  I stared in disbelief at the suddenly offensive, wounded boy. Parker had been shot, his leg was tangled an a bloody mess, and he looked almost satanic in rage. His hat fell off will the fall, and it obviously hurt his hand too, easy to tell by the way he had it cradeled in his other. His facial expression read 'back off' when he looked at the now unconscious newcomer. But softened when he looked at me again. The boys behind him had the same shocked expression. No one thought he was capable of that. Cody and Zach both looked irritated at him, as if they wanted to do what Parker had just accomplished. I was the first to speak.

  "P-parker?.." I was in the verge of tears. He had saved me, in a wounded position nonetheless. He held his hand out. I took it and he pulled me up. Before he knew, I tackled him into a hug, sobbing quietly. He put his hand on the back of my head and weaved his fingers into my hair. He pulled me closer, nuzzling me into his chest. I've never seen this side of Parker, but I love it.

   Parker's P.O.V.

   I know that boy. Who tried to kill (Y/N). Harry Benet. I hate to say so, but.. I was, once, important to him. He had two sisters. It was a well relationship. We were together for three years. If Liz hadn't died... me and Harry.. would have been brother-in-laws. I hate admitting that. 

  Harry was always a bit... disfunctional. But zombies made it worse. He had a mental breakdown in front of everyone when he found out. He ordered everyone around. He attempted to keep a group. A team. I was In it. But.. It broke in two when Jane, his other sister was bitten. I ran away with Elizabeth and Harry himself. But.. that's when Liz was bit... Harry blamed it on me and I had to escape. So.. after weeks of no one. I found James here. Then Mark came. Then Zach, then Cody. And now, here in my arms is (Y/N). I won't let Harry hurt her, or anyone here, because of me. 

  Before I knew it myself, I was almost silently sobbing along with (Y/N). I heard the crunch of rocks behind me. James approached with a smile. He put on hand on my shoulder, and one on (Y/N)s. "You both did good." He directed his vision to me.. "You managed to take down someone with a bullet wound." He changed his gaze to (Y/N), who was still nuzzled into my chest sobbing quietly. "And you managed to keep us alive." I didn't want him ruining this moment. Whatsoever. "We get it James.." I have a nervous, fake smile, and he backed off to talk to Mark.

  Zachary then stormed up to me and (Y/N). (Y/N) not letting go for anything. Cody followed closely behind. Zachary glared at me evily. The look was shared with Cody. Zachary looked as if he wanted to throw something. And he did. 

   It happened so suddenly. Zachary grabbed (Y/N) by the neck and threw her to the ground. She let out a little shreik filled with pain. Cody tried to stop him, but Zachary managed to punch me square in the nose. Out of the corner of my eye, I could see (Y/N) shakily stand. I smiled at her strength. Zachary was about to punch again so I rolled to the side and out of the way, which resulted in him punching a rock. 

  I quickly shot up from the ground and ran over to (Y/N). I grabbed her by the hand and ran toward the forest. Cody followed with his bat and (Y/N)s machete. We ran past Zachary, holding his fist in pain and swearing. We ran past the fences which were sparking with electricity. We ran untill (Y/N) fell. And Cody became out of breath.
