Who Do You Want To Talk With First?

Lilly

You carefully got to your feet and let out a small groan, rubbing the back of your head, the pain of smacking your head against the shelf now all too real. With a small wince, you applied just a bit of pressure, luckily not feeling anything too worrying or even too much pain. You moved your hand away and gave your head a small shake, attempting to put your pain in its place before walking forward away from the atm. Carly gave you a small nod of approval as Doug gave a half smile and returned to his watch at the door. You could see Larry sitting on the ground, taking slow calming breaths before occasionally grabbing at his chest.

You took a few more steps forward and were brushed past by Lee; he quickly muttered an apology before kneeling down. You saw him pick up a battery and smirked, "What's that for?"

"Carly was looking for some, she wants to hear what's on the radio," Lee explained, respectfully leaving out the part of Carly not even realizing the batteries were missing from the radio in the first place, "Oh, here, I find a few things to eat. Look's like you could use the food." Lee added on as he handed you an energy bar before turning away and heading back to Carly's side, starting to mess the with radio himself now.

You glanced over to Kenny and his family, thinking about checking in with them for a moment before shaking the idea off, realizing that Duck was still in a bad place and Kenny was going to be overly protective of them in the situation. Before you could even fully spin back around, you heard Lilly's slightly raspy voice, immediately finding it pleasing if not arousing to hear, "Hey, you okay?"

"Fine," You replied while turning and looking at the brown haired woman, "How about your dad?"

"Could be better," Lilly admitted, "Listen, I know you just woke up and everything but-well you know the situation right?"

"Completely, Carly and Doug gave me a run down. I'm just glad nothing broke down into chaos after I got knocked out," You replied while crossing your arms,

"It almost did," Lilly lowly replied before shaking her head, "But it didn't. So we need to keep things moving. Now Lee says he's trying to get into the pharmacy, but so far nothing's happened. I'm not sure how long my Dad has without those pills...can you help me take a look, see if we can't get into the back room ourselves?"

You raised a half brow at Lilly's request, obviously, you could hear the concern in her voice over her father, but another part of you noticed the way she looked at you. The brunette wasn't exactly being inconspicuous when she would occasionally run her eyes up and down your whole body. Now she wanted to bring you to the back room. Still, it could be your imagination, thinking that Lilly might want to try something with you would be...wishful thinking. Not to mention that you had yet to even speak to the others yet.

Help Lilly Or Check In With The Others?
