day 477
it's been a couple hours since evelyn has left marcus, the baby, and me alone. marcus is holding the baby while i'm reading a book in my chair. i found the book in emmett's pile of junk, he has all sorts of stuff in there, like drawings and maps. marcus is pacing around the room, trying to get the baby to fall asleep. "can you try y/n? this isn't working," marcus says. "alright hand it over," i sigh. marcus makes his way over to me and hands me the baby. i take the baby from his arms and cradle it. marcus walks behind the chair and wraps his arms around me, watching me try to put the baby to sleep. i rock the baby back and forth, and after a few minutes it falls asleep. "thank god," marcus sighs in relief. "i'll be back in five minutes, i'm just going to go upstairs and look around," marcus says. "please be careful," i say. marcus nods and before he leaves he leaves a kiss on my forehead. "he grabs his flashlight and binoculars, and climbs up the hatch.
about ten minutes later i start to wonder where marcus is. he should be back anytime now. then all of a sudden i hear a crash coming from above and i jump. oh no. marcus better be coming back. one of those creatures must've heard that. i run into the tank with the baby in my arms. i make sure to leave the door open in case marcus comes down and needs to escape from one of those creatures. a few second later i see marcus drop down the pipe and start running. i hear heavy footsteps above, which i assume is one of the creatures. before marcus runs into the tank he picks up the baby box and carries it over. as marcus is pushing the box into the tank i see the creature drop the pipe down and climb out of the hole in the ceiling. i help marcus pull in the box and he follows in right after. he closes the door after him and i set the timer. hopefully the creature leaves in time so we don't run out of oxygen. i put the baby in the box and wrap the mask around its face. i turn the oxygen tank on and turn towards marcus. "what did you do?" i ask marcus. "i was looking around and i accidentally bumped into a table of some sort and knocked whatever was on it," marcus answered. i reply, "that was so stupid. you shouldn't have gone out, especially with your injured foot. what if you hadn't gotten back in time?" "i'm sorry," marcus sighs. he grabs my hand and i lean into his shoulder. "we will just wait in here until the creature leaves," i say.
