~Please, Say You Won't Let Go~ Clouis

Chapter Twelve: Lost (Clem's POV)

(The day she left to find Louis to the day Louis arrives at the School again)

I rode into the woods for what felt like hours until I came across a highway. I got off my horse and looked through the cars, tearing apart them one by one but then, my horse got spooked by something and ran off into the woods somewhere, presumably never to be seen again.

I rolled my eyes and huffed in frustration.

Whatever, maybe that'll distract some walkers or something.

I kept checking cars, hoping to find Louis or something that belonged to him until I came across a red car with a farmilliar pen in the cup holder in the front.

I grabbed the pen and inspected it for a little while and then looked around, up and down the highway.

"Louis?" I asked out but alas, there was no answer.

I put then pen back and turned around to be face ro face with a Walker which startled me immensely. It knocked me into the car and I grabbed the pen quickly and jabbed it into it's eye, killing it instantly.

My eyes became weary from the past emotions held back, plus the lack of sleep, and the worry about my missing boyfriend, it scared me.

Afterall, he was mute. If he was mute and got attacked by something, he couldnt scream for help or anything.

God... this was all my fault. I shouldve stayed up or gone with him this morning or I could've tried harder to make him know that he's not useless or alone in any of this.

I took my hat off and placed it on the top of a car as I combed back the strands of loose hair and looked at the sun's position.

It was setting.

My stomach growled so I decided to look through more cars until I came across a car with one can of something which I ate for dinner, not caring about what it was.

I'd done this so many times on the road. Alone, with people, with Aj. It wasnt something that had effected me much anymore.

I heaved my bag into a minivan after checking it's saftey. I then climbed into it, shutting the doors and blocking the windows as best as I could, then I got as comfortable as I could've been in a car to get some sleep which didnt last very long because all I could think about was Louis and what could've happened to him.

When daylight finally hit the cars' window, I was up. I collected my things and started heading down the highway by myself.

I wandered for a while, stopping every so often, scavenging for food, just like I did before I got Aj back from that fucking New Frontier.

It only took a few minutes for me to go back into the forest because I want going to find Louis on the road and the sun was really hot.

I walked into the forest on the side where the school was searching for my lover.

When I was a few hours deep into looking for him again, I felt like u was being watched.

"Louis?" I asked into the open again, "If you're there, please come out and come back home. We all miss you and want you to come back. I handled Aasim!"

I stopped in a big circle where there were no trees as I heard the Oh so farmilliar groans of the walkers, then I heard a rock hit the leaves that had fallen on the ground.

"I'm not Louis, but I know who and where he is." A man's voice called out. I spun around to be met with a random man.

With complete shock, I simply stayed quiet and my eyes bulged out of their sockets, knowing he had information.
