Realistic or Modern The Dead among us

"I'm more of a nurse practitioner, but I do have medical experience and a first aid kit." James said, as he went digging through his bag for his kit.


 
"Well I'm not exactly a doctor, but I was trained in the medical field." James said, while digging through his bag for his first aid kit. "Can I see your hand?"

 

[travelbypages]

Eva looked back at the manand held out her swollen bruised hand. "I heard a crack sound when I hit the dash." She explained and waited patiently for the man to get his first aid kit "whats your names?" She smiled "sorry if I seemed evil at first" she giggled.

 

[Ticci Toby Rogers]

"James, " He said, while opening his kit. "I'd shake hands with you, but..." He looked at the hand, and shook his head. He dug through his kit and found a syringe. "... would you mind me giving you a nerve blocking medicine while I rap your hand?"

 

[travelbypages]

"I dont mind" Eva smiled politely, and closed her eyes. She hated needles but needles were only a few seconds of pain, her hand hurt a lot. So the pain was less thannher hand. "My names Eva and this is my husband Alex" she smiled nodding toward Alex


When James pulled out the needle Emi squealed and covered her eyes "gross!" She directed her attention out the window .

 

[Ticci Toby Rogers]

James tried to be gentle when putting the needle in, which was no small feat in a moving car! "It should go numb in a few seconds..." He said, while taking the needle out of Eva's arm.


Hailey looked at Emi. "What you name?" she asked.

((trying to post something without sounding like beating a dead horse, Rylee Sage and Phillip were on the couch right? How about they go outside for a bit or something? ))

( yea, and sure )

 

[travelbypages]

Eva winced slightly and nodded "okay" she felt a tingling sensation in her hand and felt it go completely numb. She watched what James did.


Emi smiled at the little girl "well, my names Emilee, but you can call me Emi" she shrugged


(I have an irrelevant fear of scissors, and the first time I use them in 11 years ((haven't used them since Preschool when I cut my hand open and got 5 stitches)) I cut my hand open hanging up Christmas lights with tape! Good thing its not deep. Smh)

 

[Ticci Toby Rogers]

James felt the hand, and moved it around so that the bones would line up and heal right. "It's a good thing you went with the needle... you're hand was nearly shattered." He said. He took an Ace bandage out of the kit and began raping it around Eva's hand.


Hailey smiled. "You name pity! I'm Hailey!"

 

[travelbypages]

Eva pinched her lips, she hates the feeling in her hand, "yea...." was all she managed. It felt like her hsnd was alseep... like when you cross your legs for too long and the feeling tingles. That's what it felt like. "Is it almost done?" She raised an eyebrow


Emi smiled brightly "thank you Hailey, but I think your name is prettier" she giggled. "How old are you?"

 

[Rise]

Rylee rummaged through her backpack, taking in her inventory. Hmm, getting low on the ammo... She decided she would go out, perhaps find a better weapon since guns do run out of bullets and a pocketknife requires close encounters with the undead and such, which is quite dangerous. Slipping her gun out of the bag, she got up and slipped her backpack on.


"Well... I'm heading out. See ya." She said as she walked out of the room and out of the house. They wouldn't miss her too much anyway, and she'd do anything to get out of that tense room. She didn't mind if when she returned the group was there or not. Maybe I can finally take a nap.

 

[Ticci Toby Rogers]

"Almost..." James said, pulling a wrist brace out of his bag and sliding it onto Eva's hand. He tightened the brace, and said, "Okay... that's about all I can do... The numbness will go away in a few minutes."


Hailey held up three fingers and said, "I'm two!"

 

[travelbypages]

Eva smiled "thank you!" She sat back straight in her seat and held her hand to her chest. She didn't want to hurt it more. A memory from when Whesley broke his wrist during swimming lessons popped into her mind and she closed her eyes, not wanting to tear up.


Emi giggled and put down one of Haileys fingers, "there, thats two" she smiled "I'm 16" she looked at the little girl

 

[Ticci Toby Rogers]

Hailey looked at her fingers, and touched them with the pointer finger of her other hand. "One... Two!" She said, bouncing in the seat her father had placed her. "Daddy, I'm two!" She waved her fingers in front of James' face.


James smiled and said, "That you are, princess!"


Hailey looked back at Emi. She held out her fingers again and said, "I'm two!"

 

[travelbypages]

(( @Lonelytaco can we do the time skip now?))

