After Nick had kissed Alice it had become quiet in the safe house as Nick bandaged her wounds. It seemed she was deep in thought and Nick was acting like nothing had happened to get her to go to him to seal the deal.

"Ok that should be it princess. I'll change the bandages in a few hours. You should lay down and rest for the time being. I'll keep watch."

Nick was starting to turn away when he felt a hand on his arm. He looked back and saw Alice was softly holding on to his arm and looked up at him. She had something on her mind.

"Hey pretty boy you could just lay with me. The door is secure and I might bleed though the bandages. I don't have the strength right now to be able to take care of myself and if anything happens to me you're fucked."

Nick had a hard time trying not to smirk. He had her on the hook, now it was time to reel her in. She was showing her soft caring side and for someone that lives off of helping others that was perfect for Nick to exploit.

"Oh and why would I want to do that? You assume I'd even want to touch you. You could get blood all over my suit."

"I have my reasons for thinking you might enjoy it. Besides you yourself said you know how to get blood out of a suit."

Alice stood up and got close to him and give him a soft kiss then walked to a room down the hall, opening the door and kept it open just a crack. It was a bit pathetic how easy it was. He didn't hate the women he did like her just not in the way he was showing. She was just a target and he was just a conman. It would never be more than that hopefully.

Nick waited for a few minutes to make it seem like he was hesitating to jump forward into something more serious with her. If he went too soon she might be suspicious or think he just wanted sex, both were not good for Nick. Nick walked down the hall and waited for a few moments again making it seem like he was hesitating then walked in with a soft smile.

"Took you long enough Nick. I was starting to think you were scared."

Nick scoffed and walked over sitting on the edge of the bed taking off him shoes setting them next to hers. He crawled into bed right behind her and softly pulled her into his chest, his chin resting on the top of her head.

"I've only known you for a short amount of time princess but I feel like I've known you for so much longer than that."

Nick rubbed her shoulder softly and kissed her cheek. Alice sighed softly cuddling into him more and smiled. She was beautiful to Nick and being close to her was nice. He did miss being with a women like this but after he was done with her he'd be fine for a while.

"Hmm you know I still think you're a bit of an ass but I guess that's put of your charm."

Alice was starting to nod off and she turned to face his chest. Nick ran his fingers through her brown hair and lifted her chin planting a kiss on her lips. She kissed back sighing wrapping her arms around his neck and nuzzled his neck.

"Why don't you just come with me Nick?"

"Hmmm my group needs me too. You could always come with me. A woman like you doesn't need to be alone."

Alice looked up at him half asleep and shook her head.

"You know I can't. I have something I need to do. But I will miss you Nick."

Alice drifted off in Nick's arms. After a few more days of this she'd be his little puppet. He wasn't sure if he just wanted to rob her blind or convince her to come with him. The choice wasn't as clear cut as it use to be with him. Was she conning him too? Nick pushed that thought out of his head. She wasn't that type of person but he was worried about his desire for her to go with him. That was something he'd have to keep an eye on.

As Nick started drifting off himself the infected were moaning outside. He could hear a smoker coughing and the tank they out ran growling and smashing at the ground. The arm of an infected was reaching through the window growling as Nick fell asleep not realizing he pulled Alice closer to him.

In his sleep he had a dream about Ellis, Rochelle and Coach. They were running from the charger that tried to kill him blood all over its overalls, somehow Nick knew it was his blood. Ellis turned around and shot a few rounds into the monster but before he could run he was jumped by a hunter.

Rochelle was out of ammo and only had a baseball bat. She ran to Ellis trying to save him but was smashed to the ground by the charger. Coach shot the hunter off of Ellis but didn't see the witch next to him. The shots from his gun startled the witch as she ripped into him.

Then out of the blue Alice showed up with her shot gun, she killed the charger and the witch then helped all three of them up. She was in a white dress and on her back there was wing tattoos. He hair was also blond. She smiled softly then a tank threw a boulder crushing her. In Nick's mind that was slightly disturbing him seeing her die. Why did she look like that anyway? He hair looked like it was glowing on her head and the tattoo seemed to flutter and flow like real wings. Maybe it was his hormones talking, it had been a while since he had sex so it could be that. It didn't seem to fit thought. If it was just sex then why feel like that over a dream where Alice dies? Nick just kept telling himself it was sexual no matter how many times the rest of him disagreed. After a bit Nick fell into a deeper sleep.
