eyes looking into mine. "I'll love you for as long as I live".

*** CURRENTLY UNDER CONSTANT REVISION AND EDITING! UPDATING WHENEVER POSSIBLE *** **Previous called "Post Apocalyptic Love (Daryl Dixon Fanfiction** *yes, there is smut. since its a daryl dixon fanfic, it only seemed fitting. i will put a warning in the chapter that have it, so if you are uncomfortable with reading smut, skip that part. this is all my first time writing this kinda stuff so take it easy on me. thanks!* ~~ The book is separated by each season of TWD, so if you have a favorite season you can chose to read Kelley's story from there ~~ A virus broke out across the globe, reanimating the dead and creating mass chaos. In a matter of days, half of the world's population was either dead or turned. The government collapsed, TV and radio stations shut down, and everyone was left to fend for themselves. Kelley lost everything in the beginning. Her family, her house, even her small hometown in the state of Georgia. So she decided to leash up her dog, a Belgian Malinois named Bud, gather some supplies, and head towards Atlanta. She encounters a small group along the way. Survivors just like her, with stories and losses of their own. She soon becomes close to them, feeling like she has found another family, and she will do anything to protect them. This is a story of lost, love, survival, and surprises. The world doesn't care that you are alone, doesn't care if you're hungry, and doesn't care that death lurks around every corner. The undead feed on the living and the living can't be trusted. As the days pass and the world she knew was gone, she keeps a record of everything that has happened since first night. In a world where previous history is long forgotten, Kelley believes it is necessary to write down her journey and keep track of all things apocalyptic, so that maybe one day it will help others learn how to survive... and not make the same mistakes she has. So, let's start at the beginning.

| Book One of the 'Forever' trilogy | ~•~ "I'm like a grenade, Carl. I'll explode one day and I'll take everything and everyone down with me. I cause trouble, hell, I am trouble, and I don't want you to fall because of my temper or my stupid need to put myself as risk to save everyone else." ~•~ A broken world brought them together. Two kids with much to learn, much to see and much to experience. They grew together, and in turn, shaped eachother. It began as an average story, a small piece of what turned out to be an extraordinary life. It was never going to be a happy story, it was going to have ups and even harder falls. They grew together, they became different people and left behind their childhood. She had a shattered soul, and him, a hardened heart. She was going to become what she was destined to be; A Leader. He was going to stand by her side and fight for what he loved; A Warrior. There was much to face before they saw that future. Many scars, tears and losses to endure before they saw that light. So their story began like most others; A girl met a boy. ~•~ Completed : 16th August 2015 Sequel : Forever Unfinished ~•~ *Warning* ~ Contains violence~ All the characters are of the Walking Dead cast and a few of my own. All their rights and settings used go to the Walking Dead team. I do not follow the storyline but some settings and character plots may be used.

Alice was not worried of the unknown. She was worried of what she already knew. She was worried of the promises that the new people were making to her-the ones bringing the people of a fallen Woodbury into their own settlement. The girl felt sorry that she'd touch yet another community. She almost felt as though her presence would bound the new place to its own demise-like she was somehow the common denominator in a world full of chaos and destruction. ───── ⋆✩⋆ ───── carl grimes x fem!oc season 4 - season 8 third person Spanish translation: @-effypops Russian translation: @VeronikasssBVVlack Portuguese translation: @stellesk published: November 30, 2022 completed: December 8, 2025 ───── ⋆✩⋆ ───── #1 in #walker - 06/21/23 #1 in #carl - 02/24/25 #1 in #carlgrimes - 03/10/25 #1 in #riggs - 07/18/25 + 10/30/25 #1 in #chandlerriggs - 08/03/25 #1 in #carlgrimesfanfiction - 11/24/25 ───── ⋆✩⋆ ───── disclaimers: contains mature themes such as language, blood, gore, non-descriptive nudity, depression, etc. I do not own AMC's the walking dead, nor do I claim to.

'Why are you staring at me like that?' 'I haven't seen you in a while. I was curious to see if you've changed.' 'So what do you think? Did I get old?' 'You were already old.' He snorts and grins at me. 'Well you look like you haven't aged a day. You've only gotten more beautiful.' --- He scared the crap out of me when I first met him. But a lot has happened since then. He used to make me laugh, but cry as well. He made me feel safe on some days, but afraid on others. We left our old lives at the Sanctuary behind and started new ones here at Alexandria.

