-Three Days Later -

Nick and Clementine have been walking for hours, they found a house.

They went inside and there were no lurkers.

They decided to look around.

Clementine stays downstairs and Nick goes upstairs.

There were only three rooms.

He goes into one of them, it was a bathroom.

He opens the cabinet and finds some medicine and bandages.

Nick smiled and puts the stuff in his bag.

He goes into another room, it's a bedroom.

He looks inside the drawer and finds two water bottles. He puts the waters in his bag.

“Ain’t nothin’ out there, guys. Trust me, I looked! There's no food. There's no supplies. They picked everything clean. I’m just sayin’ we gotta be sensible about this.”

No supplies? Picked clean? Looks like Luke was wrong about that.

Nick just laughed a little to himself.

“I found some food and blankets down here!” Clementine yelled out to him.

“Ok, I'm just going to finish checking up here!” He said back to her.

He goes into the last room and it was empty, no furniture, nothing.

That's weird…

Nick puts down his bag and sits down on the floor.

He leans up against the wall.

The place was quiet and dark.

He was lost in thought, thinking about the group, sad thoughts and memories.

Everyone was dead and it was his fault.

He cried silently to himself.

-----------------------------------------------------

Nick was hiding what he was feeling from Clementine.

He was sad, depressed.

He was drinking a beer that he found. It was only one but, he needed it.

After he was done drinking it, he threw the empty beer bottle to the wall and it shattered.

He took out his knife, he wanted the pain to go away.

He started cutting his wrists, the blood dripped down onto the floor. He was a bloody mess.

“Nick!”

Nick dropped the knife and looked up, Clem was there.

She ran to him and grabbed his bloody wrists.

“Why did you do this!?”

Nick didn't answer her but, he was starting to tear up.

Clementine hugged him.

“It's okay. It's gonna be okay.” She said to him.

She was trying to give him hope.

Nick looked down “I'm sorry…”

She stops hugging him and looked him in the eyes, she smiles at him.

“It's fine, just...don't do it again...please?”

Nick slowly nods his head.

Clementine runs off for a second and then, comes back. She has a first aid kit in her hands.

She walks back up to him and sits in front of him. She cleans and wraps his wrists.

When she is done, she looks up at him and smiles.

He smiles back at her.

“Thanks, Clem.” He said

Clementine nods her head.
