Life in the apocalypse (On hold)

Chapter 2

We walk for what feels like forever until we find a small building.
'Let's go look in here. It looks secure enough hopefully there's no trouble in there'
I push Jackson in-front of me just so I know where he is at all time. We slowly and quietly walk into the building and look around. Nothing bad seems to be hiding in here.
'All clear. What do you say wanna stay here for the night Jackson?' I ask him. Even though he knows we have too.
'Mhm'
I know somethings off with him because he's usually full of energy. It's to do with mum and dad. I lightly tap his head and he looks up at me.
'Don't worry bud they'll be fine okay? I'm sure they're near us right now worrying about us. Well find them tomorrow yeah?' Jackson nods sadly and looks towards the ground.
On the third floor of the building there was a small room that had a small double bed in and an electric heater. Luckily the electricity was working in this building. There was a few cupboard with some tins in. Soup. Great. I heat up the soup and give some to Jackson. I want him to keep his energy up. He needs it more. I wait until he's finished and put the dirty siege in the sink.
'Come on little man time for sleep' I pick him up and carry him towards the bed. I place him under the covers and make sure he's comfy. I turn on the heater and face it towards him so I can make sure he's not cold during the night.
'Goodnight jacky'
'Gnight Lizzy' I laugh to myself at how tired he is and stand up. I walk to the door and open it to look out to double check nothing is there. I went to close the door when I heard something drop at the end of the corridor. I look out quickly and see nothing.
'I need to check that out' I think to myself. I look back at Jackson sleeping and then back out the door. I shut the door silently and walk towards where the noise came from. There was another noise when another can fell to the floor and made me jump. I pull out my gun and slowly walk to the end corner of the corridor. I hear rustling around and go to shoot until I see a squirrel run past me. Little~*sigh* thank god it wasn't a walker.
I walk back to the room and see Jackson still asleep. I shut the door and move some stuff in-front of it just for safety. I go over to the bed and get under the cover as well since it is cold. Jackson stirs a little in his sleep before turning over and cuddling up to me. I smile to myself before going to sleep myself. Wondering if tomorrow we will find our parents and if we do I hope they're alive and breathing.
