The Apocalypse (Josh McClorey and Pete O'Hanlon/The Strypes Fanfiction)

Chapter 4

Estelle's P.O.V.

I linked my arm with Pete's as I saw Amy looking at me and I gave her a smile.

"Do you think she's going to make it?" Pete asked me with a concerned look on his face.

"If we get to the research lab in time, yeah." I replied. "Mimi's been through a lot, she's tough as fuck. She'd even chop off her arm if she had to."

I looked at her and saw that she was arguing about something with Josh, again. She had to take care of herself for so long, that she didn't want to accept any help.

"So uh did you get grab some weapons?" I asked Pete and Ross, who was walking next to us now. "Please tell me you did."

"Yeah no worries." Pete stated.

"I didn't." Ross mumbled. "Sorry."

I rolled my eyes and had to keep myself from falling out to him. "Okay Ross, no offense but why the fuck did you not get something? The world is practically going down by zombies."

He shrugged, "I said I was sorry."

"Sorry isn't going to save your perky little ass." Amy yelled.

Josh stopped walking, "He said he was sorry Amy."

"I know but he's gonna die if he keeps doing stupid shit like that." She snapped back.

"Here they go again." Evan sighed as he walked by them and headed towards the main road.

"I swear he's gonna get us all killed!" Amy said and I saw her face getting angry.

I walked up to her and Josh and got in between them, "Okay, stop. We're not solving anything by arguing."

I grabbed a spare knife that I had and pushed it into Ross' hands. "Problem solved."

"He probably doesn't know how to use it." Amy mumbled and Josh gave her a look.

"Just stab shit with it." Pete stated as he walked by Ross and smirked.

"I'll take her for a while." I said to Josh as I put my arm around her. Josh let us go first and he walked behind us.

"Why did you do that?" Amy asked a little irritated.

"Because I know you." I chuckled, "You're in a love-hate relationship with that guy."

"Am not." Amy snapped back.

"Are too." I said, "You only argue with guys you like."

Amy gave me an angry look, "Shut up."

We were finally on the main road and had some view. The buildings on our right were practically gone and the bridge we had to cross looked like it wasn't going to hold us.

"What do we do now?" Ross asked as he turned to the rest of the group.

"We go on." I said.

"Amy, what's wrong?" Josh said and I quickly took a look at her. She was sweating and felt realy warm.

"Shit, the virus is spreading." Evan stated. "It won't take much longer before she passes out."

"How long?" Josh asked.

"About an hour."

"What happens after she passes out?" I asked, even though I really didn't want to hear the answer.

"Not sure, I've never seen it." Evan said, Anything could happen."

Josh took Amy from me again and continued following Evan and Ross, who were in front of them.

"Why didn't I stop her from running away?" I sobbed a little.

Pete put his arm around my shoulder and pulled me closer, "Hey it's not your fault, okay?"

"She got bitten because of me. She didn't want you guys here and I did." I sniffed. "It is my fault."

"We were the dumbasses that followed you." Pete stated, "It's our fault. Not yours."

"She's going to survive this, okay?" Josh said as he turned his head a little, "We are going to get this cure and she is fucking going to survive this."

He tightened is grip and kept walking.

About an hour and a half later, we decided to take a quick stop and I rushed over to Amy to see how she was doing.

"Amy?' I asked as I felt her forehead. It wasn't as warm as it used to be.

"Elle? What's up?" she smiled.

My eyes widened, "Evan! She didn't pass out and she's not feeling that warm anymore!"
