Zombie Apocalypse/Mashton

part twelve

Michael's pov

I woke up before Ashton and the first thing I did was check my watch "Ashton it's 10.07am, you better wake up!" I glanced at him who started to slowly wake up and I ran my fingers through his hair "did you sleep well?" "yeah I slept good..did you?" he asked but had an utterly confused facial expression however I shrugged it off "yeah, it felt so nice to cuddle you last night, so magical" "magical? That's cheesy but you make it work" "I literally am cheese! A good kind of cheese though" "the best type of cheese" Ash replied and pecked my cheek which made me smile "I'm not dick cheese, that's for sure" "you can get dick cheese?" "Yeah i knew a guy who had it, nasty as fuck" "oH..gross" I nodded in argument and saw what looked to be a zombie crawl up to us near by, fuck.

"Holy shit..Ashton..." "What?" he asked and sitted up "zombie.." I noticed how his body tensed and his skin go insanely pale. He seemed more afraid of zombies than ever before "where??" He asked "there.." I said and slowly pointed to the crawling monster, he turned around and looked at it "oH.." I stood up quickly"cmon, we gotta get out of here!" but he didn't move "don't just sit there!!" I panicked and picked him up as the zombie made a growling noise "cmon!!' I said, trying to snap him out of his troubled daze but snapped out of it when yanking his arm"stop yanking my arm!!" he snapped, I admit, this wasn't like him at all and took me surprised "do you want to get bit?? No! You need to come!" I said and kept pulling his arm, eventually he got up "I'm up okay! I'm up!" "Should I kill it??" "I...I don't know!" "fuck.. fuck.." I muttered. We stood there in fear and panic, we couldn't run, it would run after us and with Ashton's sprained ankle we would be fucked. We have no weapons so what-

A skull cracking noise had brought me out of my panicked state and I snapped back into reality seeing what the nosie was, I slowly backed away from Ashton..Who just.. killed it, his first time..But that's not like him at all! "let's go." he said in an monotone voice "Ashton.. what the fu.. since when do you kill zombies?" "Can we just fucking go?!" I frowned at his behaviour"chill..Why so angry?" "I'm not." he lied "mhm" I sighed as he walked off and I quickly followed after him.

"Come on man" I said, trying to keep up with him who was walking surprisingly fast for having a sprained ankle "what?" "tell me what's wrong, please?" "nothing is wrong" "I know you when something is wrong" '
"drop it" "what? okay?' I said confused and 'drops it like it's hot' to lighten the mood "thanks?" I slut dropped again "better?" I asked and giggled "no, why do that?" "you told me to drop it.. so I dropped it like it's hot" he stayed silent for a moment before replying with a blunt "okay" I wanted to make him smile, something was up and whatever it was I wanted him to be okay so I sqautted hoping to make him at least give out a small giggle but no reply came from his mouth "my legs are killing from all that running last night" yet again no reply "why are you ingoring me?" I said and started crying, fake crying even. To get a reaction of some sort which seemed to have worked to an extent "why are you crying?" "my eyes are sweating, it's a hot day" "it's raining though" "some people get hotter than others" I continued to lie, he gave out a sigh "okay?' but now I didn't have fake tears, real ones of frustration started to run down my face too "I'm crying because you don't like me anymore" "the heck Michael?" "you heard me" I said and walked ahead "I do like you" 'mhm" was all I said "Michael I do fucking like you!" "why do off with me then??" "like I said, please just drop it" I stayed silent and so did he.

I spoke up with a simple "no" "fine whatever then i just won't talk to you" "well I guess there is nothing new about that" I shot back "really? this again?" "what again?" "this, arguing" "no..I uh.. wasnt arguing. That's the last thing we need after all that shit" I said, realising I must have sounded like a dick "yes you were, you were starting an argument"  "I just got annoyed that you were ingoring me. How is that arguing?" "and then you kept going on and on so shut up" I let out a laugh "shut up? right, nice. Okay" I said and walked in front of him again. I continued to walk ahead and mumbled"so selfish urgh" and I kept walking. Not even bothering to look back.

I zoned out while walking, I didn't know for how long but all I knew is that I didn't hear any footsteps behind me and that's what made me worry. I turned around and noticed Ashton wasn't there "Ashton?! Ash?!" I yelled but no reply. I searched for what felt like hours but wasn't probably only around half of one before collapsing on the floor and sobbing "you've lost pretty much everything you had. Well done Michael" I cried to myself, leaving myself dreach in tears.

Time has ticked on and the tears didn't dry up, I felt soft footsteps come infront of me and I slowly looked up, Ashton. He didn't say anything but looked into my eyes, holding emotions of fear and guilt but most importantly, love. I stood up and looked into his eyes back"y-you..You came back" "of coruse I came back" he said softly, just hearing his voice gave me so much comfort and I embraced him into a hug in which he did back "i really thought you were going to walk out on me.. for good..I..I.. got so scared"  he kept hugging me and whispered in my ear "coruse not, don't be silly" I hugged him tighter"I'm glad you didn't" "me too.." "can.. can we get out of here? or find somewhere else new to camp?" he gave a nod "yeah sure" I smiled and held my hand out for him to hold in which he did and we walked out of the forest, hand in hand, in silence but hearing the beats of our hearts beat in time.
