My Life

Part 2

I was very confused as to why he was holding my hand, but I let it slide. I don't know if he is good or bad, I can't tell. See, Brian has a kind smile with a set of gorgeous blue eyes, but he could turn on me at any second, just like that. So, I removed my hand from his and said "What are you doing?" with a kind smile, for reassurance. He looked embarrassed and said "I don't know, just being friendly, I guess. Was I being to friendly, Maddy?" He asked. I just barely got the word "Yes" out when I saw out in the distance a huge swarm of zombies. In this moment my mouth and jaw dropped open and I told Brian to run. But, being a man, Brian didn't listen to me and took off towards the heard. "I knew he would be some type of trouble,"I mumbled to myself and then I had to dart after him too. All I could here was growling and snarling, the zombies were loud. Too loud for my comfort, and I was terrified. I may of been the only one or on my own for a while, but that doesn't mean I'm the "Zombie Slayer'' or anything. So, like any normal human, I had fears too. I was scared of being mulled to death. But I was even more scared for Brian's life. So, I started to say "Brian, Brian!" as quiet as I could without the zombies hearing me. But, then I heard somebody say "Who are you!" and it was not Brian. Then, I saw a very pale man, he had red hair and glasses, but a gun at the ready as well. He looked at me and said "Well? Who ARE you!?" in a scared voice. "Calm down, my name is Maddy. Who ARE you?" I ask concerned. "I am Alex. Have you seen another man named Brian by any chance?" he asked. My heart stopped beating right then and there, because it was either kill or be killed right now. But, I was wrong because Alex pushed me out of the way in order to save me from being bitten. He didn't get bitten, but he wasn't far off either. I didn't know what to do anymore, so I said "Yes, he is my friend. But I am looking for him too, he ran off in this direction and now I can't find him either!'' And he just stared at me. Then he said "Well, I need to talk to him. Ill help you find him!" and I was happy. I was happy to get help from another for once, seeing as I always did things on my own. I wish Brian would have given me some food too, other than my knives because I was starving. So, I got my gun out but I only had 30 bullets and there were about 40 or 50 zombies. It was going to be hard to find him. But, before I lost all hope, Alex pulled out a big knife that was about 8 inches long. "Wow! What a knife!" I said. He just smiled. After a minute of observation I heard a horrible scream come from the crowd. "Brian!!!????" Me and Alex screamed. "MADDY!!!!!!" Brian cried. I knew it was him, so I pushed through the crowd and found Brian. He was being attacked, I saw three or four zombies jumping at Brian with their mouth's wide open. I rushed over to him and started stabbing the zombies in the head when Alex joined the party. I completely forgot about Alex, I just ran to save Brian. "Alex?" Brian asked. Alex just peeked over to him as he stabbed the last zombie in the eye and blood gushed every were. "Let's move!! Leave!!!! Come on!!!" I shouted making it clear to escape the area. So, we ran and ran until we were back about half way to the supermarket, and it was just light enough to see figures, not details. We all caught our breath and I exhaled "Brian, What the hell was that? You just can't take off like that!! And do you mind telling me who this Alex guy is?" and they stared at me like I was crazy for not knowing. "Maddy, calm do..." he began but I cut him off because I was infuriated, "Don't tell me to calm down, Brian!!! I am the reason your alive, I just had to save your stupid ass and you cant even explain two things to me????" I explode. By this time my face is burning red hot and i'm angry. They just look at me. "WELL!!!!!" I shout again. "Okay, well me and Alex are brothers by heart. That means we were always there for another and we are best friends. Me and him got separated about four days ago and I thought he was dead....Then I found you. And I ran off because I thought I saw him, and apparently I did. Sorry, Maddy." Brian explained gently. "I finally found you Brian!!" Alex exclaimed. "I know, I missed you too Alex." Brian exhaled. "Who is that?" Alex asked, pointing at me. "My name is Madison, call me Maddy." I say. Brian nods to Alex. "Well, you seem very kind." Alex smiles at me. Was he trying to be nice or make a smart ass comment? I just give him a grunt. Then Brian suggests that we set up camp at the store a few miles back. We all agree and start heading along the way. It is pretty dark now and I can barely see a thing. But, even though i'm mad at Brian, I still like him. It isn't because he is beautiful or anything, it is because...because of what? Maybe because he is a survivor, and one of the only men that has ever been nice to me, other than Nick. Nick was an old man that I would see every evening at the supermarket, he would just sit at a table and read a good book with some coffee. Unfortunately, it was Nate, the a-hole murderer I worked with, who had to kill Nick. I'm happy Nate died, or did he? Anyways, we got to the store and put all our things in a pile on the ground. We found some melted ice in bags and laid on those. But, Brian wanted to lay close to me. I was terrified but happy to, because I knew I would be more protected. I still do not trust Alex. Alex slept a few feet away from us, and we settled in for the night. Just before I drifted off I saw the stores old camera system and monitors, and I was so sleepy that I wasn't thinking straight and wanted to see them work for some reason. But, before I got the chance to see them, I drifted into the painless, joyful slumber.
