"I-I can't sleep." Liam said from the doorway.

"Why don't we go sit on the couch and talk for a bit." I told him.

I got up out of bed and walked towards him. Liam looked so upset and terrified. I gently grabbed his arm and walked down the hall.

"Stop." Liam said stern.

"What's wrong." I asked him.

"If I were y-you I would shoot m-me now." Liam said threw sobs.

"What are you talking about." I said cautiously.

"I-I was b-b-bit." Liam said breaking out crying.

I stared at him. Was he telling the truth? I looked at his arm and saw the gash. How could I not see that before?

"JACK!" I screamed.

Jack came running out of his room. He looked terrified, probably because I screamed for him.

"What's wrong!" Jack said panicking.

"Liam was bit." I said.

Liam started crying again. I couldn't kill the poor kid, could I?

"Just k-kill me, PLEASE." Liam pleaded.

I looked at him ready to burst out crying myself. The poor kid was so terrified.

Jack grabbed the gun and put it up to Liam's head.

"I'm so s-sorry." Liam sobbed.

"So am I." I said looking at him.

Jack pulled the trigger and shot him. Blood splattered all over the place, the kid fell to the ground lifeless.

Everyone came running out of the rooms. I turned and pulled Sara into a big hug, I started bawling hard.

"What happened?" Taylor asked looking at the lifeless boy.

"He was bit." Jack said resting the gun.
