Alan rolled his eyes, it would figure even when the world seemed to be ending, Andrew would be flirting, and find a good receptive to it. Not that it mattered to him, if it made Andrew happy, who was he to complain?

Daryl hadn't seemed like much of a talker, so instead Alan sat off to the side, enjoying just a few minutes of down time. Would it be easy enough to get Andrew to head out tomorrow? Hopefully he didn't want to stay here with these people. One had only eyes for Andrew, the other... well it was obvious he wasn't happy. That thought kept him awake far long than he should have been. It felt like hours before he scooted back, leaning against the wall of the barn, hidden in the shadows and closed his eyes. It was easy to become used to sleeping while sitting up, and much safer he felt, since he had an easy time moving quickly if the need arose.

Andrew had chatted away the night before stretching out on the floor, probably closer to Violet than what was needed, and slept quite soundly.

Alan wasn't sure he could even consider what he had just done sleep, but the sunlight that flooded in made him jolt and he was on his feet. Why would she throw open the doors like that? Anything could have been out there and she could have alerted it to their presence.

He grabbed the bag of jerky, gnawing on a piece, before the leaving the barn with it, the four candy bars remaining on the floor. Payment, he supposed, for allowing them shelter for the night. Today they could work on the camper and truck, and hopefully be on their way. Unless it took too long, then they might have to postpone until tomorrow, unless they wanted to drive at night, which wasn't very appealing.

"What's for breakfast?" Andrew grumbled, sitting up and rubbing the sleep from his eyes. He ran his hand through his hair, messing up the short, dark locks. His black t-shirt was covered in dirt and hay from sleeping on the floor, it made him wish he had bothered to grab a blanket from the camper before going to sleep, but he hated to risk wandering in the dark. He didn't see Alan anywhere, he was probably already out trying to fix the truck, as if they were on a strict schedule and needed to leave immediately. All he could was sigh and watch as Violet made breakfast.
