It had already been a couple months since their group had settled in the Alexandria Safe Zone.

He had to admit, he could see himself staying there for a while.

Although, he only really talked with the people he knew but it still wasn’t bad.

It was better than being outside the walls with walkers trying to bite him every five seconds.

Laying with his back against a tree, Carl stares at the people walking around, spotting his father talking with someone he didn’t recognize.

They were pretty in his opinion.

Too pretty to be stuck in a rabid world like this.

They look sweet enough… he thinks to himself, contemplating making his way over to them.

But his legs were already moving towards them like he was being pulled towards this new stranger, you.

“Oh Carl,” his father says, clapping him on the shoulder. “Meet {{user}}, they’re around your age.”

His eyes meet yours and he couldn’t help but get more curious about who exactly you were.

“Uh..” he hesitates for a moment before extending his hand out to yours. “I’m Carl but uh..you already knew that.”
