Our Strength

Where am I?

[Lexa's pov]

I can feel myself start to wake up. But for some reason, I can't remember how I fell asleep.

As I'm opening my eye I start to notice I'm in a hospital. Did I pass out at work or am I being trafficked for my organs? Those are the only thoughts running through my head. But the more I think the more I start to feel my head hurt. As I try to call out to someone I start to feel my throat is dry. How long have I been asleep?

And where am I?

I mean I can tell this isn't a hospital near my home much less my workplace. Or even in my area. So where am I?

As I try to get my thoughts together and stand up. I have this sudden realization that I've seen this before. Of course, I've never been here so how would this look familiar to me?

I finally make it to my feet and as I'm looking around I find a few doors. So I try to go to the nearest one. As I open the door I see it is not the hallway but a bathroom. I make my way toward the sink and open the faucet. I start to drink the water to stop the dryness that I feel in my throat.

I use the bathroom and go back out to the hospital room. I sit on the bed and try to remember how this could have happened. While waiting for the nurse. I try to remember the back of my head starts to hurt like I had been hit there. So of course I check and there was nothing no blood, no stitches, no wound.

And then it hit me so hard I grip my head with my hands. And I remember I was getting off work. Yeah, I was getting off work. Later than usual due to me having to sign paperwork for a new deal, I was trying to secure for a big company.

Wasn't I in the company's underground parking garage? Right there was someone by my car and as I was turning to call security to escort them out. He called out to me "Wait please I just want to talk" he said. I knew that voice it was my brother-in-law. But why would he be here I thought and so late?

And so I asked him "Why are you here and so late at night? It's already 1:30 am."

"I was hoping to talk to you"

"What about and so late at night? And where's my sister? Does she know you're here? Is she with you?"

"No, she doesn't know I'm here. I couldn't tell her then she'd ask why I'm coming to see you so late."

"Yeah, I'm wondering why you come to see me so late too. And did you wait here the whole time? I stayed working later than usual. So were you just waiting?" I asked confused.

"Yeah, I was waiting. I needed to talk to you. It is honestly really important."

"Okay, what's wrong? I mean if your coming to see me so late and at my company it must be really important." I said concerned.

"Yeah look I'm just gonna say it before I chicken out again. Listen I've been in love with you since high school. And the other day I heard you and my wife talking. About you looking for someone to just sleep with. And I mean I've seen the way you look at me. So I thought we could be together intimately. I mean of course until I divorce your sister" He said with an obsessed look on his face.

"Wait hold on! The way I look at you. I don't even like you. You have no job and you live off the money that I give to my sister. Why would I want to be with you? And secondly, you must have heard us talking about me needing to find someone to marry. Because my father is pursuing me to find someone to have children with." I said angrily.

"But I love you? And I can give you children. I can give you happiness." He said

"No your a loser with no job. And I'm telling my sister what you said tonight."

And as I was turning to go get security my vision went all black. He hit me that piece of shit actually hit me.

Enough thinking about that. I should probably go see where the nurses are at. It's been 10 minutes since I've been awake and nobody has come to check on me. As I make it to the door which I assume leads to the hallway. I open it and I look around and see what looks like a dead body laying there. It looks like it's been there for days.

And again I get this sickening feeling that I've seen this before. I try not to freak out I mean in my line of work I've seen a lot of dead bodies. I mean I've made quite a few myself.

I try to close the door quietly and go back to my bed. And as I'm trying to get all my thoughts together. I start to remember I've seen that body before. Positioned in the same way as well. With the same clothes and everything. And the hallways look the same too.

I start to breathe heavily but I try not to freak out. This can't be. I can't be. So I get up again towards the door. I remember where the body is so I know I have to go a little ahead and start looking in the rooms. Of course, if I'm right I have to be really careful.

I step quickly not even my minding that I don't have shoes on. Then I made it. This is the only other room on this floor besides mine with the door closed. So I open the door slowly. And as I peek my head in I see him laying there in the bed unconscious.

There lays Rick Grimes

Now I'm trying not to panic again. I can't be I'm actually in The Walking Dead. I mean how could I be? This can't be real.

But he's laying there and he hasn't woke up yet. So I know this is real. I might be a few days ahead of when he actually wakes up and the whole show actually begins.

So I close his door and I head back to my room. Go back to sitting on the bed and starts to think of a plan. I mean come on if I am in The Walking Dead I have to survive this.

To be continued
