Walkers, Three Mermaids, Two Singers, and a Sheriff's Son

Chapter 7: The run

Noelle's POV

After Harry had kissed me, we decided to go to bed. It was late. The next morning, I woke up next to Harry. His arms were around my waist, making me smile. I turned around to look at him. His hair was messy, with a few curls in his face. I moved them away and kissed his cheek. He smiled in his sleep. I poked his dimples that had arose on his face. He slowly opened his eyes. When he saw me, he smiled wider. I smiled back at him. "Good morning, Noelle. How did you sleep?" He asked me. "Good morning to you too, Harry. And I slept just fine. What about you?" "I slept very well. In fact, it was the best sleep that I've had in years." He replied. I smiled and got up to go to the bathroom. When I came back, Harry was up and dressed. He told me to get dressed and meet him outside of the cell. I walked to my bag and grabbed my red and black Sleeping With Sirens t-shirt, my black skinny jeans, and my red converse. I then quickly got dressed. After that, I brushed my hair. I have scene hair that's blue and purple. The dye is coming out, though. Once I was done brushing my hair, I quickly put on eyeliner. I have a tiny mirror in my bag, so I can see what I'm doing. After I was done, I walked out of the cell. Harry was waiting for me. He smiled and grabbed my hand. We began to walk to the cafeteria. I decided to start up a conversation. "Hey curly?" I asked. "Yes, beautiful?" He asked back, making me roll my eyes. "What do you want to be when you grow up? Like, if this whole zombie apocalypse thing never happened." "I want to be a singer. My favorite thing to do is sing. And I like to make people happy. If I could do that by singing, then that would be amazing. What do you want to be?" He asked. "That's a wonderful choice. You'll have to sing for me one of these days. And I want to be a fashion designer. I love designing and making things." I reply. "That's also a wonderful choice. And yeah. I will have to sing for you one of these days." He smiled at me. I smiled back at him. We then reached the cafeteria. We walked in and he went to get the food, while I sat down. He came back with two granola bars. He handed me one and sat next to me. A few seconds later, Delilah and Carl walked into the cafeteria. Delilah took one look at me and Harry, and this big smirk appeared on her face. Oh no. This can't be good. "Getting close are we? What happened while I was gone? Tell me everything!" She yelled as she ran to me. Carl and I gave her a look for her sudden outburst. "I don't know what you're talking about." I said while blushing and started to walk away. "Noelle, you are going to tell me!" She said in a serious tone. "Fine. Well, we were talking. I wanted to call him curly, but he would only let me if he could call me beautiful. I said that I was anything but beautiful. And he started saying that I was beautiful and he didn't want to hear me say that I wasn't. And he gave this whole big speech. And then he leaned in and kissed me." I said, looking at the ground. "Well, I'm glad to see you happy! Harry, if you break her heart, then I'll kick your ass. got it!?" Harry gulped and nodded before saying "I won't do anything of the sort. She's too special to me." I smiled and blushed before kissing his cheek. "Well, I'm still hungry." Delilah groaned. "Carl, I want a granola bar." He laughed and went to go get her one. She smiled and sat down. "Why are you smiling? Are you starting to see that he's not so bad after all? Are you actually starting to give him a chance?" I asked her as I sat down beside her. "I never said that I wouldn't give him a chance and he's getting me food! I love anyone who gets me food." She said and giggled a bit afterwards. I just laughed and smiled. Harry came up behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist. Delilah smiled. Carl then came back with her food "Thanks!" She said and ate the granola bar. They ate in silence, and Harry and I decided to leave. We walked back to our cell. Rick came in minutes later. "Hey. I'm going on a run and I'm taking Daryl and Glenn with me. Carl and Delilah are watching the prison. Just wanted to let you know before I left." He told us. We nodded and he left. I stopped him, though. "Hey Rick. Is it okay if Harry and I go with you? We could help. And Harry here, needs a different weapon. Other than his gun." I said as I glared at Harry. "Um... Sure. I guess that's fine. I'll let Carl and Delilah know. But hurry up. We're leaving soon." He replied. We nodded and he left, this time without any interruptions. I grabbed my sword, and Harry grabbed his gun. "Harry. You're not going to be able to use that. You'll get us all killed. So until we get you a new weapon, let me and everyone else do the work of protecting us." I tell him. He sighs. "Fine. But if you get hurt, I'll never forgive myself." "Me? Getting hurt? Never. I'm as tough as the rocks that Siren throws at those bastards heads. Those things never break. And she throws them pretty hard. I'll be fine." I say as I kiss his cheek. He smiles and we walk out of the cell. We walk outside to find Rick and everyone waiting for us. "Okay. It looks like you guys are ready to go, so let's leave." Rick says, and motions for us to get in his car. We climb inside and he gets in the drivers seat, and Glenn gets in the passenger seat. Daryl is riding his motorcycle. Rick starts the car, and Carl opens the gate for us. Rick and Daryl drive through. "We're going to stop at a weapon shop first. So Harry can get a weapon." Rick tells us. We nod and he starts to drive to the nearest weapon store. We get out and walk inside. The front of the store is lined up with a huge selection of guns. There are knives and machetes on the shelves to my right. To my left is bow and arrows. The back of the store has ammo and ropes. There are also bullet vests in the back. We all walk around, gathering everything that we can find. I go for the bullet vests. I grab one for everyone. I decide that Siren needs more than just rocks. I grab her a bow and 20 arrows. I grab a few knives for Delilah and I. Rick grabs the rope and a few guns. Daryl grabs more arrows for his crossbow. Glenn grabs all of the ammo that he can find. Harry starts to look for weapons for him and Liam. He grabs a few big knives for himself and a machete for Liam. We all meet each other at the front of the store. Then we all walk out. Rick, Glenn, Harry and I all get into the car. Daryl gets on his motorcycle. We then drive to a Walmart. The same one that Delilah, Siren and I had lived in... We get out of the car and carefully walk inside. Rick goes in first, and then Daryl. Harry and I walk in next, and Glenn walks in behind us. "Okay. Everyone quickly get what we need and meet me here when you're done. If you run into a walker, don't hesitate to use your weapons. Just don't use your guns. That will attract more and we will all die." Rick tells us. We all nod and walk to get the stuff that we need. I walk to the clothes aisle. I grab clothes for everyone. After that, I walk to the music aisle. I grab a new guitar for Delilah. I then grab her a microphone. The guitar that I grab her is a black and brown acoustic guitar. I then walk to the pet aisle. Siren probably needs more food for her dolphin. I grab a big thing of tropical fish food. Her dolphin loves it, but she loves fish more. I walk to the shelves and find some sardines. It'll have to do. I grab all 7 cans and put them in my bag. I walk over to the food aisle and start to put all of the food that's still good in my bag. I walk over to the book aisle and start to grab some books. By the time I'm done, my bag is almost full. I feel a hand on my waist. I guessed that it was Harry and turned around. But what I saw wasn't Harry. It was a walker. I screamed and dropped my bag and immediately pulled out my sword. I try to slice its head off, but he pushes me, making my sword slide across the floor. A few more appear, and I'm surrounded. My bag and sword are both out of my reach. "Fuck. Somebody, help me." I scream. The walkers start moving closer and more are appearing. Nobody comes to my rescue. I guess this is it. I'm going to die, aren't I? "Goodbye mom. Goodbye Delilah. Goodbye Siren. Goodbye Harry. Don't worry about me. I'll be in a happier place. Away from this world. Just forget about me and try to make your way through this. Stay safe. For me. Please. I love you all." I cry. The walkers keep getting closer and closer. And still, nobody is going to rescue me.
