Y/n P.O.V

We walked into the building opening one of the huge doors and we see it covered in vines and plants witch was pretty cool. Yet we heard a faint sound of a piano playing a little further away. "Follow the music." I say and begin to follow the sound.

It was very pretty to be honest, I haven't heard proper music in forever.

The inside seemed to be a big room with old furniture and broken glass. Yet there was a huge window with the sun shining right through reflecting on shiny surface's of the other objects and in front of as was some sort of grand staircase.

The music didn't seem like it was coming from up stairs but rather from this floor to are right once we turned to that corridor only to hear some girl yell. "GHA! You little mother fucker!"
I got a little nervous of what might have happened. And a ginger girl stormed out and looked at us. "Hey." She began. "HEY." She pointed finger at us angrily. "Uhh." Clem said having the same confused expression on her face as me. "'Bout time you woke up!" She yelled again making me flinch. "Your little boy just BIT me!" She came closer to us. "He's lucky, didn't take a boot to his head." Now that made me angry he is just a kid god damn it. "Nearly took a chunk out of me." She again complained I'm not saying its her fault but calm down jeez.

"Gha. It hurts something fierce."she said looking down. " God. I'm so sorry." Clementine apologized. "He acts out sometimes he's been through alo-" she got cut of by the rude girl again. Honestly what's up with her she couldn't even hear Clem out. "Yeah well ain't we all." I rolled my eyes at her since she wasn't paying much attention to me. "Don't see any of us sinkin' our teeth in any y'all." She aggressively moved forward. "Boy needs to learn some respect." She spat at us before leaving.

What if she was right and I did a bad job at raising him. When we got him after Kenny left we split tasks Clem was to teach AJ the basic of shooting and fighting while I had to teach him manners and the reading. Seems like I did a pretty shitty job on the first task.

"Hey don't listen to her I'm sure you did a grate job ok." Clementine smiled at me. I nodded and gave her a hug. She was always there for me too cheer me up or to just talk about nothing.

We turned the corridor to see a source of music it was a boy about our age playing the piano. I was shocked I've never seen anyone play before a specially in such circumstances.

We stood by the door looking at the scene. AJ standing there looking at the piano in amazement. Well he never even seen a piano so I understand why. I could see Clem smile in the corner of my eye.

I saw AJ turn around and look at us. "Clem, Y/N!" He happily said with a smile running to us we bent to his level and hugged him. "Hey goofball. " I say happy to see that he's ok. "Thank god your ok." Clem also said seeming worried. We gave him a long hug.

"I was afraid you two were-" but he got cut of by Clem checking him for any injuries. "We're ok." She smiled at him yet again. "And you know what you are..." Clem tailed of looking at me. "What?" He asked her. "Ticklish!" I finish as we both attack him with giggles.

"But...AJ listen to me." She said as we both stood up. "That girl out there said you bit her." She continued "is that true?" I ask him as he looks away in shame. And looked back at us. "I'm sure she didn't mean to sceare you... But it's not ok to bite people." I say looking at him in the eyes.

"She snuck up on me I didn't want to hurt her." He said looking at us.

"I'm sure you didn't just no more bites ok?" I say giving him a sweet smile. He nodded. "No more bits." He repeated.

"Your not dead that's good." We heard someone say behind AJ. I look to see the guy that was playing the piano. "Watched ya kid for ya." He smiled at us. While turning in our direction. "My name is AJ." Our little guy replied.

"Excuse me, I watched AJ for you." He seemed like a pretty cool guy I like him... Well more than that girl we met five seconds ago. I think to myself.

"Thanks we appreciate it." Clem said and I smile widely and nod. He chuckled. "No problem well no " no" problem he was a bit of a handful. " he sighed. I felt so bad about it. I should have told him how to behave.

"But I got of light compared to what Ruby went through." He said marking me feel worse. Ruby was probably the girl we saw in the hallway. I sigh just proves how bad I am at teaching AJ.

"AJ doesn't like people coming up behind him." Clem replied placing a hand on AJ's shoulder. "Don't ever do that." AJ grumbled.

"Loud and clear little man." Louis said cheerfully. "Thankfully I was there to calm him down with my alluring music." He turned to his piano again.
He began to play again.

"I'm Louis." He smiled at us. "Clementine and this is Y/n." She gestures towards me. He continued playing.

"Oh yeah totally forgot." He started. "Marlon left your bag in here somewhere." I look to are right and see our bag "don't worry I've got it." I say walking to it. I picked it up and open it handing her the knife and getting my weapon out. I look at the bottom to see her hat, I hand it to her. She smiles and puts it on. And underneath it was my photo book. Well more like random day stuff book. I smile to myself. It was just small enough to fit in the back of my pants pocket. I took off my bandage the blood wasn't there anymore and it felt uncomfortable. I saw AJ's gun and handed it to him.

"Um dose he know what that is." Louis asks concerned.

"It's dirty." AJ commented on the state of his gun. "Clean it." Clementine simply said.

"Maybe later. Back you go" He said puting it away.

"Where it belongs." She said looking down at AJ.

"Dude that can't be a good idea." Louis interrupted. "That thing is bigger then him. Is it actually loaded."

"Yes." AJ replied to his question looking irritated at the confused Louis.

"He earned our trust with it." I give him a short reply.

"He's a tot." Louis argues with me.

"Yeah a tot who can shoot." Clementine interrupted.

Louis shook his head. "You guys do you I guess...." He tuned to his piano again.

He began to play the same tune again. "You don't know any other?" She asked. "Well there is one..." He tried off. "But your armed." He said. Clem raised and eyebrow at him. He just softly shook his head and turned back placing his hands on the keys.

"Oh my darling, oh my darling
Oh my darling, Clementine
You are lost and gone forever
Dreadful sorry, Clementine"

I giggled. "I love that song." Clementine said sarcastically walking closer.

"Light she was and like a fairy
And her shoes were number nine
Herring boxes, without topses
Sandals were for Clementine"

AJ also giggled as Louis finished. "What do you think AJ?" Clem asks.
"I don't know its loud." He studies the piano. "It is." Clementine replied. "Loud is bad." AJ looked up at us. "Not always." I interrupt.

"Come press this key!" Louis invited AJ to sit next to him. "Go a head AJ press it." Clementine pushed him slightly forward. He slowly walked up to the piano and quickly pressed the key moving his hand away looking up at Louis.

"Now press this one." Louis mentioned to another key. AJ did so. "And this one." He smiled and pressed the key. "Your a natural." Louis laughed a little at the exited boy. Me and Clem smiled at him.
