Harry: <:) ... Y'know... Thanks for everything.

meanwhile

Walter: *Finds a pink shirt for Harry, among other things* X3

Key: <:) ... I could say the same for you, Y'know. I wouldn't have made it without you.

meanwhile

Mia: *spots the pink shirt, and snickers* You done yet?

Harry: Nah... I bet you could kick a decent amount of @$$ without me. <:P

meanwhile

Walter: Yep, yep I'd say I'm quite done. XP

Key: *nuzzles into his shoulder* I doubt that... we kick more @$$ together anyway...

meanwhile

Mia: Let's get back, then. :P

Harry: ... We do. <:) *He kisses her head*

meanwhile

Walter: Good idea! I wonder if Mister Rick Huntings is awake yet. :P

Key: *hugs him tightly, feeling very much safe with him*

meanwhile

Mia: Well, we'll see. :P I'm more curious about Key and Harry, though. ;P

Harry: *Hugs her just as tightly, happy, happier than he's been in a long time*

meanwhile

Walter: Think they might be doing it? :P

Key: *lays there in bed with him, mind at ease. they were safe. after weeks of running and struggling to survive, they were finally safe...*

meanwhile

Mia: I dunno, that's why I'm curious. You can seriously never tell with them. XP

Harry: *He starts rubbing her back again, thinking the same thing as Key* ... We never have to worry again.

meanwhile

Walter: I hope they are, not to sound like a perv. :P

Key: *sighs* Mhmm... Nothing to worry 'bout but each other...

meanwhile

Mia: No, I agree with you! You can practically SEE the tension between them, they just have to get rid of it. <:P

Harry: *Still rubbing Key's back* ... I'm okay with that. XP

meanwhile

Walter: Well, that's the problem. <:P

Key: *laughs a bit* Yep... *kisses his shoulder*

meanwhile

Mia: Ugh. It's like watching a soap opera, WILL THEY OR WON'T THEY, UUUGH.

Harry: *Nuzzles her, holding one of her hands with his own*

meanwhile

Walter: Hahaha, at least we have each other. XD

Key: *nuzzles him back, squeezing his hand*

meanwhile

Mia: That we do. XP You know, we never got around to breaking in that bed, huh? ;)

Harry: *Smiles when she does this, lying his head down on the pillow again*

meanwhile

Walter: Hah, maybe tonight. If these guys are carrying around some form of alcohol, maybe we can get seriously drunk first. THAT would make it fun.

Key: *happily snuggles against him*

meanwhile

Mia: That would be FANTASTIC actually. I feel like i seriously need a good drink after all the shoot we just went through. :P

Harry: *Snuggles with Key* <3

meanwhile

Walter: No kidding. XP

Key: *snuggles happily*

meanwhile

Mia: Wanna go check and see if we can find something?

up

Harry: *He lies down next to her* <3

meanwhile

Walter: Ohhh no, you're right. D8

Key: *smiles at him, and scoots over towards him, kissing his cheek*

meanwhile

Mia: Ehehe... Well, we may as well take a look anyway. ^^;

Harry: *He kisses Key back* <3

meanwhile

Walter: Well yeeaah. <:P

Key: *snuggles up to him, stretching her arm across his torso and resting her head on his shoulder*

meanwhile

Mia: ...Man, I wished I had thought of that sooner. :I

Harry: *he puts his arm over her, nuzzling her*

meanwhile

Walter: Well, y'know... Too late for that now. Hey, there's the store.

Key: *nuzzles him back* <3

meanwhile

Mia: Oh! Wonderful. Window-shopping, GO.

Harry: *Kisses Key again, this time on the lips*

meanwhile

Walter: *Looks around the store* :/

Key: *happily kisses him back* <3

meanwhile

Mia: *also glances around, picking up a shirt* Hm. Where's the price tag...?

Harry: *Rubs her back, knowing Key enjoys this*

meanwhile

Walter: I don't... See one. :/

Key: *relaxes against him, eyes fluttering closed* Ahhh... <3

meanwhile

Mia: ...Huh. *Waves over at someone who looked like an employee* Excuse me, how much does this cost?

Harry: *Kisses her neck, still rubbing her back*

meanwhile

Employee: It's free. Everything here is.

Walter: ... What. :D

Key: *is very much pleased* Mmm ~<3

meanwhile

Mia: ...Wow, that's convenient. Thank you. :D

Harry: *Kisses Key's jaw, still rubbing her back* :)

meanwhile

Employee: Don't thank me. It's the policy of the entire Safe Zone.

