As I awoke to the sun in my face, the events from past days flooded into my mind. I panic and sit up fast, shaking the water bed. My heart is racing as I starts to calm down. I breathe slowly in and out, in and out. I walk to the master bathroom and strip down and get in the bathtub. I turn on the water, and take a nice, cold long bath. In the middle of scrubbing off the dirt and grime covering me, Kyle knocks on the open door and waits for my answer. I turn over so he could only see my back.

"Yes?" I call out

"I made breakfast. Want me to save any?" Kyle smacks his face and blushes. "Sorry, of corse you do."

"Its okay Kyle, thanks." I say.

After he left I continued cleaning myself and relaxed. After a while I got out and wrapped a towel around myself and dried my hair. I tied the towel secure with my hairband and walked to the kitchen. Kyle was in the kitchen eating some eggs. Wait. Eggs?!? Cooked eggs?!!? He offers me some and saw the look on my face.

He points up the roof and says with a mouthful of eggs: "Solar panels."

I shook my head, sat down and started eating. The towel started slipping and I grabbed it and retired it. I go back to the bedroom and open the closet. I grab jeans, a blouse, and undergarments. I change into them and lay on the bed. I grab a book and start reading. I'm halfway through To Kill A Mocking Bird when I hear a large crash come from the front door. I hear Klye shout that we should leave and I grab my bag, the book, and a few other things. I leave my shotgun and open the closet. I grab the handgun and some ammo and leave. I race to the front door to find Kyle holding back a couple of blood suckers.

"Shit Kyle where'd they all come from?" I yell over the screeching from the door.

"I don't know, but kill them Cat!" He shouts back.

I aim and fire multiple times at all of them. Once they're all dead I grab Kyle in a hug.

"You okay?" I queitly quietly asked.

"'Corse Cat." He leans his head in and tries to kiss me.

I'm completely oblivious to it, and turn my head and break away from the hug.

We walk together out of the house and head west. We talk about stupid things until we cannot talk any more.

We walk and walk till the sunset comes for the night. We break into another house and sleep on the couch... together. I smile and drift off to sleep.
