Remember Me

Summary:

i have a lot of feelings about the ambiguous fate of characters, or just getting in the heads of characters who died. that's basically all this is with a lot of personal choices in relationships affecting what happens. enjoy with care. i might be adding more chapters?
*edit: realized this morning that lilly wouldn't have known about duck's bite. tweaked it.

Notes:

the chapters gradually get longer lmfao

-mentions of duck being infected
-nick's death mentioned and briefly described
-luke drowns and it's written out from falling into the water to losing consciousness
-christa goes back over the main storyline's footsteps. she finds sarita, she finds sarah, and will continue so on. sarah's body is described somewhat, and it's messy because of how she died.
-kenny goes back and finds ben. ben's body is described as being torn up due to his death. kenny's faith comes into play for the end of the fic

Chapter 1: Cringe at the Lightning

Chapter Text

"Come with me."

"Okay, yes. I will."

She narrowed her eyes, turned her head slightly. "Really?"

"Yes."

She didn't believe him. Up to the end, he wasn't even sure if he believed him. She urged him to get Clementine, they would all leave together. Lee nodded, and he stepped out of the car. She stayed concealed from anyone else for a moment, watching, contemplating. He was lying. He had to be. If she had even the slightest bond with someone whose child was dying to the walker sickness, she wouldn't leave. Not even for a friend. Especially not a criminal that she had become. But she didn't know someone's child was dying of the sickness, and she was leaving. Lee was lying. He had to be. He had to.

Lilly moved into the seat, grabbed the keys, and started the RV. Lee wasn't coming. He had to be lying. She wasn't sure up until the end that he would have actually come, or if her own paranoia pushed her to leave him. It didn't matter. Kenny needed him more than she did. Even if he was a goddamn asshole, she wouldn't do this. Not to anyone.

The RV quickly swerved, and she hit the gas as hard as she could. It jerked forward and the revving of the engine drowned out Kenny's screams.

Most of them, anyway.
