#24: pick/rome: terrible (zombie apocalypse #5)

                                    

                                          
Summary: Pick, Rome, Porsche, and Emma talk
  "I'm so sorry Emma. That all sounds so terrible." Rome said, reaching over and grabbing Emma's hand. He was currently laying on the couch still recuperating.
  "I would've given up all hope if it wasn't for Porsche." Emma said, smiling sadly.
  Pick had filled in Porsche and Emma on how they'd been surviving the zombie apocalypse. The two of them had then told Pick and Rome how they'd survived so far as well.
  When it had started Porsche had luckily found a safe place which coincidentally was the same place Emma and her brother Eau were at. Porsche and Pick knew Eau since they had been in the same faculty in university. Long story short the location they had been taking refuge in along with a dozen other people ended up becoming breached by a zombie and they had to run. Eau had been bitten protecting Emma and before he'd turned he'd made Porsche promise to keep her safe. Porsche and Emma had then gone off on their own. It didn't take long for both of them to figure out they had something in common and that was the fact both their best friends lived in the same apartment building. They had then decided to head there and see if Pick and Rome were still alive.
  "You two have done a great job surviving off what you have." Porsche said, glancing around.
  "Yeah but we're starting to run low on things." Pick said worriedly.
  "We have some food." Porsche said quickly reaching over for one of the backpacks he'd been carrying and opening it. It was filled with food. "We've been taking what we find in the stores as we made our way here. We didn't know if we'd find you two…alive and even though Emma mentioned Rome had a lot of unperishable food we couldn't take the chance."
  "You two must be exhausted. You should  sleep and rest." Rome said as he tried sitting up but winced causing both Emma and Pick to quickly make him lay back down on the couch. "I'm fine." He reassured them.
  "You looked close to death before I left to go get medicine." Pick said. "Lay down and rest and don't argue."
  "Sorry for worrying you." Rome told Pick.
  "Take care of yourself better or better yet let me know if you're feeling sick right away instead of waiting days." Pick said.
  "I think it's best if we all rest." Porsche said looking at Pick and Rome with interest. "Rome you need to rest to fully recover, Pick you must be drained from going out, Emma and I are definitely tired from traveling on foot for so long."
  "Porsche is right." Emma agreed.
  "Well I can't really get up from the couch so why don't you two take the bedroom." Rome offered looking at Emma and Porsche. "I can't imagine you've slept in a bed in awhile."
  "Are you sure?" Emma asked.
  Rome nodded.
  "What's about Pick?" Porsche asked.
  "I'll stay here with Rome in case he needs anything." Pick said. "You guys go ahead and sleep. You can get yourselves cleaned in the bathroom and I'll get you some clean clothes."
  An hour later Porsche and Emma were fast asleep in the bedroom sharing the bed and Pick was leaning his back against the couch as he watched Rome sleep. He grabbed the journal he'd been writing in and wrote his entry for the day.
