My stomach has ached all day but my vomiting has stopped. I'm pretty sure whatever it is, is from the events that happened yesterday.

My eyes stayed peeled as we drove along narrow roads that lead us to nowhere. Over and over again we end up at a house that has already been completely cleaned out without any supplies.

"Where are we heading?" I watched as trees passed and an occasional walker.

"I'm thinking Washington D.C." He didn't look at me, he watched the roads and searched for buildings that could have supplies.

"Why there? That's a big city, and there could be a lot of walker herds.." I mumbled knowing no matter what I said that I couldn't change his mind.

"That's where my dad wanted to go in the first place, before we made it to Alexandria. That's where we were heading." His sentence faded out like he was beginning to lose hope. I don't blame him because I am too.

We drove down a long muddy road in hopes of finding some type of supplies and to our luck we came upon a small house. It wasn't occupied because the doors are wide open and the windows are broken. It hasn't been occupied for a long time.

The steps leading to the porch creaked as I walked up them, startling me at first.

"Y/n, let me go in first." I heard Carl say from behind me.

He passed me and entered into the small house. I cleared the smaller rooms and he cleared the larger. We didn't find any walkers, but there were supplies here.

"The medicine cabinet in the restroom is loaded, I think some of it might still be good. You should go check the dates and take some." I nodded and made my way towards the restroom.

I opened the cabinet and found so much medicine I could nearly cure anyone with the flu. I grabbed medicine and began to shove it into my bag. I opened the drawers in the restroom and found a box that read "Pregnancy Test". I thought about my accident with Carl and then thought about how I felt this morning. My stomach turned.

I pulled the test out of the box and shut the door. I read the instructions and urinated on the stick. I waited for it to give me an answer while I continued to clear the medicine cabinet.

I picked the pregnancy test up and my heart filled with excitement.

(**CLIFF HANGER. lol sorry, but is she pregnant or not??:)**)
