We leave the store and get in the van. Everyone is here. We stop at a few run down gas stations and see if there is any gas left. Out of 10 gas stations we got almost 6 gallons of gas. Not bad.
We ride on the rode for a while. I'm sitting beside Michael and Alex. Me and Alex were friends before this mess. I've grow close to Michael but he's still annoying. Alex is the lucky one. His mom is here with us. Most our moms died. Or like mine I don't know where she is, or my dad.
I lean my head on Alex's shoulder and he shakes his shoulder for me to move I look up at him and he smiles.
"I was trying to sleep dude." I say smiling at him.
"Oh well." I shake my head.
It starts to become dark outside. We come to a stop near a house. We pull up in the driveway and me and Michael and Alex step out of the car.
We are the strongest ones. Parker was until his sister got bit. She was only 7.
I lead the way and break the lock of the door to open it. Alex shines a flash light for me as I scope the surroundings.
1st floor=Clear
I walk up the stairs. I open the first door to see a biter impelled by the end of a bed. The biter was a little girl. Pigtails falling off of her head and a torn dress.
I walk over to her. Or it. I pull my knife out of my belt loop. I watch her as she tries to reach for my flesh. Biting the air over and over. I pull my knife up and stab it right in the temple. I watch in fall over.
"Lets keep going." I say
"You okay?" Michael asked. He was always worried about me.
"I'm fine lets hurry."
I walk out of the room and go to the next.
Clear.
I open last door and find a bathroom. I see lipsticks and eyeliners and eyeshadows spread across the counter. I walk in the bathroom and it's clear
2nd floor=clear.
"Alex go get the others. Michael stay with me and help me find something to hold the door shut"
Alex walks out and me and Michael start to look around.
"Cara. Are you okay? You can talk to me." Michael says.
"I'm fine dude. I told you I was." I look over at him and grab his hand. We weren't dating but to be in an apocalypse we could do things like that sometimes. I smiled at him. I had feelings for him. Strong ones. But now wasn't the time to worry about *love*
"now let's hurry idiot" I said letting go of his hand and walked out of the bathroom.
I walked downstairs and Michael followed me. I found a couch and pushed it against the door and tied a belt I found around the door knob and something that held the curtains.
"I'll keep watch down here. Me and Michael can take turns. But everyone need a to get checked first."
Alex's mom, Angie,checked everyone to make sure they had no bites or scratches. Parker, Mae, Alex, Daniel, and Cecilia, or as we call her, CC. They were all good. And Everyone but Parker and Mae walked upstairs. They chose downstairs rooms. Michael walked over to me after checking the inventory.
He pulled his shirt over head. He was he only I checked. With the little light there was I could see him walking over to me. He was facing me. His abs. He turned around and I ran my hand over his back to feel any cuts.
"you're okay."
He smiles and lays on the couch which we realized was a pull out couch.
"get on a shirt Michael" I said as I sat on the end of the bed-couch.
"you know you like it" He smirked and chuckled.
I do like it but I rolled my eyes. I took first watch. I looked at him as him chest rose and fell with each breath. He was adorable when he slept. I would've loved to have crawled beside of him and ran my hands through his perfect hair and laid one of my hands on his abs. Oh my gosh.
What am I thinking? We are in the middle of a zombie apocalypse
I watch him as he falls asleep as I take watch.
