Nobody's POV:

      Zach nods and watches Jack walk down the stairs. Zach walks back into her room and sits on the bed.

    "Good thing you're sleeping because then you can't hear this..." he pauses for a moment then says, "I love you beautiful"

     He then gets up and walks out of the room, shutting the door behind him and guards the bedroom.

     Alexis' face goes bright red. He what?! The one time I fake sleep, this happens. I mean why say that...

    "Have you forgotten I can read minds, love?" He says while opening the door.

     Alexis freezes. She clears her throat. "You know if my brother finds out, he's going to be really pissed."

    "I don't care anymore, even though he's a little scary sometimes-"

     Alexis laughs, "I'm going to actually sleep now. Can you come in here for a minute?"

    "I have to make sure you're safe so I'm staying out here all night."

    "Oh shush, locks on doors exist, come in here." Alexis gestures for Zach to come in.

     Zach opens the door and locks it behind him.

    "Can you pass me that glass of water on the table?"

    "Sure!" Zach says smiling

    "Here you go," he says as he places the glass of water on her desk next to her bed.

     Let me sleep now, night Zach. She thinks to herself as she rolls to the side.

    "Goodnight, Alex."

    "And don't go into my room again." says Alexis rolling her eyes.

     Zach laughs a bit and closes the door behind him, guarding the door outside.

     A few hours later, Alexis wakes up to loud bagging.

Alexis' POV:

     What's that noise?

     I get out of bed and I walk to the door. I open it and I see Zach, sitting down and sleeping on the floor. I rolls my eyes and I smile a bit. I quietly and quietly walk out, and i go to the stairs. Half way down the stairs, i can sense that something's off.

     That's odd...oh no, the gate.

     I run outside to see thousands of zombies at the gate and the turret broken. I look at my phone, 3:40...the sun rises at 6:30, we don't have enough time for the sun to burn the zombies...!

     I reaches for my bracelet in my pocket and I put it on. I run up the stairs to the top of the gate and I summon hundreds of flaming knives. I throw them at the zombies. Seeing the zombies on fire brings back dark memories for me. I shutter.

     That should keep them at bay for a while or at least until the morning.

     I walk down the stairs and I walk back inside to go back to sleep. While walking up the stairs i starts to think about Zach.

     How is someone so kind and handsome, sleeping on the floor outside of my bedroom? Doesn't make any sense.

Nobody's POV:

     She walks into her room and sees Zach sitting on her bed.

    "Kind and handsome huh?" Zach smirks.

     Alexis is flustered and her face starts to turn red.

    "U-uh...yeah, get off my bed I need to sleep".

     He gets off her bed and she throws herself onto the bed.

    "Goodnight Zach."

    "Goodnight," he says, chucking a bit as he walks back outside.
