Fear The Walking Dead (Nick Love Story)

Aneta

We get into the house as the neighbor and front stairs talking to Travis and Madison. I think it's Mrs. Cruz. Obviously she doesn't know what's going on since she's throwing a party for her children.

"Hey, I'm gonna search the house to find something." I call out to Nick as I head to Madison and Travis bed room. I head him mumble an ok.

I climb up the stairs and head straight to their bedroom. I look in their dresser drawers under their bed. I look into the bathroom, under the cabinets and in through the mirror cabinet, empty. Where did they hide their stuff? I look into Travis's drawers but found nothing. I went to Nicks room and searches under his mattress where he normally keeps the shit but only used needles. Damn. Aneta must have something. My craving for drugs to my body was getting worse. I have to search for something quick. Maybe if I go to Aneta's she will still have my stash.

I walk back into the living room and see Nick laying on the couch. He looked worse then earlier.

"Find anything?" He breaths out.

"Nothing." I sighed sitting at his feet. I bend over and rest my head into my hands.

"Listen, if we get to Aneta's I can get some stuff there. I know she has some stash, just in case." He sits up and rubs my back.

"Sounds like a plan. Soon I won't be able to travel if I don't get something in me." He kisses my shoulder.

"Were going to get some stuff. Don't worry." He kisses my neck then move to my lips. We stop kissing as Madison walks in with Travis following behind her.

"Bree, Travis is driving to get Liza and Chris. You wanna go ahead and get Aneta?"

"Yea that's fine." I nod my head but Nick shook his.

"You all won't fit in the truck."

"The truck bed?" Madison suggested.

"Travis can drop me off at Aneta's. We can drive back in her car. While Travis picks up Chris and Liza. Less drama and more room." I shrug my shoulders.

"That sounds good. Sounds great." Travis and Madison get up and walk outside.

"Just be safe." Nick rest his forehead on mine as his hand grabs the side of my face.

"Promise." I kiss him one last time. I head out side and get into the truck waiting for Travis.

"Call me if you're gonna be longer."

"If I'm longer, go without me. I'll catch up." They gave each other kisses and we drove off. Travis repeatedly called Chris and Liza. But no one would pick up. Finally he calls Liza's cell phone and she picks up.

"I'm on my way over. Is Chris home from school? Look, I'll explain there. Something's happened. I'll explain when I get there, okay? Liza, Jesus. Is Chris home? You're not listening to me. Can you just please call him? Call him, tell him to get his ass home. Now, Liza!" He violently hangs up the phone causing me to flinch.

"Im sorry." He sighs rubbing his temple with his left hand as he drives with his right driving.

"Its alright. Go ahead and turn up here." I nod my head at the on coming street.

"Down this street?" He points his finger.

"Yeah this one. Should be on the house on the left." I get ready to get out as he pulls up at the old house. Aneta's car was parked in the drive way.

"Alright. You gonna be ok?" Travis looks at me.

"Yeah, if you get a hold of Madison and them tell them I will be back soon." I climb out of the truck and shut the door.

"I will. Hurry back to them." Travis pulls out of the driveway and heads to Chris and Liza. I climb up the steps to Aneta's house. All the lights are out. Seems like she's home with her car parked out front but not in the house. I go to the door and turn the handle, it's unlocked. Aneta has a funny thing about security. She has an alarm system, 5 bolt locks and a chain. The neighborhood she lives in isn't the safest one. With all those locks and security she has and none of them are on at the moment questions me.

I go inside the house and shut it until after the lights on. Everything was nice and neat put together. I walk into the living room the TV was still on the news. The remote was on the floor with a couple of magazines. Teen Vogue. Those were her favorite magazine. I go into the kitchen and the refrigerator was left wide open. Milk was all over the floor. Did someone break in and try to rob the milk? Then there was a thud upstairs. I turned hastily to the stairs. I go to the stairs and climb them up one at a time. Each step I took would creek. I finally got to the top and went to the bathroom. Things were all over the floor the shower was still going. I look at the knob as it was turned all the way up to hot but the water was freezing. I turn the shower off and look down the hallway.

My bedroom door was shut. I go down the hallway and stop at her door resting my hand on the knob. Please dear lord let her be in here. I turn the knob letting the door open. Aneta was staring out my window but it wasn't Aneta. I gasped as tears develop in my eyes.

"No, please. Aneta." I whimpered.

I take a step back holding my hand up. Her eyes were foggy blood was dripping out of her wrist. She wobbled her way over to me. I stumble and fall backwards down the stairs landing on my side. My head hits the wooden floor hard. My vision was already blurry from withdrawal and hitting my head made it worse. My breathing was picking up and feeling the need to vomit. This creature that is in Aneta's body comes tumbling down the stairs next to me. What do I do?
