Bite Me

Chapter Five

SILAS POV :)

(Mature scenes)

"You're acting a little too excited to go to the store, Scarlett." Harvey announced while walking with a hammer in his hand. He has a worried smile on his face, I don't blame him though. It's like going out into the apocalypse with a psychopath.

"It's not everyday that you go hunt zombies!" Scarlett skipped along the dirt road with her screwdriver tight in her grasp.

"We're not hunting zombies, we're grabbing supplies." I say rolling my eyes. I'm armed with a baseball bat.

"Blah, blah, same stuff. Anyways, it's like a little field trip with you boys!" She hooks her arms with Harvey and I.

"How in hell is this a field trip?" I ask, trying to pry her off of me.

"We should sing some songs to lighten Silas's mood!" She bites at my hand to stop me from pushing her.

"That sounds absolutely horrible." I hissed with a small smile on my face. My smile is tinted with annoyance.

"Oh don't be a bore, we can sing your favourite song! 'Party In The USA!'" Scarlett leaned her head on me.

Harvey snickers. "It's more like "Don't Blame Me" by our icon Taylor Swift."

"God, you're so gay." Scarlett laughed at him.

"Yeah? So are you. And bitch you know I'm bisexual." Harvey flicked her on the forehead.

"But you're soo in love with Joe." Scarlett sang while she raised her eyebrows at Harvey.

"Don't read too much into us, she's not ready for a relationship. Plus I don't want to ruin our friendship." Harvey murmured with a tint of pink on his face.

"Dude, it's obvious. We're not reading into anything." I tease him.

"Okay, enough with this conversation please." Harvey uses his hand to cover his face. He gets flustered so easily, it's hard not to poke fun at him.

We're walking along a long stretch of dirt roads. Country county won't have any stores for at least another twenty five minutes so I have to listen to these nerds mumble nonsense.

Scarlett tightens her grip on my arm. "How about you Siley Wiley? Any romantic feelings about our wife Aurora?"

God, I will throw her in the ditch in a minute. "I'll hope for your sake you didn't call me that, and no." I roll my eyes. Aurora is a sweet girl, just a bit too sweet.

"Aww come on! You don't have to hide your little crush from your besties. Spill the beans!" Scarlett looks up at me with hope in her eyes.

I sigh. "You're right, I'm sorry. I am madly in love with her, but I don't think she'd ever want a guy like me." I say looking down at my feet as we walk.

"What? Dude, what?" Harvey sounded so stunned, so much so that he tripped on Scarlett's shoe and tripped them both.

 I looked down at them both, Scarlett rubbed her knee which she scraped on the rubble, and Harvey rubbed his wrist. "Dude I was fucking with you." I laugh and help Scarlett off the ground, confirming that she was okay. 

"Not even funny, you made my heart skip a beat." Harvey stood off the ground and wiped dirt off of his pants.

"It was a little funny, no. Aurora and I are unlikely friends." I say letting go of Scarlett.

"After my fall and scraping my sexy knee, you could've given me a little hope for my ship." Scarlett gave me a pained look.

"Your ship?" I asked, confused.
