Euphoria

Blaire POV
After Cayden fixed Dinner in this Trailer park we were in, there were some supplies left for us, trailers vacant for us, so we gathered around and talked, Gwen came back,"The area is secure, ugh I am starvin like Marvin" She sighed as she put her AK-47 down and grabbed a bowl to get food, Andrea glowed up,"Like Marvin in Cat Ballou?"
"Cat Ballou?" Taryn was confused and Pete knew what she was talking about, Dylan and I got to talking about dogs,"My first dog was a Cocker Spaniel and I've always wanted a dog like that since, she was a good lady" And I said to him,"I had a German Shepherd, he was very lovable, very protective" I laid my head on his shoulder and Michelle came out with a guitar,"Who knows how to play? Could use some live music for once in our lives" This new guy we let in, Jason had his hand out,"I know how to play" So he started warming up and started singing tunes until we all got tired. Jason and his wife, Miranda showed up a couple days ago, they were skeptic about coming into our group, well mostly because we caught them stealing our supplies and we knocked them out, they woke up and we asked them questions, then we eventually got to know each other, turns out Miranda used to be in Fashion, she was a model when she was in her late teen years up to her 30s, she also progressed into Editor-In-Chief for Cosmopolitan. Jason was a small-time musician, by choice, he was also a Chef, huge cook in Ohio and moved where Miranda was at. They had 4 children, but they lost them as time went on, they lost them and now it was only...them. Well Dylan wanted to have a slow dance, but we didn't have any music and Jason was asleep then. "Why can't we just make it back to The Organization already?" I said to him and he sighed,"Yeah I know hon" He pulled me into a hug, I felt comfortable,"I feel like there's something coming towards us" He had both of his hands in sides of my face,"What do you mean?"
"I...have no idea, it's just that feeling you get right? Its constantly there now" He sighed,"Its probably because we've had a lot going on and especially 2 weeks ago, Counterpart and what happened at the building" He did have a point,"Its more than that though and I can't describe it"
"Hey hey....Blaire, we've made it this far, we've faced kids with mental issues, limited resources, stuck in a bad place for years, we are stronger together Blaire. We became stronger emotionally and physically"
"Remember when we were younger, how we had to tolerate each other" He smiled and looked down,"Yeah you intimidated me, but also at the same time you fascinated me"
"You were just a pain in my ass and I was thought,'You know, he made an effort to come all the way out here to find me, I might as well stay by his side' And you were attractive then" He smiled in amusement,"What? I'm not attractive anymore?" I shook my head,"You're handsome now" He smiled and kissed me then Gwen came out,"Alright you love birds, Blaire and I are taking first watch" That uneasy feeling I'm always having in my stomach now, it's been constant and I just don't have the heart to tell him at the moment.

Gwen wanted different music, she did love Jason's playing, but it did get tiring, meaning that it relaxed us too much and we need a different genre, I was walking around the parking lot, I saw the shredded curtains of the room that Dylan and I are sharing, he had the lantern on, along with Michelle and her child. "East end clear Blaire?" I answered yes and asked her,"West end clear?" She nodded and came over to me,"Hey I saw a music store couple blocks over, I'm gonna check to see, well if that's okay with you" I did think about it for a moment there,"I've seen you take care of yourself, I'm sure you can do it. Just need to set the time"
"An hour?"
"Half hour"
"Okay reasonable, I'll be back" She walked on the East end, I said to her,"Timer starts now" I walked around, threw a few rocks here and there, looked up at the moon, realized that it's at its fullest, I was able to see my shadow on the pavement. Made me realize that when I was younger, I felt more at peace with the moon than with the sun, now it progressed to feeling more safe at daytime than nighttime. There was much going through my mind, especially this stomach ache, it feels like it should've been gone by now and I know what needs to be done.
