Realistic or Modern The Beginning of the End

"No...I'm good,thanks."


She cuddled up under the blanket and hugged the monkey. Caitlyn closed her eyes and tried to fall asleep.


"Goodnight,Alex."


@DrTrollinski
 
".. Goodnight, sweetheart. Sleep well." He smiled and bowed over to gently kiss her forehead, followed by standing up and flicking her nightlight on. He slowly walked out of the room and left the door open just a little bit, but leaned inside for a moment once he'd stepped out. ".. You know where to find me and Hunter during the night if you need us." He said quietly. (@DryPunishment)
 
"I know. Thanks,Alex."


She slowly turned her focus on getting to that dreamland sooner. Caitlyn could see the adventurers on the DVD cover.


The little girl drifted away to the sweet embrace of sleepiness. She fell asleep.


@DrTrollinski
 
(Okay, guys. Basically, seeing as things appeared to have frozen up in the rest of the town, I'm afraid I'm going to have to make the call to move things onto the next morning. Like I mentioned prior to this moment, I've got something planned that hopefully everyone will get involved in, AND, those who haven't really had the chance to RP that much WILL be given the chances soon, I can promise you that much. I just don't want everyone sitting around doing nothing, that's all - I have to try and be fair to everyone. Keep in mind, that this time-skip only applies to the people in Argonne. It's to the following morning, that's all. One of the main things I will point out is that this is NOT in spite of anyone's actions, it's just that things are moving too slow for one night in the RP, and it's not fair on everyone if they don't have the opportunity to get in. One last thing, if you're tagged and you've got nothing better to do, POST. If you don't post, we'll end up being in the same situation again, and I really hate having to force everyone to move forward - Please, if you have any issues, let me know, and if you think there's anything I should do to make this RP better, be sure to tell me. I've been very edgy over the past few days with stress, paranoia, and I've been feeling a little on the depressed side again, like I mentioned yesterday - All of this has made me quite angry and impatient, and anger combined with paranoia doesn't make my life easy xD


So. In summary - We're moving on. I understand that a lot of you are busy with school, work, and maybe even personal issues, so do not think that I'm doing this to make you feel bad about yourselves. I love you all, and for the two months that this RP has been going, you've all been absolutely amazing, and it's been an absolute pleasure to RP with you so far :) I'll be typing up an advancement most now (Argonne people only, remember.) @DryPunishment, @Soul OMU, @october_rain, @Aryn Harris, @DrCompton, @Vyork Ashfin)
 
(@DrTrollinski -sir life's too wonderful to be depressed over it. This day's been pretty rough for me. Got a bad grade in chemistry and my dreams of getting in the Student Council have been mercilessly crushed by some hypocrites,but I manage. I'm sure that whatever you're going to is going to get better. It always gets better. ;) Turn the frown into a less tense frown.)
 
(I hope that this will be the last time that I have to move things on this way. I'm terribly sorry, guys.)


(Sorry to hear that, man. I hope things turn out alright for you :) @DryPunishment)


Once the night was up, Alex got into bed with Hunter and settled down for a good night's sleep. That didn't happen, sadly. He was actually up all night - he was worried. Was it possible that Hunter was pregnant? He knew he had the pants he wore at the mall lying around somewhere, and he was almost certain that he had the condom packet in one of the pockets, but what could be wrong with it? It was in-date right? He pretended to be asleep and just lied on his side with his back to Hunter, occasionally moving his legs or rolling over to make things seem more genuine. On the upside, at least he'd be awake if Caitlyn needed him during the night.


On the following morning Alex had only managed to get a couple of hours sleep, but had woken up due a crazy nightmare. Typical. He lied in bed and waited. He needed to wait and see if Hunter was sick again in the morning. If she was, then he wasn't going to hesitate. He was going to take Hunter to the pharmacy, and he was going to get her to do a pregnancy test - he shuddered at the thought of asking her, but he needed it to be done. He had other things to worry about as well, though. Caitlyn usually got up early to come in and ask him about words or something else random, so he was prepared for that in case that happened. (@Soul OMU, @DryPunishment)

Carl had great fun on the night that he, daddy, and Scarlet watched a movie together. Popcorn, hot chocolate, and Toy Story? Best night of the apocalypse so far, without a doubt. He was happy to get tucked into bed by Tom and told a bedtime story by Scarlet, but before any of that, he got them both to check the closet in his room. God, he hated that closet, but he never said how much he wanted it gone. He thought there was something sinister about it, but that wasn't really confirmed nor denied, especially as there was nothing bad in it.


Not yet, at least.