Bad feelings are one part of what sucks about this world. Good feelings are the other. Because the good stuff is what can get taken from you, the rug that gets pulled out from under you. A warming feeling that, once it's gone, leaves you out in the cold. ───── ⋆✩⋆ ───── first person carl x fem!o.c. slowburn ff season 3 - 8 spanish translation: @iluvvfall portuguese translation: @-scarlletqueen started: September 8, 2021 completed: December 8, 2022 ───── ⋆✩⋆ ───── #1 in #thewalkingdead - 03/01/2022 #1 in #alexandria - 03/17/2022 #1 in #zombie - 04/02/2022 #1 in #chandlerriggs - 04/07/2022 #1 in #carl - 04/07/2022 + 09/28/23 + 06/28/2023 #1 in #twd - 06/19/2022 + 06/02/2025 #1 in #thewalkingdeadfanfic - 06/24/2022 #1 in #originalcharacter - 06/28/2022 + 08/27/24 #1 in #twdfanfic - 07/12/2022 #1 in #michonne - 08/03/2022 #1 in #walker - 12/21/2022 #1 in #carlgrimesfanfiction - 04/04/2024 #1 in #riggs - 04/18/2024 + 01/14/2026 + 03/23/26 #1 in #grimes - 01/27/2025 #1 in #carlgrimes - 04/17/2025 #1 in #carlgrimesfanfic - 05/14/25 #1 in #zombieapocalypse - 03/23/26 ───── ⋆✩⋆ ───── disclaimers: contains mature themes such as language, blood, gore, non-descriptive nudity, depression, etc. I do not own AMC's the walking dead, nor do I claim to.

❝I admit I'm a bit of a victim in the worldwide system too, But I've found my sweet escape when I'm alone with you.❞ Sydney \syd-ney\ "wide island" Sydney-Marie Evans is 'famous'. She'd never call herself that, but with her debut album being produced, a Disney movie out, and a main role on The Walking Dead at only fifteen, she's relatively known. With a seemingly happy family life, growing career, and a close group of friends, you'd think she'd be the happiest, most fulfilled person in the whole world. Except, when she's with her family in LA, she doesn't get to see her friends, and when she's filming in Atlanta, she doesn't get to see her family. Hopping from place to place isn't the best thing for her, especially when you add possible feelings for her best friend and co-star to the mix. Having denied anything other than friendship for years only to fall into this grey area of feelings and having to do a long distance, secret sort-of-relationship isn't exactly her cup of tea, but if there's something these two can do is probably make it work.

|Book Two of the 'Forever' trilogy| Sequel to 'Forever Alone // Carl Grimes.' "Your journey will be hard. It will test the limits to your love for this girl. I can sense that you will discover yourself, you will learn new things and live life on the edge. Don't loose faith in her, what you find may not be what you seek." ~•~ Carl's world crashed down around him when he picked up the letter covered in black ink and broken promises. He is left with nothing but the shattered memories of the girl that left him because she believed that it would save them both in the end. With Lauren gone, life seemed a little more dull. Nothing brought him excitement because she wasn't there to enjoy it with him. Carl is left chasing after the breadcrumbs that Lauren left behind on her trail to find herself. After all, he would gamble with his life if she held the cards. One long journey and one million possible problems. But after everything he has gone through, will he find what he was looking for? ~•~ "That's what they say about soulmates, that their hearts beat together. Carl knew that if her heart stopped beating, his would too." ~•~ Completed : 17th April 2016 - Forever Alone, Forever Unfinished, Forever Broken - *Warning* ~ Contains violence~ All the characters are of the Walking Dead cast and a few of my own.

"If love manages to sprout from the soil that hatred has irrigated, then that means it must be true love." What are you capable of doing to protect the ones you love? What about the ones you hate? What makes you fall for someone who you just know you shouldn't be falling for? Is it their smile? Is it their heart? Their voice? Maybe the small mannerisms like how their brows furrow in concentration? And how long does it take for that said someone to sneak into your heart when you know you shouldn't have left the door open? Maybe you should just let yourself find out. What's the worst that can happen? -- Hello, my lovely cherries! This story starts a while after our favorite antagonist Negan crosses paths with Rick Grimes and his group. There have been some alterations in terms of storyline, timeline and events, so I wanted to give you a heads up before you dive in, because there may be some confusion. It's an angsty and rough slow burn and there is some smutty stuff (gotta give the people what they want, right?). Negan x OC. It's my first ever published story and there will definitely be a second part, but it's still in the making and I wanted to see how this one does. So, enjoy! Warning: Contains mature themes such as sex, violence and inappropriate language. There are some spoilers, so if you haven't seen the show until the very end, go watch it and come back here.

