-ELLIE'S POV-

-"Yo Dina assignments" Jesse yelled
-"Give me a minute" She yelled back
-" Would you get your girlfriend to the stables please" Jesse said to me smirking
-" Oh my god" I said then left

O walked to the fence where Dina is playing with other kids

-" Hey Dina can I talk to you?" I said
-" Ok guys I'm tapping out" she said then walked towards me
-" Hey" I said
-" Hey" I answered back
-" I just wanted to say sorry for running off last night" I said
-" Oh it's nothing It's just.....I felt bad" she replied
-" Why?" I asked
-" It's because I shouldn't have kissed you infront of all those people and--------" I cut her sentence
-" No it's fine your drunk------" she cut me off
-" No I just didn't want you to think-----" I cut her off
-" No I'm not reading into it or anything" I said
-" You know what I love about you.............How you let me finish ly sentences" she said smiling
-" Ok.....we better get going" I said
-" Yeah" she answered

We went to the stables and got our horses I told her that we're assigned to do the creek trails and Jesse will relieve Tommy and Joel

-" Oh...It's nice he assigned us together ....you're gonna like this route" She said

We walked towards the gate where Jesse and the others are waiting

-" Ahhhh look who decided to join us" Jesse said
-" Yeah yeah" I said
-" One for you....and one for you" he said while giving me and Dina a rifle that we'll use to clear out the infected

-" Alright ya'll know the drill mark your log books clear any infected you see if you can't do it comeback be smart about it" He said

-" Ok open it up" He demanded the two guys

As the gate are opened we rode our horses and got ready to gallop out before that Dina and I shared a quick eye contact and galloped our way out

We're on our way to the first look out when I decided to ask her about

-" Do you miss being with him?" I asked
-" With Jesse....No......I kean Jesse's great I love his parents they will always be family but we're just on auto pilot" she explained
-"Hey how come we never talked about this stuff" I said
-" I don't...I mean ypu never really talked to me about Cat" she said
-" Yeah coz there isn't much to talk about" I said
-" yeow" she replied

Cat's my ex girlfriend we've been together for almost 3 years and we've broken up for almost 2 years Cat is great atleast she gave me a remembrance before we broke up and that's my tattoo the tattoo that hides my bitemark. Everyone in jackson doesn't know about my immunity because me and Joel decided to hide it even Cat and Dina and Jesse doesn't know about it so to hide it even better I put chemical on my bite which triggered it to come out as a chemical burn.

-" Also I got the Impression that you didn't really like her" I said
-" I don't care about her one way or the other" she said
-" Ok" I said sarcasticly
-" But I think she's a talented artist....I've grown to like that tattoo of yours" she said
-" How big of you" I said
-" And I think she wasn't right for you" she added
-" Interesting" I said
-" shut up" she replied

As we talked about that we already reached our first look out we tied our horses inside when Dina told me something

-" Do you wanna see something spectacular" she said
-" let me guess you're gonna point that in your face don't you" I said
-" Ha!.. nothing is that spectacular" she said
-" Ok" I replied
-" Come on stupid" She said

Dina led me to the balcony at the look out the view is beautifully awesome it's breathtaking

-" What do you think of this view huh?" She asked
-" It's wonderful" I said
-" Yeah this route has its perks" she said

Silence roamed over for a minute as we looked at the view and as I turned to her our eyes matched each other it was a long eye contact we shared my heart started pumping out as I can see her brown eyes looking in mine I wanted to kiss but I stopped myself and decided to break the silence

-" So where do we sign in?" I asked
-" Come on" she said and left the balcony

I looked at the view one last time and reminisce about that eye contact "FUCK" I just said to myself then followed her

Dina led me to a hole that's covered with a wooden pallete then after we crouched our way through next we climb a rope and went to the look out
After I signed as in Dina showed me where the next look out is and we immediately got back to the horses

-" Question......are you wearing yhe same clothes from yesterday?" She asked
-" Ughh...they're clean" I said
-" No judgement" she replied
-" It's just It's patrol you know where here to kill infected not to look fancy" I said
-" Still look nice" she said
-" uhmmm thank you" I replied
-" So.....who do you usually do this route with Jesse?" I asked
-" Eugene." She answered
-" Awww right Eugene man he's funny" I said
-" Plus he taught me about electronics and stuff.......may we all be that sharp at 73" she said
-" May we all be that sharo at 73 " I qouted

After that we rode our horses and went to the look out while we're on our way Dina asked if what I was going to do tonight

-" I'm thinking of inviting Joel to watch a movie or maybe I'll just continue to write songs" I said
-" Wait there are original Ellie songs" she said amazed
-" Yeah" I answered
-" play one for me tonight please" she said
-" Sure"

The rest of the way is filled with silence but we managed to get to the look out safely Dina suggests that we stay there for a while since a blizzard is going to occur I agreed but deep inside I got a feeling that something more is going to happen in this look out I just feel it
