Aaric is the slash ship between Aaron and Eric Raleigh from the The Walking Dead fandom.

Canon
Eric and Aaron are both introduced in season 5, and they are both recruiters of the Alexandria Safe Zone. Eric is seen behind a car while Aaron and most of Rick's group are scouting the cars and trucks on the route Aaron told Rick about when they had been staying at the barn before a storm. While Eric is looking around, he find a license plate and takes it to give it to Aaron, who has a collection of license plates from different states. After that, Eric hides under a car to hide from a herd of walkers that is coming in but the walkers push the car tire onto Eric's ankle and break it. He shoots off his flare gun, hoping for Aaron to come and help him but he is saved by Rick's group instead. Later he and Aaron reunite in a garage and Eric tells Aaron he is fine. Eric remembers about the license plate and hands it to Aaron and they laugh together for a moment before Aaron tells Eric that he lost the car with the collection of other license plates. Aaron later spends the night together with Aaron.

In a later episode Eric is being helped walking by Aaron because of his ankle injury. Eric is soon in the process of being fully healed, and he decides to retire from being a recruiter as Aaron suggested earlier on. Aaron continues to care for Eric's ankle, staying in his home with Eric instead of going to the welcome party for Rick's group, that was being held by Deanna Monroe. Aaron later invites Daryl into his house after they find out Daryl decided not to go to the welcome party. Aaron gives Daryl spaghetti and he and Eric are amused by how Daryl eats.

Aaron is placed in a line-up to be executed by Negan and he goes over his happiest moments since the apocalypse, one of the moments he relives is his reunion with Eric while taking Rick and his group to the Alexandria Safe Zone. Later on when Negan and the Saviors are taking things from Alexandria, Eric and Aaron are standing together on their porch, watching the Saviors take their items. Eric witnesses Spencer be killed by Negan after they play pool and Olivia be gunned down by a Savior. Rosita, who is standing by, shoots at Negan but instead shoots Lucille, Negan's bat. Rick brings Aaron over, who is injured. Eric rushes over to Aaron and comforts Aaron. Negan demands for the person who built the bullet that Rosita shot at Lucille to come forward, Negan tells the Savior who killed Olivia to kill another person. The Savior points the gun at Eric and Aaron, who are holding each other and ask for the other members of Alexandria to not be killed.
