Remember when I said everything went back to normal?Yeah,I'm not a big fan of that.Elias is back at being silent,we are currently back at walking through this damn city again,and I have no idea what the fuck he needed so badly from Jo's house.I didn't see him getting anything.Wait.What if that's the point?
"What did you take from Jo's house?"My question breaks the deep silence,but apparently it's not interesting enough for even a proper look.
"A compass,two maps,essentials."
"Not buying it."I say and cross my arms.
"Well I don't give a shit,so crossing your arms won't do you any good."He spits out which caught me by surprise.All right then.
I raise my shirt's sleeves irritated from how hot it is.God I hate that I had to wear this in order for my bites not to show.But I'm sure my secret is safe for now.Unless Elias suddenly decides to become a human being and socialise with someone except sometimes me,and tells something.Although I'm pretty sure that wouldn't happen even If we were in a different universe.
I mean,is it the fact the he told me about his sister that made him a bigger asshole than usual?Is it the fact that I hugged him?DAMN IT MAN WHAT IS IT?!
"What is what?"Elias aks confused.
Oops.Did I say that out loud?
"Uh nothing."I say trying i cover my stupidity and raises his eyebrow.Fuck.
"Fine."He says and we go back to the whole not-talking thing.How wonderful.
I don't really like the place we are currently in.It is a small,narrow street,with a lot of blind spots wich make me feel anxious.I srart to whistle to pass time,and I hear him sigh.
"Oh good you know how to whistle.Another thing you can annoy me with."
"You're real funny you know that?"I say irritated by his bad mood."You know what?No.You've been like this since we left the house and I-"I don't get to finish my sentence though,as a Corpse jumps out of the shadows,knocking me down making me scream from this sudden encounter.
"Hayley what-"Elias turns around and tries to approach me but a bunch more come out.I knew this was a bad place!
I push it off me and slam it's head open with a pipe.Thank God of those old baseball practises.But if Elias gave me a freaking gun,I would be able to kill these fuckers more easily!
A second one runs sloppily towards me but I hit it with the pipe again only to have it shutter to pieces.What kind of pipe is this?!
I don't see one when it comes at me but Elias shoots it seconds before it reaches and blood spatters my face.
"Elias I need a gun!"I shout and punch a Corpse in front of me.Elias shouts my name and throws me a gun and I catch it,immediately starting to shoot.I don't even realize when all the Corpses are dead,holding my gun up in alert.I breath heavily and I turn to look at Elias when I see him getting up from the ground.
"Hey are you okay?"I ask and he nods.
"It just caught me by suprise.I'm good."
"Yeah not so good apparently."I say and point at the cut on his forehead.I reach my hand to touch it,but he grabs me by the wrist.
"What are you doing?"He asks me.
"I was just trying to see how bad it is.At least before you grabbed my freakin' arm!"I say and back off,throwing my hands in surrender.I'm getting tired of this.
"Let's go."I say angry and start walking.I don't see or hear him walking next to me,but right now I don't care.
"Hayley hold up!Why are you acting like this what's going on?"He asks and I scoff.
"What's going on?You really wanna know?Well here it is!This morning with Jo you were just fine but the second we walked out the door you went back to being moody and not talking to me.Then you start complaining and acting like a complete asshole!I thought we were pass that!"
There I said it.
"Why because I told you about my dead sister?!Do you think we are buddies now?No Hayley.I'm just the guy that will take you to the freaking Resistance for -- whatever your stupid crusade is!"He shouts at me and I stare at him speechless.Is that how he really feels?
I clear my throat."Okay then."I say and he pinches his nose sighing.
"Hayley-"
"No need to explain yourself.I got it.Let's just go."He looks at me and frowns.
The next couple of hours are filled with silence,which I never thought I'd like.But right now I can't think of anything more appropriate.He might not have said much,but it's still kinda hurt my feelings I mean I didn't expect him to treat me like we've known each other for years and that we are best friends and stuff,but he didn't have to be so aggressive about it.
I turn to look at him,and see he is still bleeding.Even though he swipes the blood with the back of his hand the blood just keeps on slowly making its way out of the wound.I swing my backpack so that it's in front of me and take out a small cloth.
"Take it before you bleed to death."I say and smack it on his stomach and he coughs.Sorry not sorry.
"You don't need to kill me with it."He says.
"I sure as hell considered it."I shoot back and I hear him sigh as I keep walking.
"Damn it Hayley would you stop for a second?!"He shouts behind me and I turn around folding my hands over my chest.
"What."
"Look I know that you're angry about what I said earlier but I know you for how long.Barely a month!And only Jon knew about Layla so excuse me if I feel strange for telling you!I sure as hell know that you would act the same if you told me about your army little necklace!"
I close my eyes and breath slowly.I hate it that he's right.I walk closer to him and grab the towel from his hand.
"Sit your ass down."I say to him and point at what looked like the shell of a broken water fountain.
"Why?"
"Do you even know how tall you are?"I ask him and he actually thinks about it for a sec.
"6 feet thank you very much."He says proudly and sits down.
"Yeah no time to brag about your height.And by the way I'm 5'5.So you get the point."I say and he smiles."Don't smile I'm still mad at you."But he doesn't stop smiling while looking at me in the eyes.
Damn that smile is gonna be the death of me..