Walter: WHAT. <:'D

Key: *lightly grasps at the front of his shirt, sighing contentedly*

meanwhile

Mia: ... :D

Harry: *He nuzzles her, moving his hand to caress her face* <3

meanwhile

Walter: ... EVERYTHING is free. <:D

Employee: Just take the shirt. Don't make a big fuss about it. :/

Key: *nuzzles him back, feeling warm and happy*

meanwhile

Mia: *nudges Walter* Come on, let's grab some stuff for everyone else too. :P

Harry: *Quietly* I love you, Key.

meanwhile

Walter: Right, right. XD; *Quickly does so*

Key: *whispers back* I love you too.

meanwhile

Mia: *glances around and picks some stuff out for Key*

up

Harry: *Combs his fingers through her hair* ...

meanwhile

Walter: Mmmnevermind, I'd like to explore this place. X3

Key: *shifts around a bit, small smile returning*

meanwhile

Mia: Awww. XP well, OKAY... as long as we find new clothes, too. :P

Harry: *Keeps doing this, seeing that Key enjoys it* :)

meanwhile

Walter: YYEESS.

Key: *sleeps contentedly for a little while longer, until she finally wakes up* mm...?

meanwhile

Mia: WOOOO. Also, remind me that I need to give myself a haircut.

Harry: ... You're a pretty heavy sleeper, you know.

meanwhile

Walter: Will do. XP

Key: *smiles a little* Yeah...? *yawns widely* 'scuse me... guess I was tired...

meanwhile

Mia: :P *kisses him again before getting out of bed, stretching her arms over her head*

Harry: Pretty really tired. <:P

meanwhile

Walter: *Walks over to the door and opens it for Mia* After you ~

Key: Heh... guess so. *sits up and stretches* Mmmmnnnh. You sleep okay?

meanwhile

Mia: *steps out, quietly returning the "thank you," as she wasn't sure whether Rick was awake or not*

Harry: I did. I'd ask if you did too, but I guess you MUST'VE.

meanwhile

Rick: *Snoring on the couch*

Walter: Oop. :/ *He sneaks out with Mia*

Key: *laughs a bit* Well, to answer your question ANYWAY, yes I did. :)

meanwhile

Mia: *quietly shuts the apartment door behind them* Okay, exploration time. c:

Harry: Well good. XP

meanwhile

Walter: Oh boy! :D *Walks out of the apartment building with Mia* First, we need CLOTHES.

Key: I wonder if anyone else is up... <:P

meanwhile

Mia: Yes, definitely. Think we should grab some for everyone else too?

Harry: Maybe. Rick seems to be the type to be up early. At least earlier than Walter and Mia. <:P

meanwhile

Walter: Good idea! Let's get 'Arry something pink. X3

Key: Well, let's check then. <:P *gets out of bed, and cracks the door open. she notices Rick still asleep on the couch* .___.

meanwhile

Mia: Are you kidding? We'd never hear the end of it! <:P

Harry: What? Is he asleep? :/

meanwhile

Walter: Exactly. XP

Key: *quietly shuts the door* Yep. And it's still really quiet, so I assume Mia and Walt are still asleep too. <:P

meanwhile

Mia: Oookay, whatever you say! But if he gets mad, I'm blaming you. :P

Harry: Well, that's more time to ourselves. <:P

meanwhile

Walter: Blame me ALL you want. XP

Key: Seems that way. <:P *flops back on the bed with a sigh*

meanwhile

Mia: Your funeral. XP *keeps an eye out for some kind of clothes shop* ...Oh, I just realized we don't have any money. :I

up

Walter: Goodnight ~ *He closes his eyes and tries sleeping*

meanwhile

Harry: <:) *He lightly rubs her back*

Mia: *does the same--exhausted by the trip, she's out in moments*

meanwhile

Key: Mmm... *lets out a happy, relaxed sigh*

Walter: *Is also asleep quickly*

meanwhile

Harry: *Keeps rubbing Key's back, happy to make her happy*

Key: *hums contentedly, still smiling in her sleep*

Harry: *He keeps this up until he, too, falls asleep*

The Next Morning

Harry: *Still asleep*

meanwhile

Walter: *Also asleep*

Key: *asleep*

meanwhile

Mia: *is awake, exposed burns feeling a little sore, but so much better than before. she stays snuggled up against Walter*

Harry: *Waking up* Mmf...

meanwhile

Walter: *Very asleep*

Key: *asleep*

meanwhile

Mia: ... *watches Walter sleep for a little while, a small smile on her face. knowing they were finally safe... it made her feel warm inside*

Harry: *He smiles at Key and kisses her shoulder*

meanwhile

Walter: *Waking up* Mhrm...?

