Love In The Apocalypse

MY VEIW

MY POV

"Bryana can you come down here?" I hear my mother say in a sad voice.

"I'll be right down." I say as I run down the stairs to where my mom is. She is crying which makes me upset."What's wrong mom?"

"Bryana......I think you.....no we need to sit on the couch," I am scared, I've never seen my mom this upset before,"okay Bryana.......your dad he.......he got in a car accident and........he didn't make it.

TIME SKIP

Its been two years since I last seen my dad. It's hard not living with him because I was four and I had never been without my dad once. Tomorrow will be my seventh birthday and I think I might have a good birthday this year. Shane and my mom are very close and since my mom's not miserable from my dad's death it should be good.

"Hey Bryana are you excited about being seven, I know I was." Carl says as he walks into my room.

Carl and I have been best friends since I was born. I heared he kissed me on the cheek when he first seen me. His dad, Rick, is in a coma because he got shot like a month ago. Carl was just at the hospital visiting him.

"Yeah it should be better than my last two bithdays, thanks to Shane." Shane is like a father figure to me since my dad died.

"It's going to be the best I made sure". He says with a big grin on his face.

"You're the best friend anyone could ever have." I give him a big hug and he leaves my house.

Next Day

I come home from school and go in my room. I don't hear my mom so i'm going downstairs. I walk in the kitchen and find her on the floor. There is blood everywhere and her insides are coming out of her body. I scream, run nextdoor to find Shane, Lori, and Carl running out of the door to me.

"What's wrong? What happened?" They all say at the same time.

"It's....my-my....mom she's-she's....dead!" I cry.

Their eyes widend and Shane slowly walks through the door. After about two minutes Shane comes back outside. He looks confused and is looking all over the place.

"Theres blood on the floor, but shes not on the kitchen floor."

"What? How can that be she was on the floor just a little bit ago." I say as I run in the house with Shane following me. He is right she isn't there. But where did she go? Or who took her body? Also if this is a prank it is not funny at all. I see her, she is walking towards us with her insides trailing behind her.

"Mom, what happened? Who did this to you?" She opens her mouth to bit me, but Shane grabes me and starts to run out of the house. "It's happening," I say in a shocked voice.

"What's happening? What do you mean!?" Carl screams.

"The apocalypse, people die and come back to eat anything that is living."

"What? No that can't happen Rick is still in the hospital." Lori says as we hear someone scream down the street.

"I think we need to get inside and then talk about this," Shane says. We go in Lori and Carl's house.

"Okay I'll call the station and find out what the fuck is going on and Lori you call the hospital to find out what's going to happen to Rick. You two go up stairs," he says pointing to me and Carl, "and Carl you pack some cloths just in case we have to leave. Also anything you think you might need." Shane says with a little bit of shock still on his face from what just happened.

Me and Carl go up stairs to his room and he starts packing. I just sit in his bed and cry waiting to hopefully wake up from this nightmare. I lost both of my parents I have nothing nobody.

"Carl can you help me?" I need to help my mom, but I can't do it one my own.

"Sure, what is it?" He stops throwing cloths in his bag and looks at me.

"I need to go to my house, but I need your help. We need to get my mom in the bathroom and shut the door." I cant just leave her in there someone might kill her.

"Okay, but how are we going to do it?" I know he's scared and that he's only doing it to make me feel better.

"We need to bang on the front door then go through the back. Then make sure that the doors are open. I will call her while you hide behind something. I will walk in the bathroom with her following me. You need to shut the door once she's in there and I will shut the other one behind me." I look at him waiting for him to say something. He shakes his head 'okay' then we climb out the window.

Carl and I did it really fast and then I run up stairs to my room. I grab five outfits, ten pairs of underwear, socks, shoes, a picture of me and my mom and my dad, deodorant, toothbrush, toothpaste, my phone too listen to my play list well mostly 'Pretty Much' cause there amazing, charger and a few other things. Just then I hear footsteps coming up the stairs.

"Oh no," I say as I grab Carl's hand and we hide in my closet. I see a walker. Of course there is another walker in my house. My mom got killed she didn't rip her own insides out.

"What are we going to do?" Carl whispers in my ear. He sounds very scared. I cant believe I got him into this.

"Don't worry i'll get us out of here." I feel around for something not trying to make noise. Yes, my dad's tool box is in here. I put it in here when he died. I quickly got the hammer out and look for the walker. Except it's not there what is up with things disappearing around here. "Where is it?" I ask Carl.

"It left, I think it went down stairs." He opens the closet and we both step out. I am holding the hammer up just incase.

I go to the door to shut it, but the walker is right there. "Carl help!" I shut the door on the walker to close it. Carl comes over to help me, but before he makes it the walker pushes the door open and makes the hammer go flying. The walker falls right beside me. I stood up to run, but it grabs my leg. "Carl grab the hammer! Smash it in the head, hurry!" I say as I kick it in the face.

Carl grabs the hammer and slams it in its head repeatedly to make sure it is dead. He looks terrified, he helps me up and I give him a hug.

"Thanks you saved my life. I guess I owe you," I say with a smile.

"Carl! Bryana! Are you hurt!? What happened!?" Lori is yelling while she runs up the stairs. She looks in the room and grabs us. I grabbed my bag before she did and now where walking back to their house. "I dont know why you left, but don't ever do that again."
