We watched the walking dead together. I was now in season two, episode one. The first season only had six episodes.

John informed me more about the characters and their relations. I've met Rick, Glenn, and the people at the campfire.

It was 8:30 when the episode finished. John gave me a quick hug before he left. I turned off the tv, and headed to my room with my phone.

I was about to call Hunter, but then I remembered. I cant.

I huffed and plopped down on my bed. I texted one person I never thought I would have.

To Jordan: Maybe you were right. He's in the hospital. We broke up. I hope your happy!

He almost instantly responded.

From Jordan: told Ya I was right. >:)

To Jordan: why are you so mean to me!

From Jordan: because I can. Goodnight.

I texted Mia. I haven't talked to her in a while.

To Mia: heard the break up.. :/ sorry. but Jordan is being such a jerk to me and I don't know why. oh yeah, Hunters in the hospital.. He's going to die in less than a month.

I laid my phone down. Normally she doesn't text right away, but she will respond.

"Hello?" I heard Johns voice say through the phone. I called him because I need company.

"Please come back.. I need company. I can't sleep, and I'm upset.

"Be there in five." I hung up. I headed back to the living room to wait for him.

The familiar knock sounded on my door. I opened it to see John.

"Hey." I whispered.

"What's wrong?"

"You already know." I mumbled. "sorry for keep going on about the whole situation, but I can't help it."

"Hey, hey, it's fines. Your alright. I don't care that you talk about him, and worry about him. This just shows you truly love him, and you don't want anything to happen. Like I said, I've been here."

I have him a tight, quick hug.

"Thanks John."

"For what?" He smiled down at me.

"For being here when I need you. No one else is."

"Welcome. Thanks for being my friend when I had none." I can't tell if he was joking or not, because he started to laugh.

"Wait? I'm your only friend?"

"Yeah, after he died, I didn't open to anyone else. I just saw you upset and crying out of McDonald's. So I thought maybe this is a time I could use a friend, and so couldn't you."

"Oh, thanks." I smiled sheepishly.

"So what you do for fun?" He asked.

"Well, it depends. Im pretty boring." I smirked.

"How about this." at that he started chasing me around my house. I screamed and laugh. I heard John behind me laughing too. Now this is a kind of friend that isn't boring. I ran into my room and flopped down onto my bed. John can running and at fell on the other side of me. We both laughing, and trying to catch our breaths.

"That was fun." I said once my breathing calmed.

"Yeah." he whispered.

We both just laid there not talking, but staring at my ceiling. It wasn't awkward, probably the most normal silence in a while. I liked it.

My phone buzzed beside me. It read an unknown number.

"Hello?" I answered.

"Jade sims?" A deep man voice said through the phone.

"Y-yes?" I put it on speaker for John to hear.

"I surely can't tell you who I am. But just watch your back. There are people in this world that my seem friendly, and that you can trust. They will make up things, and say things you wanna hear. When you fall for them, or become best friends, they can easily turn on you. Not everyone is who they say they are."

The line went dead.

"W-what was that?" I looked at John in the eyes.

He just shrugged his shoulders.

What did he mean? Was he referring to John? Or Hunter? Mia? Jordan? Derek? Who? And what did he mean that they aren't who they say they are?

"Hey can I just sleep? That really creeped me out." I looked back over to him.

"Sure." He started to get up, but I pushed him down.

"Please stay." I nodded also to show that he can. But behind his eyes they held a panic look.

I flipped to where my back was facing him. I pulled my covers up. A arm wrapped around my waist, and he scooted closer.

My heart beat picked up, and butterflies grew in my stomach. I can't tell if it was a good or bad feeling.
