My Friends And The Zombie Apocalypse.

Derrick's Group

"Jesus. He's giant!" Lisa stares at the bear in front of her. The bear, a large furry creature with long sharp claws, yawns at her approach, apparently comfortable with humans. "Yeah, he's a fatty. I spoil him. We found a giant box of Snickers, and even though I didn't know if it was healthy or not, I fed him the whole box," says John. "Wow. You guys got lucky. I'd be lucky to find a Butterfingers bar," says Eli.

"Hey! John!" A man runs down the hall, wearing a gray shirt with a picture of a dog on it, most likely a shirt found in the building. He runs to John, stares at us in confusion, then gives John a look that kinda says who the fuck are these guys. As John starts to introduce us, Lisa stares into space, obviously thinking of other things.

"And this motherfucker here is Derrick, one of my best pals. Plus, he also helped with getting everyone else here safely," John says to the man in the gray shirt. The man nods and introduces himself.

"Hi, my name is Jack. Um, I was a factory worker nearby and I was locked in. This group took me in. It's a pleasure to meet you all," he turns and walks away. Then he turns back around as if he had forgotten what he had to say and he just remembered. "Oh yes. Your friend, June? Is that her name? She wanted to see you guys. I'm warning you though, she thinks she's not gonna make it, so she's a little on edge."

"Well, is she going to make it," I stare at his face while I utter the words. He smiles and says, "Of course. We have an amazing surgeon. His name is Ryan. It's funny cause his name is Ryan and he acts like Ryan Reynolds." He looks across the room, towards Lisa. Then he stares back at me. "Well. Come on."

We rush down the hall, eager to see if they've fixed her wound. I look through the countless rooms, most of them bare and white. At the end of the hall, we find the room with her in it. Her shoulder is patched and she smiles as we walk in.

We all hug her, glad to see her okay. She continues to smile as the nurse came in. My eyes look towards the nurse.

She was beautiful. Her hair was a blond color and her eyes were brown. I don't know what it really was about her, but she was beautiful. "Damn it, Derrick. How the fuck can you look at a girl this way when you lost Ivy like a fucking week ago," my mind says. And somehow I feel like my mind is right. But she was an angel.

"Hi. My name is Brittany. I'm Ryan's assistant," says the beautiful nurse. She smiles at me and I feel my knees wobble. I get the stomach butterflies. Her smile makes me blush and I walk out of the room. John steps out too.

"What was that about?" He looks at me questioningly. "That girl, Brittany, she..... She's beautiful. Is she seeing anyone?" I say before I can stop myself. He smiles and elbows me in the arm.

"No, actually. She's single. And very lonely. The surgeon flirts with her a lot though." Still blushing, I walk back in the room to thank Brittany.

"Hey, Brittany. I just wanted to say thank you, for saving June. She's like a sister to me." She looks at me and says, "I was just doing my job."

John walks back in and winks at me. Then he walks over to Brittany and says, "He likes you. He said you were beautiful and-" I punch him in the gut, hard. He makes a wheezing noise and says, "Worth it."

Brittany blushes at me and smiles. "You know, I kinda like you too. So, if you wanted to, I'd like being your girlfriend." I smile so big and John laughs and says, "Lovebirds!"

We smile together and I look to June. She starts clapping and smiling and giggling. We're all happy. And then Jack runs in with news.

"A man just came in with a knife, threatening to kill us. I need backup." Jack starts running out the door and I follow.

We run out to a yard with barricades and animal cages. I watch carefully, waiting for something, anything to happen. And then I see him.

Micheal is standing there with handcuffs on, screaming at the people holding him down. He keeps screaming until they stick a needle through his neck and inject a dark blue liquid. He passes out and I run to him.

"That's my brother, you dumb fucks!" I scream at them. They fucked with the wrong person.
