P.j's P.O.V:

"Why aren't you dead?"

The question hangs in the air and the moment he says it his face scrunches up," wow, never thought I would be asking someone that."

He lets out an awkward chuckle and averts his eyes. At this point I didn't need a mirror to know how unimpressed I looked.

He runs a hand through his hair as my mind begins to wonder. Why aren't I dead? Why would he ask that, did he try to kill me in my sleep or something. I guess that would explain the extra restraints , the moment that thought surfaces, rage runs through me. " You tried to kill me?!"

His face morphs into one of shock and his hands flail around wildly. " NO! Not that!! It's j-just that I......," he pauses and takes a deep breath," sawbloodinyourmouthandithoughtyouwouldbecomrarotter."

It took me awhile to translate what he said but the moment his words registered in my mind, my blood ran cold.

"N-no! If I was a rotter would I be talking to you?!"

I curse at my stutter and just pray he didn't notice it. "That's what's confusing me, why aren't you a rotter, who's blood is that?" My mind runs blank.

Just my luck, first person I meet in while and he isn't a complete fucking idiot, sort of.

After a few minutes I snap back," it's my blood asshole." He leans back slightly at glares at me, without hesitation I glare back. " show me the injury?"

"What"

He lets out a sigh ," if it's your blood, show me the injury."

This is when my mind really draws a blank, it's only now that I realise that this guy mentally and physically, trapped me in a corner. At least, there is one way I could get out.

Tell him the truth.

With no options left I let out groan,"fine! You got me!"

This seems to pique his interest and he crawls right up to my face , eyes dancing with victory. As much as I don't want to tell this guy, I couldn't wait to wipe that smug look of his face when he finds out.

" so, tell me the truth then"

I feel a small smirk on my face and his , surprisingly, grows bigger. " you already know the truth dumbass"

Confusion soon washes over his face," what do you mean?" I let out a chuckle at his stupidity , "I'm dead dumbass, you literally said it yourself."

He chuckled slightly and leans back again. Wait for it, " haha very funny."

Wait for it, " now tell me the real truth..." he seems to stare at my unmoving face. Soon after his face turns pale and he scrambles away to the other side of the tree. Bingo .

"HOLY SHIT , GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM ME!!" I wince at his loud tone," dude I would fucking love to but," I nod at the restraints," it seems like that isn't an option for me."

This seems to calm him down but not long after the question is asked," how?"

He didn't need to elaborate because I already knew what he meant, I wasn't exactly your ordinary rotter as you guessed. At this point, I'm not even sure of what I am, but I'm glad I still know who I am.

" why would I know?" It took him a moment to control his breathing."because your....you..."

Ha there it is again, the same old question I ask myself every day, but now I wonder, do I also sound as mentally handicapped as he does when saying that.

"Hey!"

"....I said that at loud didn't I "

"Yeah you did! Call me dumb all you want ! At least I'm not some dead kid who doesn't even know what he is!"

Silence

Like clockwork I immediately reverted back to my old self, my head facing the ground and my whole posture slouched . It was like these three years had finally caught up with me and all my pent up frustration was forcing itself out of me in the form of hot tears.

The worst thing is that.... I agree with him.

What the fuck am I ?!

Coltons p.O.V:

The moment that sentence left my mouth I regretted it. What I expected was for him to go bat shit crazy and attempt to bite my face of. What I didn't expect was for him to... give up.

Here I sat , looking down on a... boy, who is clearly struggling. His whole form shrunk in on itself and the restraints added to this illusion. He looked so...fragile.

So of course I did what any sane person would do and leave the r-rotted..in the same position and haul my ass out of there.

But I didn't.

No. In fact, what I did was the complete opposite, I reached over and pulled his trembling frame close to me and just held him. At first he froze up , and so did I ,(I wasn't really ready to become zombie chow anytime soon). Yet instead this kid continues to prove me wrong and snuggles up to me.

Just as my shock wore of and my shoulders began to relax that's when I heard it, it was very quiet but still there, I looked down to see him dozed of and leaned down to press my ear against his chest. Soon after I found my self grinning like Cheshire Cat, he was purring.

I chuckle and shake my head slightly, it was then I began to notice just how tight I made these restraints, within no time they were of and I began to doze of next to a purring dead kid.

Well this is gonna be one hell of a ride.
