Peace. Love. Zombies.

Chapter 28: 5 Weeks Later

A pair of arms snaked around my waist and a voice whispered in my ear, “Guess who!” I let out a squeal of delight as I spun around and leaped on Eli. My arms squeezed his neck tightly and his arms wrapped aound my waist firmly.

“I missed you!” I beamed.

“I missed you too!” He grinned back. I glaced at his lips and bit my own. I guess Eli got the hint because he smirked and leaned down. He let his soft lips brush against mine and smirked as he pulled away. I got on my toes and cushed his lips with my own. He didn’t object. His lips were like cotton candy, soft and sweet. He held me close to his body as we kissed in our own little world while the people who seemed nonexsistant around us walked  on. His tongue trailed along my bottom lip and I smirked as I pulled back. I sent him a wink before picking up one of his extra bags and greeting the others- Fiona, Carter, Sam, and Vaughn.

“Hey guys,” I said with a small blush. I tackled Fiona and Carter and a hug and they hugged me back. When I let go they made the space between them grow. I looked at them puzzled but moved on. I gave Sam and Vaughn a handshake. “So you guys did bring money, right?” I asked.

“Of course, Gwyn. It’s all in that bag,” Eli said, pointing to the bag in my hand.

“Okay, let’s go,” I said as I led them out of the building with Eli’s arm pulled around my waist.

“Welcome to Japan,” everyone screamed as we walked into the suite. Everyone got to exchange greetings with the newcomers and we all ate a bit of cake while watching some horror movie. Eli’s arm was wrapped around my shoulder and my head laid on his chest. He kissed my forehead.

“Go to sleep, I’ll be here when you wake up,” he smiled.

“But I’m not tired,” I frowned as I fought to keep my eyelids at least halfway open.

“It’s not good to lie,” he said as he kissed my forehead and rocked back and forth in a soothing motion. I groaned.

“Stop, Eli! I want to stay awa--,” I tried to say before more eyes drooped close and, before I knew it, I was fast asleep.

A pair of lips met my forehead and my eyelids flickered open. “Good morning my love,” Eli smiled.

“Good morning my Eli,” I smiled back. He stood up off our spot on the couch and helped me up with him. “What time is it?”

“A little after noon,” Eli smiled. I gasped.

“Really?” I asked. “I thought it was like, 9 AM,” I said.

“Let’s go get some lunch,” Eli grinned again and I grinned back.

“Okay, just let me change real quick,” I said. He let go of my hands I quickly changed into some purple skinny jeans and a black shirt. I slipped on some Converse and was out the door with his hand in mine.

“This is so yummy!” he moaned, his mouth stuffed with the snack we just bought. “What is it?”

“It’s called Lotte Sasha, you pig,” I giggled.

“This stuff is delicious!” he shouted, shoving another piece in his mouth. I giggled.

“Can I have some?” I asked, holding my hand out for the strawberry and chocolate treat. He smirked and grabbed my wrist. “Hey!” He crushed his mouth to mine as I shouted out in surprise from the wrist grab. Chocolate and strawberry filled my mouth as he pushed the Lotte Sasha into my mouth with his tongue. It rode along my lip before retreating back into its own mouth and the mouth was pulled away from mine. I stood there stupified, my eyes wide, as Eli just smirked down at me. What the hell was that? He’s never done that before!