 

[Catharsis]

(( Should the whole group be back together now? ))

 

[travelbypages]

((Yeaaa))

 

[Ticci Toby Rogers]

(I'm up for it)

 

[Catharsis]

(( Okay to all that weren't at the house with the fence, you are now and Eva's hand has been repaired. Rylee is also back )


Sage stood outside of Troye's door knocking,


in her hand she held a bottle of water and a half a can of carrots. She tapped her foot impatiently as she looked around the hall.


"Troye if you need it I could always find you some pads and some midol." she said sort of pissed. Alex walked up behind her, "I don't think he'll come out for you if he won't come out for me." he said quietly. Sage sighed pulling out her pocket knife. "Jessica is worried about him." she said rolling her eyes as she stuck her knife into the slit of the lock and turned it. The door knob twisted and Sage pushed, she stepped inside the room to see Troye's surprised face as he stood cocking his head a bit. Sage slammed down Troye's food "Doors open." she yelled as she stomped out. Alex followed closely behind her "Why didn't you just do that in the first place..?"


Troye was surprised to see Sage suddenly stomp into his room like that. He was only confused for a moment before he got up and grabbed the food. The bedroom door stayed open as he ate his food quietly.

Jessica was wandering around the house picking uo her things and shoving them into her bag. She has also grabbed a few blankets and tossed them in the car. She just rolled her eyes at Emi's protests "just grab your bag Emi" she said annoyed. She was happy to have her sister back, but man was she annoying her.


Emi narrowed her eyes at Jessica and threw her bag I to the car "I know youre pissed. But why?!" She said angrily to her sister.


"Because Emi! I'm so tired of being hurt. We should've just stayed on our own in the first place." Jessica felt tears stinging her eyes, "I'm tired of not being wanted."


Eva heard the two girls arguing outside amd went upstairs to Alex, "uhm... I think two people from your group are about to leave..." she told him quietly.

 

[Catharsis]

"What?" Alex said looking down at his wife. He paused for a moment before walking down the stairs. He saw Jessica grabbing her bags. "Where are you going..?" he said watching her and Emi.


Troye heard someone mention someone leaving. He climbed out of bed, shivering as the cold brushed his shirtless chest. He walked down the stairs slowly. He noticed Eva first. "Hey..." he said silently as he passed her. He came up behind Alex. "Where are you going?" he said watching Jessica.

 

[travelbypages]

Jessica turned her attention from Emi to Alex and then Troye. She just shook her head "We're leaving. I just... can't stay in a place where I am always having to take csre of children." She said, obviously refurring to Troye, "Emi and I have overstayed out welcome..." she felt some tears stream down her cheeks snd she quickly wiped them away.


Emi looked confused, but when she looked at Troye and saw Jessica finally shed some tears, and realization dawned on Emi. Her sister had feelings for Troye.


Eva walked out of the house and stood beside Alex. Watching the scene go down. Then she let out a whistle, "well well Troye, looks like you're even breaking hearts, while theres barely any girls left." Eva said teasingly.

 

[Ticci Toby Rogers]

James held Hailey on his hip, preferring to watch silently. Hailey, on the other hand, pointed at Troye and said, "Bad! No brakie heart! Dat mean!"


"Hailey!" James said in shock.

 

[Catharsis]

Troye looked back at Eva scowling, he got close to her face " Still a whore even in the apocalypse I see.". He backed up walking to Jessica "What children? You don't have to take care of anyone. I take care of you." he said pleading with her. "Odds are better with the group, you and Emi are safe here."


Alex watched the scene play out. After seeing the way Troye approached Eva his face grew hot with anger. As Troye was saying things to Jessica Alex watched from behind. "Maybe you should go with them." Alex said coldly. He wasn't losing Eva again for his prick of a friend. Troye needed to go.

 

[travelbypages]

Eva smirked, "no Alex... its okay" she set her hand on his shoulder "I don't know how im a whore, concidering you're the only man I've slept with since highschool" she kissed his cheek.


Jessica looked at Troye, "all of those people inside. Philip, Sage, Rain... they're kids. And how are you supposed to take care of me. You broke down for hours, you didn't talk to me, and the only sign of life coming from the bedroom you stayed in was when you sat on the bed and it squeaked. What if the house was broken into and I got bit or something, you locked yourself away. You wouldn't know." She shook her head and covered her face.


Emi burst out laughing at Haileys comment and she walked over, "your daughter is good at lightening the mood a bit" she tickled Hailey and smiled.
