Surviving.

Chapter Three: What are you doing here?

Hey guys. I just wanted to say that i changed some of the character's names. Enjoy xD

"Zack," i stutter as i back away from him, "what are you doing here?"

He takes a step closer to me and i take a step back, only to find that i'm against a wall.

 "Lainey? As in Lainey Galoway?" he asks with his eyes wide in shock, "I thought for sure you would be a walker by now."

My eyes narrow slightly and i stare up at him, "What's That supposed to mean?"

"It means that i thought you were weak and not clever enough to survive this long," he says with a raised eyebrow.  

"And why on Earth would you think that?" i say menacingly as i flip the safety off the pistol aimed at his head.

"Because you weren't all tough like this when we were dating," he says and i lower my gun. "See? There's the Lainey i remember."

I glare at him harshly and say, "You never knew me Zackary. And if you did....you would never have cheated on me with my best freakin' friend."

"That was 2 months ago, Lainey," he replies angrily, "Ever heard the saying, 'Forgive and Forget?"

"UGH." i aim the gun at his head again, "Don't tempt me Zack. Or this will not end pretty."

"I'm not scared of you, sweetheart." he says as he twists my arm back and makes me drop my pistol.

He shoves me against the wall and whispers in my ear:

"But you should be scared of me." I shiver slightly when i feel his hot breath on my ear. But before i can even do anything, and booming voice sounds from behind us:

"ZACK? WHAT THE HE-," Alexander starts, but then his frantic eyes meet mine. He freezes, but only for an instant, then he's punching Zack in the face; freeing me from his death grip.

I stumble off the wall and towards the 2 fighting figures and yell, "STOP."

And the two men freeze as i stare down at both of them, "You guys are idiots. Especially you Zack. Stop fighting for no freakin' reason."

"But he-..." Alexander begins but i hold up my hand, "No buts.Now start acting like civilized men and sit down." They both plop down into a chair and i sit on the table between them.

"Now, Alexander apologize to Zack. And Zack apologize to Alexander."

"I am not apologizing to this douche, Lainey," Alexander says with a bit of edge in his voice.

"Yeah me neither. And you can't make us," Zack agrees.

I pull out my dagger and twirl it between my fingers with one eyebrow raised, "Are you sure about that, boys?"

Alexander shakes his head, "You wouldn't hurt me Lai. And you know it."

"Oh yeah Alex?" i say as i slide the dagger's tip across his thumb.

He winces and pulls his thumb away. "okay Okay. I'm sorry, Zack, that i almost killed you because you were all over Lainey," He says with a smirk on his face. I hit his arm playfully and then turn to Zack.

"Your turn, Zack."

"I sincerely apologize for attacking you two. But attacking is life," he replies barely containing his laughter. We roll our eyes at him and start chatting about how we survived so long.
