Chapter 8 - Chapter 7: Supplies

Lexi's POV

As Sarah, Sarah's mom, and I finished locking up the house. We decided to board it up as well but not the front door as much. Sarah and I stayed close to each other but her mother didn't find it weird since we were like that all the time. As soon as we finished boarding up the house we heard a scream outside because the scream was close we decided to go upstairs. We soon became hungry and we realized we were a little low on food. We made up a plan to go outside in the night time and do a supply run and we would go to the store but first we needed sleep first.

Sarah's mom said she would sleep on the floor but Sarah and I disagreed and said she had an extra mattress. I asked" Do you want to sleep in the spare room?" She nodded her head as she was already tired and she was sent off to the spare room with blankets and pillows.

Sarah's POV

Lexi and I changed into pajamas and we tried not to take peeks but we couldn't help it. I closed the door and got into bed with Lexi and cuddled her. I gave goodnight kisses and said I loved you to her then I dozed off. We were soon woken up by my mom and she said it was time to go and get supplies. We got up and we decided to bring weapons but we brought light weapons. We decided to go on foot because we wanted to be cautious if these things were attracted by noise.

Lexi's POV

We walked out the back door and went around the house to be cautious. We were only two blocks away from the grocery store when we arrived at the store we could tell stuff was already taken and we walked in we grabbed a grocery cart and went around the store grabbing supplies. We grabbed things like water, food, knifes and many more things. Once we had everything we had three grocery carts to bring home. We were lucky enough to not run into anything on the way home.

Sarah's POV

When we got home we lifted the carts into the house carefully not to make any noise. Once all the carts were in the house we took all the supplies into the pantry. My mom said she was tired but before she went to sleep she took some food with her upstairs and that was the last we heard of her. Lexi and I went upstairs and checked on my mom to if she was asleep and we found her sprawled out on the bed.
