A few months later...
"Nick.." I heard a whispered, i mumbled tiredly back to it "nick?" I heard it again.
I opened my eyes to see 12 year old Clementine looking back at me "what?" I whispered back and Clem chuckled at me.
"Troy wants to go scavenging" she whispered and I hummed "tell him to go then" I whispered tiredly as I turned my head to face the window on the bed.
I felt the bed dipped "nick" I heard the whispered again "what?" I whispered back and she giggled.
"He wants you to come" she whispered and I groaned tiredly, Clem giggled before sitting on my lower back.
"He said hurry" she whispered and I groaned again before stuffing my face into the pillow "5 more minutes..." I mumbled into the pillow.
"Nick... it's gonna get late, so we should leave right now" I looked up to see Troy leaning on the door frame with his arms crossed in his going out clothes.
I mumbled some nonsense before stuffing my face into the pillow, Troy laughed at me before I felt the bed dipped on the other side.
"Come on nick.. it doesn't hurt to look around the area for stuff.. there's even a barn not far from here that I saw a little while ago" Troy said to me.
"Is that suppose to make me go? Because I'm a farm boy?" I asked in the pillow and I felt a large hand rubbing my hair.
"Ha! no" Troy said and I smiled into the pillow, I turned my head to face him and I saw him smiling at me.
"I saw something that would make you happy though" he says to me and I grinned at him "what is it?" I asked and Troy shrugged playfully.
"You have to come with me to see" he says and I rolled my eyes at him before turning around which made clem fall onto the bed "hey" she exclaimed.
I chuckled at her before kissing her non hat covered forehead "you think you'll be fine with AJ for awhile?" I asked clem.
She nods her head yes "I have Russell if something goes wrong... but I'll keep you updated on the radio" Clem said and holds up her radio in her hands.
I nodded before stretching "ok... ok let's go" I said to Troy and he smile brightly at me before kissing my forehead "ok.. I picked out some clothes for you in the closet... if you don't mind" Troy said before leaving the room.
I smiled at him as he leaves, I looked at Clem when he left my view and saw a big grin on her face.
"What?" I asked suspiciously on why she's grinning widely, she shrugged with a smile "nothing" she said before hopping off the bed and skipped out the room.
I rubbed my head before getting up and closing the door, I looked at AJ in his bed, laying awake.
"You know what's going on?" I asked him and he babbled some nonsense in response "damn... wish you can talk" I said.
I opened the closet door and saw the outfit Troy picked out for me, I took the hoodie first and it was a navy blue Harvard hoodie and I laid it on the bed.
I then grabbed the black bomber jacket and it looked nice, I laid that on the bed as well and I lastly grabbed a nice black cargo pants with black combat boots.
"Huh.. not bad Troy.. not bad at all" I said before changing into them.
I looked at myself in the slightly cracked body mirror "damn.. I look good" I said and spun around to look at myself in different angles.
"Goo" I heard AJ babbled, I looked at him and smiled "yeah I do look good" I said to him as I picked him up from the bed.
I carried him outside the room and laid him on the couch beside Clem, she smiled at me "nice" she complimented.
