Fighting for life (1D fanfic)

Chapter 10

I wake up and it's still pitch black outside. I turn to the clock and it reads 5:30 am. I quickly get up because management wakes up at 6 and I need to leave before they wake up.

I write Harry a note saying:

Harry,

Going for a run around the town and maybe go eat somewhere also. I love you. Be home soon

Xoxo, Stell

I rush out of the building without any interruptions. It only takes about 10 minutes to get to the town which is so fast for LA. The town looks like it's part of a movie. With big steal walls, on the driveway down to the town there's signs saying WARNING TURN AROUND. It looks like a horror film. I don't get why they have those signs though its not like a zombie will be like oh that sign says turn around, lets turn around. No dumb asses zombies can't read.

Enough about my rant and how stupid people can be. The arrive to the big gate with a lot security with guns. One comes to my window so I roll it down.

He has black glasses on and looks real tough, he clears his throat, "What's your name?"

"Stella Clear."

"are you a zombie?"

"Do I look like a fucking zombie to you?" We both go silent just staring at each other, and I just realized what I just said. "Omg I am so sorry! I've been stressed." He just nods his head and gives a signal to open the gate for me. But really that was offensive... Is he saying that I look like a zombie? I look in the mirror... "Oh my god, I do look like a zombie." I whisper but start laughing because I look hideous.

I really don't know where to go to find Dr. Bob (would you guys be mad if I changed his name? I hate it so much) so I just knock on the door that he snuck me in through.

"Are you looking for someone?" An old lady is behind me whispering.

"Uhm yeah, I'm looking for Dr. Bob. Have you seen him?"

"Come come follow me."

I follow her around the corner to a small little cottage with flowers and beautiful fruit trees. She leads me into the house. There's pictures of her and Dr.Bob holding hands and family photos everywhere.

"Are you Dr.Bob's wife?"

"Yes yes I am. And you must be Stella, the kind young girl helping him right?"

"Yeah that's me." Right when I say that Dr. Bob walks out.

"Hello Stella. I'm surprised I didn't scare you away yesterday." He laughs and pats my back. I give him a small smirk. and when i say a small smirk its nothing but a little curve of the lips. Im still so weirded out from yesterday. But I know hes a really good man because he's doing a good cause.

I saw goodbye to his wife and we head out to the room with all our patients.

"So Dr. Bob-" he cuts me off.

"Please just call me Robby, Ive never like Dr. Bob. I just wanted to sound cool."

"Okay so Robby, why did you choose me to help you with all of this?"

"Honestly I dont know Ive been searching for someone like you and when I saw you I knew it was meant to be." He opens the door to the room and all the zombies start screaming again.

I cover my ears and Robby sees. "Dont worry you'll get used to it one day." he reassures me.

He goes over to inspect the girl my age and I just follow. I look at her and she looks so much better from yesterday.
