"My name is May" she said again. "Can you please, untie me?" She said. "I promise I won't attack. I gotta find my brother."

She looked into my eyes. "I promise."
I untied her slowly. AJ went to go to our table, to get my "D" hat I gave him, and put it on. He gave us a thumbs up. "I'll, uh show you around." I finally said. We walked out of my room, and headed outside. "I think your going to like everyone!" AJ said. "You'll like Ruby! She's our doctor, well sorta..." He said.
"Wait there's adults?" May asked. "Well no, well yeah, I guess, I mean we're all adults, know, I guess." I said looking down. "Is he yours? The kid, I mean." She asked. "My name is AJ, not Kid. No, my parents died when I was little." AJ spoke up. "Oh, sorry, AJ. I lost my mom, when I was 3, and my dad...I didn't even know who he was, probably left for cigarettes and never came back, my mom was a hooker, let's just say that."

"What's that?" AJ asked looking at me with curiosity. "Nothing buddy, don't worry about it."

We made it to the outside side door, Louis was there. He ran to us. "Sooo...uh, hi?" Louis smiled awkwardly at her. "Hi."

"Clem you good?" Louis asked.
I zoned out after a few seconds, I think, because I couldn't hear, anyone, or anything for that matter. "Clem?" Louis asked again. I finally looked up. I closed my eyes tight. "Yeah, I geuss so." I shrugged. "Let's go look around" AJ said to May. He grabbed her hand, and walked off. Me and Louis went inside to talk. He looked at me sympathetically, and put his hand on my cheek. I looked into his beutiful brown eyes. "Hey, you can tell me anything. Are you ok?"

I took a deep breath. "Louis...I think I might be pregnant." I looked down.

"Holy, shit..." He rubbed his neck, which is what he usually did when he was stressed or when he was thinking. "Do you know for sure?" He asked. "Well I've been feeling sick for a few days at first I thought it was a bug sense Aasim was sick, but I don't even know. And we-- you know about 2 months ago. Iam late, for my period, and shit, I don't know." I looked back up, uncomfortable with the situation. "Hey, we can get through this if that is the case then... Well just do what we usually do, work things out" he said. "Everytime we work something out someone dies." I started. "We'll, work something out, ok."

"Is this the life, Lee would have wanted for me?"

Louis looked at me. "Hey, he loved you, he's in your heart, he's your conscience."

"Ok Louis...." I smiled at him.

"I love you, Clementine"

"I- I love you most"
