Me and Lilly's food is running out more than we expected. We decided to skip Lunch.
It's now three in the afternoon and this day has been boring like usual. I would really love to go bathe but I'm not sure if Fox would let us. Maybe I should ask because the worst he can say is no. I get up from my log and walk over to Fox and Dagmar and when I reach them I clear my throat. It gets their attention.
"What do you want." Dagmar says annoyed.
"Um, I was wondering if us girls can go down to the river to bathe." Fox looks at me as if to go on. "It's about a half hour walk south." He looks at Dagmar.
"Do you want to go bathe?" He asks her and she nods. "Yeah, you girls can go." That was easy. Too easy. I say thanks and go back to everyone else.
"What did you ask him?" Lilly asks.
"Us girls are going to bathe." I say happily and Lilly says yes while pumping her arm. "Well lets go." I take Lilly's hand and head down south. I look behind me and Dagmar, Aero, and Lyra follow. Lilly says bye to the boys.

The walk to the river was in silence but once we get to the river there is hooping and a hollering done by Aero. She strips first and gets in.
"This feels amazing to get clean." Aero says while splashing water in the air. She then looks at us and tells us that the water is warm. We all strip down and get in the water except for Lilly, she's just in her bra and panties. She sits on the edge with her feet in the water.
"I have some soap and shampoo." I wade over to Lilly and she hands me the supplies.
"Won't we all smell like fish and shit though?" Dagmar asks.
"No." I laugh. "As you can see, the water is pretty clear." I do wonder where all the fish are at though.
After awhile of comforting Lilly, she gets in the water. I'm so proud of her.
We all wash our hair and bathe. When we're done we figured there is no rush to get back so we just hang out in the water.
"So Max." Aero says with a smirk and I look at her. "You and Harry huh?" I blush and cover my face. Lilly joins Aero in teasing me.
"There is nothing going on." I roll my eyes.
"Sure." Lilly holds it out. "You and him are always talking to each other." Aero laughs along with her.
"Whatever." I say and splash them. "I'm sure Fox and Dagger has something going on though." I smirk at Dagmar and she gives me a death stare. She comes over to me and pushes me. What's her problem.
"Don't you dare call me that. And we have nothing going on between us." She practically screams at me and I try to hush her but she pushes me again. I tell her to stop pushing me. "Then shut the hell up bitch." What just happened? The other girls have shocked facial expressions. I tell Dagmar sorry but she ignores me and turns around.
"Anyways," Aero tries to change the subject. "What if a stranger shows up and sees us? And what clothes do we wear?"
"I'm sure no one will see us and we just get back into our clothes."
"But they're dirty?" Aero says while scrunching her nose.
"At least you're clean." I reassure her and smile.
We all get out so we are at least dry to put on our clothes. It's pretty warm outside and the sun beam is strong so we are dry in no time.
As I'm putting on my pants, Lilly screams and I look over to her then follow her line of sight. I put on my shirt and across the river are zombies. Dagmar thinks quickly and pulls out her pistol. I hurry up to stop her.
