Silent Sniper

Chapter FOURTEEN

They where fooled.
I tried to hold in my laugh, almost failing to do so.

I then turn my body and rest on 10k him, slinging his arm over my shoulder. I close my eyes and then play with the scarf around his neck, twirling my fingers in the rough fabric. He was staring at me with his head tilted. So I started chewing on the inside of my lip. The inside of my mouth was raw for how much I had been chewing on it lately. I stop sigh and lay back.

"Life sucks." I say out loud.

"Nothing to do, everything is trying to kill you, I haven't read a book in a few years, and it's just the worst thing ever." I say to him my legs up and my arms resting on my knees.

I then smiled widely. "Teach me to shoot." I say to him. He looks at me. He smiles a bit. "Maybe tomorrow." He says. It was night time. I nod and close my eyes. All of the sudden I hear sputtering and then the truck came to and abrupt halt.

Great. Car broke down again. It does that a lot doesn't it?

"Outta gas." Warren yells from the front.

I groan. 10k chuckles and I seat him in the chest, and it makes him turn red from holding in his laughter.

I roll my eyes and jump Down. He jumps down after me, but he kinda ticked me off just now. And he was enjoying it.

The irony that I say life sucks, and we just so happen to run out of gas two seconds later. I roll my eyes and walk out, my timid and shy side, taking over again.

When I round the car, I hear yelling and I quickly snap to where it was coming from.

I slowly walk towards it, taking out my cutlass just in case.
I step slowly, and surely, missing every branch and leaf in my way.

I make it to the scene, and a girl was in a tree poking a few zombies in the head......teasing them? I don't know, but I went over and finished them off.

She hopped down and looked at me.

"What's your problem? Can't you see that I was having fun?" She says getting close in a dominate intimidating manner. I swallowed and stuttered out, "i-i- was just t-rying to help you down from the t-tr-ee." I stuttered. I hated that. I quickly backed up and ran into something. I looked back and saw 10k, looking at the girl.

She was very pretty. She had long black hair, with braids all through it, her skin tone was an even tan, her skin flawless. She had curves in all of the right places, and she was feisty. She was apocalypse material. Her style was on point.

She got a look at 10k and smirked a little.
"Now what is his name?" She asks, pointing towards him with the curved blade in her hand.

He rushed I. Front of me and quickly said, "Ten thousand. People call me 10k."

"Well, 10k my name's Tasmin. People call me Taz." She says gripping his hand in a hand shake.

For some reason this hurt. I don't know why. Evan if I had a tiny crush on him, he was still like a brother to me. He still broke my face though.

But I wasn't......anything other than his best friend. He could talk to whoever he wanted to.

I wish my heart agreed with me........

I sighed.

"10k. We need to look for gas." I say tugging his arm timidly. I hate being timid. I was supposed to be tough but......I slammed those memories to the back of my mind.
He was never mine. Never will be.

Never mine. Never will be.

At this point, I wasn't talking about Colton anymore. I shook my head.
