A/N: alright this is a bit shorter than my average chapters but It's really good I think. Just a warning to Harry Potter fans - FEELS MAY OCCUR AND I'M SORRY! Other than that I hope you guys enjoy the new chapter and early update!

Diana's POV:

Lori led me into a kitchen area where she started rummaging through the duffel. She pulled out some cans and began to put them up on a shelf. After a few minutes Rick came in, "How far away was that highway, again?" He asked me.

"Rick..." Lori called him over softly. He turned to her and inched closer to her, "I think there's been enough excitement for today. Let Diana rest. She really needs it."

"Not as much as we need the supplies," I chimed in. I hated being locked indoors, "I'm alright, Lori. The days new enough for us to get there, grab a few things, and get back before dinner." I smiled slightly at her. Truth was I was struggling to keep my eyes open right now but I'm sure some fresh air would help.

"Alright..." Lori started, concern behind her voice, "be safe." She kissed him quickly and returned to stacking the cans.

Rick turned her back around pulled her into a hug and holding on for a good while, "Always am." He kissed her forehead and walked out.

Lori held her huge belly as she sat down in one of the old chairs.

"Don't worry, Lori," I smiled weakly at her as she looked up to me, "I'll keep him outta trouble."

"I'm counting on it," I started to walk out. She called to me, "Diana, make sure you come back in one piece, too. You hear?"

"Yes, Ma'am." I called back.

Daryl and Glen had decided to come along as well as Rick. Don't get me wrong, they're all great people but Glen and Rick were scaring away any possible game that we could take back, "Y'all are too loud. I'm gonna walk ahead. See if I can get any game." Rick nodded and I sped up my pace a little.

"Hold up," I turned to see Daryl jogging up to me, "I'll come with ya."

"Alright, but if you start trompin' around too..."

"I won't." He cut me off.

After about five minutes Daryl and I stopped and loaded our bows at the same time, "Ya seein' what I'm seein'."

"First rabbit I've seen all month."

"Mine too," Daryl stepped forward for a better shot then... snap. Rick and Glen came in behind us.

The rabbit took off and Daryl shot at it missing it by an inch. My turn. I shot half a foot in front of the rabbit so by the time my arrow got there It had sunk itself into the White fur of the rabbit. I walked up to the rabbit, pulling out the arrow and hooking the rabbit to my belt. 

Three squirrels later, we were at the highway. I climbed over the railing that was on both sides. This side was flat hunting grounds while the opposite side was a steep, rolling hill, "Watch yer step. Ya fall, there ain't no life alert gettin' ya back up." Daryl looked down the hill shaking his head.

After about an hour and a half of looking around Rick spoke up, "Finish your last few cars and wrap it up. It's gonna be dark soon and we gotta be back before we're missed."

We had split up the work to Rick checking the first twenty cars, Daryl the next, Glen the twenty after that, and me the last twenty until a turned over semi blocked us from the rest of the cars on the other side which we would go back for tomorrow to check.
