[Your POV]
Clementine's still driving down the road. You've all been in the car for a few hours now. It's nighttime.
Chloe's in the back, trying to find out where you all are on a map. Your phone died not too long ago; so did the portable chargers, so Chloe is resorting to old school.
Clem: Alright, where do you think we are?
Chloe: I don't know, this thing's confusing.
Clem: Alright, well...keep lookin'.
You're still grateful that Clem decided to stay. You both haven't gotten the chance to talk privately yet.
You: What about hotels or somethin'?
Chloe: This is a road map. Doesn't show buildings.
Clem: Damn. We're probably just gonna have to...
She yawns.
Clem: power through until we get there.
You: You alright?
Clem: Yeah, I'm good. Just a little tired. Long day, ya know?
You: Yeah, no kidding. I think we should stop for a bit; get some rest.
Clem: Where? I don't know where we could stay.
Chloe: I might.
You look back at Chloe. She's looking at the map.
Chloe: There's this lookout thing. Look's like it's got a pretty good view of a lake.
Clem: A lake? You planning on swimming?
Chloe chuckles.
Chloe: Maybe.
You: I'm up for it.
You look at Clem.
You: You?
Clem looks at you and smiles. She looks back at the road.
Clem: Why not?
You smile. You look out the window.
[Time Skip]
Clem pulls up to the lookout. There's a lighthouse right next to the lookout.
Chloe: Fuck yeah--I'll stay here for a night or two.
You: No, not two.
Chloe: Party pooper.
Clem gets out, so you and Chloe do so as well. You all walk over to the back of the car. You open the trunk and you all grab things. You grab two duffle bags, Chloe grabs one sleeping bag and a duffel bag, and Clem grabs two sleeping bags.
You all walk over to a spot with a campfire already set up. Not lit, but you can do that part. You all set the stuff down.
You: Alright, let's get this started. You say, pulling out a box of matches from your back pocket.
Chloe: No, no, no, that's my department. She says, grabbing the box out of your hand.
You: What? Why?
Chloe: 'Cause if there's anyone who can start a fire, it's yours truly. Plus: I wanna be helpful.
Clem: You already got a car working for us. I think you've proven yourself to be quite helpful, Chloe.
Chloe: Yeah, and you drove us the whole way.
You: Exactly, so I should do it while you guys chill.
