"Mom, uh, I know everythings messed up right now. But i'm not coming home for a while. I found friends to stay with, and I just need to get away. It's okay though, I mean it's not like you're ever at home anyways, you won't even notice I am gone," I say as I watch Alan and Austin walk out the store. "Stay safe," I whisper as I hang up the voicemail. Yes. We were having problems, I hope she understands. And I hope she stays safe. 

Austin opens the car door and tosses me a bottle of frappucino. Alan tosses me a tiny bag of mini oreos. "Thank you," I say. They load the rest of the stuff into the back, and start driving away. Everything is extra quiet. It's awkward.. Very awkward. "What's up?" I say. No one replies. "You two are way to quiet." Austin says, "We just heard some stuff, about the Zombie Virus," "Zv," I correct. "Uh, yes, the zv. It's spreading quickly, and it's coming here." Both Alan and Austin look worried. "Oh," I say. "It's okay though, Austin, we have been planning this, we are finally going to get a chance to show our survival skills," Says Alan. "Yeah, I just hope we make it," says Austin. He keeps driving. After about 30 minutes of driving Austin slows down, and he goes into some foresty place. Trees everywhere. He parks the car by a tree. And no one says anything for a while. Alan finally gets out of the car and starts unloading what they had bought. I decided to help out. 

I went to the back and saw they had guns, knives, swords, energy drinks, respirators, duct tape, radios, water, adrenaline, a whole fucking bunch of food, and more. I just realized I do not want to help anymore. I guess I have to though. "Jessica," says Alan as he sees me pick up the energy drinks. "Yes?" I reply. "I think you can just head over to the house," He hands me a map,"When you get there, yell out 'Vic's hair is beautiful, but not as beautiful as Squidgy!', make sure you say this. If you don't... You'll get shot." Vic.. As in.. Vic Fuentes? Oh my fuck! I am going to meet Vic Fuentes! Victor Vincent Fuentes! I notice Alan staring at me. "Yes?" I say. "Yes. You're going to meet Vic, now walk along!" he says. 

I follow directions on the map, I keep going, trees, trees, trees are all I see. Ughh. I am tired. I am almost there. I take a sip of the Monster I took from the back of the car. Almost. I see a tree house. This is the coolest fucking tree house ever. Damn. I want one of these. Oh. I forgot. "Vic's hair is beautiful!" I yell. Someone looks out the tree house window. It's Vic. He looks at me and smiles. Oh my fuck ima die. He starts coming down the stairs to the tree house and I continue, "But not as beautiful as Squidgy!" Vic's face. Oh gosh, he looks like he wants to shoot me. He just looks at me, makes the most adorable face, and flips me off. That fag. 

"Did Alan tell you to say that?" He asks. "Yeah," I reply. "I don't like him, I might just end up shooting him instead of Zombies," says Vic. "Oh I never asked your name? I'm Vic," he says, "I think you should know that already." "My name is Jessica," I say. As Vics about to speak, I hear another voice. "Who is Vic talking to?" it's coming from the tree house. I look up. I see Jaime Preciado and Luke Hemmings. Oh my fuck. Yup. I am pretty sure I am dreaming. Or I am just fucking crazy, or both. 

"I think it's Vics Girlfriend!" says Jaime. "Hi Vics Girlfriend!" yells Luke. I am going to die. I look at Vic, he's turning red. Omf.
