Chapter Five: Gloom of the Grave

I stood there in the middle of the road. I looked up at where the bright stars had just been seconds ago then I scan my eyes, taking in my surroundings. We were in the deserted highway now, surrounded by nothing but red dirt and distant mountains. All that open space began to smother me and my chest began to feel tight. Diego squirmed in my arms and Eli held on to my free hand, having them here grounded me in a way.

“What the hell was that?” Aaron ran a hand through his thick curly auburn hair. I blinked, and then turned away. Whatever it was it was gone now.

Eli tugged at my arm, “Maddie, I really need to go number one.” He whispered. I smothered a smile and turned to look for Trevor, I jumped back when I turned and he was right behind me.

“Eli needs to use the potty.” I leaned into Travis, whispering. He gave me a conspiratorial twitch of eyebrows and a smirk. As Eli and Trevor went behind some bushes (Because hey, no modesty in the apocalypse right?), some of the others did the same.

“Am I supposed to just squat?” Lexi sighed and she and Adrie stalked off behind some bushes. I had to pee but I wasn’t ready to go primitive just yet. Diego writhed in my arms again, I looked down at him with a frown; he had slept and eaten, what was wrong now? I searched for momma but I could see the top of her red head behind some bushes. I patted Diego’s bum in a soothing motion, that’s when I felt it; he needed his diaper changed. Oy, I pressed the bridge of my nose between my thumb and index finger. I was about to get a crash course in diaper change. I walked towards the hummer quickly and set Diego down on the passenger seat, after some fumbling I pulled out a new diaper and baby wipes. Biting back groans of eekiness I quickly cleaned Diego (I am proud to say I only gagged twice!) Once he was nice and clean again he gifted me with a gurgling smile and closed his eyes again. I couldn’t help myself from leaning down and kissing his chubby cheeks.

When I leaned away to throw away the dirty diaper I caught Val’s eyes. She was leaning against the Camry, arms folded across her chest glaring at me. What was her problem anyway?

I was so ready to reach Jax. It was a mixture of excitement and something else I couldn’t name. I had only seen Jax a handful of times over the years that we’ve known each other, although we constantly talked to each other via calls, text and video chat apps. What would he think of all these people that were coming with us to his bunker now? I can’t imagine what he’s going through right now, making his way down to me after just having lost Alexa. Fuck.
