At 3 pm, we still hadn't stopped for lunch and my bike was running out of gas. We had been on the move for a while now since we couldn't find a safe place to stay for too long. As we get farther out into bumfuck no where, Rick started to notice that the walkers have gathered together into hoards and just walk towards sounds. So as long as he sees a hoard close to anywhere, we don't stop. Food has pretty much become scares, so food isn't easy to keep. Hunting is more impossible then finding food since the walkers have taken to eating all the animals they could get their hands on. Since we moved on we have found a lot of canned food that doesn't go bad in cars, stores, houses and even barns. I signaled the truck ahead of me to pull over. We were a caravan of 2. A car pulling a trailer and a bike when we found the gas for it and could fill the car tank. Lori, Rick and Carl were in the car, probably singing anything they could remember that used to be on the radio. We had lost a couple through our travels and it was down to us. The car pulled over and I stopped the bike, getting off and walking up to the car window. "I need to put the bike on the trailer."
Rick got out of the car to help me get the bike on the trailer and secured. I went around to the passenger side and slid in next to Carl. Lori smiles at me and Carl was napping. Rick got back in and started driving along again. "When are we gonna stop and heat up some of the beans?"
"In about an hour." Rick said looking back at me. I continued to stare out the window at the passing features. After being caught up in so many hordes on the highway, we had decided it would be smarter to drive through the backwoods. Looking up into the front seat, I saw Lori doing something with her hands and Rick staring out the windshield. There was never much to do, if I could read I would read one of the books in the back. At least I would have something to do. Leaning up to see what Lori was doing, she turned her head to me and gave me a funny look. "What you doing?"
"Reading." She smiled and went back to her book.
"What's it ?" I asked curiously.
"The Silence of The Lambs." She turned to look at me. "Are you going to ask me what it's about next?" I nodded my head and she went on to tell me about it. So a cannibal, man who likes to wear skin and a lot of cops; sounds like fun. Except we are running for cannibal like people who are dead. Lori could go on and on about anything she was reading. Looking over at Rick, I noticed the happy, yet annoyed look on his face.