Key: Mmm... <3 *smiles in her sleep*

meanwhile

Mia: ! <:) *kisses him* Good morning...

Harry: *Caresses her cheek from behind* <:)

meanwhile

Walter: *Kisses back a little, smiling* Morning ~

Key: *was exhausted enough not to wake up from this--she sleeps happily*

meanwhile

Mia: Sleep well? <:P

Harry: *He gets up to go get his Prozac and take one*

meanwhile

Walter: INCREDIBLY, thank you. How about you? X3

Key: *sleeps*

meanwhile

Mia: Wonderfully. X3 I could stay in this bed foreverrr...

Harry: *After taking his pill, he sits down on the bed, next to Key*

meanwhile

Walter: Then let's do just that. X3

Key: *sleeps*

meanwhile

Mia: Yaaay... <3 *snuggles right back into him, nuzzling into his neck*

Harry: *Watches her* ...

meanwhile

Walter: XP *Nuzzles her*

Key: *sleeps*

meanwhile

Mia: *kisses his neck* <3

up

Harry: ...Alright... <:/

Walter: <:P

Rick: Is Key done yet? XC

Key: *from the bathroom, apparently having heard Rick's complaint* ALMOST!

Mia: Oh, convenient. :P

Rick: If she heard THAT, what ELSE did she hear? XP

Harry: !!!!????

Walter: Haha, relax, 'Arry. XD

Key: *comes out of the bathroom, drying her hair off with a towel* What was who talking about?

Mia: Oh, nothing. :P Who's next?

Harry: I'll go. *He enters the bathroom*

Rick: Well FINE then. XC

Walter: XD

Mia: Heheh. You'll get your turn, don't worry. :P

Key: *yawns widely* Ahhh, whoops... I think I'm gonna go to bed. <:P I'll see you guys tomorrow... *heads towards her and Harry's room*

Mia: 'Night! :P

Rick: Don't let the zombies bite ~

Walter: Hah, what.

Harry: *Showering*

Key: 8C *goes into the room*

Mia: If she doesn't get any sleep, I blame you. <:P

Rick: Maybe she SHOULDN'T get any sleep considering what Harry's thinking. XP

Walter: HAHA! Okay. XD

Harry: *Showering*

Mia: Well, I guess you're right. :P Though I think we could all really use a good rest at this point. XP

Walter: Well, I'll probably be sleeping like a rock, soo... Yeah. XP

Rick: No kidding.

Harry: *Done showering*

Mia: *hears the shower turn off* Welp. Looks like it's your turn, Rick. *nudges Walter with her elbow* Come on, we should be off to bed too. :P

Walter: Yes, off to bed indeed. XP *he heads into their room and climbs into their bed gleefully*

meanwhile

Harry: *Steps out of the bathroom* ... Kay, your turn. *He heads over into His and Key's room*

Rick: ^^ *Enters the shower*

Mia: *joins him, sliding under the covers just as gleefully as he*

meanwhile

Key: *was apparently tired enough to have fallen asleep already, curled up facing the wall on one side of the bed*

Walter: *Curls up against Mia* <3

meanwhile

Harry: ... *He approaches and enters the bed. After a few minutes, he hesitantly puts his arm over Key*

Mia: *snuggles up to him, hugging him close* <3

meanwhile

Key: mm... *smiles a little, then scoots back, snuggling closer to him*

Walter: *Hugs Mia back, happy* <3

Meanwhile

Harry: *Smiles from this. He keeps his arm there*

Mia: *nuzzles into his shoulder* Goodniiight... <3

meanwhile

Key: *sleeps contentedly*

up

Harry: Oh my god, stop. DX

Walter: We KNOW you want to do it with Key, 'Arry... You just don't want to UPSET her. <:P

Harry; ... >////>;;;

Rick: ^^;;;;

Mia: Look, now that we know we're gonna live, you can take it slow. You're sharing a room and a bed, so it's bound to happen eventually. :P

Harry: ... >////////////////>;;;;

Rick: Poor guy. XD

Walter: Hah, yeah. XD

Mia: Awww, you'll be fiiine. ;P As long as you don't force anything, you'll have nothing to worry about. :P

Harry: Stop. X////////C

Walter: She's not teasing, she's telling the truth. <:P

Rick: XDD;

Mia: There, see? I have backup. :P

Harry: You've ALWAYS had backup. XC

Walter: XD

Rick: ^^;

Mia: It's because I'm not wrong. ;P

Harry: You're VERY wrong. XC

Walter: XD

Rick: XD;

Mia: Am I? Do enlighten me. :P

Harry: I-I have EVERYTHING to worry about here -- I don't -- I can't do anything with her. >/////////>

Rick: Well that's ridiculous. :/

Walter: ^^;

Mia: And why, exactly, would that be? If she's ever willing, then what's holding you back?

