We All Still Die

Chapter 5: Who is he?

                                                     The sun was rising on the horizon, giving the sky a dark cotton candy look. Xavier woke up and pushed Jared off him with a grunt. His hair was all spiked up in different directions and his eyes were red and demonic like. He glared at Chris who was staring at Xavier. 

                                                   "Why don't we get up and ditch this dude?" Xavier whispered to Chris, his voice hoarse as he was pointing at Jared who was still asleep. Chris looked worse than Xavier. His eyes were filled with sleep and more redness than his own. He looked like he had just got hit by a train and his boss fired him at his funeral. 

                                               "I'm not too fond of him either but if we need saving, he has our asses man." Chris said, a little bit of an accent coming through his words. He looked Xavier up and down and sighed, his voiced filled with sadness. 

                                                 Suddenly, shouts were filling the streets of Atlanta. Jared woke up with a jolt as he looked around in shock. Xavier ignored the man boy and looked off the balcony to find where the noise was coming from. Two people were walking down the street close to them, in view, shouting for god knows what reason. 

                                                "Hey idiots, keep it down, you know this is the zombie apocalypse?" Xavier yelled at them. He watched them turn around to face where the voice was coming from and he laughed. There, two people standing down 6 floors from them, a girl and a boy.

                                                "Xavier?" The boy asked, his eyes squinting to try to see him better. Xavier stared at the boy, the streets were silent for a good two minutes.

                                              "Ryan?" Xavier replied, walking over to the left edge of the balcony and luckily, there was a fire escape. He slid down the small latter slowly, but efficiently and landed at the bottom with a huff. 

                                              Xavier turned around and saw the boy who was looking at him in shock. "Ryan is it really you?" He asked, his face twisted in confusion and wonder. Jared soon followed down walked over to Xavier and stood half in front of him.

                                            "You know this idiot? Be careful, he could be bit." Jared looked down at Xavier with actual concern in his eyes. Xavier looked at him intensely for a second and he heard Chris come down behind them.

                                             Xavier punched Jared in the arm and ran towards the boy who was currently looking at him in complete and utter shock, tears stained his face. As he got close to the other male, he jumped up and hugged him, instantly wrapping his arms around the boy's neck, tangling his legs around the boy's waist, and kissing his face. The male that was currently holding Xavier, accepted it and gently cradled him back.

                                            "I can't believe you survived!" Xavier said to the boy who goes by Ryan, putting his forehead against the other male's. He could feel the tingling stare of hatred come from Jared, but he didn't care. 

                                          "I knew you'd still be alive. You're a handful and no zombie would want to mess with someone as annoying as you." Ryan said to Xavier, his face full of love for the boy. The girl behind him just flipped them off and stared at Jared. 

                                          Ryan put Xavier down and glanced towards the girl. "This is Rene, she's a friend of mine that was looting my house the day of the apocalypse." He smiled with sarcasm and grabbed Xavier's hand to hold. 

                                        "Hey, you look pretty good at fighting, why don't you teach me some things?" Rene said in Jared's direction, walking up to him.

                                        "Sorry, I don't hit girls." Jared laughed, his face a mixture of anger and happiness. He was angry with Xavier, but happy this girl thought he was cute.

                                        "That's Chris." Xavier told Ryan, pointing to the boy who stood half behind, half next to Jared. Chris nodded and looked down, he didn't want these new guests to see him in the condition he was currently in.

                                         "So, where we headed?" Ryan asked, he was smiling, his grin bright and his brown hair was slicked back. He had bright emerald eyes that could catch anyone's gaze. He was Xavier's boyfriend, the person Xavier thought was dead, the person Xavier was going to get revenge for because of this zombie uprising. Now nothing fuels the fire of hatred other than the fact that these creatures were human eating machines.
