Chapter 3

Hope you've enjoyed it so far! if you have any questions then ask!

CARL'S POV

Oh Meghan ... I hate how I love you but you'll always think of me as a best FRIEND... Is that all we'll ever be is friends ? I don't wanna be just friends anymore! I wanna be the one to hold you in my arms! To protect you from...from these monsters! I mean I know I've helped you...but I want you to feel safe around me... I thought this to myself all at once .

"It was great catching up and all but we really need to get back to my house . That is if the monsters haven't taken it over yet..." I told her .

"When...when you were at your house...did...did everyone make it okay ?" She asked me with tears starting to form .

"Well...my...my dad umm..." I broke off mid sentence .

"Carl..." She started but I interrupted her .

"Don't ." That was all I could manage to say .

MEGHAN'S POV

I know he's hurting and I wanna help... But he won't let me . He has these...these walls built . He won't let me past them .

"Let's just go ." He said with an emotionless expression .

"Okay..." I answered .

So we started packing everything we could fit into a duffle bag . Food, water , medicine, weapons from my dads safe, and more . Of course we made sure we had blankets and coats . Who knows how long we'll be in this mess . It's the freaking zombie apocalypse for crying out loud!!! Then we were off toward his house .

"Carl can we talk for a second ?" I asked him nervously .

"About what ?" He asked with the same emotionless face . The blank eyes staring straight ahead .

"Look...I know it hurts but you should-" I started .

"I should what!? Let it out! Talk about my feelings! Just don't! You don't get it! My dad could've actually had a chance to live! If he wasn't shot! If he and my mom hasn't fought that day! Maybe he wouldn't have rushed out!" He screamed at me .

Ouch...that hurt . I bite my lip to fight the tears and stare straight ahead . I don't get it ...he's right . But he's not the only one who lost a parent! So did I! Sometimes he could be so stubborn!

CARL'S POV

I look over to see Meghan biting her lip...she always does this to stop herself from crying .

"Stop . You're gonna start bleeding if you bite your lip that hard . " I tell her .

"So what...it's not like it matters anyway . But who cares . It's too late ." She says as the blood starts to flow .

"Look...I-" I tried to apologize .

"Don't . It's over and done with . I should've known better that to try to get you to talk about it . " she says .

So on we walk in silence . I can't help but keep looking at her ... She's just so...

"CARL LOOK!" She screams .

I look ahead to see at least 20 monsters . They're crowding something... Or someone...

"OH MY GOSH ! OH MY GOSH ! WE'RE GONNA-" I quiet her down by covering her mouth with my hand .

"Shhh... You're gonna get us killed!" I warn her .

She looks at me with an apologetic look . I look at her back . Telling her its okay .

"We need to see what there after . What if its my dad!? Or someone we know!?" I suddenly get a ton of adrenalin .

"Carl I-"

"I said what if . I didn't say it is ." I tell her . I knew what she was gonna say .

"Okay well... What's the plan ?" She asks .

Just as I'm about to answer she starts screaming again .

"CARL IT'S GOT ME! HELP ME PLEASE! DON'T LET IT TAKE ME!"