Harry: I'll mess up. I'll probably do something stupid and ruin everything.

Walter: Well THAT'S not how love works.

Rick: <:P

Mia: You can't really "mess up" with these kinds of things, Harry. It's either you do or you don't! And if you don't, well, there's always next time. It's not a one-shot deal. <:P

Harry: It is for ME. I don't even know HOW Key can stand me. I feel like I just need to frack up ONCE for it to be over between us.

Walter: She won't leave you because you maybe can't do it right (if that's what you're saying). She loves you. <:/

Rick: *Nods* <:/

Mia: If you ask me, Key is nowhere NEAR the type to walk out on someone for something like that. <:/

Harry: ... You sure?

Walter: Why doubt her? <:/

Rick: :/

Mia: Hey, I lived with that girl for almost a year. I'd like to think I know her well enough to tell you that.

up

Walter: *Nuzzles Mia back, feeling quite warm*

Mia: *lingers there for a little while, then kisses his cheek and pulls away* I think it's time we let everyone else take a turn, before someone comes knocking. ;P *steps out of the tub, and grabs a towel, wrapping it around herself before offering Walter one*

Walter: Good idea, Ducky. *He then takes the towel and dries himself off after stepping out of the tub*

Mia: *dries herself off, then picks up her clothes and puts them back on* Ick. We're gonna have to see if we can find some new clothes tomorrow. :I

Walter: Oh yes, definitely. DX *He puts his own clothes back on* XC

Mia: *dries off her hair, again noticing the burnt ends* Hm. I think I'll be needing a pair of scissors too. :P

Walter: I'm sure there's scissors here. :P

Mia: Good point. *sets the towel back on the rack, then makes sure Walter's fully dressed before opening the door back out*

Key: *looks up from where she was dozing off on the cough* AH! Finally. :P

Walter: Sorry, sorry. ^^; Oh, Mia, do you need to be re-bandaged? <:/

Harry: :/

Rick: :/

Mia: *looks at the burns on her arm, lightly touching them with her other hand--she smiles a bit* ...I think they'll be fine.

Key: ... :)

Walter: *He smiles warmly at this, happy to see Mia more comfortable with herself*

Harry: :/

Rick: :)

Mia: *quickly changes the topic* Okay, who's next? :P

Key: *quickly stands up* Me. o___o *quickly ducks into the bathroom, quietly shutting the door*

Mia: *snorts* SOMEONE's eager. *to Harry* How come you aren't in there with her? ;P

Harry: ... Speaking of EAGER. >:/

Walter: Hah! She has a point, though.

Rick: Leave him alone, you two. XP

Mia: Relax, we're just pulling your leg. <:P

Harry: Hmph. XC

Walter: Don't be grumpy again, 'Arry! I like it when you're HAPPY!

Rick: XD

Mia: Yes, Happy Harry is a good Harry. c:

Harry: Yeah, well, eh. XC

Walter: ^^;

Rick: XD;

Mia: Well, you'll be happy again soon enough, right? *nudges him with her elbow* Gettin' a room to yourself and everything. ;P

up

Walter: *With a grin, he flicks some water at her*

Mia: *flinches away in surprise, then pouts, and splashes him back*

Walter: *Also flinches. He then laughs*

Mia: *also laughs, then grins. she looks around for the soap, and reaches over to grab it* Okay, who gets to be clean first? c:

Walter: You, lucky. :P *He then takes the soap and starts scrubbing her body*

Mia: *wears a grin as he does this, squirming and giggling a bit whenever he hits a ticklish spot* <3

Walter: *He nuzzles her as he does this, still grinning*

Mia: *leans over to kiss him, and uses the distraction to take the soap from him* Your turn. ;P *proceeds to scrub him down with the soap the same way he did with her*

Walter: Hahaha -- Feels nice to be clean, Love ~

Mia: *sighs happily as she cleans him* It sure does~

Walter: Ah! The soap tickles in some areas! ^///^;;

