The Dead Among Us

Part four: Reunited

Winter's POV

"What's gotten into you, Winter?" Nick said, comforting me as I threw up in the toilet. "Nick, I need supplies." I said looking at Nick, "Do you have a flue again?" he asked concerned. "Yep." I lied, "Okay, today. I don't want my girl to get anymore worse." he kissed my head and walked out the bathroom. I cleaned my mouth and the bathroom floor. ( eww😖) I walked out the bathroom, I saw the whole entire floor covered in barf. "Yuck!" I mumbled. "I'll take care of that." Nick came out of the dirty old kitchen. "Okay, I'll go check on Alvie." I said and started walking to Clemmys room. I opened the door to see little Alvie with his little diaper. He woke up when the door made noise, I closed the door. "Awe. Hi. How did you sleep bud?" I childishly asked. I picked him up, He started crying "Awe, Shh, Shh, Shh, Calm down. Are you hungry???" I childishly asked again cradling him in my arms. I opened the door and walked out the room, I saw nick cleaning up the mess I made with a mop. "Yeah, Sorry about that." I apologized "Don't worry, your just a little sick that's all." He stopped moping and looked at me with Alvie. He placed the mop on a wall, the mop leaning on the wall. "You look like a mom. Weird." He walked up to me. I looked at Alvie continuing to cradle him, "Wanna try?" I asked giving him to Nick not waiting for a answer. "Winter... I don't know how to?" He said. "You better learn how too soon!" I playfully said. "Alright, Hold him like this." I pretended to be holding a baby. "Here take this." I put a baby blanket on his right shoulder, "Rest his head there." I pointed to his right shoulder. "Okay?" he said. "There! Perfect!" I said "I'll mop the floor." I said, "Foods ready just letting you know," he said.

- Midnight

- pharmacy

Nick was looking for supplies, Clem had Alvie and we were searching for supplies, I was searching for pills, I found a Mifepristone. I cannot have a child in this.. world. I don't want my child to face this... then one day he or she dies from those things! I held the pills bottle in my hand. Trying to convince myself to take it, "Winter did you find what your looking for?" Nick asked me from the distance. "Yeah, -My voice cracked- Yeah I did."

- At the road

We were on the road, taking our usual path to home. I rubbed my small bump "Oh, god. My feet and legs are hurting" I thought. "What's wrong?" Clem asked. "My feet are hurting." I complaind. "But we barely walked, Winter." Nick said. We saw headlights from the distance, "What the..?" I said narrowing my eyes "Oh shit! Run!" Nick shouted. "C'mon Clem!-I grabbed her hand tightly- Gimme Alvie too!" I said. She handed me little Alvie, I held him tightly too. *Bang!* "Aahh!" I fell on my side, make sure I didn't injure Alvie. They shot my thigh, fuck. "Winter! You okay?!" Nick ran up to me, he tried to help me get up. A light shined at our faces (flashlight), "What do you want?" Clem asked "Get in the truck." the man said sternly. "Why?! You just shot my girlfriend!" Nick angrily said .The man hit Nick in the face "No! Stop!" I begged, "Get in the damn fucking truck!" The man shouted, "Okay, okay, but I can't get up." I said with a shaky voice. "C'mon." Clem helped me getting up, But not too much, she wasn't very strong. Alive began to cry, The man tied our hands but I managed to carry Alvie "Shhh.. Shhhh." I tried to cradle him. "Clem can you give me the blanket on your shoulder? Alvie is getting cold." I said, "Umm.. let me see if I... here." She gave the blanket with both of her hands tied. "Thanks." I tried to cover Alvie as best as I could. "At least I don't have to walk." I said looking at my red feet from all that walking. "Wow your feet are very red!" Clem pointed out, "Yeah, I'm really hungry and I have to go to the bathroom." I complained, *sigh* Nick angrily sighed, "Sorry.." I apologized. "Don't worry, hon, it's not you." he said, After of a few long minutes. The truck stopped "I guess we're here." Nick said, The trailer rolled up. "C'mon, get up!" The man said, I tried to get up since I was shot, carrying a baby and also pregos. Nick helped me up, We walked threw a groceries store and got put out in the cold "Winter!" I heard Therese and a familiar voice I hadn't heard in ages. "Blossom?! Therese?!" I said they both ran up to me, I hugged them both. "Oh, god. I missed you all so, so very much!" I sobbed. "You have a baby?!" Blossom asked, "Its Rebecca's right?" Therese asked "Yeah, but 'Becca didn't make it. She just lost too much blood." I sadly said. "So, that's my child and you didn't do your best keeping Rebecca safe or alive?" A man said from behind. I turned around, "No! It's not her fault Bill!" Therese got between us. "I--I did try my best!" I said "Winter, Shut. Up!" Therese demanded. "It was nobody's fault." Therese angrily said "No! It was her fault! She didn't keep Rebecca alive!" he argued, "Get out of the fucking way!" he pushed Therese. "I-- I r--really-- I'm-- I just couldn't-- I did try! Please! I'm--I'm sorry!" I stuttered. "Bill she lost too much blood! She wasn't gonna make it!" Luke shouted. "Shut your damn mouth!" The man hit him in the face with his gun, "No!" Clem yelled.
