Chapter 10- Virus

EARLY UPDATE!

So, you guys have some really cool ideas on what Niall’s secret is. And some of you are close, but not there yet. Not to fret, he will be revealing his secret soon enough.

But, continue to guess! I love reading all your guesses, they give me ideas. :)

Dedication to: @DirectionersUnited93 (P.S sorry for the nightmares love) and @Sort-of-weird (Creative ideas, never thought of that possibility;))

P.S @ChipsAHOY15, vegas is great! Lets elope! But can we invite the readers too? ;P

Enjoy!

We had decided that- yeah- maybe this wasn’t the ideal place to spend the night. But, before we could find anywhere else a group of walkers wandered around the area we were in. I cursed, not thinking about how territorial the city walkers were. (A/N thank you @peterpan6, decided that was a really good point.) All city walkers were territorial, the lack of humans and actual food made whatever actually that was stupid enough to actually wander in here a target. With any other walkers, they just continue to wander… but with the lack of food the walkers have become territorial. How could I forget about something like that? I shook my head and wandered into the back seeing a freezer with a large metal door. I walked inside and saw that it was much cleaner than anything else in here, and it would be the best protection from the walkers. The windows were broken, and there was no front door, so we couldn’t just sleep out in the open. Especially with those walkers so close to us, it could be easy to break those locks. Hunger makes anything- and everything- much crazier and more determined with food right in your grasp. I walked back to the ‘dining area’ of sorts to see Liam and Harry watching the rattling wooden door holding the starving walkers and Louis and Zayn watching the front door and windows. All of them had their weapons drawn, determination etched in their features, eyes alert. I tapped Harry on the shoulder and he jumped swinging at me. I ducked instinctively, just barely missing his flying fist then stood up straight grabbing his shoulders to calm him. He instantly relaxed as soon as he saw it was me and I looked at the others to see them watching us, probably because of the violence and sudden movements. I rolled my eyes and nodded my head in the direction of the freezer. Everyone nodded and made their way to the freezer. Harry grabbed my wrist, turning me to face him. His eyes looked apologetic and he was wearing a sheepish grin. I smiled warmly, nodding to tell him his apology was accepted. I smiled brightly and I held the urge to coo at the adorable boy. I grabbed his hand absently and dragged him to our shelter for the night. I couldn’t help but think about how soft his hands were, and how big they were. His hand wrapped around mine, fitting together perfectly. But seriously, I have big hands but his are bigger. And you know what they say about big hands….. Big gloves. Ha. I had to hold in the little giggle that was threatening to escape at the stupid joke. I allowed a small smile to grace my features when it finally clicked that he didn’t pull his hand from mine. But it all ended to quickly when we reached the door of the freezer and then there was a crash from the ‘dining area’. I pushed Harry into the freezer and closed the door. I gave him a pointed look and pointed my pointer finger at him in a scolding manner. His shoulders slumped in defeat but he nodded nonetheless. I nodded, turning on my heel and slipped my knife from the sheath in my supra. I stealthily crept down the hallway, through the kitchen, and peaked around the corner into the ‘dining area’ holding in a gasp at who had just walked through the broken doorway. I shook my head, stepping backwards. My breathing was shallow, heart beat accelerated. In my delirious and hasty state I wasn’t careful enough and I knocked down a glass causing it to shatter. I froze in place, and the person at the door walked forward, closer and closer to me. But now, I wasn’t alone. I had people to protect. He wasn’t just coming closer to me, but to Liam, Louis, Zayn, and Harry. Harry.

Another step closer to me, the person turned the corner and stepped into the kitchen where I was hiding. We locked eyes, a wicked smirk spread on his face.

Shit.