Mia: *sticks her tongue out at him* Relax, I'm almost done. X///P

Walter: Hahah, okay. XD; *He kisses Mia again*

Mia: *kisses him back, setting the soap down and giving him her full attention*

Walter: *Wraps his arms around her, still kissing her*

Mia: *runs her fingers through his hair, kissing him deeply, enjoying their moment of peace*

Walter: I kinda like this not-having-sex thing. Almost as much as sex. Almost. ;D

Mia: Almost. ;) *nuzzles him* <3

up

Walter: Hahah, really. XD *He also starts taking his clothes off*

Mia: *realizes that she's going to have to take the bandages off* Oh. Guh. *carefully begins to do so*

Walter: *He turns the shower on* ^^

Mia: ... *silently removes the bandages from her arm and side, hesitating before removing the ones on her face. she was scared to look in the mirror* ...

Walter: ... Hey. What's wrong? <:/

Mia: ... *turns to face him* How bad do they look? Be honest. <:(

Walter: *He sighs* ... They're not that bad Mia. You need to stop getting so self conscious. I don't care if your whole BODY was burnt beyond repair -- I would still love you anyway. <:/

Mia: *fiddles with the burnt ends of her hair* S'Just a natural response, I guess... I'm sorry.

Walter: Hey... Just... You wanna still have shower sex, or is the mood kinda... dead? <:(

Mia: *smiles a bit* We can if you still want to. Then again, the shower isn't going anywhere as far as I know. <:P

Walter: Well... Maybe we can do something different. <:P *He turns the water on, but plugs the drain*

Mia: *raises an eyebrow, curious*

Walter: *He waits for the tub to fill up, then stops the water and gets in* Join me, won't you? :D

Mia: *grins, and joins him in the tub* Aaaaahhhhh... WOW that water feels nice...

Walter: Mmmhm ~ Nice and warm, too. ^^

Mia: *turns herself around, and sits against him, her back against his chest and her head resting on his shoulder* <3

Walter: *Smiles and kisses her cheek from behind*

Mia: *leans back to nuzzle his cheek* <3

up

Harry: Alright, we'll just... Head to the apartment then.

Walter: ^^

Rick: :D

Claire: Make yourselves comfortable. I'll see you around. :) *salutes them*

Mia: :D *returns the salute*

Key: *does the same* :)

Rick: *Same as the others*

Harry: *Gives an awkward little wave* ^^;

Walter: XD;

Claire: *laughs a little bit, then leaves, headed back to the military base*

Mia: OOOKAY, time to get ourselves a room. c:

Key: Yes please. o___o

Everyone: *Walks over to the front desk in the complex*

Soldier: Yes?

Rick: Yes, hello, we would like apartments please.

Harry: XC

Walter: *shrugs*

Soldier: ... Uh-huh.

Mia: *facepalms* okay. What he was TRYING to say was that we need a place to stay, and we were directed here and told you could help us.

Key: :I

Soldier: ... Right. Will you be staying all together, then?

Harry: ... Uh, that WOULD be better for other survivors, yeah.

Walter: No no no no no! At least let Mia and I have our own room! D8

Rick: :/

Soldier: So which is it?

Key: I think a two room apartment would do. D;

Mia: Yes, what she said. D;

Rick: And you guys can drag up a bed for an old man, right?

Soldier: Yes, sir. *Hands them a key* Apartment B37.

Walter: Thank you!

*they head to it*

Walter: I've never lived in an apartment before! :D

Harry: <:/

Mia: Well, It won't be too much different from any, err... previous arrangements. Heheh.

Key: It's nothing special, I guess. ^^;

Walter: It's OURS, that's what's special! We OWN this place now! We live in it and we're SUPPOSED TO! <:D

Harry: <:/

Rick: Well, I won't be able to sleep here until a bed is brought up. :/

Mia: <:/ *takes Walter's hand, and squeezes it*

Key: I'm pretty sure there should be a couch in there, if that helps. <:/

Walter: <:) *Squeezes Mia's hand back a little*

Rick: ^^

Harry: So... I guess Key and I can take the room to he left of the bathroom. And you guys can take the right?

Walter: Yeah! >:D

Mia: Sounds like a plan! I only have one question...

Key: :/ ?

Mia: ... Who gets the shower first? 8I

Key: ...pffft.

Walter: Us, Mia. ;D

Harry: XC

Rick: Pfft.

Mia: Okay, good. C8

Key: XD;;

Walter: C'mon ~ *Enters the bathroom*

Harry: ... XC

Rick: XD;

Mia: *follows him in, locking the door behind them* Oh my god I've been waiting for this. X) *starts taking clothes off*

up
