Paradise Is Overrated!

“Oh my god… What are we going to do?” Bethan panicked. Everyone was crowded in the front of the van just staring at the broken bridge.

“Well…. We can’t get back to base without this bridge, so we’ll have to find a new base.” Jesse said looking out. “Tre.” Tre looked to his side at him. “Take us East.” Tre nodded.

“Wait wait wait, now just wait one fucking minute!” Billie said grabbing the stirring wheel.

“Billie we don’t have a fucking minute! We have to go now. We can’t waste time, the zombies are coming to us!” Jesse said removing his hand from the wheel.

“We can’t just leave everything!” Billie interjected placing his hand back.

“We have no choice! There’s no other way to get to base, besides it’s time for us to move on.” Jesse removed his hand again. Everyone just watched as they ranted back and forth.

“All of our supplies are there Jesse!”

“What do you suggest Billie? Us walk there and climbed that huge cliff? I don’t know about you but I’m not walking anywhere while I have a perfectly working van! Plus Jay can’t do that much traveling in her condition.”

“Hey!” Jay said offended.

“I’m sorry to offend but I know Tre feels the same way.” Everyone looked at Tre.

“Babe, He’s right. I don’t want you to do more than what you did back there. I don’t wanna risk anything happening to the baby, or you.” She looked at him and raised an eyebrow.

“I’m 3 months pregnant and I’ve already whipped more zombie ass than you.” Jay said back.

“I know.. But you need to take it slow. It’s my child too!” Tre said to her with slight puppy dog eyes. She gave him a look showing sympathy.

“You’re right. I’m sorry… I love you.” She said leaning between Jesse and Billie giving him a kiss.

“I love you too babe.” He smiled and they giggled. Billie rolled his eyes.

“Alright! Enough of the lovey dovey stuff, and the arguing! Jesse’s right! There’s no other way, you have to keep moving. We have enough supplies to get us to another town.” Victor said sitting up. He was grasping his shoulder. Everyone looked. JR got behind him with Bethan giving him some support.

“We?!”Billie said startled. “You’re already dead as far as I’m concerned!” He said a bit angry.

“Billie..” Bethan said.

“No! He’s been bit!” He said to her. He looked back down to Victor. “We should just take your backpack and dump you out here!”

“Well you can do that down the road but right now I can get you away from the small shithole town and head you in the direction you need to go!” Billie just stared at Victor. “Now Jesse is right, you kids need to head East.” Victor said sternly.

“Well either way we go, we need to go now!” Destnee said. She was sitting at the very back windows beside Mike.

“Yeah you guys I can see the mob coming!” Mike said turning from the window.

 “Tre, turn this van around!” Victor said.

“Yes sir!” Tre said putting the van in reverse. Jesse sat in the passenger seat. Billie stayed standing partially between them. Tre backed up a bit then threw it in drive.

“Dodge those guys and make that right!”

“Got it!” Tre said concentrating. He weaved the van around the small mob of zombies from the store and took a sharp turn. Jesse rummaged through the dash and pulled out a notepad and pen. He scribbled on the paper to make sure the pen wrote. JR and Bethan still held Victor up while Destinee and Mike were still watching out back. Jay was in front of victor by the side doors. She looked across to Billie and gave him an evil look as he sat down behind Tres seat.