💌The Walking Dead 💌Carl Grimes x OC ⊱ ────── {.⋅ ✯ ⋅.} ────── ⊰ They say home is where the heart is, but that's not where Mae's was. Mae's parents were always stern with her. But Mae didn't care. To Mae, the way her parents behaved with her was preposterous. She wasn't a child, and she knew that. And Mae knew that it was a luxury to be rich, and she didn't take it for granted. With great wealth also comes loads of party invitations. And then she found herself at a party in the land of hopes and dreams, America. She felt distressed when she was in the large hall. And so, like any sane teenage girl would do, she sneaked out. But her parents found out and sent a couple of bodyguards after her. And so she has to make a detour to the woods. There, she meets a boy who changes her life in dozens of ways. ⊱ ────── {.⋅ ✯ ⋅.} ────── ⊰ 💌Started writing on: September 18, 2023 💌Finished writing on: July 30-31, 2024 💌Published on: October 31, 2023 💌Book ended on: July 31, 2024 -This book is my own original work. -I do not allow it to be posted on social media without my permission. -This isn't really a slow burn.

"Because I needed to put them out of their misery," you respond. His intense, bright, blue eyes. His sleek, long, brown hair. His smile that's hard to hate. You just can't get enough. When it started, you were independent, only Flare was there to accompany you. However, just like that, you join a group. Rick and his gang. It wasn't expected, but you can't leave. You couldn't leave. Carl is your bodyguard. He's been ordered to keep an eye on you. Ever. Since. Day. One. ... It all happened when you were raiding an abandoned, old shed. That's where you crossed paths with none other than Carl Grimes. His distinct features remain engraved into your brain and despite thinking that love makes one grow weak; you begin to develop feelings for him. Regardless of what others may think, you continue to pursue him. However, when the group encounters various challenges that test loyalty, trust and courage, you wonder if it's actually meant to be. ... "Carl," he stops and looks at you. "Get away from her." "Why?" Carl simply asks. "Come here," Rick tells him. Carl looks over at you, then Rick. He shakes his head no. "I didn't ask you, I'm telling you." Rick grits his teeth. Carl reluctantly obeys. You watch him as he leaves eyes never loosing contact with his. Rick shuts the door cautiously. As soon as you hear it shut, you stroll over to the door and press your ear against the thin wood. You could hear Rick's faint voice. "Carl. Keep watch over her," he whispers. "She's dangerous." "What do you mean? She's a kid. Just like me. What makes her any different?" Carl defends you. Your heart begins to thud. He's protecting you. Just like what any and every body guard should do. ... A touching fanfiction decorated with intricate detail, heart-racing action scenes and a painful yet deliciously sweet storyline. The only advice I give to you before reading is to prepare yourself both mentally and emotionally. For yours to read and cherish.

I just want everything to stop so that I can finally breathe again - something I haven't been able to do for three months, one week and two days exactly.

"Every eldest daughter is the first lamb to the slaughter" I never thought I'd meet him, a boy who cared. A boy who wanted me as much as I wanted him. Someone who cared. Someone who might just love me. If there was one thing I wanted, it was love. Not the lust kind of love. Not the forced kind of love. The 'I love you and I chose to' kind. The soft kisses at night and hand to hold when you feel scared. The shoulder to cry on. And he gave that to me. He gave me everything. ♤♡♤ I've been alone since my dad left me in an animal trap. Father of the year, right? I know not to trust anybody. That was a lesson learned a long time ago. So you know what happened when I got found by a man and his son, looking ugly, crying in a ditch? And then meet a police officer who is trying to find his family. "I have a son about your age, it'd be nice for you two to be friends" that's what Rick Grimes said to me a few days before I went with him to Atlanta to find his family. I guess I learn that some people may just be trustworthy. I might even find a family. And I might just finally feel safe, not broken. I might grow, I might break. All with the help of a certain boy in a sheriff's hat. Wanna know how all that happens? Keep reading. You're in for a wild ride.

Bit by bit, piece by piece, little by little, and chapter by chapter. Good luck, and don't get bit before you finish the story, because this girl doesn't tell it twice.
