"I think we need to start looking for a place to stay for a while...the woods aren't safe." I said. "Yeah, and I'm hungry, too."

We were walking for a few hours until we came to road. We walked down the road and found a neighborhood. A few walkers, but it's nothingbwe couldn't handle. We must have woke up late because the sun was going to set in a few hours. "God, you're beautiful." he said, looking up at me, as he was taking his knife out of a walker's face. I blushed. The neighborhood looked clear, so we started raiding house after house, finding the usual stuff like food and supplies. We got to the last house. Carl opened the door and there was a walker coming for him. "Back up, I got this." he said. I hid behind the door. He lured it out and stabbed it. We went in the house and closed the door. There was no more in the house. "I think I lost my appetite." I said, looking around the house. "Never mind!" I said, opening a cabinet in the kitchen. I found a huge box of Cheeze-Its. He walked in. "Mmm, junk food!" he said, laughing. "More like dinner." I laughed. I took the Cheeze-Its and he followed me to the couch. We were just cuddling together, eating Cheeze-Its and looking at a black TV screen. "I miss electricity..." I said. "And I missed you." he said. "I love you." he said,  nuzzling my shoulder. "I love you too." I said. We fell asleep cuddling, forgetting every terrible thing around us. That night, he made me forget that the world went to shit.
