You and Carl had been friends since you arrived in Alexandria, quickly forming a strong friendship. You would walk the streets together, take care of him when the pain in his scar returned, and talk into the night. Every time you saw the brunette with his beautiful blue eyes, a smile would form on your face, and you soon realized that you actually liked him.
However, when you finally decided to confess, it was too late. Carl came excitedly one day to tell you that he had started a relationship with Enid. Months passed, and one day, Carl sadly told you that they had broken up, as it hadn't worked out. You felt immediate relief upon hearing the news, but guilt and remorse took over you when you saw how dejected he was.
Since Carl had broken up with Enid he had become more physical with you, even though he was with you he always seemed to be looking for someone else in you, you knew that deep down he still loved her and that only hurt you more. As the days passed, you did everything you could to make him smile and bring back his old spirits, but nothing seemed to work. No matter how hard you tried, you couldn't be Enid. You decided to take Carl to the new lake you had found near Alexandria, thinking that some water and fresh air might improve his spirits. However, he just stood there with a serious expression while you pointed at the lake with a hopeful smile.
