I got inspiration from "I am legend" for some of this. It's a really good film! You should watch it if you haven't already! 😊
Marks POV
I hate this. I don't know how much longer I can deal with being on my own in a time like this. I've been wandering around these same empty streets for months and I've become so accustomed to it that I've even made my own friends out of mannequins. It keeps me on my toes because mannequins are my biggest fear. Other than being ripped apart by the zombies that I currently share this city with.
Well, I suppose I've got Chica. That's better than nothing I guess. I've had her since before all this bullshit started. She's the only thing I have left from back then, other than my locket necklace that I have with pictures of my mom and dad in it.
I guess they're gone now. I don't like to think about that stuff though. I just think about anything positive I guess. If I thought about the negatives all the time - and believe me there are enough of them - then I don't think I'd still be alive.
My only reasonable wish at the moment is to find somebody. Anybody! SOMEONE WHO ISN'T A FUCKING MANNEQUIN!!!
But, today has started off like every other day. Leave the house with chica, get in the car, drive to the store down the road, say hi to my "friends", try and make conversation with anything. Nothing ever replies though. It's not like I expect them to. To be honest I think I'd feel worse if one of the mannequins suddenly replied.
Once I've "bought" (taken) some food from the store I start to drive home. Just like every single other da- wait...
Is that a person!? An actual HUMAN!?
I speed up towards the running being in the distance and pull over next to them. It isn't a zombie!?
It stops running. Well, he stops running.
He looks at my car and sees me, he immediately raises his gun in fear.
Jacks POV
I don't know who that is, but it's the first person I've seen in a few months. However, I don't want to risk anything, so I still take precautions with my gun.
He slowly puts his hands up and gets out the car. He is followed by a gorgeous golden retriever dog. "Hello?" He asks with a deep and concerned voice, "I'm not gonna do anything to hurt you, I've been trying to find anyone for months now. If you don't want company then fair enough, but I really could use a friend at the moment. I have food?" He questions and slowly lowers his hands.
I let out a shakey breath and lower my gun, "hello. I'm jack." I said and he seemed surprised, "you're Irish? Heh, did I accidentally cross the ocean these past few months or something?" He chuckled and I giggled along. "No, you didn't, I moved here just before all this happened, I've been looking for survivors too. I would love to go with you if you have somewhere to stay?" I asked shyly and he smiled.
He called me over and got into his car so I followed and climbed in next to him with his dog sitting in the back. "Oh that's chica by the way, she's been with me since before everything started, she's all I have from home really, she's my only family left." He said not taking his eyes off the road.
"I don't have anything from home, everything was still in boxes at my apartment when it started and because I was out at the time I didn't have any of my possessions. I don't even know where my house is anymore." I replied and he nodded and sighed.
We finally reached his house that he had zombie proofed and he showed me inside. My stomach was howling as I haven't eaten anything but the few slices of bread that I had left all week. He noticed and offered to make some pizza! "How in hell do you have pizza!?" I asked and he said that he frequently visits the store and somehow a lot of the food is still good and not gone off yet, including the pizza.
As he cooked I searched the house a bit and cuddled with Chica until the pizza was done and we sat and ate together.
"You never told me your name?" I finally asked remembering that he hadn't mentioned it. "Oh god I'm sorry, I'm Mark!" He replied and held out his hand for me to shake. I giggled and grabbed his hand but I pulled him into a hug. He was stiff at first but then wrapped his arms around me and hugged me back.
"Sorry if that got a little weird. I haven't been in human contact for months and it feels nice to be able to hold someone." He mumbled blushing as he finally released me. "It's fine, I feel the same way." I said smiling at him.
Marks POV
I CANT HELP IT OK!?!?
Ugghhhh.
Ever since I saw the adorable Irish boy my immediate first thought was, 'oh my god he's really hot and cute and I want him to love me.' WHY!?
His brown hair that was clearly died a dark green before but has gradually faded is short at the sides but longer and messier on top. He has stunning crystal blue eyes that hypnotise you as soon as you look into them. His stubble has gotten messy and needs a trim, but it adds to his sexiness as this mysterious guy who has somehow survived despite his scrawny body with some but little muscle.
His thick Irish accent was gorgeous, he turned me on just by speaking for Christ sake!!! Ugh why out of all people did it have to be him that I came across? This could either be a blessing or a curse, but that all depends on how he feels.
As we finish the pizza I'm really not sure what to do. There's unsurprisingly not much to do in a zombie apocalypse. Usually if I had a friend over I'd play video games. But there's been no power for ages now.
I guess we'll just have to sit and talk about things. "Mark? Can I randomly ask you a question?" He asked with a shakey breath, "well you just did so shoot I guess." I reply chuckling, trying to ease his nerves.
"Do you think this will ever be over. Do you think that anyone will ever be able to stop all of this?" He mumbles and looked deeply into my eyes.
"Jack, look, for all we know, we might be the last people on the earth. However, there could also be a huge group of people somewhere out there who are working on fixing everything right this second. We don't know. And I can't say if we ever will know. I don't want to get your hopes up for anything but I also don't want you to loose hope. So just think of both possibilities but my advise is to only focus on the present. Make these days the best they can be and take every stupid risk just for the chance of making every day better because it could be your last."
I answer and he seems to soak up every single word I say and savour each moment as I say it. He smiles weakly at me but I see the glint in his eyes as he looks away from me, meaning he's still worried. "Jack look at me." He looks back up with one small tear running down his cheek.
I moved closer to him and lifted his chin to look back into his eyes, "don't worry now Jack, focus on the here and now and don't think about the negatives, think about all the good things! We have food and water, we have shelter, we have weapons for protection and most importantly we now have each other."
He leant forward and hugged me tightly, he's so cute and fragile, I will do everything I can to protect him. I think to myself as I stroke his back and hair. He pulls back and I can see that he's tired. I pick him up and carry him to the spare room. I wanted for him to sleep in my bed with me I don't know if he'd be comfortable with tha- "Mark?" He cut me off from my thoughts and I turned to look at him.
"Would it be ok if I slept with you? Only if you're comfortable with it though..." he mumbled and looked at the ground, fumbling his hands together. I grinned at him and lifted him up again making him giggle.
I carried him to my bedroom and we climbed into bed together. I faced one way and he faced the other, "night Mark" he yawed and I smiled, "night jack". I replied and drifted to sleep.

A.N.I'm starting to think that this book shouldn't be called one shots because I'm doing more and more stories with parts now 😂
I'm gonna start on part 2 straight away so it should be up soon. I could've done it all in one part but then it'd be really long 😩
Thanks for reading!
