Carrisa POV
I've been driving for who knows how long when I hear a beep. I look at the dash and see that the gas is low. So I pull up to a gas station and look around. I don't see anything so I look inside. Aha! there's one gas container left, so I take it.
I fill up my car and I'm on my way again.
After another few hours I realize that I'm starving. I reach into my bag and grab a pack of veggie crackers and eat those. I'm also debating drinking some of my water. I don't want to but I force myself to have a few sips.
A couple minutes later I had to stop because there's fallen trees and debris with a car under it. From where I am sitting I can see a walker trying to drag it self from under the vehicle.
After walking around looking for a way around I find a way around.
After driving for a while more I find a house to stay in. I stayed there over night and I slept like a log. I woke up that morning to voices.
" Hey. Get over here Jim" someone said
" What?" someone asked
" You weren't done bringing this stuff in" the other person said.
Oh my god. I'm screwed.
I agree my things and walk into the bathroom. Very carefully to not make the floors creak.
Once I'm in the bathroom I lock the doors and pray that they won't find me.
" I'll be right back man, I need to pee" someone said
CRAP. This is the Only bathroom. The person comes and tries to open the door but it's locked
" What the heck?" he muttered
Oh no.
I think he's gone when I hear a click and the door swings open.
" What are you doing here? He asked me
" What are you doing here?" I asked in a mocking tone.
" Don't give me-" I grabbed him by the neck a started choking him. I felt terrible as I did it but I did what I had to do.
The only thing I have to do now is get out of here. I climbed through the window in the bathroom and jumped if the not so high roof.
Lucky I had all my stuff I though as I sprinted so I was out of sight if the house.
Well, I guess I don't have a car now.
That sucks. I was walking and I. Priced a sign for the college that Carl goes to.
California state College.
I walked and walked until I saw the college. I walked inside and cleared the main floor of the residence. I walked up 2 flights if stairs and then realized it was Carl's floor. Room 212. I was running down the hall and it reminded me of when I was trying to find Emma's room. I pushed the thought from my head before I start crying. I have a task and I've almost finished it. To find Carl and then a safe haven.
I hear rustling and I decide to check the room that it's coming from.
I raise my gun and walked through the door.
The thing that I see is horrible. I find my boyfriend laying on the floor skinny and sleeping.

" Carl?" I asked
" Yeah?" He said.
" I'm here now, Carl" I replied.
I get him some food and we talk ( and kiss ) for the rest of the day.
The next day we decide to stay for one more night and then head out to find a safe haven.

Even though the world is screwed up I'm happy.
For now...
