Surviving Zombie Apocalypse with BTS [RM]

Chapter 4

NJ slowly took the album away from me and his face was full of sorrow while he stared at it.

"I'm sorry I didn't recognise you. I don't really listen to whatever genre you're in." I apologized.

"It's KPOP. Well...it doesn't matter now. Nobody gives a shit about it anymore." He admitted sadly.

I gasped. "You just swear! An idol just swear!"

Sensing no response from him, I shrugged in embarrassment. "Hey...it's a joke ok? I'm just trying to perk up the mood..."

"To be honest, I was on tour when all of these happened. Just an hour before our concert begun, a staff rushed in to our dressing room. She had blood all over and the bones on her right arm could be seen. It was a traumatic sight and we had to get away from the scene quickly. We cancelled the concert at the very last minute and ran out of the dome."

"When we were outside, tons of fans were screaming for us with excitement. But we just had to leave them behind..." NJ choked on his word and a tear could be seen at the corner of his eyes. However, he was controlling whatever emotions he was dealing with inside.

Astonished by my own actions, I took the album from the rack and placed it in my bag.

"Come on." I touched NJ's shoulders as I tried to encouraged him.

We finally got in to the 7-Eleven across the street while dealing with about ten zombies along the way. The store was already ransacked like any other place out there. Empty cans of food and drinks scattered across the dirty floor, shelves fallen or flipped like nobody's business. Even the staff's storeroom and storage were already ransacked.

"Just get whatever's left and meet the guys back at the roof." I told NJ and we started our job.

I managed to collect a few snacks and drinks, some half opened but still edible. Collected a few packs of cigarettes for the guys back in camp.

"What you get that for?" NJ was looking at me suspiciously as I took the remaining condoms at the counter.

"Er...my friend back at the camp told me to get it." God damn it! I was really sneaky too but yet NJ SAW me. I felt ridiculously shy and quickly walked away. Only to be attacked by a zombie that was waiting right outside the entrance door.

The zombie pinned me down on the ground while I was not alert and I screamed as it aimed its rusty dead mouth at me.

"Get off me!" I yelped.

"Emily!" NJ shouted.

I closed my eyes waiting for the worst as the zombie drew closer towards me. A loud cracking sound could be heard and the zombie was thrown off me. I opened my eyes in relief and NJ's face was right at mine.

"Are you alright?" He asked in concern.

I couldn't look away from him. Involuntarily, I reached out my arms towards him and embraced him tightly.

"I thought I was gonna die!" I cried aloud.

I felt his hand stroking the back of my head, and he patted my back as he calmed me down.

"It's ok...everything's fine. I'll protect you." His soothing voice kept whispering to my ears as I slowly relaxed.
