Nothing Left

Chapter 8: Almost

We had stopped on the side of the road, eating and talking. Malaya started to get car sick, so we gave her some stale crackers hoping the salt would help. Jonny and Ross chatted while keeping watch. I was on the hood of the car I drove, eating some stale chips and watching everyone. Gabriel was talking with Tina. I've known her for a small amount of time and before her and Mason were a thing, she was always flirting with Gabriel.

I remember last time I got jealous. Mackenzie. I remember beating the shit out of her, giving her a concussion, because see kissed Jesse and didn't care if he was with me. She just wouldn't give up. I don't care if Tina flirts with Gabriel though...I try not to think of it as that way. He always blows her off, keeps his distance and shrugs from under her touch.

I can't blame Tina for trying to hook up, like come on, it's an apocalypse. We are all lonely, and when we see someone we like, we want them. It's strange, humans. We can't survive without someone, or some type of feeling with another person. We're pathetic creatures.

When I kissed Gabriel in the store, I needed him. I'm pathetic. He needed me as well. That's why guys in both worlds are trying to rape girls. They need the sensation. They are just so lonely they've worn out there hand from masterbation. See how pathetic we are. Even girls in both worlds that are lonely, we throw our selves at someone hoping to get something out of it. Fucking pathetic.

I'll call myself pathetic too. I'm very fucking pathetic. All I'm thinking about is Gabriel, me, and those woods. What the hell? Yeah I know. Don't blame me for my horny, stupidity right now.

I caught myself staring at Gabriel when he glanced at me. Tina looked over at me as well and dismissed herself. I think she felt that I was getting jealous and about to attack her. I honestly wasn't. Strange? I know. Gabriel slowly strode over to me, smirking as he looked down at me.

"Hey there..." I looked up at him.

"Hey babe. Getting jealous or something?" Gabriel stood in front of me.

"What? No. What makes you think that?" I glanced at everyone, then looked up at him.

"You were staring at us talking."

"I was just thinking and shit. You know, when people start to zone out and end up staring at something."

"What were you thinking about?"

"Nothing important...." I sat up and stretched my back from slouching.

I got back into my original position and caught Gabriel staring at my chest. He glanced up at me and quickly looked away. I smiled and wrapped my arms around his neck, pulling him down for a hug.

"Stare much?" I whispered.

"Yeah...." He kissed my neck. "Never got to see 'em. Just feel 'em though..."

I giggled quietly and moved my head back, so he had better access to kiss my neck. Here comes my desperate, horny, pathetic side. I looked at everyone to make sure they weren't looking, then I closed my eyes.

"Not here...." I moaned.

"I know..." He kissed my cheek and pulled away.

I kept him close, and looked up at him. "Wanna go hunting?" I smirked.

"Hunting?" He raised an eyebrow and smiled.

I nodded and finally let him go. He stepped back and I jumped down, from the car. I went around and grabbed Kat's old bow and arrow from the car. I looked at it and smiled at the memories. I missed her. I slung the bag of arrows around my back and walked to Ross and Jonny.
