Consumed [Zombie Apocalypse] (Boyxboy)

9.) Escape

~Joe's POV~

"We need to get the hell out of here," I say as I frantically shove as much of my stuff as I possibly can into my suitcase and book bag.

"Bro we can't just leave," My friend, Anthony argues back "They have this place on lockdown."

"Well, we have to try." I snap back as I face him and give him a pleading look. Anthony just stares back at me with his dark brown eyes and refuses to give into my plea.

"Please?" I beg.

He finally gives in with a roll of his eyes "Fine." He threw his hands up in defeat "We can try." He walks over to the small closet near the door of our dorm and grabs his suitcase and starts shoving his stuff into it.

Just as I was finishing my suitcase, there was a quick knock at our door. "Joe, it's me." It was a female voice that sounded panicked.

I rushed over to the door and opened it, to reveal Camila, my girlfriend. She had long brown hair and tan skin. She wore a white t-shirt with black Victoria's Secret leggings and a pair of doe colored ankle boots.

Damn she looked good.

Without even saying anything, she push past me and wheeled her suitcase into my room.

"We need to leave now!" She sounded panicked and I could see fear in her sparkly green eyes.

"Whoa baby," I strut over to her and place both of my hands on her shoulders. "What's the rush?"

"I don't know," she looked uneasy "I saw... things." She averted her eyes away from mine.

"What things?" I question with worry.

Just as she was about to say something Anthony walks out of the bathroom wearing a red hoodie with khakis and a pair of red Air Jordan's, which really brought out his dark mocha skin.

"She was saying something about us needing to leave right now," I inform him as he nods his head in understanding.

"Well, I got all my stuff." He grabs his suitcase and his backpack. "Y'all ready to head?" He asks.

"Yeah I'm good," I assure him. I then turn to Camila who gives me a nod as gestures to her stuff sitting on the floor next to her.

"Then what are we waiting for?" Anthony asks as he opens the door and we step out into the hallway.

I hold the door open for Camila as she exits the room, stuff in tow.

I shut the door quietly behind me, as to not draw any unwanted attention to ourselves; because technically, we're not even supposed to leave our dorms, let alone the campus.

Just as we got to the elevator, we heard an ear shattering scream. I drop my stuff and sprint off to the sound of the commotion. As I was running down the hall, people were opening their doors trying to figure out where the sounds were coming from.

The screams became more desperate and distressed the closer I got to them. Then there were more screams.

Screams of fear echoed throughout the hallway and by this time, everyone was out of their dorms to see what was going on.

I reached the end of the hallway and turned the corner when I saw what all of the commotion was about.

My blood turned to ice and I froze in my spot.

Right in front of me there was a man tearing flesh from a girl who was lying lifeless on the floor. A huge pool of blood stained the once gray carpet around her.

"Hey!" screamed a guy who sounded enraged. "That's my fucking sister you fucking bitch!" There were tears streaming down the tall boy's face. I knew him. He was the quarterback of the football team. Kevin.