He slept through the night like a light that was turned off, leaving Scarlet and Tom to share a couple of glasses of wine together and eventually get to bed themselves (I know you guys haven't had much chance to RP stuff together, but don't worry, I have something planned for you that I'll put into place as soon as I can :) ). On the following morning, Carl was up quite early - Poor Carl had a bit of a tummy ache, but he didn't know why. It was the popcorn, M&M's, and the hot chocolate all mixed together that created that little sense of urgency - he woke up and hopped out of the bed, clutching his stomach as he walked out of the room. Sun was beaming in through the windows, so he knew he'd slept through the night - He'd head to use the bathroom to hopefully relieve the stomach pain, and then he'd go back to bed for a little while if he had nothing better to do; he didn't bother locking the door seeing as no one was awake yet. (@Soul OMU, @DrCompton)


--


Eric slept right through the night as well, holding Jenna at his side - he was hungover by the time morning came, but he was happy that he still had Jenna by his side. He was surprised, as well. He didn't remember getting into bed with her, but he knew they'd done nothing other than kissing seeing as one: They weren't so drunk that they forgot anything, and two: He still had his pants on. He felt a little sick, but not to the point where he felt like he was going to vomit. He snuggled up to Jenna a little more and hugged her gently. He felt cold, and the sound of the bathroom door slamming shut had only woken him up more. (@Soul OMU)

Jose, the Mexican man who was part of Alex's, Hunter's, Adelaide's, and Skyler's little social circle was up pretty early. He got up at four and worked on some of the fence himself - he was a young guy, only in his early twenties, but he had a fair amount of facial hair, his skin was only light, and he was very hygienic. He couldn't stand being dirty. He was muscular, as well, nor did he speak much when he wasn't around his group of friends. Regardless, he was sitting in Ed's Diner and simply sipping a cup of coffee on the back table. (@october_rain


--


(@Vyork Ashfin - If you're still interested, you can hop in however you feel. Your character would have his own small house close to everyone else with gas (hot water, yay), power, and clean water - 'Chef' in the diner was the one who cooks for people whenever they want it, and right now, there isn't any undead even CLOSE to the town, so we're in the safe zone.


For now)

(dafuq. I didn't mean to do that. Sorry.)
 
Hunter slowly woke up the next morning and immediately knew that something wasn't sitting right with her stomach and quickly rushed to the bathroom and started throwing up the soup she had last night, the water staining red from tomato soup.


--


Jenna fast asleep, curled up in his arms, snuggles closer to Eric is quite warm but doesn't seem to notice that Eric is cold.


(@DrTrollinski)
 
Maria scooted over to Mark and wrapped her arm around him. She tried her best to comfort him. Johnathan came back about an hour and a half later with a tire in his hand. Grease cake his face and his pack back was being weighed down by something. Maria still had her arm around Mark. She looked up to Johnathan and smiled softly, her lip trembling. "So? What did you get?"
 
Alex's suspicions felt so true right there and then. With a sad sigh he got up from his spot on the bed and then walked to the front of it and sit down on it, looking off at the bathroom door. He decided that he'd wait for her to come out, seeing as she deserved at least some privacy to finish throwing up and then freshen up a bit. There was no denying it, though - She needed to do a test. Alex was certain of that.


--


Eric smiled as he shut his eyes over again, holding Jenna close. He didn't know who it was in the bathroom in the hallway, but they'd been in there a while now. Oh well, they were probably fine. He snuffled up close to Jenna and held her close - after a few minutes, he started to feel a little bit warmer and more relaxed. When it came to alcohol, ever since the month were he turned temporary alcoholic, it had always had a different affect on him. (@Soul OMU)


--


By the time Johnathan got back, Mark had his face buried in Maria's side and he was sobbing. Silently, but sobbing nonetheless - He didn't even need to tell her what he was so upset about - the way he went from just simply looking at Cole, and then going straight to crying made it obvious what had gotten him in such a state. He didn't say anything to Johnathan. (@AvidElmV2)
 
Hunter feels a few tears run down her cheeks as she finishes throwing up once all that comes up is bile, so she washes her mouth and her face before drying her hands, flushing the toilet and steps out of the bathroom.


--


Jenna slowly starts to wake and lightly opens her eyes to gaze at Eric's face for a bit before yawning softly and closing her eyes once more.


