"Her. Her mom?" Lacey asked shocked
"Yes Lace." Brennan replied giving me a "dude I fucked up" look
It was kinda awkward standing there still but I knew he trusted me and needed help.
"Lacey come on you'd make a great mom." I said giving him a look of reassurance
"You would" he added
"I'll do it." Lacey said excited
Brennan looked so happy, as happy as when he found out Jessie was his, he likes her no doubt.
"Guys we should really get to bed" I said looking at them both
"He's right" Brennen said picking up Jessie
"Night" we all said and headed our separate ways
***********
Waking up in the morning was always hell, just knowing all these things were out here made me sick. I always think I'm going to go to sleep and when I wake up everything will be normal ya know? I wish and pray it was all just a dream but I wake up and here I am locked down in this house waiting for the doors to open so I can go out get my supplies and head back to the same thing everyday. I want to explore, I want a better place for Teagan and our kid but the world just doesn't work out that way. My poor kid is gonna grow up alone in this world no friends, education, they're only going to know how to kill these damn fuckers. That isn't the perfect life you'd want for your kid now, and if it is you're one twisted person. I could see the video games and stuff about this but actually living it is the worst. It's the kinda thing where it's good but at the same time it is the worst thing ever because you could also die and well you're alone unless you have friends, but once they die and you're here alone then its bad again. Sometimes you really gotta take in all the beauties of the world because look what can happen to it, it can become literal hell on earth and you could end up alone. I know for sure if I was alone here I wouldn't make it very far let alone an hour I would lose my mind without having the people that are here now. I know I know "blah blah Axel i'm here for zombies not sappy tales." well this isn't your adventure now s it? No it's mine.
"Axel...." I hear Teagan behind me
"Yes?"
"Who are you talking to?" She asks
"Oh um, how long have you been there?" I ask rubbing my neck
"Just walked in" She says looking at me like I'm a crazy person
"Myself. I was talking to myself." I said nodding
"Well okay then" she replied with a giggle "We're waiting for you downstairs" and with that she left
Breakfast wasn't really all that just the same old thing, scarfed down my food then went and got my equipment ready. For being in the position i'm in I am in pretty good shape, I really got it together wake up earlier then the whole team, workout, shower, eat, then head out and get my supplies. I really have to start getting stuff for the baby, I don't want to not be prepared. I'm very glad Lacey went to medical school cause if not we would be screwed trying to get this kid into the world. She is due in a month and I know neither me or her are ready for this kid, I mean who would be in our situation? It's not like we have had much practice we're kinda in a life or death thing going here. Being in a situation like this really brings out the best in people because it's either step up or die, now some people might be okay with that last one but me, yeah I won't stand for that. Unless it was a me dying for someone else then I wouldn't have a problem depending on who it was it's just who I am. I just want this all to be over I'm tired of always worrying about walking out my door and getting killed or one of my friends getting killed. I'm sitting here getting ready for my supply run and I hear a bunch of screaming outside so I grab my gun and run out to see Kipp laying on the ground scratched up my instant reaction is to yell for the crew and search for the thing that did this. I don't see anything but Zarah which really makes me wonder. Brennan ran out and nearly fell to his knees seeing his brother there. I go over to Kipp to see what happened.
"Zarah attacked me I don't know what got into her she was foaming at the mouth after eating something so I went to check her out and her eyes were blood shot." he replied
We're gonna have to put this dog down and I really dont want to do that, I'm gonna have to talk to Rorie like now.
