Run with me

"Why should I go with you?" I asked as I circled the mysterious boy.

"Because I can protect you. I can protect you way more than anyone else in this zombie town."

"And why should I trust you?"

"Because I Love you."

I looked at him in disbelief. "How could anyone ever love me?"

He looked me straight into the eyes, and stayed silent.

Okay, maybe I should explain this now. My name is Legend, and I'm one of the only humans that have survived the Zombie Apocalypse. I met a boy on the street named Axel, but I'm not sure that I can trust him. The entire world has been infected by a "medicine" that was created and accidentally let out called Zylotine. The science corporation was trying to find a cure for cancer but instead let out a deadly medicine. This particular medicine causes you to not have any idea what is going on, and you start to kill the things around you, infecting them. I was one of the only people who knew about it in advance because my father works for the science corporation. Therefore I was ready for survival. I am not happy about it, but I was close to death. A zombie scratched me and I didn't know if I was going to be infected or not, but so far it was a no. Axel repeatedly tries to get me to come with him, but how do I know that he wasn't scratched too? If he was we would kill one another. Axel has been following me since I left America. I came from America to London because London most likely had a little while before it was infected as badly as America. But Axel was following me, I wanted to trust him, but my paranoia was stopping that. Axel is very attractive, so I was very tempted to run with him to find whatever sanctuary he was planning on going, but then my brain kicked in and changed all of that emotion.
