After Cindy had gotten dressed and got out of the bathroom, she didn't speak a word to Kevin, except for saying a small 'hello'. In Kevin's defense, after she had gotten over his supposed peeping on her she came to realize that the door might have indeed swung open on its own. Added to the fact that all he had seen was her bare back, her temper towards him was non-existent, though she had the trouble of getting over it in her circumstances.

Besides, a man you happen to think of as a friend seeing you half-naked is nothing to get angry about, considering that zombies want to have you for dinner, the waitress thought as she sat at the desk of the small hotel room, the light still brightly lit. Kevin had left the room, for reasons Cindy didn't know why, but if it was because of what had happened she didn't blame him a bit.

What Kevin was doing was having a cigarette down the hall. He had to get his mind off Cindy for the moment. He had scrambled out of the room just as she had gotten out of the bathroom, and in order to avoid what he thought would be an argument he retreated to a dead end near their room.

But not even nicotine could make him forget the fact that he had seen his friend the way he had. No way he'd be able to get that out of his mind anytime soon. Unless a zombie comes out of nowhere, you'll be seeing Cindy's ass for a while. Kevin had gotten a good look, and he was half ashamed of it due to the situation the two were in. He was the responsible one, the police officer, and the one who had to protect the civvies, which included the waitress named Cindy Lennox. Fraternizing could wait until a more peaceful environment could be found.

At least that was his highest hope.

Cindy was still sitting in the chair when Kevin returned. He waved his hand in a passive hello before closing the door quietly. Cindy's guess was that he was trying to avoid making too much noise that could attract zombies, though that was not the case a few minutes ago when there was a ton of screaming on a misunderstanding.

Cindy was eyeing the 9mm pistol on the desk, lightly tapping the metal handle with her finger, like she was contemplating something about it. Kevin personally hoped that Cindy would never have to use that gun, but in all likelihood she would before they'd get out of the city. If they got out that is.

"So, we are going to be leaving here soon?" Cindy asked in a whisper, and she turned to see Kevin lounging on the bed, arms behind his head. He seemed to be relaxing.

Kevin looked over at her, "Once I figure out the best route of here. If I recall, there is a back door that leads into the alley, an alley that was connected to the back of J's Bar. That would be our best bet, though I'm sure we won't be the only ones thinking of using that route. Human or other wise…"

Cindy got up and stood next to the bed, "After all that's happened so far, I wonder who else is still alive."

Kevin sat up, leaning on his elbows, feeling the conversation going into serious territory now. "You have any family here?"

Cindy shook her head, "Parents live in Maryland, what about you?"

"After I graduated from the police academy I moved here by myself."

"You're a single cop? That I didn't know about you," Cindy whispered as she sat down on the edge of the bed, her hands in her lap.

"I can change that if you're interested," Kevin replied with a smile.

Cindy giggled a little, "Nice try."

Kevin gave a light chuckle, "I failed again, huh."

Nonetheless, Kevin's little attempt at flirting was successful at making Cindy smile a little. "We're going to rest here right?"

Kevin nodded once, "just for awhile, I'm thinking with those things out there it's not too good to stay in one spot for very long. Well rest here for a few hours before we move on."

Cindy laid down on the bed, on her back, "You going to stay up and keep watch?"

"Yeah, you sleep. I'll wake you once I think its good to go," Kevin said laying back down, laying his head on some of the pillow there.

Cindy closed her eyes and moved to her side, her front to the cop, "Alright…"

With his gun in his hands, Kevin felt secure enough to close his eyes for a few seconds. He didn't even notice how quickly he had fallen asleep.

A few hours went by before they heard it. A scream not too far where Kevin and Cindy were sleeping, more than likely from outside. Cindy didn't know if it came from outside, but it unnerved her considerably to the point that she curled up a little bit. She found herself unconsciously moving towards Kevin, as the scream got louder for a few seconds. Trying her damnedest in holding back the urge to cry, Cindy felt Kevin's right arm go around her shoulders, pulling her closer to him.

A comforting gesture that Cindy greatly appreciated as the screams died down and not too long after that she fell back asleep.

Kevin, however, did not fall asleep again. He felt that since that scream had happened nearby, it wasn't safe to stay in the hotel much longer.

He'd let Cindy sleep a bit longer, and then it would be time to leave. To try to escape.