(@DrTrollinski)
 
".. Hunter--.." Alex stood up and went over and hugged her before pulling her over to the bed so they could both sit on the foot of it. He held her hand tight - he looked tired and deprived of sleep, but that wasn't the matter at hand. His hand was near enough shaking while he held her own. ".. I'm worried, Hunter... I hate to say it, but I really am... This is the second morning in a row, I--.. I don't know..." He gave a sad sigh. (@Soul OMU)


--


Eric plants a gentle kiss on her lips and then slumps down into the bed again, shuffling over onto his back but keeping one arm around her while he just simply lied there - all the alcohol had got to his bladder, but he could wait for a while. He wasn't too desperate. He'd taken his shirt off during the night, but his pants were still on. He looked around the room for a few moments while he gently rubbed Jenna's shoulder, hoping he hadn't woken her up when he rolled over.


--


(I don't know if Tom and Scarlet would have shared a room. Yeah, they had the glasses of wine, but seeing as Jenna and Eric are going to organize that date for them, if you want, you could say that they were in separate rooms on the previous night, and then save any of the romantic stuff for the date. It'd be a little more picture perfect that way, but that's up to you :P @Soul OMU, @DrCompton)
 
Hunter sighs softly. "I know... That's why I wanted to go to the pharmacy myself..." She said softly and sadly while holding his hand and looking down.


--


Jenna smiles a bit and slowly opens her eyes to look at him. "Morning..." She said softly while pecking his lips lightly. (@DrTrollinski)
 
".. Look--.. If it--.." He gulped heavily. ".. If it is what we think it is, we--.. We'll find a way to make things work, alright...? I--.. If you want... I can run and get a tester now, and--.. Yeah, I'll bring it back, because--.. Yeah. I don't want to leave Caitlyn alone." He gulped and held her tight before kissing her. (@Soul OMU)


--


"Good morning, beautiful." He smiled and slowly leaned over to gently kiss her again. Oh, teenagers. Don't you just love how they needlessly kiss most the time? ".. How'd you sleep? My bed comfy enough for you?" He asked. (@Soul OMU)
 
Hunter sighs softly and runs a free hand through her hair. "I guess... But I think it would be best if I go and you stay here... I'll be fine I promise..." She said while kissing his cheek lightly before pulling back.


--


Jenna smiles a bit and kisses his cheek. "I slept well... And it was comfy." She said while lacing her fingers with his.


(@DrTrollinski)
 
"Hunter--.." His voice was more upset this time - it was shaking. He looked away as tears formed in his eyes and gave a shaky sigh while softly holding her hand. ".. Surely--.. Surely if that is what we think it is, even if it's only a suspicion... Surely--.. Surely we should at least go through this together, right...?" He said while wiping his eyes with his free hand. ".. Please--.. I've been up all night, and I just want to know... Please." He begged her. (@Soul OMU)


--


"That's good to know." He hugged her tight and smiled as he rested his head against her own, looking around the room once again. He finally heard the toilet flush from the bathroom. Thank god. He might be able to get in there soon. ".. How are you feeling after the drinks? I feel alright, considering we drank that water." He shrugged a little. (@Soul OMU)
 
Hunter nods while holding his hand. "..of course we'll get through it together..." She said softly while looking at their hands.


--


Jenna yawns. "Still tired..." She said softly while rubbing her eye.
 
".. On the upside, Hunter..." He sniffled and hugged her tight, his face in her shoulder. ".. If that is the case, we--.. At least we're in this town, and not out there." He whimpered as he rubbed her back. ".. I love you. I love you so, so much... You know that I'll always be here for you..." He said. Christ. He was close to crying right now. (@Soul OMU)


--


".. Heh... Yeah, drinks do that to you sometimes." He yawned and set his head down on the pillow. Soon enough the door creaked open, and Carl came walking over to the bed - he was sniffling with tears running down his cheeks. Eric looked at him, and then looked at Jenna, and then back at Carl. (@Soul OMU)
 
(The others have gone off to check the neighbors, and you're still on the campsite with Daniel.)


Daniel approached James after a few minutes of wandering around and doing nothing, he had his hands in his pockets and his bow slung over his back. "Hey, James... Do you wanna' help me build something?" He asked quaintly, shrugging. (@The J, @Beowulf - you here?)
 
"Uh, sure. What're you making, a den or something?" James replied to the kid.


James kinda liked the little guy. He was keen to work with everyone else as much as he could, like when he managed to shoot a deer, though of course he did have his limitations - like having to let Connor take it back to camp. He was a good kid.
 
".. Yeah, kinda. I was thinkin' like... A little spy den, or something. By one of the trees near camp. Make it look like a bush, but really, you could sit under it and watch out for stuff." He shrugged and smiled softly. ".. I can try myself, if ya' want... But I'd like the help." He added. (@The J)
