"Jackson?" I ask
The man looks at me, with tears in his blue eyes.
"Dani, it is you" he whispers, and runs up to me.
In one swift movement, he picks me off my feet and hugs me tightly.

The tears are streaming down his face now. I am crying as well.

"Where have you been, Jack?" I whisper.
"Looking for you." He replies, his voice wobbling.

Then he sees my leg.
"Dani.... WHAT DID YOU DO TO YOUR LEG!?!?" He yells at me.
"Thanks a lot Jackson, you just killed the moment." I say, annoyed.
"Seriously Dani, it could be infected." He says, annoyed.
"It's fine, Jackson." I plead.
"DANIELLE SOUTH. TELL ME THIS INSTANT WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO YOUR LEG!" He yells, making me quiver.

"Jackson, I have not been the last human alive to my knowledge for 3 f***ing years just to hear you yell at me. My leg is fine!" I scream, storming off.

He just stands there, gob smacked.

(Later that night.)

Great. Just great. After finally finding my boyfriend alive after 3 years, I just scream at him and run away. Real mature, Dani.

God, I'm an idiot.

(JACKSON'S P.O.V:)
I can feel the tears pouring now. I have finally found my girlfriend alive... and I just let her go.
But what bugs me, is the fact that she mentioned being alone for 3 years....
What is she talking about? Humans haven't died out......

I have to find Dani. And I have to find her now.
