Wake the Dead

chapter 3

Hello! So, my power went out a while ago and has been out for like 2 days because it was like monsooning out side! So, all i have been doing is just writing for a while. I'm really excited to write about Fiona's past (with daryl too) and  to show how bad ass she is!! I might skip over somethings that happen in the show too! Enjoy!

"You like the weirdest bands ever" Trey said while i was curled up next to him on the couch as we were listening to music.

Trey has been my best friend since we were kids. He was one of the only people who was there for me when i was struggling. He's the kind of best friend that I love so much as a friend, but then he could be the guy that i marry. We are so comfortable around each other that we dint want to make it awkward by putting labels on it. I mean things have gotten pretty steamy before and he basically is always with me or talking to me, but with him I feel so free and I don't want to ruin that.

"The Used is not weird, Trey. They just aren't mainstream like the bands you like."

"Mainstream? Everybody just likes good music, not this creepy music you listen to, Fi."

Fi, i loves when he calls me Fi. (beginning of Fiona, pronounced like Fee) The only people that call me Fi are my sister, grandpa, Trey, and i think Daryl called me it once.

I smiled, "Creepy? Oh please. They are not creepy."

Trey laughed, "Oh yes they are, they sing about creepy stuff and have creepy pictures all over their albums."

"They sing about love and pain, but the pictures are somethin' else." I laughed realizing he was kinda right. He chuckled too and then went to get my phone to change the song. 

"Uh. Fi, you have a voice mail." Trey handed me the phone and listened to the voice mail, it was from my sister.

It said: "Turn on the news, now. I'm on my way over."

I turned on the TV and it was already on the news channel. It was talking about how everyone should stay inside and to stay away from anyone that is bit or scratched because they will attack you. They also said  that Atlanta is safe for evacuation. "What the hell is going on?" I looked at Trey who looked as worried as i felt.

"I need to get home and get my mom." He said not taking his eyes off the TV.

"Trey, they said to stay inside. What ever the hell is going on, it's bad." I said standing up.

"I need to get my mom!" he yelled, but then his voice got softer, "Your sister is coming to get you and i need my family too, Fi." He walked closer to me.

"Okay. Okay. Be careful and then you come back here and we will get the hell out, alright?" 

"I'll be back." He held my stare. "I'll be back, Fi" he leaned down and kissed my forehead and then walked to the door. 

He looked out the door and didn't see anything so he continued to his car. He opened his door and was about to get in when he stopped and looked at me. Then out of nowhere some person grabbed him and bit deep into his neck. That was not a person, that was one of those things they talked about on the news. "NO! TREY!!" I screamed and ran inside to get a kitchen knife. I ran back out and pushed the thing off Trey. I took the knife and stabbed it right in the heart, nothing happened. I stabbed it and stabbed it until finally i just put the knife right through the top of its head and it went limp. I didn't even think about what i just did to that thing, i just dropped to my knees by Trey who was already on the ground. I started to cry and hold Trey who was barely alive.
