As we arrive at the truck downstairs, Rick and Morales take the front and the rest of us climb in the back storage unit.
Merke takes a seat next to me, while Andrea and Jackie sit across from us.
I can feel the warmth of our thighs touching, and it erupts butterflies in my stomach.
"You excited?" Andrea smirks.
More like nervous.
"Definitely," I smile.
"Everyone will love you," Jackie reassures me. In that moment, I'm thankful for Jackie's comment. It gives me a sense of comfort. It's gonna be different, being a part of a group. I haven't had anyone to watch my back in a long time. Not since Lucas and Julie.
Julie is my older sister. She was always the play-it-safe type. Everyone loved Julie. It didn't bother me. I was just the little rebel of a sister that took more risks. It didn't matter though, no difference between us could ever widdle my love for her away. Her fiance, Luke, is my number one in life, he always will be.
Luke was and still is my best friend. He played the big brother role in my life. Always the overprotective, nosy, pestering big brother. Not to mention good looking.
I can still remember the day we were all seperated. It was only about 2 weeks after the epidemic started. I still have nightmares about Lucas's blonde hair and blue eyes, glittering eith determination, as he fought off biter's beside Julie and I. And Julie's long chesnut hair, and brown eyes desperate to fend off the monsters as well.
That was the day we got seperated. I led the biter's away from them as they fought the stragglers that didn't follow.
I remember running and running until I lost most of them. When i went back, Julie and Lucas were gone, just like that.
I know the dynamic duo is out there somewhere. I just hope one day our paths will cross again. I miss them so god damn much.
I'm jolted out of my memory as the truck comes to a halt.
"Home sweet home," Merle mutters.
I take a deep breath and step out of the van along with the others.
Here we go.
