Zack POV.

I've been awake for awhile. I woke up when the sun just started shining. It was a beautiful sight. But that was hours ago and now I'm bored and kind of hungry.

Yesterday Keagan come upstairs to give me my food. But he didn't walk away after giving it, like I expected, no Keagan stayed and even fed me in the beginning!

He blew on my soup and then fed me while holding eye contact and a gay boy can only take that much!

So I've been having some pretty nice dreams tonight. I'll spare you the details but let's say it was really hot.

I heard some noise in the other bedrooms so I guess one of them is awake. If they are I hope they bring me food. The soup Kaitly made was heaven!!

Their was a knock on the door before it opened. It was Kaitly.

"Hey how are you?"

"I'm fine just a little dizzy."

Even though I've been awake for a long time my voice was still hoarse. I wonder what Keagans voice sounds like in the morning.

It'd be really hot and sexy. I want to hear it I really do. Or how it sounds during se-

"How did you sleep?"

Damn really? I was getting to the good part!

"I slept well and you?"

She smiled at that. It was a sad smile.

"I slept really well. I haven't slept in a bed for years.."

I didn't know how to reply so I kept quiet. I gave her small smile.

"Anyways are you hungry?"

Yes! The question I was waiting for!

"Yes! Is there any chicken soup left? Your cooking is amazing!"

Ahw she blushed. Cute.

"T-thank you. I'm glad you liked it. There is some left should I warm it up for you?"

She had a really small and shy voice while saying that. And she's blushing.

"I would love it! Thank you!"

She gave a small nod and walked out of the room closing the door behind her.

Keagan is probably still sleeping. We were up pretty late. We talked a lot, about nothing really. It was relaxing.

For the first time since this whole thing started I finally felt safe.

I sat there for awhile just doing nothing, when Kaitly walked in. With a steaming cup of soup. Yes!

"Thank you!!"

She chuckled and said,
"No problem. I hope you enjoy it! I'll be downstairs if you need me."

With that she turned around and walked towards the door.

"Wait! Is uh is Keagan still asleep?"

She didn't even turn around to face me and opened the door before answering.

"Yeah he is. Don't worry lover boy."

With that she walked out. Lover boy? Really? She could not pick a better nickname for me? I never even had a crush on anyone, so why lover boy? I don't know how to flirt in gay.

I know it's really stereotypical but women, they can cook better then anyone! I'm glad she's her. I really like this. I don't know how it's different from my cooking but it tastes like my moms. Tasted like home you know?

I think only women can do that. But then again in the last 5 years or so I was the only one cooking, I am not good at it. At all.

I once burned my kitchen at home. And no it was not while making cookies or anything like that. No I was boiling water.

Yes water. You read it right. I boiled water and the kitchen was suddenly red and orange and my mom was screaming, dad was calling and I was being pulled out of the kitchen.

After that day I wasn't allowed in the kitchen for 2 months and after that only with supervision from one of my parents.

Good memories.

They're gone now though. Killed. And not even by the monsters. Nooo they were killed my a human that way the human could protect itself against the monsters.

Jup they were used as bate. In front of my eyes. I was only 13 at the time, monsters existed for one year. I even knew the person. It was my uncle.

He killed my parents then threw them at the monsters. Unfortunately for him and fortunately for me, monsters don't care about dead people. They just stepped over it and bit my uncle.

I had enough time to run away.

Though I'm not sure if I should be happy about that. If I'd die then I wouldn't be in this mess. But that's the easy way out. I want to fight.

I heard some shuffling in what I believe is Keagans room. He's awake I guess.

I think today is going to be a boring one. I can't do anything since I'm sick and tired. I still want to talk about the fence with Keagan and Kaitly. It needs to be fixed but I don't think it's a smart idea to do it now.

My speculations about Keagan being a wake were true. He slowly opened the door and peeked inside.

"Your awake."

"Yeah for awhile now."

"How are you feeling?"

"A little dizzy but way better then yesterday."

"That's good to hear. You look better to. More color in you face. You look more alive."

He chuckled at the end of his sentence. It was cute.

"Thanks I guess. I think I'll be better by tomorrow so we can fix the fence."

"You sure that's not to late?"

"I'm not sure but I don't think it's a good idea fixing it now with either 2 people of 3 but I don't think I'm up for that. Not yet at least."

"Yeah your probably right. I'm going downstairs to eat I'll check on you later Kay?"

"Mhh sure see you later."

With that he walked towards the door, opens it, walked out and closed it. It's silent in the house.

The only thing you can hear are Keagans footsteps. It's been quiet in general lately. Not a lot of attacks and things like that. It's suspicious.

I like it since it's peaceful but I hate it since it's kinda like the silence before the storm. And I'm not looking forward to the storm.

We better fix these fences as soon as I get out of this bed.
