The Walking Dead Clementine X Male Reader

Chapter 40: It's That or Die

You all make it to the rest of the group. You put you hands on your knees, out of breath. The group notices you.

Carlos: Y/N! Are you alright?

You: I'm fine...

You look at Clementine, knowing that she'll get worried, but you have no other choice. You look back at Carlos.

You: But... I did get shot.

Clem: What?!

You take off your jacket, revealing the cauterized wound. This makes Clem gasp. Carlos looks at it.

Carlos: How did this happen?

You: Well, I can assure you; it wasn't a walker bite.

Luke feels a little guilty.

Carlos: Ha-ha. How did it really happen?

You: I was on my way back when I was attacked by some assholes.

He examines the wound.

Carlos: What assholes?

You: Well... there was a guy in a brown coat.

Clem's eyes widen for some reason.

Luke: That guy got to the cabin. Clem met him.

You look at Clem with worry in your eyes.

You: Did he hurt you?

Clem: No. He didn't do anything.

You breathe out heavily in relief.

Clem: How's his wound?

Carlos: It's cauterized pretty good.

You spot Nick out of the corner of your eye. Nick steps forward when he realizes something.

Nick: Where's Pete?

You: W-we, uh...

You look down.

You: We got attacked.

The group gasps.

Nick: What?

You: We stayed out in a cigarette truck for a while. It's not far from here. We decided to get out, but walkers came. Pete told me to run, and...

Nick looks down.

Luke: I'm sorry, man, but we gotta go.

You think about it for a second. But eventually you ask him.

You: Do you wanna see him?

Carlos: We need to get moving.

You: Where exactly are planning on going?

Carlos stops looking at your wound and stands up.

Carlos: Away from here.

You: Well... the place that we were at is away from here.

Carlos: What's the point of going there?

Luke: To bury him, Carlos.

Nick looks a little hesitant, but nods.

Nick: Where is he?

Timeskip
You're all walking down the path. Clem notices something different about you.

Clem: Cool jacket. She says, with a smile.

You turn to her and smile back.

You: Thanks.
