It was my turn to do the washing up and the pile was bigger than normal which was very annoying, Tara volunteered to help me though so it was 2x faster. Yesterday I found a fully charged ipod on the side of the road, it was extremely dirty and the screen was smashed but it was just good enough to play songs

'Hey Tara look what I've got' I said throwing it over to her of guard, she managed to catch it with her gloved sopey hands "no way! Does it work?"

'I'm pretty sure! Try play something I havnt heard a song in years' she scrolled through the broken screen and pressed a random song

"Oh my god." Tara started hugging her stomach laughing taking my arms and spinning me around dancing while I desperately tried to figure out the song 'what is this!!'

"Its eminem- HES A RAPPER BUT OF COURSE YOU WONT RECOGNIZE THIS ! ITS FROM 2002"

(Plz this is the only old song I could think of ☠ forgive me)

Tara started singing to the lyrics while I tried dancing around but miserably failed since I couldn't predict the beat

"YOU BETTER LOOSE YOUR SELF IN THE MUSIC THE MOMENT YOU BETTER NEVER LET IT GO! YOU ONLY GOT ONE SHOT DO NOT MISS YOUR CHANCE TO BLOW!"

I started to get into it while we ran around getting soap bubbles in each others hair, flying around the room. I seen Carol walk past the entrance with a stack of bowls smiling but shaking our head at our immaturity

The song finally finished and I was out of breathe using the sink as a resting bench 'Wew, ah okay okay' I huffed getting the rest of my words out 'that was.. um fun' I obviously meant it but I was a bit wobbly after all the moving around "wanna play another o-"

'OH GOD NO ILL PASS OUT!' I cut her of before jumping back onto the floor and actually getting the job of washing the dishes done.

We got about half way through when I seen a plate on the side with a half finished vanilla cake 'Hey Taraaaa' I smirked picking up the plate waving it around temptingly "dont tease me, okay what ever let's eat it" I laughed at the predictable out come and split it in half, we linked arms and fed each other the pieces like immature school girls

Tara instantly spat it out into the bin I tried to ask why but I was to busy shoving cake down my throat 'Wh- why the hell, d- did you do that!' I muffled swallowing the last piece

She wiped her tongue with her sleeve and said "it has strawberry jam In the middle, i hate strawberry jam"

I rolled my eyes at her picky-ness 'We are in a zombie apocalypse, you dont really refuse food yknow? Also ugh you bitch I could of ate that it tasted amazing'

"Yea yea what ever wash the dishes kid" I rolled my eyes once again and we got back to work.

A hour or so had passed and it was done, everything was so clean you could see your face in it. "Well I would say that's a job well done if you ask me"

I sat on the chair putting my feet up and turned to her 'and I would say you are very very right'

*time skip*

The sun was setting and I was saying my good byes getting ready to go to bed, I walked over to Carl who was working on the farm today 'Hows my Farm boy doing? Planting some good tomatoes I hope' he stood up wiping his hands placing a bit of soil on the tip of my nose "yes yes farm boy is doing very well, hows my farm girl doing?" I smirked wiping the dirt of my nose and put my arm around my stomach 'Not to well to be honest, my stomach is really aching I thought it might of just been a cold or cramps but it's getting worse'
Carl frowned and put his arm around me "well that's not good... wanna to go see doctor Carlyle ?" I nodded my head and we walked down the fading streets of Alexandria watching the curtains draw and doors lock

We reached the doctors office knocking on the door. The tall slim man opened the door with a smile taking his rubber gloves of "how can I help you kids?"

"Heyy doc sorry to turn up so late but
y/n says she has a stomach ache could you check it out?" Carl answered for me

"Yes of course of course come in" he said moving aside to bring us in "better safe than sorry eh?" I sat down in the patients chair while I told him my symptoms and he wrote them down, it was strange being back here. The last time I was in this room was when I was shot all that time ago. I was always so healthy

"And last question, do you have any idea what could of caused this?"

I racked my brain trying to think of the solution 'well nothing that sticks out um Oh! I had a piece of vanilla cake today, it might of been out dated'

He pursued his lips standing up and going over to the medical cupboard "well then! That's probably what It is. It doesnt sound to serious so ill just give you some Pepto-Bismol.  It helps with food poisoning and should drown out any stomach pains your feeling" he handed me the small plain white bottle with a helpful smile on his face, he then proceeded to shoo us out telling me to get some rest

'Thank you Dr Carlyle!' Me and Carl simultaneously said waving to him

"No worries and call me Alex, feels more personal yknow? OH and remeber dont take more than 1 every hour"

I nodded and he shut the door, we walked back home put Rose to sleep and I grabbed a glass of water from the kitchen downing a pill. Finally me and Carl headed up stairs falling asleep in each others arms like we normally do.
