In the Morning
------------------

Ah, finally a good night's rest. It had been a while since I had a full day of sleep. I got up and looked around the house to check on everything. Brian and Nick were gone, but their stuff was still in the house so I assumed that they hadn't left permanently just yet.

I walked upstairs and went into the bathroom to see if any of this stuff still worked. I turned on the faucet to see that it doesn't work and neither did the shower.

I went into Brian's room next to see that he still had his duffel bag in the corner and the picture still on the bed. I tried to not disturb anyone's privacy to ensure that nothing bad would happen between us, but I was curious. It seemed like a good idea to look at the picture and maybe ask them about it.

I looked close at the pic and could point out Nick in the middle, except that he had glasses in the picture

I looked close at the pic and could point out Nick in the middle, except that he had glasses in the picture. I could see Brian on the right sporting the all black look. He said this was taken years ago the last time I asked and I believed them. They looked around 20 now and this picture looked like they hadn't even hit puberty.

The thing that really stood out was the kid cropped into the middle of the photo. He had glasses and looked pretty similar to the guy I saw back in New Richmond. He was in the Armory the last time we spoke. I could remember him telling me about my dad and saying that his name was Weston. Could this be him in the photo?

I ended up putting the photo back and went downstairs to check both of my backpacks that I brought with me. I put everything back into my bag and then Clem's bag. They were empty from yesterday when we took out the supplies and they used my bag as storage.

The door opened while I was re packing. I jumped from shock and hid by the couch to see that it was just Nick and Brian.

"Yo Gabe, we leavin' today at around 11 am. We just checked our names for hunting duties today and we can finally ditch." Nick said as he walked in.

"Remember our deal? I'm not leaving without Clementine." I retorted.

"Yeah we remember. I could check to see if Clementine has any jobs today around our area and we can take her with us." Brian replied.

"O..okay, can you go check that right now?" I asked.

"Yeah, I have to siphon gas for this motorcycle anyways. I'll go check the listings."

And just like that, Brian went out again, leaving Nick at home.

"He'll be back soon, that guy doesn't take long," Nick said, heading to his room "I'll be back here taking what we've got left to take with us."
