The Zombies Over There

It Was On Purpose

Jay's POV
11:00 Am Thursday December 5th

I felt horrible. My head throbbed and my throat burned. I had my jacket on and Lewis' jacket around me, I pull it closer. I was freezing, shaking and shivering.
"Doing alright?" Cameron asks, rubbing my back. I shake my head, coughing. He spins me toward him and kisses me, and I kiss back. We do this for a few seconds until Cameron gets pulled away by Lewis,
"You can't kiss her! You'll get sick! And we can't have two sick people!" He snaps. I flinch and take a step back, Cameron grunts.
"I don't fucking care" he says, cracking his knuckles.
"Guys!" Sam yells, we all spin around and see a small hoard of zombies. Maybe seven. I go to grab my axe but Cameron pushes me to the side, I stumble and fall into the snow with a grunt. The boys grab their guns while Sam runs over to me,
"Are you okay?!" She asks. I nod fast and hand her my axe, she takes it and runs toward the hoard. Once the gun shots start I close my eyes, flinching at each noise. Than I hear a gun shot followed by a yell, I open my eyes and watch Lewis collapse. Cameron's eyes widen and Sam shouts, taking out the last zombie. I stumble to my feet and run over to Lewis. He had been shot in the back, I help him sit up. He covers his mouth and lets out whines.
"Cameron!" Sam snaps, ripping the gun out of his hands.
"I didn't do it on purpose, he got in my way!" Cameron protested, looking at me for reassurance. I look away. I put my hand over the wound to stop the bleeding.
"We have to get somewhere to fix him" I say, coughing.
"You can't be out here any longer either" Sam says, helping me stand up. Sam and I help Lewis up and help him walk, we go for a little further before my legs give in. I stumble and Lewis pulls away,
"You can't carry me" he grunted. I glance at Cameron who sighs and takes my place. We walk for 5 minutes before reaching an open house, we get in and lock the doors. Cameron quickly checks the place, while Sam and I get Lewis into a bed.
"I don't know how to fix gun shot wounds.." I mumble, Sam looks at me,
"I do" she says. I reach into my bag and hand her bandages, peroxide and an extra shirt.
"We're all clear" Cameron says, peaking in.
"We need to talk" I growl, looking at him. He sighs and walks out,
"Can you go look for tweezers?" Sam asks. I nod and go looking for the bathroom. Once I find it, I dig through the drawers until i find tweezers. I bolt back to the bedroom and hand them to Sam,
"Thanks" she says. I nod and carefully hug Lewis, he rests his head on my shoulder.
"Sam, please don't kill him" I cough out,
"Deal" she says. I kiss Lewis' head and leave, closing the door behind me. I glance at myself in the hallway mirror and sigh, under my eyes were dark, and I looked more pale than usual, except for my nose and around my eyes, which were red. I sigh and head into the kitchen, where Cameron was sitting. I sit by him,
"Did you do it on purpose..?" I ask.
