Ross' Dream World

Woah. I stand up. My head hurts. I'm in the offices. Wait... I don't work here anymore. Hm. Where is everyone? I walk around for about two minutes. "Pst." I here. "PST." There it is again. "PSSSSTTTTTTTTT!!" I look around.

A hand grabs my arm and pulls me into the Server room. "What th-" the hand covers my mouth. I look at the fimiliar face. Rosalina's! I shove here hand off. "What the hell! Get away-" "Listen, Ross, if you want them to find us keep yelling. But if you want to stay alive, SHUT. UP." She says sternly.

I stand up. "Who?" I wisper. "The flesh-eaters." She looks at me confused. "Where's Max?" I ask. She turns on the light. There's Adam, Red, Barney, Em, and... Max!

The site of my face fills theirs with colour. They all jump up and hug me. Most of them sit down, but Max holds on.

"I'm sooooo sorry, I didn't mean to leave you!" Then he kissed me. "What is going on?" I ask, slightly pulling away.

"Don't you remember?" I'm so confused. "The apocalypse?" Adam says. I shrug. They all look at me like they've seen a ghost. (Haha get it cause my name is Ghost. Lol.)

"Where have you been the past 3 months?" Max says. "Is that when it started?" I ask. "No, that's when we lost you. Or we thought we did. It started over 3 years ago." He said.

I'm still confused. "The same year we got married?" I- do-huh? I look at my hand. The most shiny ring. I step back. (Does anyone else notice that Ross' dreams have been like, really crazy lately?) "Wait... Everyone! Shhhhhhhhhh, their here!" Rosalina says, shoving her back against the door and shutting off the lights. I triped backwards and landed in Max's lap. How did I know it was Max? Because he was stroking my hair and holding me close.

All of a sudden, Rosalina fell backwards and Zombies filled the room. I closed my eyes and all I heard were gun shots. Soon, they slowed to a stop. Adam, Red, Barney, and Rosalina were dead. I was on the floor, Max standing close. Em was in a corner, shaking. Max fell. I jumped to him. He was grabbing his arm. I gently picked his hand off to reveal a bite. NO!

"MAX, NO!" He laughed quietly. I started crying. Really bad. Em grabbed my shoulder. "Come on, Ross, we have to go." She said. I looked up to see her face and hands full of scratches. She was also crying.

"I. Will. Not. Leave. Without. Him." I say, hugging him. "Ross... go... don't worry about me... you and Em Have to survive. Take these." He said, handing me an empty backpack, a water cantine, a dagger, and a gun, with three bullets in it.

"No, Max! I refuse to go!" He started crying too. "Ross, yes you do. The poison has already started to stop my heart, I'm going to turn into one, and if you don't leave, you will too." He says, letting go.

"I don't care!" I say. "You better, because, for all we know, there are no more people in Washington. Please Ross." He says, coughing.

"If I stay, I can be with you, Max." I say, crying even harder. "No! I'm done fighting, go!" He says. Em's waiting. "If you won't let me stay with you, I'll force myself to!" I say, kissing him. I feel the "poison" flooding my mouth.

It's too late to turn back. "ROSS!" Em calls. I barely hear it. I hug Max, close, and the world slowly goes black. For a few minutes, I hear Max's steady breaths. But then no feelings, no sounds.

A shake?

And we are outa' here!

.: Max's POV :.

Finally! Back to the car! I hear Ross crying! I run to the car. He's asleep. I gently shook him awake. He jumps up and hugs me. "I will never leave you for that long EVER again!" I say, hugging him back. "Please don't!" He says, sobbing.

I smile, pulling away and put the gas in the car. I start up the car and turn on the radio. "Here we go!" I say, looking down the long road.

Damn it! That chapter actually made me cry, though. Ok, see you in the next one! And as always, Stay Fresh! Bye!
