A/N - This is a one-shot about if Luke survived. (I'm kind of in love with his character and was honestly devastated when he died; If he had died heroically then I would understand but drowning should not have been his cause of death) - Enjoy ;)


"Maybe she came back for you…" Bonnie says looking down at Luke sitting on the ground beside her. "I don't know what to say to that." He said looking at the fire awkwardly. "I'd come back for you…" Clementine said smiling at the man she had grown so close to. Bonnie and Mike smiled at her mischievously. "You know what I mean." She says looking away from them. Luke just smiled. "Thanks you, Clem. I'd do the same." He says simply.


Just a few hours ago, Clementine was enjoying a laugh filled conversation with Luke and the other group members. They talked about how they thought Jane came back because of her feelings towards Luke. Clementine had told him she'd of came back for him too. Although the looks she got from Bonnie and Mike embarrassed her a little, she was glad to hear that Luke would do the same for her. Now she was standing on a frozen Lake, torn between following Luke's orders and shooting the surrounding Walkers from where she was or risking her life to go back and save him from falling into the freezing water.

She slowly started making her way towards Luke, whose leg had collapsed through the ice, and reached her hand out in an attempt to get to him.

"Just go back! Please… please…" he begged her to stop but she kept going.

"I'd come back for you…"

She wasn't going to let another friend die. They had already lost the rest of the cabin group; Pete and Carlos were eaten by walkers, Alvin lost to Carver, Nick probably died of blood loss, Sarah was crushed by the deck and Rebecca was defeated by the weather. She wasn't going to lose Luke too!

"It's gonna be alright!" she said as she took another step forward.

As her foot connected with the ice, there was a loud crack and the surface collapsed beneath her. She plummeted into the ice cold water with Luke.

The cold of the water caused her to panic and loose her surroundings for a second but she quickly got back on track. She saw Luke heading upwards and decided to do what he was doing but when she tried to swim up, a new sheet of ice blocked her way out. She thumped and thumped but it didn't even leave a dent.

A walker suddenly grabbed Clementine's leg, surprising her and causing her to lose precious air she would need to survive. Luke appeared next to her and pulled it off her by the head, only for it to sink down and grab his leg instead.

"Thank you, Clem. I'd do the same."

Luke's words span around in her head. She hadn't believed him when he said it at first but his recent actions had proven that her that he would come back for her just as she had for him.

She watched as Luke and the walker started to sink to the bottom. She didn't hesitate to swim down and kick the walker with the little energy she had left. It let her friend go and watched him start swimming up again.

She was faced with a new danger; She had no air left and was trying her hardest to not inhale the water.

Her only thoughts were that this was the end for her but at least she died saving Luke; she died a hero. Suddenly someone grabbed her by the back of her Jacket and yanked her from the water. She inhaled deeply and stared at the sky.

"I'm alive?" she thought as Jane appeared in her line of vision.

"Come one, come on, come on… you're gonna be okay!" Jane said picking her off the ice and running towards the half built house on the other side.

"Oh fuck, she's gonna fucking freeze to death!" Jane exclaimed running faster.

Clementine looked to her side and saw Bonnie and Luke making their way towards the house too.

Luke's skin was a horrible pale colour but he was alive!

Clementine was freezing cold and soaking wet but she was alive!

No one had died; everyone was alright and that was all that mattered in the end.


A/N - This honestly made me feel better writing because LUKE SHOULD HAVE LIVED and now (to me) he did ;D Anyway, I hope you enjoy and don't forget to leave a Review; it would really make me feel better... ;)
