"Calum, we need to go on a run." Octavia said lying down, her face was pale.

"No!" I shot up. "You're too sick, Octavia, You're too weak."

"I am not!" she protested. "I'll be fine. It's just to the army cen-"

"No" me and Calum said in unison.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            

Octavia pouted.

"Still a no sis" calum smirked.

*~*

"So this is it?" I asked.

Calum nodded.

We walked through the gates, guns pointed.

There was nothing but army tents for at least half a mile.

This was huge.

We went through multiple tents, collecting things we needed.

"Babe" Calum called from about 2 tents down.

I followed his voice into a small tent, smaller than the others.

"Yes- oh"  I gasped.

There was a boy about our age sitting on the floor clenching his arm.

Oh no.

"He isn't bitten, I checked." Calum promised.

"Then what did he do to his arm?"

I was so confused.

"Dumbass, over here cut it trying to open a can of food."

I looked over at him.

"You're an idiot!" I laughed.

"Yeah, yeah I get it" the boy deadpanned.

I scanned his body. He was a blonde haired, blue eyed.

He was attractive, really, really attractive.. behind Calum of course.

He had black lip ring, black T-Shirt, with a blue flannel, black skinny jeans followed by a pair of black converse.

"Stop checking me out" he teased.

Calum shot him a glare "watch it" he hissed.

The boy put his hands up, mocking surrender.

I rolled my eyes "what's your name, kid"

He raised an eyebrow "kid?"

I twirled my hand, gesturing for him to continue.

"The names Luke!" he chirped "and you are?"

"Alex, that's Calum." I smiled nodding towards Mr Protective.

"So... ya got a camp"

"We do" Calum smiled, looking at me for my consent.

I nodded.

"Wanna come back with us?"

His smile widened.

"C'mon Then!" i shouted, looking back at him.
