"Molli?"he said,head tilting slightly
"If I knew falling off a ladder would attract peoples attention and bring survivors out I'd have done it weeks ago"he joked grinning at her,trying to lighten the mood
Rhys stared at him for a moment then looked back at Molli"Does anything feel broken?"
"I just met her tonight"he said to Lewis"are you sure Molli?what were you doing?"
Rhys climbed down the ladders quickly to check Molli over, he slipped a little but caught himself, he knelt on the ground next to her, looking for broken bones
" Molli?" he said getting up after hearing the scream he moved to the window " Molli!"
Your in just start in the thread whenever ^^
" Uh yeah sure..l" he muttered hastily wiping his face " it's down the hall to the left..." he let himself fall into a kitchen chair after he stumbled against it, he'd probably scared her.. If her mum was an alcoholic and her dad abused her..." I'm not going to hurt you you know" he tried to say but the drink had made his tounge feel heavy and even he heard his words running together
He stared out the window for a moment before turning to her, his clear blue eyes had a glassy look to them, " in fine " he smiled loosely at her " I just get like that sometimes ... Space out when I'm thinking.. Especially when I've been drinking... Ha that rhymes" he laughed. The bottle was next to the sink almost finished. He hadn't lied when hed said he didn't drink much.. But it was strong and he hadn't noticed how much he'd drunk or how much it was affecting him...thinking of his familymade him more sad than he let on... Alcohol numbed his pain
Rhys leanned against the sink heavily
Rhys moved back into the kitchen "well at least I know there are more survivors out there"
"You dont need a to gain a ton of weight...just enough to you know help you keep warm and stuff."he said letting his arm fall back down"I hope it rains soon...as much as alot of people would like to...nobody can live on various alcoholic drinks...Im not even sure it keeps you hydrated..."he shrugged "Theres a spareroom down the hall..."He moved back into the kitchen. This girl kinda acted like she was afraid of him...she probably was...he was a stranger...but he wouldnt hurt her...not unless she turned.
He lowered the bottle from his mouth slowly "How are you still alive? seriously? Shouldnt you try and eat something? or drink something at least?"He said,glancing down at the bottle in his hand,he offered it to her "I dunno if you drink alcohol,I dont always...but the water cut out three days ago...been hoping for rain."
He shrugged "Life goes on I suppose....you want anything to eat or drink? I just got a load of stuff tonight."
"Nothing like yours" He muttered "Came from a good family,was the youngest of three,had an older brother and sister"he smiled weakly "The virius hit and Mum and Dad,well my brother had to protect us...h-he killed them...not before Mum bit him though" Rhys paused to take a large gulp of alcohol then continued "He was fine for a while...he just got angry easy...then he got bit again twice and we realised...he was a cross infected...and the virius was slowly taking him away from us...He told us to go...to run...and when we did I got lost from my sister...lived rough for awhile...that was last year ...found this place a month ago...got no hope of ever finding mysister...or helping my brother...probably dead."he said quietly.His eyes flashed back to her and he took another generous gulp
"So whats your story?"he said leaning against the doorway,the bottle of vodka in his hand "surely its as tragic as everyone elses."
"Almost a month now...I rarely go out at night...sometimes I have others living with me...when they leave to get supplies and I dont get back- Well sometimes Its better not to let people into your life."he said "Im Rhys George"he added heading back into the kitchen after locking the door and checking it throughly
"Go on in"he nodded "Theres some food in the kitchen ...I just collected my weekly shopping "he joked as he looked around for any infected
" it's fine... Alot of survivors come this way .."
" it's getting dark though... Things get worse when it's dark.. Do you want to stay here until it's light?"
