My Undying Love (Carl Grimes x reader)

Y/N POV

My eyes fluttered open. I flinched as my eyes were met with blinding light. My lips were chapped and I was freezing. I wasn't dead though. How? I slowly sat up and swung my feet over the metal slab of a bed. I felt weak.

"Hello? Anyone!" I called out, my voice cracking from having not talked in a while. How long was I out for?

Carol walked into the room. Her eyes wide as her hand covered her mouth "Y/N! You woke up!" She said as she carefully walked closer.

"What happened?" I pondered as I scratched my head.

"After you passed out when you snuck out to find Carl, you began to run a fever, you ever began to throw up. But soon you went into a coma like state, it's only been 4 days but we didn't know if the sickness had got you too." She explained.

It was amazing. How had I not died? I clutched my stomach as a whale like noise broke the silence.

Carol laughed as she held up a finger "Let me get you some food"

I watched as she walked out of the room and returned with a bowl of soup and half a bun.

I thanked her as I took the bowl and began to eat the food. I forgot how good hot soup tasted. I stalled my spoonful and looked at her "Where's Carl?" I asked.

Before she answered it hit me. Before I became ill, Grace had attacked me. I gasped and grabbed my shoulder "Where is Grace?" I wheezed almost out of breath.

Carol frowned and leaned down to me "Grace is locked up in a cell. We are trying to decide what to do with her." Carol explained before she walked back up to the door frame "Carl is around here somewhere, probable in his cell"

I nodded at her before she left. I finished my food and stood up as I walked out of my cell. I smiled and waved at the others sitting down in the main cell block. Everyone had a look of surprise on their faces. No one expected me to live.

I quickly walked over to Carl's cell and tapped on the bars.

"Y/N!" Carl exclaimed we he quickly stood up and embraced me into a tight hug.

"Gentle! My shoulder is sore" I gasped as I hugged back.

"Sorry! I just..didn't expect you to make it.." His eyes trailed away from me.

I sighed and nodded "it's ok Carl, I'm still here and that's all that matters now."

He smiled and grabbed my hand before pulling me down to the others.

My eyes drifted to the locked part of the cell block. There stood Grace. Arms crossed with a scowl on her face.

Rick stood up and smiled at me. We exchanged nods before he cleared is throat.

"Now that Y/N is awake and health again. We need to decide what will happen with Grace..."
