(This chapter is a immediate continuation of the last one)

*LIAMS POV*

I look to Bec after Grace slams the door. She looks hurt and there are tears in her eyes and running down her perfect face. I bring her in for a hug and I can feel her sobbing into my chest.

"It's okay," I sooth her, "It's okay."

She continues to cry so I lift up her chin and kiss her. Tears falling down both of our faces because it hurts me to see her this way and if I could take away all the pain she is feeling I would. But the world doesn't work that way and I can't. All I can do is be here for her, so I am.

*NADIAS POV*

"Got everything?" Zayn whispers so Niall and she nods. We begin walking back to the cabin which is about a block away. It's a long walk and the bags are very heavy but we have to keep going before the sun sets and we're left in the dark.

"So what's up with you and Grace?" I ask, wiggling my eyebrows suggestively. Zayn sighs.

"Nothing." He replies, looking upset.

"Well, do you want something to be happening?" Niall asks him. He looks to me and back to the ground and nods quietly and slowly.

"I really do." Zayn says, "She's basically amazing. Every time I see her she makes me smile. It's been hell without her."

"Then what the heck are you waiting for, Zayn?" Niall exclaims, "You like her she likes you, it's the end of the world as we know it just have a little fucking fun, god," Zayn and I laugh at Niall's frustration as he adjusts the backpack on his back.

"He's right though," I say, looking to Zayn and then Niall, "If you have feelings for someone, you should tell them, before it's too late."

"But seriously did you guys do the do?" Niall asks hesitantly, changing the subject and I let my eyes fall to the ground.

"What?" Zayn replies, incredulously.

"You know," Niall says, "Did you guys bang?"

"Oh," Zayn replies, "Yeah heaps of times." He says bluntly and we all look at eachother awkwardly.

"Okay.." I say, moving on, "We should probably- NIALL BEHIND YOU!" I look to the limping Zombie about to reach him.

It all seems to be in slow motion. Zayn wasn't paying attention. Niall wasn't either. I am the only one awake and aware. I see the zombie moving towards him and I push him out of the way, readying my gun. I pull the trigger and wait for the loud sound to alert people and flesh eaters towards us. But nothing happens. The gun doesn't shoot. The gun has no bullets. The zombie is still making it's way towards me and I all I can do is try to run back but my feet fail me.

This is how I'm going to die, isn't it?

I keep moving back and bump into another figure. Thank god it must be Niall or Zayn, they can help me.

I look up and I feel my heart literally freeze. We are being surrounded by Zombies. Zayn and Niall are busy killing Zombies and don't see that I am in need, until I yell and Niall looks over to me, running as fast as he can. But it's too late. I can already feel dizziness taking over me as my arm bleeds from the scratch of a Zombie.

My head hits the floor but the fowl smelling Zombies aren't here anymore. I can only see Niall and Zayn.

"Come on we have to go!" Zayn yells, trying to help me up. I look to my arm and their eyes go wide. There's a long, messy cut where a Zombie was scratching relentlessly at it until I kicked it off. Now I'm surrounded in a pool of blood.

"She's fine. N-Nadia you're fine, lets go," Niall says, avoiding my eyes. He goes to cover up my cut and stop the bleeding but Zayn stops him.

"Don't." He says and I can already feel myself tearing up and my body going paralysed, "You'll get infected too."

Niall shakes Zayns hand off of him and goes towards me.

"D-Don't, Ni-iall," I squeeze these words from my mouth which seems to be locked. He moves his hand away and gets up rapidly, squeezing his eyes shut and looking to the grey, cloudy, sky.

"Nadia," Zayn says, "We have..we have to leave," But this time I know what he means. My legs and arms are numb and my head is dizzy and sweat covers my whole body but I know what he means. They're leaving without me. They're going to go back to the cabin and have to tell everyone that I didn't make it. But there's one thing they have to do first.

"Zayn! There are more Zombies," Niall yells, trying to wipe away tears. He kicks one to the ground and stops on it's head a few times, blood spurting everywhere, but the Zombie is dead.

"J-Just get it o-over with." I say, my eyes going blurry with tears. Zayn let's tears fall where they may as he grabs his gun and raises it with shaky hands towards my head. This is the only way I won't return as a Zombie. It makes sense too, if we kill zombies by head shots or by ruining the brain they die and stay dead. I want to stay dead.

"Wait," Niall says, "Let me do it." Niall takes the gun as Zayn is taking a long time to shoot. Nialls hands are just as shaky and his eyes are just as wet. Before he raises the gun he moves my hands in a cross position, without touching the infected wound.

"We'll miss you," Niall says, "I know everyone back home will. I'll tell them what you did today, how to saved my life. I won't let them forget how amazing you are." He rests his head on my forehead and the tears keep coming from all three of us. Zayn is in the background, standing there wiping his eyes.

"Goodbye, Nadia," Niall says, moving back slowly and holding up the shaky gun. He gives one last salute by nodding his head. Then I hear a deafening sound before---
